Xactly Receives Leading 2026 G2 Fall Awards

Aug 31, 2026
3 min read

G2's Fall 2026 Reports are in! Xactly earned recognition across the board, including: five enterprise Leader badges, a second consecutive Easiest Admin win, and two new badges in Sales Planning.

These rankings come from verified customers, the people who use Xactly's platform every day, not from Xactly itself. We believe that's what makes this recognition worth paying attention to: actual feedback from real revenue teams.

Read on to see every category Xactly was named a Leader in this cycle.

🏆

Leader — Enterprise

Sales Compensation, Sales Planning, Sales Performance Management, Compensation Management, & Performance Management

G2's Enterprise Grid® rankings come straight from verified customer reviews, not vendor submissions, which is exactly why "Leader" placement across five categories matters. Xactly held its #2 spot in Sales Compensation for a second consecutive cycle: a sign of our sustained leadership and not a single strong quarter.

Sales Planning is newer ground. A #4 Enterprise Grid® ranking puts Xactly on the map as a recognized planning leader, not just a compensation vendor.

Sales Performance Management, Compensation Management, and Performance Management all remain Leader categories as well, rounding out a five-category showing.

We believe this breadth of recognition from actual users reflects something real: enterprise teams trust Xactly across the full revenue lifecycle, not just one corner of it.

Xactly was named a Leader in the following categories:

#2 Sales Compensation Enterprise Grid®
#4 Sales Planning Enterprise Grid®
Sales Performance Management 
Compensation Management Enterprise Grid® — Leader
Performance Management Enterprise Grid® — Leader
⚡️

Easiest Admin — Enterprise

Usability Index for Compensation Management

Our platform touches every team across the full revenue cycle: reps checking commissions, managers approving plans, finance closing the books, and the admins running it all each day. G2's Usability Index rates that day-to-day experience directly.

Xactly held its #2 spot for the second consecutive cycle. We believe that consistency matters well beyond the admin seat: an easier platform means faster rollouts, fewer bottlenecks, and less time spent managing the tool instead of driving outcomes for the business.

🤝

Best Support — Enterprise

Relationship Index for Sales Planning — Enterprise

Software is only half of what our customers invest in. The other half is what happens when they need help: a fast answer, a fair conversation at renewal, a company that treats the relationship as a partnership.

G2's Relationship Index measures exactly that: customer satisfaction with the vendor relationship itself, quality of support, ease of doing business, and how a company shows up after the contract is signed.

This is a new badge type for Xactly this cycle, and it pairs naturally with the Sales Planning Leader badge above. Landing at #2 for Relationship Index for Sales Planning, the same cycle Xactly earned its first Sales Planning Leader badge, tells a clear story.

Sales Planning customers aren't just satisfied with the platform. They're satisfied with the people behind it.

🥇

Highest User Adoption — Enterprise

Implementation Index for Revenue Operations & Intelligence

Adoption is where enterprise ROI is made or lost. A platform that looks great in a demo but goes unused after rollout doesn't help anyone.

G2's Implementation Index for Revenue Operations & Intelligence measures how deeply enterprise teams actually use a product once it's live. Xactly held this recognition again this cycle, carrying over from Summer. For enterprise buyers evaluating a multi-year platform decision, that continuity matters as much as the ranking itself.

🚀

Momentum Leader — Overall

Xactly: A Measure of Forward Momentum

G2 introduced Momentum Grid® rankings to capture something a snapshot ranking can't: trajectory. This is about where a product is headed, not where it sits today.

Xactly earned new Momentum Grid® recognition for Compensation Management, alongside continued upward movement on the Compensation Management Overall Grid®. We feel this forward motion matters as much as any single rank. It signals a platform that keeps improving, not one coasting on past reviews.

Notable badges include:

Users Love Us

Trusted and Loved by Customers

More than 20 real-life customers rated Xactly 4.0 stars or higher. That kind of feedback only comes from people who use and see the benefit of the platform in their daily responsibilities.

The software people don't enjoy using becomes software they work around: a shadow spreadsheet here, a manual double-check there, a workflow held together by habit instead of the tool itself. None of that shows up in a demo. It shows up later, in support tickets, in slower adoption, in a rep who stops trusting what the screen tells them.

Happier users mean higher adoption, fewer support tickets, and a platform nobody on the revenue team dreads opening on a Monday morning.

Discover The Reason Enterprise Companies Choose Xactly

Five Leader badges. Two brand-new categories. A customer base that keeps rating Xactly among the best it works with. We believe that record reflects more than one good cycle: it's a platform enterprise teams can build on with confidence.
