## Marketpay Reviews
  ### 1. Revolutionized Our Employee Data Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tasha J. | Associate Vice President Compensation, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 21, 2026

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

I like Marketpay as it allows us to organize all our employee survey data in one place, making it a one-stop shop for pricing jobs. I love the AI feature that provides recommended survey matches when you input a job description. The AI tool is helpful because it provides possible job matches, improving the process and accuracy. I also appreciate the custom reporting tools, which help provide meaningful reports for senior leaders, whether pointing out employees who need increases or addressing internal equity concerns. Additionally, I appreciate having the opportunity to reach out for support when needed, and it's great that I can suggest improvements through the site. The initial setup was a great experience compared to reviewing data on spreadsheets.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

Nothing

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

I use Marketpay to organize all our employee survey data in one place, making it easy to price jobs. It solves data organization issues and offers reporting tools for identifying outliers and providing meaningful statistics to leaders.

  ### 2. Reliable functionality in Market Pay

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tricia M. | Director Compensation, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 17, 2025

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

I have been using market pay in a few different employer over the past several years.  I like that it is easy to pick up and navigate.   It is especially helpful when the HR systems are antiquated.   I like to use market pay as the system of record for comp work.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

We are not updating it often enough.  We need to develop more skills internally with managing reports and data.   MP is a robust system that we are using only a small portion of the available functionality due to time and resource issues (internally).  
In 2026 I would like to see our refresh automated (currently an excel load)

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

With respect to Price a job v Price a job legacy.   I'm using price a job legacy due to the fact that there is some functionality that we rely upon around (Market Base Salary Benchmark Value) that is not available in Price a Job.   I understand that all new functionality is only being updated in Price a Job and I have played around with the AI tool there.   I have to go between the two to market price and create new jobs.

  ### 3. Streamlined Market Pricing with Reliable Data

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lisa C. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 26, 2026

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

I like that Marketpay saves all our data and allows us to download it. We can do analysis within Marketpay or just download it in Excel for our own analysis. It can age your data, and there are so many things it can do that I'm sure I'm not even aware of. I also appreciate that I can take classes to learn new things, which helps me find new ways to price jobs. It's convenient to save all our jobs and market pricing in one place, access the data as needed, and feel confident that the information is reliable. I also love how easy the integration and data migration process is; whenever we needed to migrate new data, it was completed within a day or two. Everything being downloadable to Excel is a great feature too.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

I don't have many complaints about Marketpay. There's a new AI tool that I haven't yet learned. I don't think that it's not working well for me; I just don't know how to use it yet.

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

I use Marketpay to quickly find market rates for jobs, which saves me time searching. It keeps all my data and previous surveys, allowing easy access and analysis. It streamlines storing and accessing reliable information for compensation analysis.

  ### 4. MarketPay is our platform and partner for strategic compensation success

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daniel M. | Senior Decision Support Analyst, Strategic HR - Compensation Center of Expertise, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 09, 2019

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

MarketPay simplifies compensation market analysis by providing tools to manage our extensive survey library and leveraging AI-assisted pricing matches across our thousands of jobs. It streamlines annual pricing updates with minimal effort and makes survey participation preparation efficient. Importing and exporting data is straightforward, and while MarketPay offers robust in-app reporting tools, it’s equally easy to extract data for offline analysis. Our small team of compensation consultants and managers use MarketPay throughout the day, and it enables us to accomplish the work of a much larger team.

Their customer support is exceptional—the best I’ve experienced from any SaaS vendor. The team is responsive, professional, and acts as a true business partner, taking time to listen and helping us tackle complex compensation challenges to achieve our goals. MarketPay also includes access to Payscale Connect, offering online training on platform features and best practices in compensation.

Integration with PeopleSoft, our HRIS system, is an easy and seamless process involving mapping automated exports from the HRIS to the MarketPay load templates and then publishing them at scheduled intervals to an SFTP server.

With a long-standing presence in the compensation space, MarketPay continues to innovate by actively enhancing its features and transparently sharing its product roadmap with customers. Their in-product data offerings continue to improve every year.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

I would prefer if the Market Price a Job had the ability to load potential matches or other pricing changes into a "cart" and then had a formal submit/commit that cart to the production pricing.

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

Compensation survey library administration, survey participation, and market pricing of jobs against survey benchmarks, along with optional tie-ins to our job description library in JDXpert. MarketPay's reporting and administration tools are flexible, easy to use, and offer loads of customization options.

