"Good platform and great service."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Certent?

Solid features and an easy to use package. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Certent?

I like having an integrated broker that can control the product development and interplay. It is difficult to work with a broker and Certent in some cases because of the competing interests. Certent is a fantastic partner but can't control the broker priorities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Platform for Public Companies"
4/5
What do you like best about Certent?

The Certent platform is excellent when it comes to public company compliance and reporting - they provide SOC 1 reports for audit comfort, reliable disclosure reports, and verifiable compensation expense calculations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Certent?

My one experience with Certent that was fairly negative was with their Accounting Services team a few years back - I haven't used them since, but I found their offerings didn't decrease my workload at all as an outsourced service, but instead actually increased mine and the time to get things accomplished.

"Certent just does it all."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Certent?

The thing I like about Certent is the user interface is really easy to use. We looked at comparable systems by all the big names, and Certent was just the simplest to implement and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Certent?

One downside is that the system only allows you to automate one kind of grant in terms of acceptance of the form. Luckily we mostly only use one type of equity awards but it would be great if it allowed automatic acceptance of multiple grant types so it was less manual to do other types of awards.

"Basic and easy to use for equity management"
4/5
What do you like best about Certent?

This is a relatively simple, intuitive, and easy to navigate system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Certent?

The UX could definitely use a refresh - it's pretty bland/basic - but it doesn't impact the system's usability. This may be more important to us if our staff had access, rather than just our small admin group. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
