Spiff

Salesforce-native SPM (now part of Salesforce Revenue Cloud).

By Salesforce, Inc. · Founded 2017 · Sandy, UT · public

Spiff was a modern SPM challenger founded 2017 in Salt Lake City, focused on Salesforce-native commission management with strong rep UX and no-code plan modeling. Acquired by Salesforce in February 2024 for $419M and being absorbed into Salesforce Revenue Cloud. The product covers commission calculation, plan modeling, rep dashboards, and Salesforce-native architecture. Strengths: native Salesforce architecture (no sync), strong fit for Salesforce-anchored commission management, modern UX (pre-acquisition heritage), and tight integration with Salesforce CPQ/Revenue Cloud. Best fit for Salesforce-committed buyers wanting one-vendor consolidation. Trade-offs (and these are the central buyer story for Spiff in 2026): the Salesforce acquisition introduces meaningful integration risk and uncertainty about Spiff future as a standalone product. Salesforce has been clear that Spiff will be absorbed into Revenue Cloud; standalone roadmap commitments are uncertain. Buyers should evaluate Spiff as a Salesforce module rather than independent SPM trajectory.

  • “We loved Spiff pre-Salesforce. Post-acquisition, we are evaluating CaptivateIQ because the standalone roadmap is unclear and our Salesforce account exec is steering us toward Revenue Cloud bundling.”
