Overall Satisfaction with Paychex Flex

Paychex Flex is used as our payroll software. It is the best payroll software that we have used [up] to this point. The interface is easy to use and the fact that employees are able to update their own information is a plus for those who do not live near or come into the office.
  • Easy Interface
  • Self Service
  • Quick Processing
  • While processing payroll, it's impossible to pull up a terminated employee using the search function.
  • Saving each entry in payroll is time consuming.
  • Saves time processing payroll.
Paychex Flex is the best and easiest software I've used, or for which I've seen a demo. Handling of Plus Paychex customer support is always available by either a dedicated rep or other available customer reps. That is something that I've never gotten with other payroll companies large or small.
Customer support is super with Paychex. I've had large and small issues and they have always been handled in a timely manner. Having a dedicated support rep makes all the difference. That one person is able to learn about your company and handle issues easily instead of being passed around from one rep to another who isn't familiar with your company.

Yes

Would you buy Paychex Flex again?

Yes

Paychex is always working to update their software to make it more productive to its users. In the years that our company has been using Paychex, they've updated the actual payroll program to make it easier to input each employee's information while processing payroll and entering new employees. The fact that employees are able to update their own information is also a large plus. It makes the process easier for them and for me.
Paychex Flex is an easy to use system. I would think that it is appropriate for all small to medium size employers. I would think individual entry for a large company would take much too long to enter.
