15Five vs Deputy FAQ
- Which one is cheaper?
- 15Five starts lower at $4/mo, compared to $5/mo for Deputy.
- Can I use either one for free?
- Neither has a free plan. But Deputy offers a free trial.
- How do they charge?
- Both use a per-seat model, so the comparison is straightforward — it comes down to features and limits at each price point.
- Which one is a better deal?
- Depends on what you need. 15Five: They're mid-market priced — not trying to undercut Lattice or Culture Amp, but not charging enterprise rates either. At $16 all-in, they're competitive against Lattice's ~$11–17 range and positioned as a more integrated alternative to buying separate engagement and performance tools from different vendors. Deputy: At $5–$9/user, Deputy sits in the budget-to-mid tier of workforce management tools, undercutting platforms like When I Work or Humanity on base price while targeting shift-heavy industries like hospitality, retail, and healthcare. They're not trying to win enterprise — they're going after the 20–200 employee operator who needs scheduling and compliance without a six-figure contract.
