Pave Reviews & Product Details

I have implemented Pave's Total Rewards portal and Team view at two companies, and in the past year have started leveraging the market data (including equity benchmarking) and bands tool more and have found them so useful. I also think the compensation planning tool might now have the features I need such that it's time for another team so I can consider implementing that as well - I think our leaders would really appreciate Pave's UI for that.

The implementation and integration process was very organized and painless, with wonderful technical support along the way (first time was Natan, second was Garrett and they are both amazing~). And they keep making it easier and easier for me to make platform changes on our own. The security capabiltiies in particular have been wonderful - I am unable to share pay ranges with leaders in workday how I desire, but Pave makes it easy to set up the security I need. I, myself, use Pave multiple times a week - anytime I want to look up a range or an employee's full total rewards package, vs. Workday, as Pave is so much more user friendly.

I also use Pave for benchmarking any new roles - it's not my sole data source, but a key one. And now that there is offer data from Greenhouse and equity practice benchmarking, it's even more valuable. I see Pave as the future primary market data source of most compensation professionals.

My favorite thing about Pave is the responsiveness to feedback. They prioritize listening to subject matter experts and making changes to their platform to be more valuable to the users. They iterate quickly and thoughtfully, and are constantly improving their capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some features like custom peer grous that I'd like to see, and improved customization on viewing pay bands, but generally I've been very pleased, especially as they continue to improve upon their product regularly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Ability to understand total compensation

- Clean, intuitive UI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Stocks are broken down by grants, would be nice to have a view to breakdown stocks overall not just on a grant by grant basis Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visual management is on point and makes managing comp during merit and otherwise a breeze. Very customizable too, so you can build it how you want it, which is really nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing I dislike, but rather wish. They have Mexico salary information but it's based off of compensation in the MX City market, which is more expensive and not relative to the Yucatan. Hoping one day they'll have regional salary/market data in MX specifically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pave elevates compensation benchmarking & merit cycles out of spreadsheets in user friendly ways that allow people teams to capture notes & approvals. It also provides a visually pleasing way to deliver offer letters and display total compensation to your team. Their team is super responsive and always open to feedback. They've improved the product by leaps and bounds in the last few years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pave covers a lot of ground, but you have to pay for it. It certainly isn't the cheapest tool on the market, but we've found the return on investment worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pave has transformed how we approach compensation at our organization. The platform is dynamic, constantly evolving with new features that reflect a deep understanding of what we, as People leaders, need to be effective. Implementation was seamless, and integration with our existing systems has been smooth, allowing us to get up and running quickly with minimal disruption. The customer success team is phenomenal—they feel like an extension of our own team, always responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive.

Pave has become a go-to resource for our managers, frequently used outside of regular comp cycles to guide strategic decisions around compensation and team planning. Our leaders are more empowered than ever, making decisions that are both competitive and well-aligned with our budgets. The platform strikes the right balance between functionality and strategic insight, making it not just a tool but a critical partner in helping us create a rewarding employee experience. I couldn’t be more impressed with both the product and the team behind it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We’re have been partnering on a few small updates, and the experience has been fantastic. What truly sets this team apart from other software vendors is their proactive approach to sharing updates on enhancements we’ve requested. It honestly feels like a collaborative effort to keep improving the product.

Pave has been helpful in getting our salary bands created for each of our roles.
