CandorIQ has been a great partner for our compensation work. The data is powered by Mercer, which gives me confidence that we are working with a strong dataset and lots of reliable data points. The platform itself is easy to use. Our recent compensation review went smoothly, especially with the ability to pre-load pre-approved raises and require comments for any additional adjustments. Customer service is truly top notch: the team listens, is responsive, and works with us to solve issues quickly. I also appreciate that because CandorIQ is still in a growth phase, my feedback is heard and often implemented, which makes me feel like I am helping shape a tool that really works for us.

Right now, compensation bands cannot be automatically updated with new market data. While the team is very helpful in bulk updating bands on the back end, it would be great to see this automated in the future. Some aspects of the platform are still being built out, but that is expected for a startup product. It is also an opportunity, since it means they are improving quickly and adapting to user needs.

CandorIQ has been an invaluable partner in helping us execute on our employee experience vision. From the very beginning, their team demonstrated deep expertise, a genuine commitment to understanding our goals, and a proactive approach to ensuring our success.

The platform itself is intuitive, powerful, and designed with the end user in mind. It’s clear that every feature has been thoughtfully crafted to help organizations like ours create more impactful, data-driven employee experiences. The insights we’ve gained are already shaping the way we approach engagement, retention, and overall team satisfaction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Still in the early phases, we are working out some kinks, such as sharing benefits information to make things less manual. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CandorIQ's team were so helpful and hand ons in helping us onboard to get great benchmarketing data and get us through our comp cycle.

In particular they were able to help get all our merit increase letters to employees through their portal (we had 16 different letter types) and they were able to help us automate the letter making and delivery of our letters so that employees could log on and get their letters. They were so quick in helping us deliver these as they got it done for us in one day. Employees were particularly happy to get the letters but also to to see their total compensation value in a dashboard including the cost of benefits and equity within their portal.  

CandorIQ has a really easy to use solution that has helped scale our compensation planning practices. In particular, they have a great benchmarketing tool that takes the best data for your industry to help build your team's levels. The team is particularly agile and was able to quickly delivery feature requests like addition search functionality or descriptions of roles. The service and speed is particularly impressive! They also have a lot of flexibility in their UI for many different cases and if they don't have something and you request it they tend to build it out quickly.

The team is so quick and agile it is amazing to see all the new features that have come out even in the last quarter! I am excited to see what they build next. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They'll need to develop easier upload capabilities. We don't have HRIS APIs hooked up so need to do work arounds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CandorIQ is a powerful tool that combines simplicity with depth. Its design is clean and user-friendly, making it easy to navigate while still covering all the essentials. The interface is intuitive and visually appealing, which enhances the user experience. Another standout feature is the support team, which provides exceptional “white glove” service, ensuring users feel supported every step of the way. The tool is also easy to set-up, making integration a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CandorIQ is a new tool with a solid foundation, though some features are not yet available, such as detailed, downloadable reports. That said, the tool shows great potential, but there are areas where additional features would enhance its overall utility and effectiveness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CandorIQ has a really good price point for smaller businsses. The partnership that CandorIQ has with Mercer means that the data can be trusted and I like how the platform can be customised to meet our business needs. We are still in the early days of rolling out the system, but so far it has been an overall positive experience as an administrator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CandorIQ is still very much a startup. The onboarding process still needs work and there isn't much extra support resources available for the end user. However, the team is always around to answer questions if you need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The headcount planning module is one of a kind. I have yet to see a tool tackle this in a way that actually allows teams to get out of spreadsheets and automate a process that connects to your HRIS and ATS and manages approvals, projects org views into the future, and allows finance teams to more accurately budget headcount. It's such a game-changer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Haven't come across anything the team was not able to update or customize for us. It has always been white-glove customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CandorIQ is a powerful platform across both workforce planning and compensation. It effectively enables collaboration across HR, Finance and executive leadership, reducing cross-functional friction.

In my career I’ve spent countless hours building, populating and reconciling spreadsheets. CandorIQ effectively automates mountains of work, while improving decision-making with data, reporting and scenario planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While CandorIQ delivers great value, it could benefit from more integrations with some niche systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm really impressed with what CandorIQ has accomplished in it's short history. They are addressing a huge pain point for businesses around compensation planning. The application, accommodates a variety of compensation designs for smaller startup companies, and it includes embedded market data that otherwise would be a separate expense.

I'm looking forward to see what they do around customer driven configuration options and also workforce planning that can be shared between both HR and finance teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
