The real competitor to most commission software is not another app. It is the spreadsheet you rebuild every month. It works until a rate changes, a deal splits, or you try to reconcile what you are owed against what actually paid. CommissionIQ does the same job automatically, from your live pipeline.

| Cost | Free, plus your time every month | $99/yr Solo, and the time back |
A copied formula, a stale rate, a split entered in the wrong column: spreadsheet commission errors are silent, and you usually find them in your paycheck. CommissionIQ keeps the math in one place and updates it automatically.
The hardest column in any commission spreadsheet is what you were actually paid versus what you were owed. CommissionIQ tracks it on the deal, so reconciliation is not a monthly project.
Import your deals from your existing spreadsheet, set your rates once, and your forecast is live. You keep the history, you lose the monthly rebuild.
Yes. Import your deals and contacts from a CSV, set your per-line rates, and your commission calculates automatically from then on.
Spreadsheets work until a rate changes, a deal splits, or you reconcile owed versus paid. Those are exactly the errors that cost you money, and they are what CommissionIQ automates.
The spreadsheet is free but costs you hours every month and the risk of silent errors. CommissionIQ Solo is $99 a year and does the tracking for you.
Add your deals, set your rates, and watch your commission forecast come alive. 30 days free, no credit card.
