Paycor Reviews

Really appreciated how user-friendly the service was. I was able to get everything up and running in under an hour and it seems like it works pretty consistently. I was a little disappointed that some of the services such as setup and yearly tax runs were additional charges, whereas other companies I looked at included this for free at a much lower overall cost.

If you want a user friendly system but don't care about price or customer service then this is a good option for you. If you don't want prices jacked (rather rates or shipping) and don't want lousy customer service then you need to go else where because that's what you'll get here.

In the past few months, one of my employees did not get paid. Something was manually checked by me that I did not know I checked. Although it took several calls and emails and about a week, the representative from Paycor talked me through how to print a check from the school's account but show it through Paycor.

I would highly recommend Paycor. I have used other payroll and HR platforms in the past and this one is by far the easiest to use.

Running payroll is very easy and as is adding employees.

I get the impression that Paycor would be a better system if you have the entire system. Using Paycor for payroll is fine, but there is more that it can be used for, however, the system is a-la-carte.

Paycor is well suited to meet basic payroll and HR management needs. They do a fine job of maintaining tax records and timely filing. The HR system supports multiple levels of supervision. Benefit tracking works well with some upfront work. Cost effective for mid-sized users. Does not require advanced technical skills to work with.

Paycor makes it easy when it comes to being compliant with regulations.

I would recommend Paycor without reservation.

Paycor does a good job with tax related issues; however, their customer service is very lacking. The people available to help often do not know how to fix issues. They will not let you talk to IT directly or submit work tickets; you have to go through a customer service representative. If you don't have a good representative assigned to you then you get nowhere.

It is definitely better suited for smaller employers. As an example, there's this new hire wizard in Paycor that lets you add on new hires, but then you have to click through a few items to get to the company set up and add that employee to the right policy group (i.e.: whether or not they get holiday pay, etc.) and then a few more clicks to set up PTO accrual and then a few more for customizing their access rights. So, the wizard helps at the beginning but then drops off for the other half of the process. There's a lot of things in Paycor where it seems streamlined at first but requires a lot more clicks than if it were organized in a better fashion. I believe this is just part of its development and will get better with time, but I still couldn't recommend Paycor with confidence to a bigger employer.

For our small business the cost and ease of use of Paycor was a good fit. Some of the bigger payroll processing firms don't address the needs of a small enterprise like ours.

Better suited for a mid-level company with a knowledgeable payroll/accounting department. Smaller family-owned companies with not much of or no accounting/payroll department would do better with a different company that could hold their hand from setup all the way through processing individual payroll.

Paycor makes it easy to set up payroll and access several documents needed with just a few simple steps. If you need assistance, you can get help while online. I've used other payroll companies and I find Paycor to be the most simplified setup. I also appreciate how they are able to see what you've done in the system and show you how to correct errors.

Well suited in that they handle all of the employee taxes for us. They provide a wonderful software system which is self-explanatory and user-friendly. The associates never hesitate to help and never make you feel inept.

I chose Paycor for their (supposed) 360 integration with my 401(k) provider. The service was marketed & advertised to work seamlessly with my already-in-place retirement plan. Other perks that sold me on switching to Paycor included a dedicated customer support rep that would be familiar with my account, and an easy to use website. Implementation wasn't too painful. There were inaccuracies though. I manually corrected those. My first call to customer support proved that there was no dedicated rep. Maybe because the company seems to have a high rollover rate in customer service. 360 integration has been the biggest let down. Paycor admits to being unable to read the reports sent by our 401(k) provider- therefore they should not be claiming 360 integration. Their website is less interactive & customizable than ADP, and leaves room for error due to unclear commands. For instance, I'd like to put PTO time into a # of days used format... Paycor only allows a dollar amount or hours.

Customer support is always good. I think it would depend on how much the other organization wants to spend.

Paycor seems to be fantastic for our size. It's easy for one person to manage payroll without spending too much time, so a good choice for the even the most time-challenged. Information is often easily accessible and well organized. The drawbacks tend to be minor, but there are a few. In our experience they are heavily outweighed by the positives of the system. It is extremely intuitive.

As I noted earlier, the Paycor Ready Clock product has done a good job for us in tracking our shop time and attendance. Paycor's online payroll software is fairly straightforward and easy to use. It is also very nice that if for any reason I am away from the office I am able to handle the processing of payroll remotely.

The great thing about Paycor is that they offer an all in one solution to timekeeping, applicant tracking, payroll, HRIS and reporting. This is very convenient as opposed to having separate software installations for each aspect of the human resources function.

They are well suited for any company seeking a full service HR and payroll system or just seeking a payroll system.
I really can't think of where they would be less appropriate.

Any and all HR professionals that are either not using an HRIS system or time and attendance system would benefit extremely well from Paycor. I believe it's functionality allows me to better focus my day on helping our organization succeed, instead of looking for information. I would highly recommend Paycor and Time and Attendance to any and all HR Professionals!

The payroll platform works well with or without the HR function. The various modules generally provide more than one method to address specific needs.
