We use Spiff to automate commissions and at the same time provide visibility to the users of their commission calculation. The product solves a variety of main problems: (1) Accuracy of the commission calculation, (2) Speed of the commission calculation, (3) Visibility of the commission calculation process. In addition, the use case extends to document managements related to commissions.
  • Automating commission calculation with well-guided formulas and instructions
  • Reporting commission calculations as well as providing visibility to the users on how their commissions were calculated
  • Ability to modify commission metrics / reports
  • Functionality for document senders to see how the document looks like after sending a document
  • Functionality to download data from designer section
  • Functionality to present YTD commission data on the front end for users
Spiff is well suited for a company that has complex commission structure (e.g tier-based + extra kickers) and that is growing. The reason is because its functionalities allow us to create logic or formulas that are quite flexible and able to accommodate any change in the commission calculations and enable admins to filter the data with sets of logic that Spiff feeds from without having to change the data in the original source.

I use Spiff in my organization to help keep track of my commissions from month to month and quarter to quarter. I can see how much I have sold over the course of the year, and determine how much I should be getting paid based on those sales. Honestly, for me it just take the guess work out of how much I'm going to be getting paid in my next pay checks.
  • It syncs with your internal systems to show how much you have sold during the current period.
  • It tells you how much you should expect to get paid based on your sales.
  • It keeps track of how you have performed over the course of the year and tells you when you are in accellerators.
  • It also details your organizations sales rules and payout rules so that you just have one place to go for all questions commission related.
  • I think it would be nice to see how you are performing compared to the rest of your team or region.
  • It would also be nice if you could change the commission periods to be quarterly instead of monthly.
  • It would also be nice to be able to see how you compared to the same time the previous year.
It is really well suited to quickly show you how much you are getting paid on your commissions. I don't know if they offer additional spiff management, for blitz days or anything like that, but that would be cool too. It just makes it a little easier to find out payment amounts and schedules in a singular place.

Sales performance calculation is being measured through Spiff. Sales people with the help of this platform can keep a tab on their performance on regular basis and also they can keep an eye on the incentive / compensation that they may expect towards the end of the quarter. It’s a very transparent way of commission calculation.
  • Sales incentive calculation
  • Account wise report
  • Sync with salesforce
  • Should have month wise visibility of data
Well suited to see the performance executive wise on regular basis. Also the team lead can see the amount of incentive /commission the team members will be receiving.
Correct data related to the number of accounts that have been added to the salesforce in a particular month or quarter can be seen.

We use Spiff to track sales commission. The tool tracks commission from different targets, dependent on job roles.
  • I like that it shows me how much I've made from each deal
  • I can organize deals and commission according to chronology
  • It breaks up commission into different "buckets"
  • It shows me how much I've progress I've made toward my quota
  • The layout of the page is not great. I can't tell where to click to see my commission
  • I can only see commissions from specific months, rather than for an entire quarter
  • The graphics that show your numbers don't always reflect the actual sales that you see when you click into the graphic
My biggest complaint is that I think it's hard to know where to find your information

Spiff provides clear visibility into my monthly commission earnings from sales. Previously it was done via excel spreadsheets, so this is much more user friendly to see the breakdown and be able to have clear visibility into past months commission without searching for previously sent emails.
  • Graphics/images and charts -easy to read
  • User Friendly
  • Navigation to previous months
  • Clean landing page
  • Clearer visibility into which statements have been "paid out" to the employee
  • Anticipated taxes
In my experience with Spiff so far, it has been helpful to see the breakdown of commissions by individual sale. It also easily breaks down subcategories (such as professional services which is a different calculation than SaaS). I love the ability to quickly go back to previous months to be able to cross reference with my own records of what has been recorded within each month.

This is a monthly commissions reporting tool. It automates the commissions process, including seeing past payments, current payments, and potential payments in the future. It allows for easier communication with our commissions department.
  • Automation
  • Ease of use
  • Communication with users
  • Mobile app
  • User interface
  • Guided help
Perfect for those who sell many deals/contracts and need to track them in one place.
Less appropriate for quarterly tracking of less deals

We use Spiff to determine our bonus compensation and calculate our quality and quantity of our work.
  • Lays out details
  • Keeps things organized
  • Makes it quick and easy to view and understand
  • Add a search bar
It is an excellent way to present stats and other information all in one place. I would not say it is appropriate for group viewing.

