Varicent SPM is user-friendly and one of the best incentive/compensation tools available in the market. My organization has been using the ICM / SPM tool for more than 5 years, and they have really good feedback on the product. They have been investing heavily in modernizing their tool in a timely manner.

For the use cases we have at the bank, ICM is a perfect solution. For any bank or institution that has similar requirements, ICM would be a perfect solution. But I also think for any use case that has any sort of incentives based on Sales done, this would work amazing, as both Calculations and reports are handled by ICM very well; it's an all-in-one solution, I feel like.

Best suited for sales planning and report generation. Also works well while creating the visualizations, which helps in getting some insights into the sales. Less appropriate for areas other than sales and compensation.

In my opinion, seems to over promise and under deliver. It is very difficult post-implementation to get assistance, and the software is not intuitive enough to operate effectively without ongoing support. We are required to log tickets to Varicent Support, which generally take several weeks to be addressed, and can take months to actually be resolved. We have several high priority issues that were initially raised during implementation and have yet to be addressed more than 6 months post-implementation.

More and Brilliant ways to automate the commission calculation system. Easy-to-use and user-friendly web reports. After we started using Varicent, we can now look after all these tasks from a single tool which saves us abundance of time and energy for other stuff. Management of reports are great and easy.

I would recommend it to those who use it for sales compensation and performance management where the product is constantly developing. Being an "odd duck" by implementing broad compensation, we are not on the strategic roadmap with the features we need.

Varicent grew up as a compensation calculation engine and it certainly excels in that scenario. They have invested heavily in modernization of the user interface for both administrators and end users so that the presentation and user experience are equal to the power of the back end.

Onboarding Varicent

Best suited is if the company hires a developer with Varicent background, otherwise, there are 3rd party companies who can be hired as contractors. This is good for short term, but you want an employee hired as soon as possible to help with the build. Otherwise, the build will take much longer, and you want the developer to be on the beginning part of the build to know the history and know the system.

We have a very challenging environment with how our sales data comes in, and our compensation plans get more complex every year. Varicent worked closely with us to ensure the logic put in place met our needs. They continue to partner with us as we are rolling out more reporting, which our Field really enjoys!

The system is pretty clear and straightforward to understand. The logic and workflows help admins understand the system's scope, which will facilitate the troubleshooting, if required, throughout the day. The daily meetings we have with the Varicent team help clear out any issues we are currently having and allow them to also understand the business needs.

I've found Varicent to be very helpful with the compensation calculations and building our system from the ground up. It does seem like if you have complicated reports though, that might be tough to build from scratch.

Varicent is a good tool for managing a variety of business rules and adapting its calculations to it with and fairly easy-to-use configurator. If the data loads are small to medium this is an ideal tool. When data loads become too large the data loads can take longer and may impact meeting specific timing requirements.

Varicent has made designing complex compensation plans very easy. Using its different modules we were able to implement Approval process, Incentive summaries, automating new Payee onboarding and scheduling different jobs very easily and smoothly.

Varicent Boon or Bane?

Score 5 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
Incentivized
Varicent is better for normal plans for incentive compensation payouts; however, if you have some complex setup for plans or calculation methodology then need to ensure that the configuration is done very carefully. Varicent if properly configured provides meticulous output, especially the credit mapping setup process that is offered by the tool.

Varicent is very well suited to accommodate complicated logic. Because everything is essentially structured as a table, nearly anything you could do in Excel can be done in Varicent.

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

This is a fantastic tool that shows you where you are at, how much you are earning, keeping track of the documents that need to be signed to receive the money, and just very simply making sure your check matches what you are supposed to be getting. I love it!!

Varicent Incentive Compensation Management is a great tool when you are looking for something to deliver detailed sales performance insight to your employees. You have all the data you need at one glance: sales data insight, transaction summary, actual vs target graphs, workflow documents, and payee dashboard, just to name a few.
