## Bettercomp Reviews
  ### 1. Compensation Manager

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sonya E. | Global Compensation Manager- Optimization, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 26, 2024

**What do you like best about Bettercomp?**

The system is easy to use and has a powerful reporting platform.  Thier customer service is outstanding. You also have the ability to map the level of the surveys to your internal jobs. The information can be located very easily with a minimum amount of wait time. The implementation and the ability to use globally was simple. We also love the ability to pull the survey participation directly from the system for our nearly 100 surveys.

**What do you dislike about Bettercomp?**

Not enough system security to segregate access, waiting for ability to customized column headers, and the ability to be able to see when a survey is completly loaded for use into BetterComp using size of file.

**What problems is Bettercomp solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Global access to surveys and market pricing.  The ability to minimized the number of surveys submitted to vendors annually.

**Official Response from Alice Kirchhoff:**

> Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We truly appreciate your feedback and we'll keep you posted on upcoming feature releases that answer those gaps you've identified.

  ### 2. its a good platform

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Satish s. | Recruitment Operations Analyst, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Bettercomp?**

high performance and great features description

**What do you dislike about Bettercomp?**

nothing but the UI and durability of the application should be improvised

**What problems is Bettercomp solving and how is that benefiting you?**

it explains the overview of the bussines across all the 360 degrees

  ### 3. BetterComp isn’t just better – it’s the best!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nikky B. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 27, 2023

**What do you like best about Bettercomp?**

The ease with which you can match or update a match across all pay markets in one step is such a time saver compared to other systems. Implementation was completely painless and we had great support for implementation and our day-to-day needs with a dedicated CSM. There are also lots of reports to choose from and you can even build your own or request new reports from the BetterComp team. They are constantly making updates based on user feedback and are very open to new suggestions.

**What do you dislike about Bettercomp?**

Adding a new job level or job has to be done by upload vs. being able to just add in the tool – it would be nice to be able to just add it instead of uploading. We also have a somewhat complex local grading system in place that BetterComp was able to setup for us but some of the reporting doesn’t quite reflect the local grades yet (they’re working on it already though!)

**What problems is Bettercomp solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Before BetterComp we managed all benchmarking in spreadsheets – very manual and lots of room for errors to be made. Now we spend way less time on data management and more time on analytics and actions based on those analyses. Looking forward to using the salary range modeling feature this year as well since that has been very manual for us in the past.

**Official Response from Alice Kirchhoff:**

> Thank you so much for the fantastic review! And, for giving feedback about how we can improve your experience - we're always striving to get Better for our customers. 

  ### 4. BetterComp Delivers

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jordan C. | Director of Compensation & HRIS, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 02, 2023

**What do you like best about Bettercomp?**

I made the decision to move my company's survey management to BetterComp over a year ago, and the best thing about BetterComp is they delivered what they sold us.  Implementation and migration were straightforward, and they've regularly made updates to unlock new functionality, which my team has enjoyed.

**What do you dislike about Bettercomp?**

There isn't really any dislikes within my team but the closest thing I can think of is during implementation we made a couple of decisions with our set up that we would do differenty now that we know the tool better.

**What problems is Bettercomp solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They are making survey participation and pricing jobs easier, which saves my team time so they can focus on other strategic items.

**Official Response from Alice Kirchhoff:**

> Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience with BetterComp, Jordan! Keep your eyes peeled for even more new functionality over the next few months - we think you're going to love it.

  ### 5. BetterComp makes benchmarking and survey submissions....BETTER!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nicole D. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 25, 2023

**What do you like best about Bettercomp?**

BetterComp has provided us with significant efficiencies in our market pricing and survey submission process. The interface is intuitive, easy to use, and an excellent repository for all things benchmarking. Another key advantage is the magnitude of reports and visual analytics available to you to help understand range progression, outliers, and demographic comparisons to the market and your range structure.

**What do you dislike about Bettercomp?**

I really only have glowing comments about BetterComp. The one thing I would mention is that I would love to have the ability to add a new job level for our structure directly through the tool rather than via upload. I bet that the team already has this on the roadmap....they have been incredibly proactive to engage with clients and assess your needs.

**What problems is Bettercomp solving and how is that benefiting you?**

BetterComp has created a one-stop-shop for benchmarking, allowing our team to collaborate across countries, roles, and job structures. Within the composite function, you can view all your benchmarks in one spot and toggle the analytics you would like to see to ensure the benchmark fits the role. Another key feature of the product is the ability to create draft benchmark roles and play around with the market data cuts to understand the potential cost of a new role. My team also loves the analytics feature of the product. BetterComp provides insightful visuals that allow you to quickly see where there might be a dislocation in your salary structure. The platform has several other helpful reports (range penetration, key trends, YOY analysis, etc). This has saved time on reporting since the system does it with a click of a button!

