The updated comparison chart below for CompGeo Online Salary and Compensation Survey Research Products and Services shows dramatic differences between CompGeo Online and other sources with regards to Reliability, Quality, Flexibility and Comprehensiveness.

Salary Survey sites that provide multiple coded salary survey sources are often using private copyrighted information without permission.

Many other online salary survey sites don't even use salary survey data - they use geographic salary differentials or scan classified ads - like geographic salary 'calculators' these are woefully inaccurate.

Salary Source sites that present Cost of Living data often use such data to 'estimate' (guess) at competitive market rates - this is often a major problem with the 'free' salary information sites.
