Overall Satisfaction with Paycor

Paycor was mainly used by our HR department to manage employee information, employee time, benefits, as well as leave requests. Paycor was also used organization-wide by employees to view previous and upcoming paystubs, pay rates, leave balance, and to submit leave requests. Paycor allowed for an easy approval system for leave requests that flowed simply from employee to supervisor.
  • Easy leave requests.
  • Readily view past paystubs.
  • Manage employee data.

  • Customer service.
  • Availability to answer questions.

  • Increased efficiency.
  • Freed up time for more strategic HR tasks.
  • Minimized but did not eliminate compliance risks.
I’m not in HR or don’t handle payroll.
The Paycor site is easy to navigate. The sections are clearly identified, and the employee information section is especially easy to view and update. I found viewing reports to be difficult, but this could be due to the delay in updating my account access. We found it hard to add access to certain accounts after the initial account setup.
Navigating the Paycor site is relatively simple and sections of information are clearly identified. Employees noted that leave requests were easy to find and leave balances were easy to view. Most days, it was extremely difficult to contact customer service and updates to user accounts took weeks/months to be reflected on the user side. Paying the Paycor invoices was difficult prior to ACH setup. Invoices were hard to view and required random approvals to pay.
