Simply Merit covers the vast majority of scenarios that most organizations utilize. It includes Merit, Promotions, Equity and lump sum payments. This system was able to handle 99% of our requirements and our managers found it very easy to use. The support team including Neil and Stacy were always very helpful and responsive.

My biggest critique of Simply Merit is that importing data from ADP into Simply Merit is not as seamless as other systems I've worked with. While you can pull your ADP data into Simply Merit via an import, I would have liked to see this be accomplished through a more hands-off approach such as a overnight file feed. I would also warn users that if you are utilizing ADP fields for purposes other than what those fields were designed for, you may need to make some adjustments to your data before importing into Simply Merit.

- The tool is very easy to train leadership and managers on and provides a simple experience without overwhelming them. We received extremely positive feedback on the ease of use of the software for our end users.
- Their Customer Service is outstanding. Whenever we ran into issues with our data or had questions, their responses were quick and throrough. The training team was also amazing and super helpful.
- There are a lot of features that are customizeable that we didn't initially expect. Proration and allocation were made very simple and saved us a ton of time and manual calculation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- This is an evolving platform and their Support Team is very communicative on what they are working to improve and where the tool is going. There can be improvements in the areas of data imports and exports to make it easier and more customizeable. It can be intimidating at first but does not take long to get the hang of.
- It would be nice to see more integration or ease of translation between HRIS systems. This has been mentioned as part of their eventual roadmap so hopefully there are strides made as this would save even more time in the data cleaning process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
My company had a great experience with the simply merit system and team!
We have just under 2,000 employees and was nervous about how we were going to navigate our first merit planning tool. The Simply Merit customer service team was amazing! Everytime I had a question, big or small, they always got back to me extremly quickly. Excited to continue using this system! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One thing I wish was a possbility was granting access to specific groups of people of our HR team to view, while still letting managers fill in the merit and incentives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love SimplyMerit! Very easy and user-friendly to use as an admin, plus our managers love how simply and direct it is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I haven't found a downside yet, after using it for 5+ years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Every time our team wanted to do something new in the platform, the SimplyMerit team showed us that it was not only possible, but easy!
The support team helped us configure the site to our liking, always within a quick turnaround time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love this system. Any time I thought we did not have the capability to tailor the platform to our needs, the SimplyMerit team helped us make it happen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SimplyMerit allows you to configure the comp cycle truly to your organization's needs, in a short amount of time, and has the nimbleness of mid cycle changes. Such an easy implementation as well, and great support team. It also could account for our different types of changes, bonus, and equity. Very easy for our managers to use, and had great information so they could make informed compensation changes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SimplyMerit could work on their options for the set up of equity when you have guaranteed ratios between types of stock. But that is a very specific request. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The interface is user friendly, both from an HR admin and front-line manager perspective. No more manual spreasheets! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
N/A - the team is engaged, the product is adaptive and affordable. We are very happy with SimplyMerit! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SimplyMerit helped us get away from managing our merit & bonus cycle on spreadsheets. Having the information laid out for managers to view their entire organizations, with all the data points necessary to make decisions, plus the real time changes and approvals was a big timesaver for us.

The configuration and data uploads process was tricky at the start, with not having familiarity of the product and how the data we import would translate into the platform. It took several tries with the employee salary history and the incentive plans, before we got it how we wanted to portray it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Ease of use, budget is always displayed, and management can easily see recommendations and make changes throughout the process. I like the ability to process multiple transactions simultaneously, Merit and multiple bonus types. Communicating with employees is easy; using the letter feature for merit and bonus allows the manager to print and present a letter to each employee. The customer support is outstanding!!! Always friendly and very helpful no matter what the question is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish there was a search feature in the Manager Activity section. I don't like having to continue to click next or guess which page my manager may be on in the event I need to resend an invite or check if the invite has been accepted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I liked how quick we could get the system up and running. We could arrange the fields how we wanted to and upload any custom data fields we needed. Being able to pull the data was also helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The biggest dislike we had was with the final merit statements. Either this is how it is or we just didn't have time to research it fully, but we could not create a dynamic statement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Neil, Stacy and the team were the best! Their customer support was extremely helpful and they were always very responsive.
The system is easy to use for both admins and managers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only thing I didn't like was that some of the fields on employee profiles I couldn't edit myself and would have to do another upload with any changes or edits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
