What do you dislike about CaptivateIQ?

Initially, I found the setup and learning process to be somewhat challenging. It took a bit of time to get comfortable with all the features, especially since I'm not particularly tech-savvy. While I appreciate the platform's flexibility, I sometimes feel that the customization options can be overwhelming. Configuring specific needs often requires extensive support, which can be a bit frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"CIQ Performance"
4.5/5
What do you like best about CaptivateIQ?

#.The direct Data Connectors like Salesforce/Snowflake are very helpful.

#. The newly introduced Transformaton Workbooks are really helpful for performing the transformations, initially we used do these things in Data workbook sections.

#. The Option of Payroll Group in Payout Section saves a lot of time by selecting all the reps in a single click, though we have filters options in this sections.

#. Also, I like the feature of Exports where we can have the template of required plan and saved in that section, and we can pull the data easily by just selecting the payout date of respective month.

#. Publish workflow section is something which I am using the most and it really helps to send the statements in single go connecting to the required hierarchy. This saves a lot of time when sending the payouts the leaders/managers for review.

#. Smart Hierarchy option is just awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CaptivateIQ?

The are couple things which I believe can be Improved in CIQ.

#. Filter Option in the Employee Assumptions (this would help put the filter on particular rep in more than 2000 reps).

#. If we mistakenly process the payouts for the month, we don't have the option to cancel it in the bulk. However, we need do cancel the payouts individually for single reps again and again.

#. In the Statement Design section, we can't link the data from Data workbooks sections, only Employee assumptions and Payout summary section data can be linked.

#. In the Inquiry section, we need to more types like in progress/Need a Approval etc.

#. We can't pull the data from payout section until and unless we process the plans. there should be someways where we can pull this data without reprocessing the plan.

#. We can't edit the Filter applied; we need to close it and put it again for new filter on the same column

#. Going to the Inquiry section directly from the payout section. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
