Overall Satisfaction with Paychex Flex

We use Paychex for payroll, human resources, and training.

Pros

  • Excellent for processing payroll
  • Excellent resource for human resource dilemnas

Cons

  • Better view of the time off calendar for time and attendance
  • Better management of updates
  • Support for supervisors to be able to receive PTO alerts about employees requesting PTO
  • The time off calendar parameters - it needs to go back at least 30 days prior and 12 months out at a default. People have been missed with their PTO requests because they didn't show up.
  • Positive - time saving
  • Positive - clocking in and out for employees
  • Negative - would like better oversight with compliance
Positively - Year-end payroll reports, time off reports, user defined reports.

Do you think Paychex delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Paychex's feature set?

Yes

Did Paychex live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Paychex go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Paychex again?

Yes

Overall, the product suits our needs well. Our costs have increased in the payroll fees, so I hope they don't go up too much in the future.
It's a one-stop shop for businesses needing payroll and HR services. We have used payroll, HR, health compliance, forms, training, among other things. It's full of great resources for a small business to use. I have used the support of your HR professionals on a handful of occasions to provide guidance on serious HR issues and concerns that have come up - including employee disciplinary action.
