SAP Sales Performance Management from Success Factors works great if the incentive calculation is simple. However, if it contains a lot of constraints and filters or is dynamic, it is not friendly to changes or complexity in terms of configuration and time to calculate the incentives. The advantages of using SAP Sales Performance Management are that the process is controlled, the data is in the cloud, and the roles and permissions make it more secure.

• Since it shows the data of sales so they don't have any method by which the refund in the sales can be tracked. One of my teammate had refund done but it was not showing in the Everstage. I think this need to improved
• The dashboard can be improved by showing some emojis, if he is coming on top and makes the employee feel happy.
• Sometime after login it shows the 3 months before data, i think it should start by showing the current data.

My rating is because even though the system works well and has many good features as far as the regular hierarchy, ability to enter fixed variables and the use of rate and lookup tables, there are few sticking points. The custom hierarchy is not easy to use as it is not just point and click. Also, the rule writing is difficult and requires a lot of testing to ensure the results are what you are expecting to calculate or pay.

It's Wonderful. They have been accessible when in need. the response is immediate and genuine. the support wait time is not too long either. when a fault is pointed out, thy accept it and try to work on it and within a week they try to find a better option to resolve the issue. Accepting and working to deliver better is really appreciable thing. Kudos to the team on that

Everstage has kept its promise of providing timely, accurate incentive calculations while outperforming against previous solutions. It takes overly complex process with lots of data and inputs, and streamlines it and makes the process much more efficient. It was chosen also due to its high level of integration with our existing CRM platform, as well the robust nature of the software itself.

We wanted a commission system that was designed for commissions and required limited configuration. SAP Commissions is just that.

1. Ananplan is more of a financial software that can be used for commissions.
2. Iconixx and Xactly are comparable to SAP Commissions but seemed to be built more for small to mid-size customers.
3. Variacent required too much up front configuration work. It was not ready to use out of the box.

• Improved Performance and Productivity
• Enhanced Accountability and Fairness
• Overreliance on performance metrics and incentives alone can sometimes lead to unintended consequences, such as employees focusing solely on meeting targets without considering other important aspects of their roles, such as customer satisfaction or long-term strategic goals

• The efficiencies gained by moving from reports and spreadsheet alone has earned us a positive ROI.
• SAP Commissions speed to the market allows us to quickly and cheaply change our direction to meet market demands.
• Our sales force's engagement has drastically improved. We are now paying monthly instead of quarterly and have earned their trust.
