Palette is cloud-based sales compensation software for finance, revenue operations, sales, and management teams. It automates commission calculations from CRM, billing, and database data, while supporting configurable rules, quotas, dashboards, payout schedules, monthly statements, payroll exports, approvals, and revenue reconciliation. Its real-time visibility is suited to teams that need current commission status and a clear record of changes.

The three plans build from commission automation and quota management to more advanced controls. Starter includes approval workflows, 20+ native data integration connectors, and unlimited admin seats. Scale adds clawbacks, multi-currency, advanced role-based access control, and live chat support. Enterprise adds single sign-on, a dedicated customer success contact, a dedicated Slack support channel, and custom data integrations. Pricing is available through sales, and annual billing offers savings.

Palette’s strongest functional area is the connection between calculation and review. Teams can compare scenarios, apply conditional payout schedules, approve statements, export payroll data, track historical changes, and reconcile revenue with CRM data. Integrations include Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Close, Outreach, Bullhorn, Sellsy, Stripe, Chargebee, NetSuite, Xero, QuickBooks Online, SaaSOptics, Pennylane, and Snowflake. Teams that need real-time statements, reconciliation, and configurable compensation workflows should consider Palette. Organizations seeking publicly listed plan amounts or a non-web platform may prefer another option.