  ### 6. It's Better with BetterComp!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Evan F. | Director, Human Resources, Insurance, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 07, 2023

**What do you like best about Bettercomp?**

BetterComp has been a great partner for us for five reasons:

1.) Configuration/setup was fast and easy – we were up and running in a few weeks – and most of that was us getting our data in order.

2.) The BetterComp tool is easy to learn and use. The whole team learned quickly.

3.)  We also chose to purchase market data and have been very happy with the data they were able to provide.

4.)  We were assigned a great Customer Experience Manager who has been with us all the way through to answer our questions and set us up.

5.) They have been very open to suggestions about report modifications and future tool enhancements.

We'd select BetterComp again!

**What do you dislike about Bettercomp?**

There is not much to dislike about BetterComp. I look forward to the enhancements they plan to implement to continue to improve the product. We've been very happy.

**What problems is Bettercomp solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Before BetterComp, we used a different compensation management vendor that we weren't fully utilizing. BetterComp solves multiple problems, including tracking survey matches, survey participation, and market pricing in various geographies.

**Official Response from Alice Kirchhoff:**

> Thank you so much for taking the time to give us a review, Evan! Definitely keep us apprised of enhancements that would make market pricing with BetterComp, well, Better.

  ### 7. Market pricing made easy

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Erik  P. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2023

**What do you like best about Bettercomp?**

BetterComp makes market pricing existing and new roles a breeze! My organization has many jobs + locations, and BetterComp offered a solution so we could market price the jobs all at once. Previously, I adjusted the matches for every job + location, which was painful and time consuimng. The market pricing functionality has made market pricing more enjoyable and efficient for my organization.

**What do you dislike about Bettercomp?**

There's nothing to dislike about BetterComp!

**What problems is Bettercomp solving and how is that benefiting you?**

BetterComp's helping my organization improve our market pricing by making it more efficient and enjoyable! Since the market pricing is more efficient, I've been able to focus on other projects/deliverables instead of repetitive tasks.

**Official Response from Alice Kirchhoff:**

> Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, Erik! We're so glad that BetterComp is making market pricing both easier and more enjoyable for you.

  ### 8. Why you should invest in BetterComp!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Trista B. | Director, Compensation

**Reviewed Date:** December 06, 2022

**What do you like best about Bettercomp?**

BetterComp offers an innovative solution for many compensation processes and analytics that every organization is faced with.  As a very large, global organization (>30k) participating in almost 75 salary surveys, BetterComp was the best solution out of many other vendors we demoed.  We found that many of the other vendors have legacy systems that make it difficult to customize the tool.  BetterComp has been built with flexibility in mind and the team works very hard to accommodate customization where possible.  

While we are still in the implementation phase, we have been so impressed by our senior customer experience manager who has walked us through setting up the system step-by-step.  The team has very strong experience working with a variety of systems and tools and the expertise they have makes it easy for us to review the options and select the approach that is best for our organization.

We also enjoy the "customer delight" approach BetterComp uses for system enhancements.  One of the best features we enjoy is being able to suggest ideas that are evaluated and seriously considered to make our lives and those of their other customers better.

**What do you dislike about Bettercomp?**

We have not yet come across any big dislikes about BetterComp.  When we do find little things that we dislike or want changed, BetterComp is there to accept our "customer delight" request and take further action.

**What problems is Bettercomp solving and how is that benefiting you?**

An example is whether or not we are aligned/competitive with the external market and internally as well.  The reporting and analytics of the BetterComp tool are extensive and help to identify and find answers for other business problems.

**Official Response from Alice Kirchhoff:**

> Thanks for such a fantastic review, Trista! We so appreciate customers like you who are able to share ways that we can improve our solution to work better for you. Please, keep your ideas for improvement coming!

**What do you dislike about Bettercomp?**

Nothing!  I love it and look forward to the enhancements that are on its way.

**What problems is Bettercomp solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having all of our surveys located in one place makes it easy to market price our jobs.  I've also had success using the platform to model salary structures for our organization.

**Official Response from Alice Kirchhoff:**

> Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts on BetterComp, Carrie! We truly appreciate it.

  ### 13. BetterComp - Making Market Pricing Easy

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Angela M. | Sr. Manager, Global Compensation, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 01, 2021

**What do you like best about Bettercomp?**

I like the connectivity built into BetterComp.  I was able to map our jobs and job levels once and the mapping applies across all our pay markets.  That is a big help when you are pricing across 50+ countries. I like how easy it is to select data cuts across many pay markets.  Most of all, I like the customer service.  The BetterComp team are fantastic to work with and are always looking for ways to improve the tool.

**What do you dislike about Bettercomp?**

I don't like that I can not limit some of the functionality to only specific team members.  For instance, I want to limit who can create a pay market, who can change an aging factor, etc. and this security doesn't exist yet.

**What problems is Bettercomp solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are applying our market pricing philosophy globally, allowing us to determine competitive pay quicker and easier than ever.
