"Like having another comp analyst on staff!"
5/5
What do you like best about Payscale Ascent (formerly Marketpay)?

I really like the real time ability to go into Marketpay, review a job and make the changes needed on the fly. No waiting for formal reviews if a job needs to be updated, I can easily do this. I also really like the way the new version has an easy-to-use dashboard with the pieces of data I use most at my fingertips. The new AI feature for helping find matches is also a really nice enhancement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Payscale Ascent (formerly Marketpay)?

We've been very pleased with our experience using MarketPay by Payscale.

It's user-friendly, customizable, and powerful—exactly what we need to support our complex compensation structure.

A big part of our positive experience has been the outstanding support we've received from our Customer Success Manager, Michaela. She's responsive, knowledgeable, and always goes the extra mile to ensure we’re getting the most out of the platform. Her partnership has been invaluable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"MarketPay Review"
5/5
What do you like best about Payscale Ascent (formerly Marketpay)?

MarketPay is user friendly, offers the ability to pull standardized reports as well as custom reports/views, follow trends, model salary ranges, review different survey cuts, copy matches and it is easy to search for market matches with the ability to search for key words in the job description. Along with the technical benefits of MarketPay, we also have had the most amazing senior customer success manager, Troy Hutt for multiple years. He is super responsive and even when we have a question that isn't his expertise, he takes the extra step to guide us to the right person or gets an answer for us. He also proactively sends us updates on enhancements and new offerings of MarketPay. There are also many free webinars on multiple topics including orientation of the tool. Our organization really likes the 3 year contract fixed pricing, hope that will be an option again when we review next year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Payscale Ascent (formerly Marketpay)?

I don't think this is a MarketPay requirement, but our organization requires an SSO certificate and every time we sign into the system, we need to do MFA so that is an extra step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
