Lanteria HR vs. PeopleGuru™

Lanteria HR is great for an HR department that's trying to get away from managing multiple spreadsheets or archaic systems. It allows you to store all your data in-house so it's not stored on some cloud server/service. Reporting and workflow setups are great and since it uses SharePoint, Active Directory integration works great as well.

I'd say PeopleGuru is well suited for most businesses -- a more significant (200+ employees) company may want to use something with a sleeker design. This provider is willing to work with cannabis businesses, which is unusual for payroll providers now.

• As much as I like the reporting, it could be a little more flexible. Can't add interview notes to reporting.
• Built on SharePoint, so any functionality limitations of SharePoint are going to be there.
• Support is great, but at times language barrier can be a little challenging.
• Had a bad experience with the US Sales team here. Wasn't responsive but finally got someone from another region to help us.

• Position change future dating
• Timecard reporting including approval (multiple reports to show timecard with approval)
• W2 Reconciliation Reports (had to calculate wages to verify accuracy)
• Benefit Plan effective dating & how it affects the deduction effective dating (results in payroll errors if not careful)

The customer service is great for the most part. There are a few issues with tax filings but overall I am pleased with the customer service provided by PeopleGuru.

The trainer was difficult to understand.

The implementation process was cumbersome and stressful. It took an extremely long time to complete this process. We had to learn a lot on the fly because this was the first implementation for all of us. The process would have been a lot easier if there was a third party that could assist with a lot of the work required to transfer and verify data.

PeopleGuru is better than other cannabis-friendly payroll systems, like CheckWriters or MyPaperlessOffice (companies so small they were not available in your dropdown). It is not as good as bigger companies that are not cannabis-friendly, like ADP or Paylocity. ADP is super expensive but given the choice I would be with Paylocity over PeopleGuru.
