Ascentis is well suited for salaried, full-time staff on a regular schedule. The web-based employee self-service is very strong.

We do not find the payroll function to be well suited to our needs - and as mentioned previously, the NovaTime scheduling system could not be customized to work for us without spending upwards of $20K US.

Santis offers you everything in the sales call and delivers only a part of it. Implementation and often is unavailable to communicate with you at all for a long time

If you need a HR solution and a small to medium size company that does not require any kind of customized reporting then this would be an ideal product. If you require custom reports which nearly all companies require, and you like a responsive client then Ascentis is probably not for you

Ascentis Review

Rating: 7 out of 10

Ascentis has some great features, there are however some features that are still not available that are still being worked out. I rated a 7 due to the implementation/training was a bit all over the place and the reps were not prepared and/or did not ensure the right tools were available on in place.

Ascentis is great and could be even greater with a few tweaks

Ascentis is great for processing payroll and timekeeping. I also love the community site and the customer service when I call them is top-notch. Chris Warner is badass! Getting a hold of the tax specialist is somewhat harder and takes a while to get a response.
