A side-by-side comparison of compensation platforms—see how Pequity outperforms CandorIQ.
Compensation Approvals
Pequity includes a built-in approvals engine so you can route, track, and manage approvals across off-cycle requests like promotions or new hire offers. CandorIQ does not support approvals, leaving teams to rely on manual processes outside the platform.
Proprietary Benchmarking Data
Pequity provides access to real-time global compensation and equity data, so you can make informed decisions without paying for a separate benchmarking tool. CandorIQ does not offer any built-in market data.
AI Compensation Co-Pilot
Pequity’s Co-Pilot is your on-demand compensation analyst. It helps you answer questions, build comp models, and make data-driven decisions faster, all inside your comp cycle workflow. CandorIQ does not offer an AI assistant or similar support tool.
Full Self-Serve Capabilities & Data Ingestion
Pequity’s Full Self-Serve Capabilities and Data Ingestion features are designed to give full control over your compensation processes—without relying on engineers, IT, or weeks/months of implementation. CandorIQ does not offer full self-service flexibility.
What truly sets Pequity apart is its remarkable adaptability to our unique needs. We have many special cases that require different configurations across various countries. Additionally, compensation needs to be handled differently depending on whether employees are in sales or not. Pequity’s flexibility to tailor the software to our specific company needs is one of the fundamental reasons why we chose them.

For compensation cycles, I am not looking for just the right tool - I want the right partner. Pequity's customer approach has been top notch since the beginning, and their tool is just the icing on the cake for my team.

I didn’t think I could have felt so taken care of by a comp planning product and team. The Pequity team and their tool made our company’s comp planning cycle the easiest I have ever been through. Having a comp system that our leadership enjoys using and trusts makes our comp reviews so much easier.

Pequity made how we operate so smooth compared to how we've done things in the past. There were a lot of changes on the fly, and the Pequity team was great with quick responses and staying on top of everything. The Pequity team was incredible. I really can't thank you enough, it has made my life quite a bit easier during a pretty stressful time.

What we've really appreciated and what makes us like Pequity so much is the level of care we receive from the team. It's just incredible to us. The support feels very direct, and we are in good hands the whole time. I never felt like we were more than two hours away from getting a response when we needed it.
