Overall: Not only can COMPOSE handle all of our complex calculations flawlessly, but the developers were able to mirror the spreadsheet view our executives were used to and make the system look identical to our dashboard. This has helped with change management and led to a successful roll-out of the system. We have many compensation cycles and programs, and with the help of the implementation team, we were able to find a way to manage all programs in the system without issue. Even with many changes from our executive team as we implemented, Decusoft handled each change easily and implemented every change promptly. The Decusoft team has been an absolute pleasure to work with, this cannot be overstated enough. The software is working great so far, and we've had a lot of great feedback.

Pros: COMPOSE is endlessly customizable. Our organization has an extremely complex system for a performance-based bonus program, in addition to being a newly public company navigating ESOP for the first time. COMPOSE was able to customize the system to our exact specifications and mirror the look and feel of our spreadsheet-based system prior to rolling out COMPOSE. The customer service is the best I've received in any HR-related software I've ever worked with. If you ask clients why they moved away from a specific SaaS, most of the time poor customer service is at the top of the list. Not so with Decusoft! The team is very prompt, knowledgeable, and helpful. Honestly, above and beyond helpful. We had many hiccups on our end during implementation, but they picked up the slack in a major way. The implementation team was very hands on and an absolute pleasure to work with.

Cons: Sometimes the loading times can be a little slow. The design is very utilitarian and bland, not very "pretty".

Overall: Overall we have had a great experience with Compose. We were return customers after separating from a parent company, and immediately thought of Compose when we were ready to implement a compensation system of our own. We have been using the system again for 2 years and have been extremely happy with it. We have also benefited from many of the enhancements in the latest version.

Pros: We like the flexibility that Compose gives us to maintain our existing process, but use software to execute. The customer service is also an important part of why we continue to use Compose.

Cons: It would be nice to have some more access to do things on our own within the system. The system offers a lot of customization that can be done by the developers, but it would be great to have some front end configuration options so we can make our own changes as well.

Pros: The user interface is similar to Excel so it is flexible and familiar to use, and it is very secure. This makes it easy to transition from Excel to software which often tends to be a difficult change management process for compensation managers. Decusoft is a great company to work with. They have deep knowledge of compensation processes and they are able to interpret unique situations and build solutions into the software to meet clients needs. Their support service is second to none as their implementation team is typically the post production support team and they strive to help their customers during their busy season.

Cons: Nothing negative to report on. The latest version of the user interface is modern and liked by all.

Overall: Compose has allowed us to automate workflow around our grant process across the globe. It is easy for managers to use, even the first time, and it is quick and easy to modify criteria or data on the fly.

Pros: Compose is very easy to use and the service team is very supportive and quick to respond.

Cons: There is nothing specific to note, but I would say for me, it was starting to work in the system without a training session. With the grant for this year, I was able to get some quick training support from the service team and that made a great deal of difference.

Overall: Previously, all of our compensation data and processes (US and internally/ multi currency) were housed within excel. Compose has allowed us to streamline the entire compensation (base, bonus, shares) recommendation processing which has allowed for increased efficiency on the administrative side and an easy to use end user product.

Pros: highly customizable to meet our business needs, excellent user experience, extremely knowledgeable and responsive team.

Cons: due to entire product being highly customized, it may be challenging for the system to be agile if business demands change in the future. We have not experienced this yet but did sign on with compose knowing this could come up at a later date.

Overall: The team understands our various plans, and what it takes to have the tool calculate and communicate them appropriately.

Pros: We have very complex bonus plans that Compose is able to handle

Cons: Difficult to make one-off changes to employee bonus plans

Overall: We use COMPOSE to manage the administration of metric statements, payment calculations and payment statements for our annual bonus program.

Pros: The ability to configure it to our needs, which change every year and its ability to handle all the complexities of our program.

Cons: It is sometimes cumbersome to make changes or add participants if not accurate or included in the initial upload.

Overall: It's been fantastic for bonus calculation and it has really made our lives so much easier. I would highly recommend this software to any peer or colleague

Pros: I love the functionality of the software, it is so user-friendly. I am a new user and I made a seamless transition into becoming fully capable of using this wonderful system.

Cons: I cannot think of a single one, could not be more pleased!
