Forestall costly turnover and ensure pricing is accurate for every job. Rich in unique features and totally friendly tool to work with. > > **Cons**: Only works on Desktop and Laptop, Android and iPhone/iPad platforms are not supported. > > I am using using software since last many years and can say that it is a totally reliable and trustworthy tool for the dept. Very much happy with the software. ----- ### "I have used payscale to price positions as well as to benchmark my own compensation." — 4.0/5 > **Aimee** | *12 May 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's a great tool--they have an impressive amount of data from which they are pulling results. It's one of the more impressive salary tools out there because it takes into consideration factors that other tools are not - such as level of experience, region of the country, how much education you've had, and drills down even more specific than that. You can price by a job title if you are a recruiter or other HR professional or you can price out a potential offer for a position for which you've applied as a potential candidate. > > **Cons**: While it seems to drill down specifically enough to differentiate between the non-profit and for-profit sector, I don't always agree with the results for my region. From my 15+ yrs experience, they seem to be pricing certain positions in the non-profit sector a bit lower. Perhaps they need to survey and add more non-profit data. > > Its a helpful tool whether you are looking to price out your 'worth' in consideration of a potential job offer, or you are looking to bench mark positions within your organization. ----- ### "Payscale has many features as data sets to compare comp, but implementation process is horrible." — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *8 April 2026* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Payscale provides a wide scale of data sets, from customer data to HR analysis from many different data sets. Payscale allowed for a variation of jobs and allows your to combine many jobs into one (blend) which helps accurately achieve salaries for unique job titles. > > **Cons**: The implementation was horrible and we didn’t feel prepared to run simple reports after implementing PayScale. The reporting options are very vague or overly detailed. There is no medium and there aren’t common reports that many clients use frequently. > > Overall, I would rate PayScale a 6 out of 10. There are some features that are great but implementing can be a pain. Got a unique company with many different industries in one, PayScale doesn’t cater to us. ----- ### "I learned where I could be from information about my position, education, and experience" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *24 May 2018* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: PayScale showed me where I ranked in terms of salary and benefits among people in my region with similar titles and backgrounds. > > **Cons**: It relies heavily on keyword matching, and people who have similar titles at different companies could be performing vastly different functions. It would be nice if they included some responsibilities in their questionnaire for a sanity check. > > I was able to see where I ranked in terms of salary among people in my region with similar titles. I could possibly use this in future salary negotiations, but I think I would need a good bit more proof to really make my case. ----- ### "Amazing team offering great data to help remain competitive with out compensation program" — 5.0/5 > **Stephanie** | *6 April 2018* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We have 125 jobs in our company and we were able to match all but two with this one system. These two were very niche to our industry and company so we are very pleased with that. The data is very comprehensive and made our salary structure review project very easy. > > **Cons**: Some customization for us to be able to upload specialized job details would be helpful. We may find that other companies in similar industries have jobs that are hard to match. > > All of our comp data in one place. We have employees in other states and PayScale comp experts helped us create labor markets for each area we have remote staff. This allowed us to have salary ranges applicable to those locations to ensure we were paying them relative to the COL vs. the DC market. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/145621/payscale-suite?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/145621/payscale-suite) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
