Considered Both Products	Square Payroll Alan Bloxham Project Manager Chose Square Payroll ADP is much too expensive. Gusto was great for us but we found Square Payroll to be more cost effective, though the difference is not very much. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Employee Chose Square Payroll We used Quickbooks for a long time. Our payroll/HR person for the past 20+ years retired around the time our company was sold and bought. Her replacement had experience in using Square Payroll. We gave it a shot and liked it. We went live rather quickly and it did take some … Incentivized Helpful? Sasha Brito Marketing Director Chose Square Payroll We have tested the QuickBooks Online platform. Before using Square, we tried QuickBooks, but the experience we had was not to our liking. QuickBooks Online is a much more complicated platform to use, the interface is much larger and has complexity in the configuration of the … Incentivized Helpful? JK Joanna Knight Owner Chose Square Payroll I would say that Square Payroll has a step up in comparison to the competition. It is a great platform for small companies that don't need the resources and expense that bigger systems might offer. Square is the exact thing I was looking for. Helpful? Elizabeth Pampalone CEO Chose Square Payroll I liked patriot, but I found it to be more confusing than Square and took me too much time to setup. I setup Square Payroll in about an hour. I would also say the Square interface made more sense to me. I also like how Square offers more things like benefits, etc. that can be … Incentivized Helpful? JoAnna Cohen President Chose Square Payroll Cheaper and easier to implement Square payroll versus the competition. Accessible to the small business. Doesn't have a learning curve. Quick deployment to usage/adoption. The other options don't compare when looked at feature for feature vs. price. Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Square Payroll
Likelihood to Recommend	Block, Inc (Square) Square is an amazing platform to have total control over the payroll of all the employees of a company or a specific sector. This platform has a very good functionality to collect exact information on how long each employee works, that is one of its most outstanding characteristics, because it monitors work schedules and overtime and generates detailed reports on the work time of each employee. Square does not allow to schedule payments, that is one of the main problems, however, I consider that it is a very good option for small and medium-sized companies that are looking for a way to have more exact administrative control over the working hours of all their employees. It is a software that works in the cloud, so all the work information that is collected will remain safe without any risk of loss. Incentivized Sasha Brito Marketing Director Read full review
Pros	Block, Inc (Square) 1099 contractor payments are easy, and they provide you with the IRS filing as part of the service. Direct deposit/debit from your already connected account to the employee. Reporting and management features are simple yet inclusive. Low cost compared to alternative solutions. Incentivized JoAnna Cohen President Read full review
Cons	Block, Inc (Square) It's a bit pricey for larger companies at $5 per person paid per month. Has a bit of a learning curve that seems steeper than necessary reports can be confusing at first Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Block, Inc (Square) It could use a mobile-friendly interface. Other than that it's a simple layout and non-cluttered which allows you to get done what you need to get done. No unnecessary dodads or distractions. Incentivized JoAnna Cohen President Read full review
Support Rating	Block, Inc (Square) I think they have quick and helpful customer service reps, however, I give them a 9 because I have had to wait on hold for long periods of time before. JK Joanna Knight Owner Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Block, Inc (Square) I liked patriot, but I found it to be more confusing than Square and took me too much time to setup. I setup Square Payroll in about an hour. I would also say the Square interface made more sense to me. I also like how Square offers more things like benefits, etc. that can be added on. Incentivized Elizabeth Pampalone CEO Read full review
Return on Investment	Block, Inc (Square) Square Payroll has dramatically reduced the time it takes to process payroll. We could have a faster payroll with the Square POS integration for commission, but that is not something we've implemented yet. Incentivized Alan Bloxham Project Manager Read full review
