Oluwanifemi A. This is brilliant. That distinction between 'Confidence' vs 'Power' is exactly what we were missing. We were literally debating a technical 'Diff View' and you just saved us from building something scary/useless. Sending you a DM. would love to take you up on that offer to jam. That 'Before/After Impact' concept is a game changer.

That line 'Less power, more confidence' is honestly the best insight I've heard all week. We’re actually betting the whole product on exactly that (building an immutable 'Audit Log' and 'Plain English' summaries instead of complex formula builders). Quick Q: When you say 'Versioned Logic' are you looking for something like 'Git for Commissions' (where you can roll back rule changes), or just a simple log of who changed the deal value?

What Is the Most Unwanted Feature in Your Commission Tool?

Hey everyone, I’m currently building a lean alternative to the big commission platforms (Spiff, etc.), and I’m trying strictly to avoid 'feature bloat.' For those of you managing commissions: What is the ONE feature in your current tool that you absolutely hate (or never use)? I want to make sure I don't waste time building things nobody actually wants. Appreciate the roast!

Paul W. This is pure gold. especially your point about the 'Black Box' I’ve heard so many Ops leaders say they prefer Excel just because they can actually SEE the math, even if it's messy. That transparency is exactly what I'm trying to solve. Thanks for the detailed breakdown!

Sales Commission Disputes: Key Challenges Faced by Ops Teams

Hi everyone 👋 I’m working on a research project regarding Sales Commission Disputes and how they affect Ops teams. I’m trying to understand for those of you running manual spreadsheets OR struggling with your current commission software, what is the biggest "time suck" during month-end close?

1.
Data Integrity: Cleaning messy CRM exports before you can even start math.
2.
The Logic Trap: Managing complex splits, overrides, and tier changes manually.
3.
The "Black Box" Problem: Reps disputing the numbers because they don't trust the tool/sheet.
4.
Payout Execution: The actual back-and-forth with Finance to get the money out.

Any insight (or venting!) would be super helpful for my research. Thanks in advance!
