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. ----- ### "An excellent tool- comprehensively price jobs and more" — 5.0/5 > **Austin** | *10 September 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We use Payfactors specifically, and it is a huge help to our work pricing jobs and ensuring an informed relationship to external market data. > > **Cons**: There can be a little bit of a learning curve to it, and some of the nuances are not entirely clear. For example, utilizing quick price vs starting a new pricing project seem to yield different results when searching for the same job match. > > Overall it has been a very positive experience. It is a robust experience with a plethora of data, that is manageable to use given the complexity of the information it is working with. ----- ### "Not Reliable" — 2.0/5 > **Nichole** | *13 June 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: There is versatility, it takes into account things that deviate from the normal duties and requirements of a role. > > **Cons**: It is not reliable, data doesn't update appropriately, the sytem is slow. > > We started out on the original PayScale product, it worked ok but it took literal hours to load and occasionally data from api pulls was miss matched. We were told that to fix this we should upgrade to the new Insight Lab product, which we did of course at an additional cost. The interface was faster but the reports were still unreliable. The response was to upgrade to the new PayFactors product to fix this. We declined as it didn't meat our customization needs, the sales man was not able to answer any of the questions we posed to him, and ultimately we weren't willing to pay more for a product again just to fix the unreliablity of the product they sold us. A year later we are still experiencing issues every review season, they asked to meet about our issues. I told them three times at least that we would meet but do not try to sell us PayFactors, we aren't willing to continue going through the pains of a data migration just to pay more and continue to face the same issues. Of course they came to the meeting with a sales pitch for PayFactors and were surprised that we weren't interested in their "generous" offer of the new platform at the same price. The point was made that there is a trust issue at this point and there is no reason to continue trying the newest, latest, greatest product when nothing has worked as promised yet. ----- ### "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. ----- ### "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. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/145621/payscale-suite?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/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
