We have been using the Compease software since 2008 and are very pleased with the results.
Reviewed on 26/9/2017
The Compease system allowed us to evaluate our staff positions using a consistent approach and methodology rather than the home-grown system we were using. Due to the consistency of this product, for the first time we felt confident in posting the staff salary grades and salary schedules for access by our employees.
Pros
The ease of use by both our supervisors and the HR staff, as well as the consistency it brings to the evaluation of our staff positions. We also like that the software is now Cloud-based rather than PC-based allowing you to access the system from anywhere.
Cons
In the Job Master section, sometimes the slider bar which allows you to quickly access positions on the list doesn't show up.

The service, the team and all parts of the system and software are awesome. Everyone and everything is so user friendly.
Pros
Since integration, it's a time saver. Love it's ease of use and the support we get if and when needed.
Cons
None that I know of. I've never encountered any issues that would make me dislike this software.

Very good. It is a very easy software to use and update.
Reviewed on 2/4/2018
Pros
The ability to run different the matrix and see the results immediately. It is very easy to add or update job descriptions. We recently integrated with Performance Pro which eliminates the need to add new employees to two different system which saves time.
Cons
Perhaps it may be the user and the need to educate oneself on the process, but when I ran a matrix based on the anniversary date, it did not seem to calculate like I thought it would. We are in the process of perhaps changing when wages are increased from year-end to anniversary date and would like to calculate the cost for the year.

Time it takes to create a pay scale is amazingly short. Also nice to have a back up when Management asks why a position is placed where it is on the scale.
Pros
The software is easy to use, the compensation information is accurate, and I feel they have great customer service.
Cons
If we get a warning when inputting an employee, it would be nice to be able to override it if there are organizational exceptions.

Outstanding
Reviewed on 14/7/2017
We are a new company and we did not have a salary system setup that was fair and equitable for everyone concerned. Since we started using Compease we now have a salary base for each of our positions in the company and because it ties in with Performance Pro it puts more merit into the performance appraisals. Also, the comp reports help show us where our employees stand in relations to the rest of the industry giving our salary base meaning and helps us to be fair and equitable with our employees.
Pros
How easy it is to use. How helpful it is when it is time to figure raises. How it ties in with Performance Pro's appraisal system. I really like all of the different reports it offers for our company.

A customized compensation structure that we will be able to easily keep updated and relevant from year to year.
Pros
It was far easier to learn and use than I anticipated. I really liked having someone come to our site to meet with managers, explain the process and assist in getting relevant information from them to produce effective results.
Cons
There are a lot of features that I haven't yet tried, but expect them to be as user friendly as any others.
Response from HR Performance Solutions
Hi Virginia,
Thanks for the 5-star review! Your feedback about Performance Pro being easy to learn is something we hear pretty frequently. Once you get in the application things become pretty intuitive pretty quickly.
Whenever you have questions about the features you haven't used yet, give us a call. We'll be glad to help.

Compease saves me from having to add a "compensation" member to my HR team. Their comprehensive salary reports and intuitive position grading system have been a great tool for managing both internal and external compensation equity. Their team has been responsive and helpful and spent considerable time with my organization to make sure that the results were exactly what we needed.

Ok Compensation Solution
Reviewed on 27/9/2018
It is just ok. There are a million payroll/compensation solutions and this is about the middle of the road. If I had been in position when this was selected, I would have advocated for a different solution.
Pros
I really like the merit increase planning tool. That definitely is a time saver and helps to streamline our process flow. The projections tools are helpful as well, especially in budget crunch times.
Cons
It is advertised with "robust" data analysis tools. I certainly wouldn't consider this solution as "robust." It's just ok.

Simple and Defensible
Reviewed on 8/12/2015
We've been using Compease since 2010 with very good results. It provides a sound and time-tested process that is defensible should it ever be challenged. Moving from an informal, manual process to a formal, automated platform resulted in some pushback, but ultimately simplified and validated our compensation program. The data behind the system is comprehensive and relevant and our client rep and the company personnel are highly responsive.
