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.

Highly Responsive Account Representative: Users have consistently praised the account representative of Heartland Payroll+ for their prompt and helpful communication. Several users have expressed satisfaction with quick email responses, indicating that the account representative is highly responsive to customer inquiries.

Extremely Easy to Use Online System: The online system of Heartland Payroll+ has been described as extremely user-friendly by numerous reviewers. Customers find it convenient to navigate through the software and perform tasks effortlessly. This positive sentiment suggests that the software's interface and functionality are intuitive, making it easy for users to manage their payroll-related activities.

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.

Only Paylocity has comparable technology but costs way more. The customer support at all 3 of these companies is a nightmare. This isn't news to anyone who has been in business for a while. If you're a broker, ADP and Paychex are going to try and steal your clients every day.

Heartland was a good fit for our company because they were willing to work with us to create the reports we need. A former payroll resource wanted to charge for reporting changes.

I've considered moving payroll over to QuickBooks Online so that everything is in one place, but it would probably take too much work considering that our current system works really well. I think QuickBooks would confuse me, honestly. There are other systems that offer different user interfaces that are neat looking, but I haven't done too much research because Heartland Payroll offered me a really good deal for processing since we are a small company.

We have used both Paychex and ADP and find them to be annoying. They both share your information so we get constant sales calls and emails for all their products and we can never get rid of them because they do not have an unsubscribe option. They do have better online platforms though. We selected Heartland Payroll to support Shannon L., who is the best.
