Overall Satisfaction with CaptivateIQ

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use CaptivateIQ to calculate my commission before I receive it. It helps me to accurately forecast my budget for the month and allows me to confirm that I am receiving the right amount. It also provides transparency into what parts of my sales are producing how much commission so I don't have to do the calculations myself.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Estimating payouts
Calculating commission by category
Calculating commission accurately
Ability to inquire about commission

Cons

Links to Salesforce?
Calculating commission in regards to goals
Better communication with payroll

Return on Investment

Gaining 2 hours each month calculating commissions
Time savings of 2 hours each month talking with my manager about commission breakdown

Likelihood to Recommend

CaptivateIQ is well suited for areas with multiple factors involved in commission. It breaks down commission by each factor so that I have clear transparency and visibility. It may not be well suited for accurate after-tax forecasting - that part I usually have to guess based on my previous tax rate.