  ### 5. Sleek Design and Fast Data Access Set Marketpay Apart

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Cicely C. | Vice President of Total Rewards, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 05, 2025

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

I appreciate the system's design, as well as how quickly it allows me to pull and present data. The support provided by the implementation and account management team has also been excellent. Having used other well-known compensation tools, I can say that none have matched the sleek design and agility offered by Marketpay.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

There isn't much to highlight. At the moment, we are using PeopleSoft, and unfortunately, we are unable to interface it effectively with our tool. As a result, we cannot transfer information through an interface, which I believe is an issue with PeopleSoft itself. Additionally, the tool requires users to have a solid understanding of job pricing and a strong background in survey data to use it efficiently. This could be quite frustrating for those who are new to the compensation field.

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

I am now able to recognize the value of our roles and quickly conduct analyses that lead to well-informed pay decisions. Previously, our organization lacked a formal compensation structure and reliable pay data. With these new tools, I can better support the team in recruiting and mobilizing talent efficiently and in a financially responsible way.

  ### 6. Solid Tool for Data, Needs More Guidance (Personal Relationships)

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Wholesale | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 19, 2022

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

I use Marketpay for various tasks like benchmarking, structure modeling, and reports. I particularly value the Price a Job tool and have found the recently added AI matching feature within it to be quite useful.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

I sometimes don't know what to do next or what I can use to move my company further in our compensation journey. More suggestions maybe on the homepage like I see you have all your jobs benchmarked start working on this next step with.... within our product.

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

I use Marketpay for benchmarking, structure modeling, and reports, but now it mainly stores our data.

**Official Response from Brooke  Grimes:**

> We are so happy to hear about your positive experience with the Payscale team. We love Marcie, she is such an amazing Customer Success Manager! Thank you for your constructive feedback about our learning resources. Our education team is continuing to think about different learning styles as they build out Payscale Academy so that we can be more accomidating. 

  ### 7. Effortless Pay Equity Analysis with Marketpay

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Austin K.

**Reviewed Date:** January 22, 2026

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

I appreciate how Marketpay helps with market pricing analyses during annual reviews and makes it easier to spot disparities across roles or demographics with its reporting tools. The easy setup and report generation makes my work easier and faster, and pulling ad-hoc pricing for new roles is quick and straightforward. Marketpay connected smoothly to ADP for payroll syncing, which ensured that company adjustments flowed right into pay runs. Coming from Radford, I found Marketpay handles our broader needs with less manual data wrangling.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

There's a learning curve if you're not deep into company analysis. Explaining it to others or pulling quick insights takes time.

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

Marketpay helps with market pricing analyses and pay equity analysis, making it easier to spot disparities across roles. Its easy setup and report generation streamline my workflow, making work easier and faster.

  ### 8. Sr Compensation Partner

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Natalia A. | Sr compensation partner, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 21, 2026

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

I like how easy and simple Marketpay is to use. It provides a wide set of data from across industries, which helps us stay competitive and ensures we are paying our employees fairly and competitively.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

We currently don’t have the AI option at my company so that would be nice

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

I use Marketpay to market price jobs. It helps us stay competitive in the market and ensures we pay our employees fairly. I like its ease of use and the wide set of data it provides from various industries.

  ### 9. Helpful product

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 16, 2025

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

Staff are very friendly and helpful at Marketpay. They have helped us work through multiple questions and problems we were having. The system has been very helpful in reviewing our market data and finding market matches for positions. I like that market pay is able to integrate with Workday and pulls in our data. The trainings provided by Marketpay can also be very helpful with the system, but also for keeping up on different situations going on with regulations and compensation practices. I appreciate the Marketpay migration process and how it helps easily update your survey matches.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

Nothing at the moment. I think having a better understanding of reporting would be helpful and since there are so many reports it can be hard to choose sometimes which is the best one. Not a dislike but a challenge sometimes.

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

Marketpay is helping us with benchmarking and improving our processes. They are helping us with coming up with a plan for updating our job profiles and matches in the system. I think the suggestions being made will help us in the long term with our ongoing projects and career architecture.

