Paylocity is the best of many payroll companies I've worked with. Their sales team is excellent, customer service great and the web-based systems are very user-friendly. When I've had major issues with processing payroll or any errors on my behalf, the customer reps have always been very generous to help me work through my issues and even will do some of the legwork to make the situation more manageable.

Payroll in an hour!

I believe it is easy to use for both onboarding, offboarding and reporting. I have been able to figure things out pretty quickly and haven't run into too many issues. I really like the interface, and the help files. In the past I have issues with other HRIS systems and I haven't run into too many problems.
