Paycor's pricing for small, mid, and enterprise companies varies based on product bundle and company size. Because Paycor HR software is built to help businesses scale and grow, plans are based on the mix of HR products needed, and company size. Payroll is at the core of Paycor's offering, and their products are sold as a part of their payroll and HR platform.
We selected isolved over Evolution Payroll because we needed more than a standalone payroll system; we wanted integrated HR, time, and benefits so our team could manage the full employee lifecycle in one place.
This is the only platform I have ever used. I started in the HR/Payroll profession only 10 years ago, this is the only system I am familiar with. It has been so easy to learn and use, I am not interested in looking elsewhere
I used the other platforms in previous companies. isolved was in place when I started here 3 years ago. I found the system effective for the amount of staff we have. In previous roles I worked with larger groups and I am not sure in a restaurant industry or company of 1500 …
I can never find reports I need to gather all of the information about a client needed for a new set up. This goes back to why I love isolved reports so much. There is literally a report for anything you need. I end up having to screenshot information from other payroll …
isolved was superior to all of these in every way. It really was like a one-stop shop for us for everything the HR team needed and was extremely user friendly for our employees and managers. I cannot speak highly enough about this platform especially when comparing to other …
In the car business Reynolds is very popular program. It is however not up to date or speed with all of the HR/Payroll needs of all of our companies. Its designed more for the sales and service side of business. I get sales calls and visits weekly from all the major competitors …
Having both payroll and timekeeping in one system is great. You just really have to watch the permissions. When it's separate, there is no chance of a Lead seeing something they shouldn't so when it's together you have to set things up correctly.
Not even comparable. I used Workday and Smart Track simultaneously and it was a nightmare. Workday is not user friendly. It is almost impossible to learn on your own. Smart Track was not a horrible system, but because it required us to also use Workday it made me dislike it. …
isolved provides a system and capabilities right at the sweet spot for our organizations. It is not overly complex and feature laden as to make it confusing and complex. On the other hand, it is fully functional and effective at the core requirements of HR and payroll without …
The customer service support level is vastly superior to that of ADP Workforce Now. The payroll reporting functionality is much more robust on ADP Workforce Now's end than that of isolved. isolved is easier to use for both the payroll practitioner and the employees than that of …
Proliant is a great product, but isolved allows one database. Asure did not stack up as the tax engine and overall platform were very much suited for a small business in a single state.
Not even in the same ballpark. Vfficient was an exercise in frustration and a poorly designed system with very little flexibility. isolved was the exact opposite and was excactly what we needed from the minute it was installed.
Asure was a very small business platform with a very weak tax engine, so isolved has been a huge improvement for us. I would say in comparison to Proliant, isolved lacks on the report writer, true SSO with Employee Navigator and the report writer. UKG is similar in the sense of …
Paycor is a decent rival at a much lower price point. It has a lot of the functionality of its competitors at a lower price. I believe its general customer service is one of the best that I have dealt with. We don't have personalized customer service reps or teams which can …
We selected Paycor due to price and the demo website was very user friendly. At the time, we did not realize that the demo site would not be an accurate reflection of what we were purchasing.
I have used Full Stack in the past, which isn't listed in the listings. And for the most part, it worked out well, however, it has its far share of issues. It was expensive, but also had some data tacking problems where all of our employees information was messed up.
AS400, JIS, Quickbooks, Viventium All these systems have their pros and cons. I do prefer Paycor but customer service gap and rising vendor cost is starting to affect loyalty.
We selected Paycor because of the user-friendly aspect and the fact that they are willing to work with us on what parts of the software we want to utilize. The price was also a big reason why we choose Paycor.
Paycor seems to be the best for other systems integrations and reporting. The easy of set up and integrations into other platforms is great. While the report building is more robust than ADP with and easier approach to creating the reports. I would recommend Paycor over ADP as …
ADP was more expensive and we didn't utilize any of the modules because they were all an additional price.
Here we have way more features and it is a lot easier to navigate so it has been helpful to have these features and all in one place rather than using a bunch of other …
The sales team was much better in terms of handling our needs, the products were overall better, and they have an extremely competitive price. We thought that Paycor was the best fit even though they were not the cheapest due to our needs and how they addressed them. It was a …
I have not yet run into a scenario that isolved is not appropriate. There have been a few specific functionalities that isolved couldn't accommodate, such as paid PTO plans. If employees frequently switch between different legal companies with different EINs, isolved really isn't built to handle that, and we've had to come up with creative solutions.
The Open enrollment tool is excellent. They need to improve the reporting tool and speed up the use of AI. I've seen other system demos and their integration of AI seems sophisticated in comparision to Paycor's. Paycor has integrated some AI into analytics but it lacking in terms of what it can do
isolved is incredibly accurate and effective for processing out payroll and executing payment of wages. isolved is incredibly accurate and effective for processing out payroll and executing payments for wages.
The system enables employees to access their own data and perform their own leave management and pay maintenance without risk.
The data analysis and reporting/data export functions are second to none. It allows access to and manipulation of fully relational employee records and information.
Onboarding works very well for us with a lot of Self-Service for employees it gives us time back and ensures data accuracy is in the employees control.
Recruiting works well because it links to specific jobs and automatically posts jobs when an employee is separated from service.
Tax filings work fairly well for us and have always been accurate.
A way to email hiring managers and our IT department at the same time with a template would save us from so much email communication
Transfer all attached documents such as interview notes from iHired applicants to isolved employee documents would save us time uploading into multiple places
Administrative/C-Suite level of canned reports and dashboards
Displaying company reminders or documents to sign that are urgent in a way that doesn’t allow an employee to clock out until they have completed the task.
Due to the continued problems (time clock disconnects, regular post-update issues) and users' negative attitude, we are unlikely to renew. Another important factor is that TF is US-centric, so it does not account for local Philippine specifics, which is important to us.
