Pricing
Pricing is based on the duration and terms of your contract with the vendor. This entitles you to a specified quantity of use for the contract duration. If you choose not to renew or replace your contract before it ends, access to these entitlements will expire.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
Dimension | Description | Cost/12 months |
|---|---|---|
< 250 FTE | For companies with less than 250 employees. | $10,000.00 |
250 to 500 FTE | For companies with between 250 and 500 employees. | $15,000.00 |
500 to 1000 FTE | For companies between 500 and 1,000 employees. | $20,000.00 |
> 1,000 FTE | For companies with more than 1,000 employees. | $35,000.00 |
Dimensions summary
Pricing scales by your company's employee count, measured in full-time equivalents (FTE). You pick the band that matches your workforce: under 250 FTE, 250 to 500 FTE, 500 to 1,000 FTE, or more than 1,000 FTE. These are four size-based tiers, not add-ons. You choose one tier based on headcount, so larger organizations fall into higher bands. This is a contract purchase, meaning you commit to a term. The tier you select reflects the scale of your compensation program rather than usage volume or feature packages.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
An FTE is a full-time equivalent employee in your organization. You count your total headcount and pick the band that matches: under 250, 250 to 500, 500 to 1,000, or more than 1,000. The band reflects the size of your workforce, not the number of people using the software.
The band you buy reflects your workforce size at purchase. Growing past your band's ceiling means you no longer fit that tier. Moving to a higher band is not automatic within a contract term. You would need to select the band matching your new headcount. Contact the vendor to confirm mid-term adjustment options.
Every band gives access to the same platform: HR-reported benchmarks across 1.4 million-plus jobs, live job-posting signals, AI-guided job matching, salary structure tools, pay equity analysis, and pre-built reports. The band only sets pricing by workforce size. It does not change which capabilities you receive.

Benchmarking and Compensation Tools That Make Hiring and Pay Decisions Easy
Reviewed on Sep 17, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Adding the benchmarking and compensation tools through Salary.com has been a tremendous help for our organization. It makes finding the right comp easy when hiring, but also for benchmarking in our current structure.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only complaint I have is that they check in a lot to see if any additional support is needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool gives me confidence in knowing market rate, even for some of our most technical positions. I'm able to have a great reference on comp whether it is for performance reviews, benchmarking, or recruiting. It is easy to use, customizable, and works great.

Wide Range of Job Descriptions with Easy Customization
Reviewed on Sep 17, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I like the wide range of job descriptions and titles available throughout the site, along with the ability to customize each job.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main areas I’d like to see improved are the overall UI/UX, integrations, and the value delivered relative to the cost. Some workflows feel more complicated than they need to be, and finding important information often takes too many clicks. A more streamlined, intuitive interface—along with smoother integrations—would make day-to-day use more efficient and help the product feel more worthwhile for what it costs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Salary.com helps address the challenge of finding reliable compensation data and translating it into practical salary decisions. It offers market benchmarks that make it easier to assess whether pay is competitive, and it supports more consistent compensation decisions across different roles and employees.

Comprehensive Job Database and Current Salary Data
Reviewed on Sep 15, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Salary.com has a comprehensive database of jobs to search, and salary data seems to be current with the market in our area. I like the ability to create hybrid jobs, since some of our positions require skills from various jobs and we like to compensate accordingly.
What do you dislike about the product?
In the beginning, the workflow for creating our jobs and linking them to market data reports was not intuitive. I had a few training sessions with my rep, took good notes, and then was able to figure out how to save and link the data to be able to come back later and run new reports on existing jobs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Employees will shop around for better pay, so we like to stay on top of what the market is. We want to be competitive and know what our employees are worth before they come to us and say they can get better pay elsewhere. Talent retention is important to us, so paying our employees what they are worth is key.

Valuable Analytics with Need for Improved Data Insights
Reviewed on Sep 15, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I like the customer service as it's very good. The website and the comp analyst feature are nice because they’re user-friendly. What I like most about Salary.com is the comp analyst dashboard, which allows me to see the cost of labor and cost of living in one place, keeping employee retention and lifestyle in mind. I appreciate the maps as they are really good visuals that help me understand geo differentials better.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the comp analyst AI suite a bit frustrating. I've used a lot of our AI credits trying to ask specific compensation and benchmarking questions, but I often end up with no data available. Also, the initial setup wasn't as easy as I would've liked. It required uploading several spreadsheets instead of just one master spreadsheet, which meant more manual work than we hoped for.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Salary.com solves the problem of having compensation data from multiple industries and companies in one place, ensuring accurate data for our needs. The comp analyst dashboard helps by providing labor and living cost insights, which aids in employee retention, and the visual maps clarify geo differentials.
