Overall Satisfaction with Intuit Payroll

Intuit Payroll is a standard offering and natural candidate for businesses engaged with any other Intuit offerings, such as QuickBooks Online or Desktop. We have a relatively small team operating in a needlessly complex state, so payment to employees and management of payroll-related benefits and documentation for personnel and tax purposes can get hairy. Integration with our preexisting accounting products was certainly a bonus.
  • Scheduled or manual payments to employees works well
  • Direct deposits or cheque options is helpful
  • Tax document management was surprisingly low in pain
  • Customer support for payroll went above and beyond
  • Intuit products across the board are unfairly priced for small businesses.
  • 2020 special conditions were confusing and slow to roll out due to pandemic legislation.
  • Payroll freed up an incredible amount of time for my employees and business managers
It's a payroll software with decent customer support readily available and direct integration with my accounting tools. This made it a prime fit for me, and made payment and tax reporting relatively simple, and errors readily correctable. It does not have time tracking, and I still believe that this software is overpriced, but it's the best fit for me right now.

You'll probably end up on Intuit Payroll if you have a Quickbooks product. You're in their sales funnel already, and with all your bookkeeping already existing within an Intuit product, you'll find this takes a lot off your plate. If you're not a Quickbooks user, you may want to shop for a dedicated software that has a cleaner interface and more competitive price.
