OKR Software: What to Look For, and 9 Tools Compared
OKRs (objectives and key results) are simple on paper: a few goals, each with two to five numbers that prove you got there. They usually fail in the weeks after the planning session, when nobody updates the numbers and the goals drift away from the work people actually do. Good OKR software exists to stop that drift.
The market has also moved. Microsoft retired Viva Goals on 31 December 2025, and WorkBoard bought Quantive in 2025 (quantive.com now redirects to workboard.com), so many teams are choosing again. This guide gives you a checklist, then compares nine tools on price, seat minimums and how well goals connect to daily work, with prices checked on each vendor’s own website on 20 October 2026.
A note on fairness: we make PeerBie, which is one of the nine. We say where the others are stronger.
The short answer: which OKR tool fits which team
- A dedicated OKR tool with a free plan for a small team: Perdoo (free up to 5 users).
- Low price per seat, metrics-driven teams: Tability.
- A dedicated tool for a growing company in Europe: Mooncamp (5-user minimum).
- A large enterprise rolling out OKRs top-down: WorkBoard.
- OKRs tied to performance reviews: Lattice or Leapsome.
- Goals inside the tool where the work already happens: Asana (Advanced), ClickUp or PeerBie.
Three kinds of OKR software
- Dedicated OKR tools (Perdoo, Tability, Mooncamp, WorkBoard). They go deepest on the method: strategy maps, KPIs, check-in rituals, coaching. The work itself stays in your project tool, connected by integrations.
- OKRs inside an HR suite (Lattice, Leapsome). Goals sit next to reviews, one-to-ones and engagement surveys. Good when goals feed performance conversations; less so for tracking the work.
- Goals inside a work-management tool (Asana, ClickUp, PeerBie). Key results can move when tasks and projects get done, because they live in the same place. Usually lighter on OKR method.
None of these is “best”. The right one depends on where your team spends its day.
What to look for: a 9-point checklist
- Levels and alignment. Company, department, team and personal goals, with a clear line from each goal to the one above it.
- Real key results. Every key result needs a start value, a target and a unit. If the tool lets you write “Launch the website” as a key result, it will let your OKRs turn into a to-do list.
- Check-ins with confidence. A ten-second update (current number plus how confident you are) beats a monthly status meeting.
- Numbers that update themselves. From linked projects, from CRM or billing data, or from a spreadsheet. Every manual update you remove is one less reason for the OKRs to go stale.
- A link to the actual work. Can you see which projects and tasks are moving each key result? This is where standalone OKR tools depend on integrations.
- Pace, not just progress. “40% done” means little without “week 9 of 13”. Look for tools that warn you when a key result is behind pace.
- Visibility you control. Company goals open by default, with private goals for sensitive plans and personal goals.
- An honest end to the period. Close, carry over or extend unfinished goals, with a short summary of what the quarter achieved.
- Price and minimums. Per-seat price, minimum seats or minimum annual spend, and whether view-only users cost money.

The nine tools, one by one
Perdoo: OKRs and KPIs together
Perdoo combines OKRs with KPI tracking, strategy maps and meeting support, and includes an AI assistant and coach. The free plan covers up to 5 users. Paid plans are priced per user and get cheaper as you add licences: on its calculator’s default of 100 users, Premium is €6.40 and Supreme €8 per user a month billed annually, with view-only licences at €1.50.
Tability: fast check-ins for fast teams
Tability is built around quick, frequent check-ins and connects to Slack, Teams, Jira and Linear. Basic is $6 and Premium $10 per user a month billed yearly ($7 and $12 monthly); data connectors, SSO and its AI assistant are on Premium.
Mooncamp: a configurable goal system
Mooncamp lets you shape the goal system to your company, with goal trees and custom dashboards on the higher plan. Essential is €7 and Professional €10 per user a month billed annually, with a 5-user minimum; Enterprise starts at 100 users.
WorkBoard: enterprise strategy execution
WorkBoard is aimed at large organisations running OKRs and strategy reviews across many business units, and it now includes Quantive. Pricing is by demo and quote. If you were a Quantive customer, expect a migration rather than a renewal.
Lattice: goals next to performance reviews
Lattice sells Goals & OKRs as one product in its people platform, alongside performance reviews, engagement and compensation, with cascading goals and Salesforce and Jira integrations. It is priced per seat by product, with a minimum annual agreement of $4,000.
Leapsome: modular HR with OKRs
Leapsome offers Goals & OKRs as a module (€4 per employee a month) on top of its HR platform, with company, team and individual OKRs, automatic progress tracking and a goal tree.
Asana: goals on the Advanced plan
Asana’s goals connect to projects and portfolios, which is exactly what standalone tools lack. They are on Advanced, at $24.99 per user a month billed annually ($30.49 monthly), and paid seats are sold in blocks once you pass 5 users. More in our guide to Asana alternatives.
ClickUp: goals from the first paid plan
ClickUp includes goals from Core ($9 per user a month billed yearly), alongside tasks, docs, chat and dashboards. Goals are lighter than in a dedicated tool, but cheap if you already run your work in ClickUp.
PeerBie: goals where the work and the conversations are
PeerBie includes Goals & OKRs on every paid plan, from Basic at $10 per user a month billed annually, next to tasks, team chat, a company feed and meetings. The next section explains how it works and where it is weaker.
