The product functionality is exceptional and the customer service and client relationship for salary planning, incentive planning and stock planning is the best that I have found. The software is customizable for each company and you are not forced with a standard out of the box tool. The integration team is well versed in compensation and are beyond helpful at any hour of the day during our planning season. ----- ### "Franklin Templeton - Sales Implementation" — 5.0/5 > **Sheldon** | *14 October 2020* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Our Global Total Rewards Team had decided on Decusoft COMPOSE as a replacement platform for PayReview. This made the choice clear for the Global Sales Team to work with Decusoft on the Global Sales Compensation Product Replacement. The ease setup and implementation along with data sharing among the two applications were key features. > > **Cons**: Some of the features with Decusoft COMPOSE needed to be built out to fit the Global Sales Compensation business needs. Although - these features were not part of the core product offering - they were built out in a timely manner and to specification. > > Great management and implementation team to work with. Very reasonable and very flexible to accommodate our needs. We would recommend Decusoft. ----- ### "Great Service Team\!" — 3.0/5 > **Michael** | *25 September 2020* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The service team is very flexible in accommodating our firm's unique compensation structure within the system. We've been able to track and report on a number of different types of compensation elements with various payment rules. > > **Cons**: We've found it a bit difficult to navigate the security setup, though the service team has done a great job in getting us set up. ----- ### "Helped to ensure more accurate and efficient commissioning of work" — 4.0/5 > **Alejandro** | *21 April 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The utilisation of the sales commission functionality in Compose helped me to organise well the administration of sales bonuses. Thus, it ensured that commission structures were clear and allowed for the timely processing of payouts, which tied sales efforts to employees’ pay.​ > > **Cons**: At the time when Apex deals with a large number of customers and their commissions in AT\&T, it took a little longer to upload online commission data. It also resulted in a delay in the calculation of commissions and additional supervision.​ ----- ### "Aligning our compensation strategies with organizational goals" — 4.0/5 > **Ruhan** | *21 April 2025* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Real-time report and analytics of Compose enabled me to get a summary of our company’s compensation information in real-time. This was helpful in decision-making processes and made exposures transparent across all departments. > > **Cons**: I experienced some lags when generating extensive reports within the system. These turnovers were however not very frequent but they resulted in some delay especially during time that was crucial in planning. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/95804/decusoft?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/95804/decusoft) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
