Frequently asked questions

What is compensation planning software?

Compensation planning software is a digital tool that helps organizations streamline, automate, and optimize employee compensation processes. It enables teams to manage salaries, bonuses, equity, and benefits, ensuring fair and strategic pay decisions. By integrating with HR and payroll systems, it improves budget planning, pay equity, and employee retention while reducing manual work.

How do I choose the right compensation planning software for my company?

Choose software that aligns with your company’s unique compensation process. Key factors include customization, integrations, automation, security, and reporting. Ensure it supports self-service adjustments, streamlines approvals, and integrates with your HR tech stack. Always request a demo tailored to your workflow and submit an RFP to confirm it meets your needs.

How can Aeqium's compensation planning software be customized to fit our specific needs?

Aeqium will match your exact compensation planning process. You’ll choose the data sources, review chains, custom calculations, budget distribution methods, and more. You can make changes yourself anytime or ask your dedicated customer success manager for support.

How does AI work in Aeqium's compensation planning platform?

Aeqium AI does the work, it doesn't just advise on it. Describe what you need in plain language and it configures cycles, builds compensation logic, manages bands, and surfaces analytics automatically. The result: the most powerful compensation planning platform on the market is also the easiest to use. That's not a coincidence. It is design.

How does Aeqium's compensation planning software integrate with my HR systems?

Aeqium directly integrates with most HRIS, ATS, and Equity Management Systems. You can also upload data from any custom source via CSV. Need a custom integration? Ask our team, and we’ll let you know how we can do it.

How long does setup and onboarding of Aeqium's compensation planning software take?

The technical implementation takes just a few hours. The onboarding process, which includes uploading pay bands, user training, and setting goals, takes four to six weeks on average. Tell us when your next cycle needs to run, and we’ll make it happen.

What makes Aeqium different from other compensation planning software?

Most powerful platforms are hard to use. Most easy platforms lack the power enterprises need. Aeqium breaks that tradeoff. The AI absorbs the complexity so the platform can handle multiple currencies, LTI programs, custom approval chains, and any compensation philosophy, while remaining simple enough for anyone to use. The more powerful Aeqium gets, the easier it gets. That's what the Aeqium AI guarantees.

How does Aeqium ensure data security and privacy in its compensation planning software?

We undergo regular external audits and penetration tests, and we are proud to maintain AICPA SOC 2 Type 2 certification.
