People Teams Love Aeqium

Aeqium absolutely has a positive ROI for dbt Labs. We can easily customize it to match every iteration of our comp program, and it helps us and our managers make more thoughtful comp decisions. It’s made my life easier and is a big “W” for our people team.

Clyde Stackhouse
Global Total Rewards Manager at dbt Labs

Aeqium was a no-brainer. It costs us less than half of what we were being charged by Pave. It's easier to configure, it's easier for our managers to use, and our leadership team raves about it.

Joe Bast
VP of People and Operations at Crisp

Aeqium has been instrumental in advancing our team's understanding of total compensation and has become the center of gravity for all things comp at WHOOP.

Rob Case
SVP Talent at WHOOP

Other platforms want to fit you into a box and say, ‘this is how you should be doing it.’ but with Aeqium, we were in the driver's seat and could tell the tool how we wanted things to look.

Carter Faison
Head of Total Rewards & People Operations at Thoropass

Our compensation review ran so smoothly with Aeqium. Our people team, managers, and leadership found it very simple to use. Our CTO says it’s one of the easiest systems he’s ever used, especially for HR tools.

Elad Shafran
Head of People Operations at NEXT Insurance

We have far fewer questions about the process and more of a focus on applying the compensation philosophy for their employees, which is a marked difference from previous cycles. Our managers estimate they complete their reviews in half the time and that there are 90% fewer errors in the data.

Aeqium significantly reduced the risk, lost time, and frustration that came from running our compensation planning. It's been a true game-changer for us at Braze.

Isabelle Winkles
CFO at Braze

Aeqium is highly configurable and simple for admins and users. We reviewed other tools where you’d need to pay extra for a contractor to configure them. We wanted to handle the setup ourselves but have help when we needed it, and Aeqium made that easy.

Alex Greenwood
Compensation & People Analytics Partner at NEXT

I love how configurable Aeqium is. It gives me the power to do anything I need to set up our cycle and match our process, and I love that I can make changes at any time.

Kristin Shenenberg
Dirtector of HR & Total Rewards at Front

Aeqium saves us hours of work for our HR and finance departments, and it gives us the flexibility we need to feel completely in control. We're not forced into a certain way of doing things just because that's how the product was built.

Michelle Sieklucki
Head of People Operations at Hopper

Aeqium has been really flexible in meeting our needs for our compensation cycles. It’s highly customizable, the configurations are easy for us to manage on our own, and customer service has been really, really excellent.

Angele Welch
Director of Total Rewards, Warby Parker

Aeqium has completely changed the way we do comp at Braze. It gives us a data-forward approach where managers feel confident about their recommendations and department heads can truly analyze the decisions being made. We have a very nuanced total rewards program, so Aeqium’s flexibility is key.
