Overall Satisfaction with Paycor

We use it for payroll and benefits management.

Pros

  • Payroll flexibility - offering the ability to add additional payrolls or make temporary one-time changes to each employee.
  • Timekeeping flexibility - we're willing to adjust our timekeeping to match our current practices.
  • They understand our demographic - church, non-profit and our unique tax implications.

Cons

  • They can be buggy. When employees log in, they frequently encounter issues, such as being unable to log in, navigating to the required page, entering time, or requesting vacation. At times, I need to do these things for employees who are unable to get Paycor to work for them.
  • Inflexibility in performance reviews.
  • Inability to impersonate an employee to help them.
  • It has provided payroll stability and compliance.
  • It has standardized onboarding and benefits open enrollment.
Those who use it regularly find it easy to use. Those who don't need to access it often struggle to do so. Additionally, it can be very buggy, causing issues in seemingly random ways.
Paycor is smaller, and their customer service is better. They seem to understand non-profits better.