  ### 10. User friendly and great customer service

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ericha B. | HR Consultant, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 16, 2025

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

Where to start, Market Pay has so many features and they continually are updating the dashboard to help their customers with the changing market. Their customer service is beyond amazing, we have quarterly meetings with Sarah who goes over all the updates of Market Pay and answers all questions we have. She is always so helpful and makes sure all our questions are answered.  Even when we do not have scheduled meetings when we reach out to Sarah she is always quick to respond.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

I wouldn't say this is not helpful but something that would be nice to be able to do, if you could click on the main dashboard on where it shows your stats of the percentage of priced jobs and then being able to click to see what's priced, slotted or on the neither. And it could just take you to the jobs that are priced, slotted, or neither instead of having to pull a report of them.

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

I wouldn't say we have any current problems but one of our survey  vendors updated one of their policies where they cannot release the survey to market pay, we have to go out and upload it ourselves. It does add another step for us and Sarah has suggested that we reach out to the vendors customer service as they are also doing so because this is more of an inconvenience to the customer.

  ### 11. Accurate Market Data with Easy Setup

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Catherine G.

**Reviewed Date:** January 23, 2026

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

I use Marketpay mainly for market pricing and compensation analysis, and what I like most about it is its accurate and up-to-date market data. This helps me provide reliable benchmarks for salaries and benefits, allowing me to make fair, competitive pay decisions quickly. Setting it up was easy and stress-free, which is a huge plus for me.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

One area Marketpay could improve is providing more customization for specific industries. Marketpay could improve by offering more industry-specific filters and templates, allowing salary benchmarks to be tailored to niche roles and organizational needs.

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

I use Marketpay for market pricing and compensation analysis. It solves the problem of inconsistent salary data by providing accurate, up-to-date market data, helping me make fair, competitive pay decisions quickly with reliable salary benchmarks.

  ### 12. Market Data Access with Granular Insights

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 25, 2025

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

What I like best about MarketPay is its accessibility to comprehensive market data and the ability to drill down to granular details when needed. The platform centralizes market data from multiple surveys, making it easy to access without juggling multiple spreadsheets

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

The reporting functionality is not very intuitive and provides only limited flexibility when it comes to extracting data from various reports. This limitation makes it difficult for us to fully utilize the system's capabilities.

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

MarketPay tackles two major issues: pay equity and market competitiveness. For pay equity, the platform delivers reliable, current market data, which helps us make fair and consistent compensation decisions across different roles, locations, and demographic groups. This not only supports compliance but also reinforces internal equity. When it comes to market competitiveness, MarketPay offers fast access to detailed survey data and in-depth insights, enabling us to price positions accurately and maintain competitive pay structures. This, in turn, aids in attracting and retaining top talent while staying aligned with our organizational strategy. Ultimately, the main advantage for us is the assurance that our compensation decisions are informed by data, equitable, and competitive within the market.

  ### 13. Robust Platform for Global Survey Data in Complex Organization

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Biotechnology | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2026

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

Robust, can handle large global complex companies and large datasets.  They load your survey data for you.  Flexible reporting.  Robust survey participation module.  The modeling feature for merit matrices and salary ranges is really nice to have.  Their "Propogate" job match feature is great.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

UI/UX User interface is sometimes a little clunky, "filtery".  Built on old architecture.  Maintaining their Job Code Key for unique field and multiple global structures with geographic zones is high-maintenance.
They are not a Workday certified partner so that sometimes add to our work for integrations.

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

Helping us save time with annual survey participation, salary range structure modeling, and easy job matching in multiple countries.

  ### 14. Very happy with our choice of MarketPay for Compensation data needs.

**Reviewed by:** Abraham J.

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

I use Marketpay for integrating with our HR system to update job codes and salary bands automatically. I find justifying offers and internal adjustments easier with Marketpay because it provides solid, objective data to back them up. I migrated from the older Payfactors to Marketpay and appreciated the smoother UI and better global adjustments. The initial setup of Marketpay was very easy.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

I find the reporting good, but customizing or exporting sometimes feels clunky compared to more modern platforms.

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

I use Marketpay to integrate with our HR system for automatic updates to job codes and salary bands, helping with compliance to pay transparency laws. It also makes it easier to justify offers and adjustments with solid data.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jonathan L.

**Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2025

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

I have been using Marketpay to handle various compensation functions such as benchmarking market data, survey participation, and uploading survey results since April 2025 when I started with my current employer. Marketpay has significantly aided in gathering important market data, which is essential in ensuring our company pays employees equitably, both from an internal equity and an externally competitive standpoint. Having access to this data at our fingertips greatly assists with our short- and long-term decision-making. I find the market data and survey results functions particularly useful, as they help us benchmark our jobs effectively. Additionally, the large number of users relying on Marketpay means that the data is more widespread and reflective of the industry, enhancing its utility and reliability. These aspects make Marketpay a valuable tool for my daily functions, and a main reason why I would definitely consider purchasing it again.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

I dislike the limited options for downloading reports and data in different document formats. This limitation restricts my ability to streamline research by not allowing easy editing and data manipulation in my preferred formats.

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

I find Marketpay assists in gathering market data, ensuring equitable employee compensation and supporting both short-term and long-term decision-making.

**Reviewed Date:** August 12, 2023

It's a one stop shop for storing data. This allows me to be more efficient.

**Reviewed by:** Tifanee C. | Manager, Compensation , Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 09, 2025

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

As an analyst who spent many years conducting surveys manually using only Excel, I find that being able to connect jobs, survey participation templates, and manage the annual migration feels like having an extra full-time team member. The capability to leverage existing reports and create custom ones with employee, job, and survey data allows me to deliver professional executive materials and handle urgent requests efficiently, even when time is limited.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

The only regret I have with Marketpay is not having started to use it earlier.

I find the reporting features of Marketpay could be easier to manage and use. They currently require additional training, which is somewhat time-consuming, especially for HR personnel.

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

I use Marketpay to benchmark jobs, update salary ranges, and consolidate salary surveys in one place, which streamlines compensation management.

  ### 22. Great Compensation Insights, But Navigation Needs Improvement

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kaitlyn J. | Lead, Compensation, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 20, 2025

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

It is fairly easy to use and provides great information about compensation across the market

It is difficult to navigate between different screens, it sometimes opens up a new tab or will not go back to the same screen when you hit back. It is easier to use the legacy tab then the updated one.

It provides insights to how roles are paid in the market which helps when reviewing offer exceptions

Some of the things I appreciate about MarketPay are how easy it is to use--a good balance of beginner-friendly while still having lots of powerful capabilities. I'm really getting a lot of use out of the AI job matching feature they rolled out recently. Their customer support has been fantastic--responsive and timely.

There isn't much I dislike about MarketPay! They do force you to change your password pretty often.

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

We use MarketPay to centrally store all of our salary survey data and to price every job at my organization. We also recently started exploring using MarketPay to participate in salary surveys.

MarketPay is an excellent tool for pricing jobs in the market. The AI feature really simplifies the process of determining market rates for a position. Additionally, their customer support is outstanding.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lisa C. | Compensation Analyst, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 05, 2025

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

Market pay is easy to use.  It's great for keeping all your data in one place. Employee data, salaries as well as current market data. The updates they are making are making it even easier to price jobs and I can't wait to try the AI features.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

The only thing I dislike about Market Pay is how fast it times out. I have mine on the longest setting and it still seems to time out fast.  Then I have to sign back in and pull up my reports or pricings again.

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

Marketpay is helping to keep our compensation data organized and in one place. Our entire comp team can log in and work in the same site.

  ### 27. Sophisticated Benchmarking Product

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2025

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

Good for in-depth compensation analysis and modeling of salary structures, merit, and job architecture.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

Tool may not be good for someone new to compensation. PayFactors is a little more entry-user friendly and Marketpay is better for those with experience and a need for deeper analysis and modeling. I found the benchmarking process in Payfactors to be smoother than in Marketpay.

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

Primarily, benchmarking and compensation management. We use it to run sophisticated reports as well as matching or slotting all of our jobs to one another.

While the system is overall well-designed, learning to navigate through the system can be a bit confusing. Some of the advanced features do take some time to fully get the rhythm of things. I wish there were more tutorials or training guides to better familiarize myself with the program.

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

Getting better comp data for our multiple state positions.

I also really like the way the new version has an easy-to-use dashboard with the pieces of data I use most at my fingertips. The new AI feature for helping find matches is also a really nice enhancement.

**What do you dislike about Marketpay?**

One of the hardest parts about marketpay is keeping the system up-to-date and that's not hard, just one of the harder things!

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

He also proactively sends us updates on enhancements and new offerings of MarketPay.  There are also many free webinars on multiple topics including orientation of the tool.  Our organization really likes the 3 year contract fixed pricing, hope that will be an option again when we review next year.

I don't think this is a MarketPay requirement, but our organization requires an SSO certificate and every time we sign into the system, we need to do MFA so that is an extra step.
