"Great for our team"
What do you like best about CaptivateIQ?

I love the visuals that are provided as it makes everything really clear for my team to review their incentives and the breakdown of each catagory. My team raves about the improvement from excel sheets.

What do you dislike about CaptivateIQ?

I wish from the manager view by reviewing my teams incentives that I had the same view of their incentive breakdown to make going it over with them a smoother process.

What problems is CaptivateIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

For our team we are using CaptivateIQ for our teams monthly incentives and targets. Again I believe the visual breakdown of the data is very digestible for our team.

So far it meets all my requirements and I haven't found anything that I don't like. Maybe a mobile app could be more helpful.

I'm not solving anything but I can plan with how much bonus I'm going to get my future for example a planned purchase or a vacation etc

"I love CaptivateIQ!"
What do you like best about CaptivateIQ?

I love how clear CaptivateIQ makes it for me to get a clear view of what my commission payout will be every month, and it comes straight to my email.

What do you dislike about CaptivateIQ?

It would be nice to be able to see a breakdown of the payout total, but it isn't necessary.

What problems is CaptivateIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

It has helped me see exactly what my paychecks will look like before getting them. If anything is wrong with my payout, I can address it before payday.

No reccomendations at this time! It has been great!

"Makes viewing my commission reports super easy!"
What do you like best about CaptivateIQ?

I love that I can see all of my earnings in one place. It's so easy to log in and see the payout from each deal I've closed and what I've made year to date. We were using a Google spreadsheet before we had this and the ease of use is amazing.

What do you dislike about CaptivateIQ?

I wish I could view a more detailed breakdown of calculations in my commission earnings- right now I can just see the final numbers.

What problems is CaptivateIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were using Google spreadsheets prior to getting CaptivateIQ in place. It was really tedious to have to look at multiple documents to see commissions, and there was no true approval process in place. Now reps get to have record of all the approvals and it's much easier to track everything.

"Great platform for commission checks"
What do you like best about CaptivateIQ?

I love how easy the platform is to use to see and approve my commission checks. As soon as finance approves our commission I can see it and accept it within minutes, I don't have to wait around to know how much money I am getting.

What do you dislike about CaptivateIQ?

The only thing I do not enjoy is that we are unable to see how much money we get per meeting (or deal). This would be an awesome feature to have.

What problems is CaptivateIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

We started using CapitvateIQ because our past platform was clunky and would take forever to approve our commission checks. We have been able to reduce the amount of time and effort that goes into this tenfold.

"Sales Development Rep"
What do you like best about CaptivateIQ?

Having clarity to see my commission and how it is broken down. It allows me to have transparency with my managers. You can view what will be paid out and make sure that it accurately reflects what is reflected in the CRM.

What do you dislike about CaptivateIQ?

Not much. It does take several steps to filter to current/monthly payouts. Making this process quicker would be helpful

What problems is CaptivateIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

Clarity and transparency in commissions. It provides me an opportunity to see exactly how much in commission will be paid out.

"Fantastic Idea I didn't know I needed!"
What do you like best about CaptivateIQ?

I love being able to see my past payouts and correct any errors that I find in past payouts and immediately send a request instead of going back and forth with my manager.

What do you dislike about CaptivateIQ?

I think the only thing that I dislike about it is that I can't see all my past payouts from the past months that I wasn't using Captivate IQ. I would love to see past payouts, and they broke down for me to find discrepancies way after the day I got payesd.

What problems is CaptivateIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm solving finding exactly the structure of my payout each month. In the past I just had to trust that I was going to be payed out correctly without me being able to doublecheck on anything.
