Companies shouldn't give out inflationary rises. Assuming they're happy with you they should pay the market rate - what it would take to replace you in the job you do at the level you do it. If they do that you shouldn't have to worry bout being under paid, they shouldn't be worried about over paying you and for most roles it's pretty easy to work out. Plus from a selfish point of view anyone in IT would have done better than inflation over the past decade.
