We use TriNet company-wide for payroll, time-keeping, benefits, 401k, learning (sexual harassment), and applicant tracking. Having an integrated system is important to us. We were looking for a "one-stop shop."
- Ensuring compliance in multiple states.
- Benefit offerings are extensive.
- Seamless integration with 401k plan.
Cons
- Auto feed from TriNet time to payroll grid (no download/upload).
- When new hires miss the current pay period (i.e. they start just before the pay date), the stub period (days not paid on previous payroll due to start date) is not consistently added to the next payroll.
- Unlimited PTO is tracked going "negative" since there is no accrual. Although we offer unlimited, we still want to track use.

We use TriNet for our payroll, benefits, and 401k program. TriNet takes care of administering our benefits, which is a huge help to our company. They also manage our 401k program for our employees. Entering payroll in TriNet is fairly simple. I appreciate the fact that I can call them to get answers to my questions.
- They do a great job at administering our company benefits.
- They handle our 401k program and make it possible for us to offer this to our employees.
Cons
- I still would like to see a dedicated representative assigned to our company.
- The payroll approval process could use some improvement.
- It would be nice to have a quicker, more personal response to emails sent to Connect 360.
- I still struggle with Workforce Analytics and setting up a customized report.
- I would like to see the headcount report go back to what it was before Workforce Analytics.
