Pros

  • CompAnalyst's Job Architect revolutionizes job description management. The job description process lives within the software from conception through completion. Workflows allow job descriptions to be edited and reviewed by users and non-users throughout the organization, and you can search for related tasks and responsibilities within Job Architect.
  • Our Customer Success Manager and Professional Services Consultant are responsive, knowledgeable, and available to address our questions and concerns. Having a dedicated team of compensation experts helps us have the best possible experience.
  • As one of the first compensation management software solutions in the market, CompAnalyst excels in managing survey data and market composites. The system is intuitive and user-friendly, and the development team is always looking for new ways to enhance system functionalities.

Cons

  • I would like to see additional customization options in the software's application widgets.
  • Some competitors offer the ability for customers to see real-time pay data from their customer base. This is a feature I would like to see in CompAnalyst.
  • Some user interfaces in the software still need to be updated, but the team is doing an excellent job rolling out new features and updating the tool.

Return on Investment

  • We have eliminated the need to have internal IT support for the tool since CompAnalyst hosts the software.
  • We have reduced the amount of time spent on survey administration since the software can generate survey submissions.
  • By having CompAnalyst, we estimate that we are able to reduce our headcount by .5 FTE.
