Lattice offers a big data analytics platform which provides users with intelligent sales targeting, combining internal and external date with proprietary data the company has collected; talking points; and highly specific sales campaigns known as plays, according to ZDNet's Paul Greenberg.[8]

Lattice has more than 65,000 active sales and marketing professionals using its product from companies including Dell, HP and Microsoft.[9] In April 2013, Lattice was named a "Cool Vendor" by Gartner, in its report on CRM and sales technology.[10]
