Overall Satisfaction with Paychex Flex

Limited use: Checking dates of employment of staff. I'd be lost without my Paychex representative.

And Paychex offered help and got us our Employee Retention credits.
  • Helps me with % or other increases to staff salaries.
  • Different types of documents (e.g., quarterly) regarding salaries.
  • Website is a bit difficult for a non-skilled user to understand.
  • Access to someone who KNOWS, cause I don't/
Positively - I use quarterly and annual payroll reports for budgeting purposes. They're great for this purpose.
We used a payroll service years ago, but it was sort of a disaster. Paychex Flex took its place and has been great.

Do you think Paychex Flex delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Paychex Flex's feature set?

Yes

Did Paychex Flex live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Paychex Flex go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Paychex Flex again?

Yes

Paychex Flex has always given me what I need, though that is very modest. We're not big, so I can only speak for the little guy.
I'm a non-HR user. We don't have an HR specialist, and don't need one (we have 5 employees). Paychex Flex does what we need in terms of payroll; payroll taxes; reports to the government; posters, etc., and I don't have to rely on someone local.

It's what we can use now. I don't have any ideas of how Paychex Flex would not be appropriate.
