Heartland Payroll+ has proven to be a valuable tool for small businesses in streamlining their payroll and onboarding processes. For example, a small video production company relies on the software to accurately and timely process payrolls for their employees. With the assistance of a representative during setup and a remote account manager handling the ongoing payroll tasks, the company can ensure that their employees are paid correctly. Additionally, the software's integration with E-verify and Good Hire seamlessly facilitates background checks during the onboarding process.

Furthermore, Heartland Payroll+ is beneficial for medical practices with multiple facilities and scattered employees. These practices have found that the software simplifies the hiring process by ensuring all necessary documentation is in place and securely stored in the cloud. The ability to centralize employee documents in one secure location allows employees to access their pay stubs at any time. Moreover, Heartland Payroll+'s personal service, fixed payroll fee, and lack of sales calls have received high recommendations from users.

However, some users have faced challenges when using Heartland Payroll+. For instance, a user who utilized the product for both payroll processing and credit card processing terminated the latter due to cost and customer service issues. Furthermore, there have been instances where users experienced difficulties with customer service and a lack of immediate tech support during transitions, leading to frustration and perceived poor communication. Additionally, some users encountered problems with timely filing of 941 forms and had to search for emails due to changes in representatives. Despite these challenges, many users find that Heartland Payroll+ provides a cost-effective solution compared to other payroll providers.

Convenient Onboarding Process with Heartland Hire: Many users have commended Heartland Payroll+'s feature called Heartland Hire, which facilitates a seamless onboarding process for new hires. This indicates that the software provides a convenient and efficient solution for bringing new employees on board, streamlining administrative tasks associated with hiring and integrating them into the payroll system.

Missing Email Reminders: Some users have expressed frustration with not receiving email reminders for payroll processing, which has led to potential issues in managing payroll in a timely manner.

Lack of Local Support: Several reviewers have mentioned the lack of accessible local support after their setup representative departed. This highlights the need for readily available contact in case of any issues or questions that may arise.

Inconvenient Payroll Repeating Process: Users have desired a one-click button feature to easily repeat the same payroll from the previous period, indicating that the current process may be time-consuming or inconvenient.

Users highly recommend Heartland for its personal and attentive service, which includes quick and knowledgeable customer support. They suggest giving Heartland a try for payroll processing and utilizing their useful HR portal. Additionally, users recommend taking the time to learn how to generate reports during implementation. They believe that Heartland is worth making the switch to for its ease of use and online portal. Users also highly recommend signing up with Heartland for payroll processing and onboarding assistance. They suggest spending time during implementation to learn how to run census and payroll reports. Overall, users think that Heartland provides great service, excellent support, and is a reliable payroll company.

  • White-glove customer support. All employees are in the United States and they must pay them well, because they don't seem to have turnover there.
  • Technology is awesome. We have Payroll, HR, T&A, ATS, and onboarding with them.
  • Their Tax Credit tech is amazing. I received more money in tax credits last year than payroll cost me. That's a net positive!
  • Compliance with their HR team is great, and they don't hit you over the head on the price for it.
  • Pricing is fantastic with a 3-year price lock. No BS discounting that jumps back up a year later.

Reliable and efficient payroll solutions for a busy office environment.

  • Cheap payroll processing but [in my opinion] you get what you pay for
  • [In my experience] great ability to frustrate their customers
  • Geat for the economy because [I feel] they hire so many different people and [in my experience] they don't hang around [so] you don't know who your rep is
