Culture Amp** - My default pick for most remote teams of ~50-1,000 people. The question bank is research-backed rather than improvised, and the benchmark dataset (1.5B+ data points) is what makes a middling 68% engagement score interpretable. Pricing sits around $0-$9/user/month but entry pricing requires a sales call. It's survey-first, which is what you asked for.\n\n**2. Officevibe** - The right answer if you're under ~50 people and don't want a platform, just a working pulse cadence. ~$5/user/month flat, automated weekly pulses, anonymous feedback, eNPS, and it lives in Slack/Teams - which matters a lot for remote teams, because surveys emailed to distributed people go unanswered. Cheapest credible option.\n\n**3. Lattice** - Choose this if surveys are only half the problem and you also need performance reviews, goals, and 1:1s in one place. Engagement is a paid add-on (~$4/seat/month) on top of a base bundle (~$13/seat/month \"Foundations\"), so $11-$25/user/month all-in. Overkill if you purely want surveys; the best value if your remote team also lacks a review process.\n\n**4.