I use Spiff to monitor and confirm my monthly sales commissions. Spiff helps me stay on track with my monthly quota and how I will be getting paid once my goals are met. I use Spiff to confirm that the goals met align with the amount paid out. I also track how I have improved month over month using the commission trend tool.
  • Tracks commission by clear breakdown
  • Commission trend chart to monitor month over month improvement
  • Very clear total commission earned in quarter
  • Email updates on where I stand commission-wise
Spiff is very user friendly and clearly breaks down monthly commission earnings.

I use Spiff to track sales activity and my commission associated to it. It helps me see an overall view of my goals, where I am year to date, as well as more granular data such as cross sells and new customers acquired.
  • Tracking quotas
  • Breaking down sales metrics in the way they are booked (new, upsell, cross-sell etc)
  • Providing a visual representation of annual goals
  • It would be great if there was some kind of notification feature to enable when you receive a milestone, hit a goal etc
Overall, I think for folks in a commissioned sales role, this tool is quite helpful. It allows you understand if and how you are meeting your monetary goals. If you are not, how can you push yourself to get there and what do the deal sizes need to be in order to get there?

Spiff allows us to see how much we are going to make on commission based on our current KPIS for the month. It provides transparency in what we will receive on our paychecks.
  • Transparency
  • Ease of Use
  • Simple
  • Text Updates
At the end of the month I am always in the dark about how much extra spending money I will have. Spiff solves this because it allows us to see how much money we are going to be making based on our performance.

Spiff helps us manage our commissions process, reporting and reconciliation. Before Spiff, we used a combination of excel, SFDC reports, and Google Sheets. Spiff brings everything together in one platform and has powerful reporting capabilities that helps finance and operations manage our process. The support from Spiff has been top notch and implementation was a breeze.
  • Great UI/UX
  • Awesome reporting
  • Excellent customer service and support
  • very flexible
  • More ad hoc reporting
  • scheduled reporting
  • triggers and automated workflows
Spiff works great as our commission management platform. We have 10-20 sales reps so not sure how it scales beyond that but for us, it works great! Their support staff are super helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend using / implementing Spiff. It has streamlined our commission reporting and made my job easier.

We use Spiff to track sales performances and manage the On Target Earnings of our team, the application is pretty intuitive and user friendly, I love the funny UI and they way you can drill down into the details of your deal/commission related. The integration with Sales Force seems to work pretty well and data are displayed in real time once processed. Overall very satisfied about the tool.
  • On target earnings management for Sales team
  • orchestrate hierarchy
  • connection to crm
  • nothing specific, it can be eventually extended on a Forecast use instead of using another tool for this scope
Perfect for B2B company on the SaaS space

As Spiff user I'm use it to monitor and approve monthly commissions, and despite complex metrics, are presented in a clear view
  • Spiff dashboard usability on mobile is awesome.
  • Intuitive platform that require almost zero training as user
  • On user dashboard isn't easy to land exactly where you need to approve a content.
I've only experience as user, sales that needs to check and approve monthly commissions calculated by our director. I don't know on which other scenario should be used because I don't know how it works it backend

We use Spiff to show commissions of the Sales and Customer Success teams. Sales gets a monthly update in Spiff of their expected commissions, and the CS team gets a quarterly update.
  • Breakdown of commission
  • Showing calculation formulas
  • Showing commissions for non-monthly users
  • Ongoing quarterly calculations
Spiff is great for users who would like to see their monthly commission amounts. The sales team gets an accurate calculation each month of the sales they made and where their commission is coming from that can be verified every month for accuracy. The CS team gets quarterly commissions, and I find it is less helpful because it only calculates at the end of each quarter, rather than updating on an ongoing basis to see what your commission could be if all continues to go well.

Spiff is great to help keep track of bonuses and other non salary pay outs for employees. It is extremely easy to use and makes payroll so much easier for accounting purposes. I highly recommend Spiff for a company that is 50 or more people!
  • separates bonuses to keep straight
  • keeps track of commissions and easy to make changes
  • tracks non salary or commission payouts
  • some way to communicate with accounting on the spiff site
Spiff is great for keeping track of bonuses and commissions for 50+ company but would not be needed for a smaller company in my opinion

Ever had to keep track of your commissions on clunky spreadsheets? are you constantly having to tell ops and finance to fix your commission overview? Spiff gets rid of all confusion by giving you a simple to use clear platform that will give you an accurate breakdown of your deals and the commission you earned for a certain period. The integration with Salesforce makes it super simple sync and talk back and forth giving you and managers all the information you need to make sure you get paid what you are supposed to. It is also a great way to track any accelerators and see how close you are as an org to your revenue goals.
  • Commission breakdown
  • Integration with Salesforce
  • Accelerator tracking
  • Great visual of quota, attainment, any spiffs, and total payment
  • Sometimes deals were hard to filter through. showing all deals as opposed to quarter, month, etc.
  • I can't think of anything else
  • the tool is great
If your organization has any form of sales-assisted team or motion it is key to have a tool like Spiff. It makes it super simple for the entire team to be on the same page and also reduces so many errors that cause disgruntled sales representatives and that is not a good place to be in.

