"Transparent, Reliable Compensation Management That Saves Time"
What do you like best about Xactly Incent?

I like that Xactly Incent gives me clear, transparent visibility into sales compensation. It handles complex comp plans reliably and reduces manual calculations and errors. Both reps and leadership can easily track earnings, quotas, and performance, which builds trust and minimizes compensation disputes. The automation and reporting also save a significant amount of time and make the process much more scalable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xactly Incent?

I find that Xactly Incent can be complex to configure and maintain, especially when compensation plans or hierarchies change. Some reports and workflows are not as intuitive as they could be, and more advanced changes often require admin support. There’s also a learning curve for new users, but the platform works well once it’s fully set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Xactly Incent?

I like the versatility of Xactly Incent, which allows me to manage complex operations with ease. The user interface is appealing, and I appreciate how it enhances the overall user experience by being intuitive. The software's ease of use is a significant advantage, as it does not require any prior IT background to operate effectively, which is particularly beneficial for me as an administrator. This accessibility makes it possible for a broad range of users to utilize the system efficiently without specialized training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xactly Incent?

I find the system could be cumbersome, particularly due to the difference in user experiences between the screens and the different sections of the system. Improving these aspects would enhance usability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Clear, Accurate, and Transparent Commission Tracking"
What do you like best about Xactly Incent?

As a sales rep, what I like best about Xactly Incent is the visibility and accuracy it gives me into my commissions. I can see exactly how my deals and performance translate into earnings without having to chase down finance or guess what my payout will be.

The real-time dashboards are super helpful, I can check progress against quota anytime, see how close I am to accelerators, and forecast my potential payout. It’s also great for motivation because everything is clear and updated automatically after deals close.

Overall, Xactly Incent saves me time, eliminates confusion, and builds trust in the comp process. I know my numbers are right, and that peace of mind lets me focus on selling.

It integrates with Salesforce because once a deal is closed it's updated in Xactly. I probably access Xactly once a day to track my commissions and how I'm pacing towards my quota.

It's very easy to use so I've not had to contact their support team but I've heard from our ops team that it was easy to set up and their support team is very responsive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xactly Incent?

Nothing. I love it because I love making money and I get to see what my commission will be once I close the deal. Can't dislike something that shows you money :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