The product is really good overall. The customer service is not the best and the benefits administration is kind of painful. However, the good outweighs the bad. We might get a different benefit admin system that can be integrated into Paycor. My controller doesn't want to switch anything for a [long] time.
It is very intuitive and user friendly. iSolved is always updating and improving things before they even become a problem. I like how they inform us of the new updates and provide us with the details of what is changing and how it will improve the usuage.
Glitches. So many glitches. The customer service number provides basic troubleshooting, which doesn’t help; some issues take weeks to resolve, with no apparent reason why they occur. The system does not work on Safari. We have dealt with Payroll not working, which has caused a manual payroll to be run. Paycor representatives do not provide any assistance.
Payroll due dates and send to us at the beginning of the year, with email reminders for holidays. The support email address is fairly fast, within 24-48 hours. But if something is needed immediately, I can just call and they help me out right then.
I feel like Paycor is always up and running! If they are planning downtime, they communicate it clearly. Every once in a while, I get something that says the system isn't working but it is usually back up within the hour. I typically find by the time that the employees complain about it, that it is resolved within the system.
We do not use the integration, so we have a csv file that I upload manually for payroll. That is our decision based on the software at our restaurants. Pages loaded fairly quickly, but reports to pdf lag about 15-20 seconds
For the most part, everything moves super fast. There are a few sections (Expense Management) that sometimes take a bit to load correctly. Or if they are interesting, it takes a minute to talk to each other! But reports are quickly downloaded and available! Even data heavy reports run fairly fast!
They are very responsive and they have support for the specific issues. Clients receive a dedicated Support Representative with a back up dedicated support team. They also receive an Account Manager who follows up quarterly to discuss the company and future needs. They do have a support ticket hub, but it still needs a little work to fine tune it.
I feel like support will transfer you back and forth between departments and put you on hold forever. I believe it is very difficult to see the status of an open ticket. During my experience, it feels like the client has to push all communication and request updates from support regularly.
The training was helpful and covered the basic functionality of the system, but it did not stand out as exceptional. The presenter was knowledgeable and answered questions appropriately, but much of the content felt focused on standard product features rather than our specific business processes and use cases. I would have liked to see more hands-on exercises, deeper workflow examples, and practical demonstrations tied to real-world scenarios. Overall, the training was good and provided value, but there is opportunity to make it more engaging, more customized to our organization, and more impactful for long-term user adoption.
We loved taking the course, we went through most of them before we went live and I believe that was very helpful. The online training helped us learn to navigate in the program. We still refer to the training and assign our managers and supervisors to it as well. I highly recommend using it. We have also been able to attend the Connect Conferences with are extremely valuable and we learn tips and tricks to help us better utilize our system.
The online training was adequate and covered the core functionality of the platform, but it felt similar to many standard software training libraries available today. The content was easy to access and generally well organized, but it lacked the depth, interactivity, and real-world application needed to make it particularly memorable or impactful. I would have liked to see more role-based learning paths, practical business scenarios, hands-on exercises, and guidance tailored to different user groups. Overall, the training met basic expectations and provided useful information, but it did not differentiate itself from typical web-based training programs offered by most HCM providers.
The system was very cumbersome setting up as well as time consuming. There were times I just wanted to walk away and sometimes I did have to get up and walk away for a break and come back with a fresh perspective. The setup took me over a period of two to three months getting it to serve the purposes that we needed it two. I am very intuitive when it comes to computer software however getting all the right buttons checked in order for it to do what I needed didn't always work.
I've been through a payroll software implementation multiple times in my career, ranging from upgrades to an existing platform to complete replacement of providers. This implementation was the easiest from the standpoint of confidence in my implementation personnel. The implementation consultants at Paycor were AMAZINGLY knowledgeable about the software and offered us advice at every step of the way. We never had any concerns that they didn't know what we wanted or needed.
I used the other platforms in previous companies. isolved was in place when I started here 3 years ago. I found the system effective for the amount of staff we have. In previous roles I worked with larger groups and I am not sure in a restaurant industry or company of 1500 employees isolved is the right fit.
The sales team was much better in terms of handling our needs, the products were overall better, and they have an extremely competitive price. We thought that Paycor was the best fit even though they were not the cheapest due to our needs and how they addressed them. It was a tossup between Paylocity and Paycor
We are a company of about 135 people at 9 locations in 2 towns. We were able to set locations and departments, and also have each location seperate so only that manager can see their employees.
I gave it a 10 because we only use it across one organization. However, it has allowed us to break it into multiple departments and layers of management. It is also easy for us to utilize across different locations but still under one master company. They have always provided us support when we decide to change something on an organizational level
Electronic Timecards in the app - less room for error manually figuring punch cards and better use of time management.
Available Reports streamline my workload - Employee data, payroll records all at the click of a button in a report. Weekly, Quarterly and Year End data is easy access for all companies on one site.
90% Positive 10% negative on using personal cell phones for the app to clock in and out. Can't make everyone happy 100% of the time... we try though!
Positive impact on employees with the security settings on their phone. They didn't like the hassle in the beginning, but understood why it was important to protect their data.
By streamlining job postings and candidate tracking Paycor Recruiting has helped shorten the average time to fill for our job postings from an average of 45 days days to 32 days (for certain job postings). This is due to the efficiency of the system when moving candidates through the pipeline.
Recruiting costs have lowered due to the systems ability to post openings to multiple job board from one central location. This takes a lot of the administrative burden off recruiters and saves us time on manual follow ups and agency fees.
Higher quality candidates! The tools Paycor Recruiting offers has provided the recruiters with a more effective form of evaluation. This leads to more informed decisions which results in better quality hires. When people stay longer this reduces turnover related costs.
