Overall Satisfaction with Paycom

I am a Recruiter that uses the Talent Acquisition section of Paycom for our Applicant Tracking System. It allows me to keep a record of all of the company's open positions and funnel the applicants and candidates into one place to review and take through the hiring process.

Pros

  • Providing a singular platform for employee services
  • Paycom is generally user friendly and easy to navigate

Cons

  • The Talent Acquisition section can be hard to personalize, such as requisition approval being clunky and we can't have approvals sent to more than one person at a time
  • It can be hard to train a general user who only needs limited functionality versus someone who uses Paycom daily
  • The sections don't always communicate with each other. For example, a requisition that has an accepted offer (outside of Paycom) doesn't connect to the position management
  • I haven't used it long enough to provide data on this
I do like the single software solution versus having to manage tasks in different systems
I haven't had to use any of the automated features yet
I have not yet used this function
For the applicant tracking system, each system has its own pros and cons.

Do you think Paycom delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Paycom's feature set?

No

Did Paycom live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Paycom go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Paycom again?

Yes

I have heard that it works really well for Payroll, but that is not my area of expertise.
It may not be appropriate for a company using multiple external recruiting agencies to track candidates.
