Overall Satisfaction with Gusto

Payroll for a small nonprofit organization that would make booking doable in-house at an affordable rate.

Pros

  • simple reporting and user interface
  • providing chat access to customer support
  • easy to follow reporting

Cons

  • sharing of customer service notes
  • more orientation materials like short videos included in onboarding
  • check in call periodically once onboarded, similar to sales calls after showing interest
  • save time on running payroll w/ auto pay
  • save time on reporting
  • save money with benefits more suited to our needs versus the pricey superservice that we had prior
On the interface and features clean, simple process, auto auto pay great. reporting makes our bookkeeping simple. did't really learn about all the bell and whistles yet though i haven't made much effort.
Gusto is more approachable with a less corporate, more personalized feel. When we started, it was helpful for Paychex to be a one-stop shop where they offered a ton of add on services we hadn't thought of but found useful. Now that we are better able to navigate our needs, Gusto makes a ton more sense and offers the affordability. Paychex was also a revolving door of dedicated contacts but didn't feel much more accessible than reaching out to Gusto and reaching knowledgable folks reasonably quickly.
