Pros

Onboarding new hires is convenient and easy with Heartland Hire!
Employees have easy access to paystubs and W-2 as soon as they become available.
Heartlands dashboard of reminders keeps me on track for payroll processing.

Cons

Sometimes the system (geocode) will not allow me to process address changes by asking for help from our specialist.
Response for assistance is usually a lot slower when our dedicated specialist is not available.

Most Important Features

Heartland Hire is a lifesaver for the onboarding process!
The time entry grid on Heartland is somewhat customizable
Using Heartland Hire helps process E-verify and background checks easily.

Return on Investment

By using Heartland, we cave both time and money by making our labor allocation reporting simpler
Using Heartland onboarding saves so much time by making the overall onboarding process efficient.
By using Heartland for our compliance needs through onboarding, such as background checks (GoodHire) and E-verify, we have peace of mind.

Bradley Gill View profile

co-founder in Professional Services at 360 Labs (1-10 employees employees)

Pros

The account rep is very responsive and usually gets back to my emails quickly.
The online system is really easy to use.
They offer a separate page for employees to log in for pay stubs and another log in for admin.

Cons

Sometimes I don't receive the email to remind me to process payroll.
The local rep that helped with the setup is no longer with the company and I don't have anyone to contact locally if needed.
I wish there was a one click button so that I could just repeat the same payroll as last time.

Return on Investment

The investment to have them process our payroll is minimal and well worth it.
They file our state quarterly forms for us.
They also provide W-2 and 1099 printing which makes it a huge time-saver come tax time.
