    I think as a small business owner, this system gives peace of mind. When I'm onboarding an employee I can automatically integrate the process with Gmail and Quickbooks. I feel like they are always doing work in the background and I don't have to keep checking up on them or verifying the work that's been done

    Workday is well suited for managing employees throughout their full life cycle. It excels at housing employee data from the start of their time with the company through their departure. Workday is less suited to payroll functions, which could be more robust.

    Pros
    TriNet
    • Payroll services in all 50 states, including payroll tax filings
    • Integrations with tools like QuickBooks, Google Workspace, Slack, and Human Interest (401(k))
    • Simple yet powerful mobile app for employees to access information including paystubs, benefits, and time off requests
    • Streamlined admin portal for People Ops professionals

    • The flexibility of going beyond handling the accounts, where we can handle cash, assets, and accounting simultaneously for the customer.
    • The single platform offers grants management where you can organize the lifecycle of the grants and synchronize it with any criteria of grant closing out scheme.
    • I personally liked Project billing with the essence of evaluating project revenue and nice reporting templates that can be shared with the customer at any stage of the project while having the flexibility of auditing the reported cost.

    Cons
    TriNet
    • Support doesn't exist once you are a customer
    • Tax team has a 3-6 month response time
    • Poor Menu/Navigation structure
    • Fails to pay taxes on time, results in delinquency notices and fees
    • Glitchy UI, sometimes you need to wait a day or two for a section to work again
    • Feels like a perpetual beta product, nothing polished about it

    Workday
    • Some of the Workday updates last till like 10 in the morning which prevents employees to clock in and check their times and some cases their schedules
    • Workday can work on opening documents quicker instead of taking couple of minutes or notifying the user when they are ready to download

    We've already renewed after our first year with Zenefits due to the cost savings, ease of administration, reduction in overhead required to perform HR functions, and the employees happily embracing and liking the software. I've found employees generally hate anything new, but we've had no complaints about Zenefits outside the first few weeks of getting used to it.

    Usability
    TriNet
    It's extremely user friendly and customer service is super helpful. The app needed help a while back but it has greatly improved. There were issues with files being cut off, and when I was onboarded, it actually cut my offer letter off hiding important information. Since then, it's been fixed so they are continually improving.

    Workday is easy enough navigate, as long as it is properly set up. With that said, it can be put together in a modular fashion as well, allowing for a very high degree of flexibility in terms of design and process delegation. Finally, it makes consolidation achievable in times previously unthinkable.

    Not good at all. Basically I typically feel like they can solve the issue at hand. However, they take forever and it never feels like they really care. It can be frustrating that the agent will never speak with you on the phone or just give you their direct contact info so that you can continue to follow up on the same issue. Once they "close" the issue - you have to go back to the main customer service email or line again, even though it may be related to something you've contacted them about in the past

    Unfortunately I do not have any insights on the implementation of Zenefits as I was not employed with this company when Zenefits was introduced. Based on how effortless it is to use Zenefits, I wouldn't image there would be many issues with the implementation of Zenefits

    Zenefits has been a better tool for our purposes than Paychex Flex. While Zenefits is a fairly rigid tool without a lot of options for customization, Paychex has even fewer options for customization and their customer services is even more difficult to deal with

    Despite Airtable also being easier to use one thing that differentiates and put forth Workday Financial Management tool above is it's key features and better suited functionality for handling confidential data. The other positive note where Workday Financial Management performs high is it key analytics tool that's easier to use and representation of information into insightful dashboards.

    Return on Investment
    TriNet
    • California Meal Break Violations cost a full hour of each employees pay rate. If an employee clocks in 1 minute early it costs us at least 10.50 (minimum wage Ca, 15.00 in Los Angeles) which adds up quickly. We had 37 meal break violations when we first rolled it out. They need to add a feature that disallows them to clock in ahead of 30 minutes, or add a feature that shows them how long they've been on break.

    • We were able to combine 4 different HR modules into one system.
    • We reduced data breach incidents by 95% after shifting to Workday. One of our legacy softwares had vulnerabilities.
    • The initial learning curve was higher than projected. We spent about a week to 10 days extra time deploying it, which affected the profit center that year.