How Goals & OKRs work in PeerBie
Goals at four levels, with key results that move by themselves
Goals sit at company, department, team or personal level, and each can support a key result one level up. Every key result has a start, a target and a unit, and you choose how it is measured: the owner checks in with the number and a confidence level, a linked project moves it as tasks get done, a workflow counts what reaches a stage (every applicant who gets to Hired, for example), or, on Pro, a connected tool supplies the number. Connected sources include HubSpot, Stripe, Salesforce, Google Sheets or Excel, and Jira (see integrations). PeerBie shows pace, not just progress: “behind pace: 35% at week 9 of 13”. See Goals & OKRs.
Lucy drafts, checks and reports
Lucy, PeerBie’s AI assistant, drafts a goal and measurable key results from one sentence, flags tasks written as results (“Launch the new website” is a task; she suggests the result behind it) and suggests projects to link. Basic includes 20 AI goal drafts a month; Pro adds unlimited drafts, break-down of a company goal across departments and teams, and a one-click goal health check. With the Lucy AI add-on ($20 per user a month on Pro and Enterprise) you also get a Monday brief on what moved and what is at risk, check-ins in chat, and check-ins suggested from meeting notes (see how Lucy handles meetings). Weekly key-result check-ins can also arrive in Slack.
An honest end to every quarter
Goals run by quarter or by year. At the end of a period, PeerBie prepares a close-out: for each unfinished goal you close it, carry it over or extend it, and Lucy writes a summary of what the period achieved. Company, department and team goals are open to everyone by default and can be made private; personal goals are private unless you share them.
Where PeerBie is weaker than dedicated OKR tools (and others)
- No goals on the free plan. Perdoo’s free plan includes OKRs for up to 5 users; PeerBie’s starts on Basic ($10).
- Less OKR method. Dedicated tools go further on strategy maps, KPI libraries and OKR coaching.
- No performance reviews. If you want goals to feed review cycles and compensation, Lattice or Leapsome fit better.
- Connected key results are a Pro feature, and the AI features beyond drafting need the Lucy add-on.
- It is a whole work platform. If you only want an OKR layer on top of the tools you already use, a dedicated tool is cheaper and less to change.
What a 25-person company would pay
List prices billed annually, as of 20 October 2026. The point is not which number is lowest, but what each one replaces.
| Option | Per user / month | Per year (25 users) | What it covers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tability Basic | $6 | $1,800 | OKRs only; work stays in your other tools |
| Mooncamp Essential | €7 | €2,100 | OKRs only |
| ClickUp Core | $9 | $2,700 | Tasks, docs, chat and goals |
| PeerBie Basic | $10 | $3,000 | Tasks, chat, feed, meetings and goals |
| PeerBie Pro | $15 | $4,500 | Adds connected key results, break-down and health check |
| Asana Advanced | $24.99 | $7,497 | Projects, portfolios and goals |
The honest reading: if you already have a project tool you like, a dedicated OKR tool is the cheapest way to add OKRs. If you are also choosing where the work, the chat and the meetings live, a work platform with goals built in can replace two or three subscriptions.
Rolling out OKRs in your first quarter
- Start with two or three company goals, not ten.
- Give each goal two to four key results with a start, a target and a unit. Delete any that are really tasks.
- Let each team set one or two goals that support a company key result.
- Agree on a weekly check-in: one number and a confidence level per key result.
- At the end of the quarter, close, carry over or extend each goal, and write down what you learned before setting the next ones.

Frequently asked questions
What is OKR software?
OKR software helps a company set objectives and measurable key results at company, team and personal level, check in on progress, and see whether the work is moving the numbers. Some tools do only OKRs, some are HR suites with OKRs inside, and some are work-management tools with goals built in.
Do we need OKR software, or is a spreadsheet enough?
For a first quarter with a small team, a spreadsheet is fine. Teams usually move to software when updating numbers by hand becomes a chore, when they want goals linked to the projects that move them, or when more than one level of goals needs to line up.
What replaced Microsoft Viva Goals?
Microsoft retired Viva Goals on 31 December 2025 and advised customers to export their data to a solution of their choice. Former users have moved to dedicated OKR tools such as Perdoo, Tability or Mooncamp, to HR suites such as Lattice or Leapsome, or to work tools with goals built in such as Asana, ClickUp or PeerBie. If check-ins must arrive in a particular chat app, check that before you choose; in PeerBie, weekly key-result check-ins arrive in Slack.
How much does OKR software cost?
Most tools charge per user per month. On 20 October 2026, dedicated tools started around $6 (Tability) or €6–7 (Perdoo, Mooncamp) per user a month billed annually; HR suites such as Lattice have a minimum annual spend; work tools include goals from $9 (ClickUp Core), $10 (PeerBie Basic) or $24.99 (Asana Advanced).
Which PeerBie plans include Goals & OKRs?
Every paid plan. Basic ($10 per user a month billed annually) includes goals at all four levels, key results, check-ins and 20 AI goal drafts a month. Pro ($15) adds unlimited drafts, break-down across teams, the goal health check and key results from connected tools. The free Starter plan does not include goals.
