It is a great tool to have if I need to make my business case for why we did or did not adjust a certain pay scale based on comprehensive data from CA. I can present a very strong case with real data to approve or reject a request for an adjustment or offer that is above or below our pay scale.

There is a lot of data and tools available in CompAnalyst. Like most tools, you will get the most out of it if you take your time to explore and learn all it has to offer. From there, take your time to fill in the relevant information that is important to your specific job role and industry.
It helps us as we explore new markets to get an understanding of compensation expectations to help our clients know what they should/shouldn't pay to remain competitive in attracting new talent and what we would recommend retaining current talent. We're legal recruiters and salary can range widely depending on the company, years of experience, education level, etc.
Pros

Cons
There's a lot going on in the screen.

If you are trying to assess compensation by understanding what is appropriate with a variety of factors, this tool can be extremely helpful. I've used it for multiple roles to educate potential clients on why their job board postings aren't receiving the attention they think they should, or why the folks applying are much less qualified than what they want.
Our organization uses CompAnalyst across the enterprise. The system houses all of our market composites, salary surveys, internal job information, employee data, and job descriptions. Our HR Partners have access to CompAnalyst to search for and export job descriptions and other compensation data. CompAnalyst has allowed our organization to create a "one stop shop" for compensation management, and the software has reduced the amount of time we spend on survey management while increasing the amount of time we can spend providing strategic direction to the business.
Pros
CompAnalyst's Job Architect revolutionizes job description management. The job description process lives within the software from conception through completion. Workflows allow job descriptions to be edited and reviewed by users and non-users throughout the organization, and you can search for related tasks and responsibilities within Job Architect.
Our Customer Success Manager and Professional Services Consultant are responsive, knowledgeable, and available to address our questions and concerns. Having a dedicated team of compensation experts helps us have the best possible experience.
As one of the first compensation management software solutions in the market, CompAnalyst excels in managing survey data and market composites. The system is intuitive and user-friendly, and the development team is always looking for new ways to enhance system functionalities.
Cons
I would like to see additional customization options in the software's application widgets.
Some competitors offer the ability for customers to see real-time pay data from their customer base. This is a feature I would like to see in CompAnalyst.
Some user interfaces in the software still need to be updated, but the team is doing an excellent job rolling out new features and updating the tool.

I highly recommend considering CompAnalyst if you're looking to take your compensation function to the next level. If you're looking to create a "one stop shop" for your compensation needs, then this is the software for you. You can easily manage job descriptions and survey data, and you can empower your HR teams to find information in the tool by giving them access to specific areas of the site. The system can be configured to fit the needs of your organization.
It is used in the Human Resources Department. We use it as one of our survey sources to market price our jobs. We also use it for geographical differentials and bonus information.
Pros
It can find job matches that some industry surveys do not have.
It can always get data for a position.
It is easy to use.
Cons
LTIP STI information is needed in more detail.
It needs more detailed job descriptions for level differentiation.

Well suited as an add on to validate market surveys. I do not use it as my main survey source. Can typically get data when other surveys are lacking. Always a good starting point for a market analysis. System is easy to use and fast.