Spiff makes it easy to get our monthly commissions in a timely manner with very little effort involved. It automates all the manual entries we used to make on excel sheets and makes the approval chain much smoother. Approving statements has never been easier with spiff - highly recommend Spiff to any organization with a large sales team.
  • Automates commission totals
  • Fast simple approval
  • Comment for others to see
  • Better interface
  • Update commissions faster (hourly updates)
  • Add a detailed dashboard
Best suited for a well performing teams with an outdated commission payout system. Saves the team from manually paying out each rep every month which can be a very long and tedious process. With a sales team of 30+ reps a tool like Spiff is a must have every month. If you only have a few sales reps then Spiff may not be worth it for you.

Spiff is used by my organization to disburse the sales incentive earned. Earlier the organization was facing challenges as the earlier software couldn't be customized to the sales model my org had in place. Spiff is easily accustomed to our requirements and has made the payroll department's job much easier. Not just that, 3very sales rep is now able to track their earning by simply logging into their profile and monitoring their incentives. Huge difference!!
  • It can be integrated with SalesForce very easily.
  • The opportunities with their incentive values can be monitored on Spiff very easily.
  • Every user has the right to check his or her earning. Historical data can also be checked.
  • A currency converter feature can be included. Since my incentive is calculated in USD but disbursed in INR, it would be more helpful for me to know the conversion rate used.
  • Data export in CSV feature should be included
  • In case of any discrepancy, contact to payroll team feature should be included.
I have already explained how this is helping my org and its employees currently. Transitioning from an earlier model to Spiff this year has been nothing but a blessing.

I use Spiff to easily view my commissions in my sales role. It makes it incredibly easy for me to track in real time what my commissions will be in any given time period. Compared to having to manually calculate pays through a spreadsheet or waiting for updates, it’s a dream. Highly recommend.
  • Helps me understand my commission structure
  • View real time commission
  • Insight into accelerators
I’m a I/C role as a sales person so it’s great for tracking live commissions through the quarter. Which is both motivating and also just practical for planning for next month's pay. I still rely on tools like Salesforce or BoostUp to be able to forecast and track sales.

I use Spiff weekly to check my commissions and monthly to analyze the trend. This helps me understand if I am hitting my team and personal goals. The UI is so easy to manage which makes the level of transparency seem so normal which I know becomes difficult for others to assess when they don't have something like Spiff as a resource. Surprisingly, I found myself using Spiff when I was filing my taxes this year.
  • Transparency: data is digestible
  • Organization: data is accessible and easily located
  • Impactful: data is cherished by many of my colleagues not only ADRs
  • End of Year review? Something like Spotify but that highlights are best weeks or months? That way we can go back and analyze quarter efforts or seasonal changes.
This has proven to be impactful because of how much it is used by my peers. Innovative in its transparency because it makes what used to be stored in HR files very accessible.

We use Spiff in our sales team. It helps us acknowledge how much I am going to make as a salesperson each month. It allows me to plan my personal finances effectively.
  • Tracks my quarterly commissions
  • User-friendly
  • Great customer service
  • Better projections throughout the quarter
  • Being able to really understand how to work back from quarter wins and know when I will get the money
It is really great for a salesperson whose lively hood is all based on commissions. At the end of the quarter, when I am looking at my future budget and trying to plan for how I can spend money in the next few months (i.e., going on trips and having extra spending money), it can be challenging to add it all up because there are different tier percentages. Spiff helps me track that and makes it really easy to put together a budget that will fit my lifestyle.

To track commission payments over varying fiscal periods. I also use the tool to accurately forecast, or determine how much to forecast in any given fiscal period.
  • Includes itemized list of closed accounts
  • Tracks performance over time
  • shows gap to plan
  • Real time metrics via integration with SFDC
  • Spiff does not understand Aviatrix quotas
Great for commission calculations but my company has done a poor job of including quotas. This is not a product issue; just an issue on how we've deployed it.
