Gordon vs QCommission
A modern alternative to QCommission for small sales teams
QCommission is a capable, long-running commission calculator with real CRM integrations. For a team under 20 reps, it also costs 2-3x more and still ships an on-premises option.
Gordon
$57/mo
QCommission
$120+/mo
Example: a 1 admin + 7 rep team. Gordon: $29 base + 7 × $4/seat = $57/mo. QCommission: $15/user/mo × 8 users = $120/mo, or their $200/mo tiered plan — whichever they'd actually quote you.
Why teams switch
Built for 2026, not migrated from 2006
QCommission is still offered as an on-premises install alongside its cloud version — a sign of its age. Gordon is cloud-only, modern, and has no legacy architecture to work around.
Cheaper at the team size that matters
QCommission's per-user pricing looks reasonable until you price out a real small team. Gordon's flat base plus cheap seats comes out meaningfully lower for 5-15 reps.
Reliability reports worth knowing about
Some QCommission users report occasional glitches, import errors, and crashes once the system is configured, per recent Capterra reviews. Worth checking current reviews yourself before you commit.
