- Spend less time on manual payroll calculations
- Spend less time on manual payroll reports filing
- Cost adjusts based on number of employees
- Intuit Online Payroll (discontinued) and RUN Powered by ADP®
Gusto is better than IOP because Gusto files payroll returns and pays payroll taxes automatically. IOP also does not have a good support feature. Gusto is better than ADP because they are more responsive and have a better and more extensive website.

Gusto Makes Payroll Painless
We use Gusto organization-wide as our payroll processor. Since we're a smaller business, having user-friendly tools on the administrative end is a huge help, since payroll is not being run by a dedicated HR team. We also love how it integrates easily with every other tool we need it to, from time tracking to accounting.
- Incredibly user-friendly.
- Excellent support.
- All the necessary integrations.
- Wish it had its own built in time-tracking to remove the need of a separate tool.
- Live chat for lower tiers of service.

There's no comparison here. Any other payroll tool we've ever looked at just can't measure up, at least for our small business use. I'm sure there are some niche applications we're missing, but it just isn't an issue for us. Gusto has a better UI, better support, employees enjoy it more, etc...
