Salary.com, a leading provider of compensation management software and data solutions, has expanded its offerings by acquiring HCR Software. This move integrates CompXL's incentive compensation planning software into Salary.com's existing suite, enhancing their Total Compensation Management Platform (TCM). The TCM, known for its accuracy and comprehensive data, now offers a more complete and scalable enterprise solution, promising to simplify the management of compensation and benefits for organizations.



Waltham, Mass., Nov. 07, 2023 Salary.com®, the market leader in total compensation management software and data solutions, announces the acquisition of HCR Software, maker of CompXL’s enterprise incentive compensation planning software. CompXL supports the management of merit raises, bonus, commissions, long term incentive awards, equity, and employee total rewards statements across an entire organization. With this acquisition, Salary.com builds on its core foundation of highly accurate and comprehensive data and software, completing the evolution of CompAnalyst® into the only Total Compensation Management Platform (“TCM”) that pairs Salary.com’s proprietary back-end technologies with a familiar spreadsheet format to make a flexible, scalable, enterprise-ready solution built for the cloud.

Kent Plunkett, CEO and co-founder of Salary.com says, “Most companies struggle to manage decision-making and communications around people’s pay and incentives. Our CompAnalyst Total Compensation Management Platform now offers enterprises everything they need to benchmark, manage, and communicate employee total rewards. Getting pay right is at the heart of the deal between employers and their people. Building trust and engagement are the new imperative for HR, compensation, recruiting and sales leadership teams. With the addition of CompXL’s compensation planning software, and the expertise of their team, Salary.com is creating a way for employers to consistently earn that trust.”

Accuracy, fairness, and communication are at the core of how you get pay right. The addition of CompXL rounds out our award-winning Suite’s capabilities to offer the most complete and integrated compensation capabilities across the entire enterprise.”
