Special Survey Discount Offer!

Many of you know how particular I am about the survey sources we use. I have been closely watching all the major on-line resources for a number of years and have done my own analysis of the veracity of each on-line tool that I’ve used.
Based on recent improvements in the algorithms and the comprehensive and stable nature of the database, we are now recommending Kenexa Comp Analyst as one of the data sources for our clients.
Hey, is this just Salary.com with a new name? Well, this system is the back-end of their database and contains ONLY data provided by employers. There is NO self-reported data here. And employees love to hear that we are looking at one of their favorite survey sources as part of our analysis process!
The algorithms are robust enough to adapt well to various industries and company sizes. The data is easy to use and is very comprehensive. We adapt the data cut we use slightly to account for the heavy influence of Fortune 500 companies in this database and provide this data to all our clients as part of our benchmarking process.
If you are looking for a solid survey tool that you can integrate into your survey library, we highly recommend this tool. There is a 10% discount if you subscribe through this link, http://solutions.salary.com/g/?MNX7N4T5RN=clicksrc:SFDC in the next 90 days.
