- Real-time calculations where user enters and system calculates.

Successful 10 year partnership with Varicent
- Varicent has the flexibility to perform any calculations needed for compensation or reporting.
- Varicent has a user friendly web interface for sales reps and leaders.
- Varicent provides many options for importing and exporting data in a variety of formats and from disparate source systems.
- The Document management and acknowledgement module has been challenging to use but has been redesigned for 2024.
- It would be useful to have more features targeting plan modeling, forecasting and what-if scenarios
Onboarding Varicent
- Updated plug and play applications
- Covers all my needs from basic to elaborate plan build capabilities and plan documents
- Yearly summits, regional meetings, and customer service
- If you want something unique added, Varicent asks you to add to their community forum. If enough people want the same option, then they will build it. Otherwise, you have to wait, and it may not get built.
Good data in, good payroll out.
- Accuracy of calculations.
- Ability to 'lock' results used to pay sellers.
- Calculation speed is impressive given the volume of data coming in.
- Visualizations lag behind other 'big data' analytics platforms, but Varicent continuously makes significant improvements.
Varicent not worth the expense or hassle
- Stores historical data
- Fairly customizable in application of various compensation plans
- Design and implementation is horrible
- Customer Service
- Quality Control
- Reporting flexibility
- General ease of use from an administrative standpoint
Overall Varicent Satisfaction
- Very user friendly
- Timely process
- Technology support is exceptional
- Ownership on component builds
- Better understanding of customer needs
- More integrated testing process
Good Value Incentive Compensation System, Highly Customizable!
- I like how clear the table structure can be on the backend.
- I like how customizable the reports can be.
- We have had issues with users making changes while a calculation is running, which results in an error of some sort.
- Varicent has also introduced product updates without warning that negatively impact our system and we did not have time to prepare for that impact.
Varicent Review: Analyst
- It is very flexible when accommodating different calculations and business rules
- The new reporting is sleeker to use and more user friendly
- Admins of the system have an easy time navigating the tool even with minimal technology experience
- SQL is accessed in the settings menu with a few clicks. It would be nice if it were easier to navigate to it
- Portal access can get messy easily. Improving how to set it up would be beneficial
Easy to Develop, Smart and Intuitive Solution
- Designing complex compensation plans
- Implement Approval process
- Automating new Payee onboarding
- Reporting
- Logs
Varicent Boon or Bane?
- ETL Process
- Reduced Calculations Time
- Dashboards
- The effective dated setup within the configuration tables should prompt any issue if the configuration is done incorrectly
- Workflows can be much better. One of the basic things is to reflect the workflow is within the workflow setup so we get to know which workflow is pending
Varicent Does the Job, and Does it Well
- Complete scheduler events
- Allow testing in other environments
- Send and receive files
- Logging and not having a centralized area to view all logs
- Nested items on the UI - have a hard time finding them
- Inability to add code directly
Lots of features but a fairly large learning curve
- It is very flexible
- It allows for interactive feedback from end users
- The UI for admins is poor
- Better detail of what happens when joining data sources to understand why end results are what they are
It is less appropriately suited for very small companies with simple compensation plans. The setup needed for a foundation within the tool is probably not worth the benefit offered by the tool until there is a certain level of complexity or volume
