Overall Satisfaction with Paycor

Our company uses Paycor as the HR and Payroll software for all employee usage. We use it for annual benefit enrolment, management, payroll (inc taxes, clocking in & out). We also use it for employees to request time off and submit missed time punches. Paycor is being used by our entire company, not just one or two divisions. Our company replaced a much more "clunky" solution that was browser-only based.
  • Allow employees to clock in w/o having access to a computer (app on personal/work phone).
  • Allow employees full access to pay and time sheet info.
  • Allow employees an easy way to request time off.
  • A chat feature to send messages to other employees w/o having to give personal contact info out.
  • For many employees, clocking in/out doesn't always register, regardless of connection strength.
  • The web interface doesn't allow individual customization (i.e. it defaults to displaying floating time off vs. PTO.
  • The app frequently doesn't register thumb print based password on iPhone.

  • Time punch management seems to be less stressful on management.
I’m not in HR or don’t handle payroll.
Paycor is pretty good for those who are computer/tech-savvy but could use some help with the UI for those who are not very tech-savvy. Maybe if it had a couple of interface options/themes: one for people comfortable with apps/computers and one for those that just need basic functions that are not very good with computers.
From what I remember, Paycom seems to be better for employees on some levels, but not as good on others. The UI for Paycom is better and easier to navigate.
It appears to be really good for employees to use, with some exceptions: the app can be buggy, especially when trying to clock in/out (punches are not always registered) and I frequently have to type in my password vice using the biometric feature of my iPhone. One area it could really improve on is simplicity for those that are not "tech-savvy"; we have several people who are not great with computers and have challenges with accomplishing some tasks in the app or the website.
