Time Savings with Paycor

Our HR and/or payroll team has saved 1-25 hours per month. - Paycor saves time on basic and mundane tasks. I believe it saves this organization time because previously tasks like onboarding, payroll, equipment and certification tracking, and applicant tracking were done manually. Having them done automatically is convenient and saves time. Automating these processes does not save a ton of time but helps out.

Usability

I think Paycor is very user-friendly and easy to use. Their help center is very thorough and provides step-by-step training on how to utilize different components of the software but it is often not needed because Paycor is intuitive and straightforward. I think even for an individual who did not find it to be straightforward, using the help center would be very useful.

Alternatives Considered

I have not used any products like Paycor.

Likelihood to Recommend

Paycor is a very effective software for a small businesses. It makes a lot of basic HR processes much simpler and easier. However, I am unsure how well it would fit a larger organization. I think it suits a small business very well and makes things easier, but may not be as effective in a larger situation. the applicant tracking system is less effective for hiring remote jobs. Because the jobs are posted on online job boards like Indeed, there is an overload of applications, many coming from unqualified candidates, making it difficult to weed out good candidates and wasting time reading through candidates without relevant experience.

Paycor - worth what you paidfor.
