Our Story
We started beqom in 2009 with a mission. A mission to make all the people of the world’s largest enterprises happy with our compensation solution.

In 2007, while working at SAP, we realized a huge gap in the enterprise software market. Companies like SAP, and their customers were not able to automate their compensation processes across one integrated solution.
Most large organizations leverage as a strategic differentiator, yet they were still managing compensation on spreadsheets or dated custom built solutions. This is when we realized we were facing the biggest market opportunity we had ever seen during our careers, which led to the creation of beqom.
Today, we manage compensation for over 150 large enterprises across the globe - in individual terms that’s about 3 million people that have their compensation managed by beqom.
Why beqom
Our mission is to make your people happy, because employee happiness is the best driver for success.
But happiness doesn’t come from paying your employees more money…It comes from making sure they understand:
- The company direction
- The link between their individual goals and the overall company strategy
- How they are rewarded and recognized for achieving these goals and if it is fair
Our Total Compensation Platform provides this level of understanding to your employees.
