By creating a custom market proxy, you can determine how effective your compensation plan actually is. Plus, the tool provides insights into the cost associated with optimizing for consistency and competitiveness so you can make informed decisions about employee salaries without breaking the bank.

OpenComp Geo Strategies: Manage Plans for Remote Pay in Clicks

When your workforce is spread out across many different locations, you're in direct competition for talent in multiple geographic markets. But relying on a single pay strategy to manage all employees is a risky move that could lead to overpaying or undervaluing top talent. Managing a dispersed team involves creating remote pay policies that balance competitiveness with cost-effectiveness. Doing so, however, can be a complex and error-prone process.

OpenComp's Geo Strategies feature allows businesses to easily manage pay plans for remote employees with just a few clicks. With pre-built templates, users can quickly adopt a geo strategy and adjust their pay plan in seconds. 

For those who need a more custom solution, OpenComp also enables them to build out a fully customized remote pay plan based on their specific needs. 

This capability helps companies make sure that all of their employees, regardless of location, are fairly compensated for the work they do.

OpenComp User Permissions: Ensure The Right People Get the Right Information

While compensation touches every employee in your business, not every person needs access to each piece of information. The information you want to give your exec team will likely look very different from the information you share with people managers and individual employees.

OpenComp's user permissions feature simplifies the process of managing and administering employee compensation across your entire organization by enabling you to easily grant access to relevant comp data while restricting access to sensitive information. 

This ensures that managers have the right information at their disposal when making decisions related to salaries and promotions, while keeping confidential pay information secure. 

Our compensation software’s intuitive interface provides easy-to-understand overviews of salary ranges and makes it simple for users to analyze comp data quickly and accurately. As a result, businesses are able to confidently manage their compensation practices with less stress and more success.
