Compensation Tool is an excellent resource for accurate, validated, and timely compensation data. As a Compensation professional, I am often asked to provide real-time compensation data that is relevant and specific to the geographies in which my organization operates. Compensation Tool's software, Squirrel, makes this as easy as typing in the name of a job and selecting some search criteria, similar to a web search. Unlike salary surveys, this data is more frequent/real-time and is catered specifically to what you search for. The tool is effective and I particularly like how affordable the solution is. There's also essentially zero implementation required - purchase the software and it's ready to go. The customer support is fantastic and flexible and easy to get in touch with.

You can sometimes be at the whims of data availability which means you can't always find the information you're looking for. For example, if you're looking for compensation data in very rural or remote locations, you may not be able to find anything. This is no fault of Compensation Tool though - it's just that there may literally not be any compensation data (i.e., job postings) available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
