Given that Staples is such a fast moving, data-driven company, it is imperative to have timely information to make decisions. HighRoads accomplishes this and makes it easy with its real-time data in a standard, presentation-ready format."

Benchmark - HR Compare

HighRoads is the only company providing employers year-round access to real health care plans and cost data for easy, customized, unbiased benchmarking. Through the award winning The Lab®, employers have real-time access to in-depth plan and cost information, allowing benefits teams to compare their plans with other organizations by industry, geography, company size, plan type and employee type.
Real-time benefits benchmarking is available through:
- A free trial
- Unlimited annual subscription

Gathering and accessing current, thorough data has long been a major roadblock for benefits experts. Information was either too high-level or outdated - severely limiting its usefulness in helping HR teams evaluate their existing plans and understand current trends in the marketplace. HR Compare provides real data, not based on surveys that are often compromised, and has the added benefit of allowing comparisons to peers without the need for expensive consultants.
HR Compare features include:
- Over 8,500 real medical plan designs and rates, representing over 30 million lives, updated in real time throughout the year
- Customized on-demand benchmark reports by industry, geography, company size, plan type, employee type, and plan provision
- Executive-level reports available in three optional formats
- No time-consuming surveys to complete
