EASY TO USE
- Their client service teams are great and they really take the time to get you to understand something you can tell they really care about the product and care that you maximize your system to the best of its ability.
- We hire people through Paycom we don't have the applicant tracking set-up yet but it still easy to navigate through to hire someone and to start the background process very easy.
- Pulling payroll is really easy but I hear its going to be even easier can't wait to learn.
Cons
- Accrual reports and accrual form 6 needs to be better.
- Pushing benefits can be tricky and FMLA is challenging
- I have one negative and that's because our PTO policy is different and Paycom can't support it and that's why it was hard to pull reports.
Paycom lived up to my expectations
- Designated customer service rep.
- Software updates and compliance with latest payroll changes.
- Doesn't outsource various components to others, it is all Paycom.
- Continued training via webinars or documents in the help section.
- Implementation was awesome.
Paycom - the system I measure all others up against!
- PAF - Personnel Action Forms, makes changes easier, faster, electronic, and through routing and approval, are life and driven by the effective date
- Online benefit enrollment - the easiest process I have ever seen
- BETI - the new functionality that allows employees to review and approve their paychecks prior to posting payroll - catches errors before payroll is finalized, and helps employees have a better understanding in acknowledging the accuracy of their pay.
- On-line Self On-boarding. Saves our team time and improves accuracy!
- Applicant tracking - from posting the job to the offer and hire - keeps track of candidates through the entire process - all in one system!
- Payroll has never been so easy! BETI has cut down my processing time by more than half!
- Excellent App! Our employees and managers LOVE it! They can approve things with ease right from their phones.
Cons
- Ability to customize (add fields) to some of the canned reports
- The minor issue of setting up payroll processing schedules - if you have different deductions based on the payroll within the month - some additional ability to set it up and forget it... it does require some additional monitoring
- The manual check process is easy - but it would be helpful if the printed check included the routing numbers and account numbers coded at the bottom - we have had to do some editing to print the checks to match our check stock - apparently that is not a current option for them.
Easy to Use
- Paycom is user-friendly; easy to record my time.
- Paycom allows mobile access so that I can log in from my cellphone.
- Paycom offers a comment section in order to thoroughly record information regarding any overtime hours.
Cons
- Not very clear as to why Paycom has decided to use military time for the time sheets. Perhaps that feature could be a little easier to manage.
- When adding vacation or sick time, the process seems a little difficult for some who are not used to having to record their time on the computer.
- The 'My Accruals' area is not understandable at all... the accrual amounts, limits and dates are very confusing, especially the amounts. Many do not understand how to calculate these numbers, and it gives too much work for the Payroll Administrator.
