Overall Satisfaction with Paycor

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Paycor for payroll, timetracking, as well as onboarding and recruiting of candidates. These modules allow us to streamline critical processes at the organization and build a process that will survive transitions in the team. By digitizing the process and layering a simple to use UX, both new and experienced employees can successfully complete the work with moderate levels of training.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Great user UX
Simple to use from a user perspective once a system is setup
Robust approvals and control systems

Cons

The backend implementation is extremely complex and requires too much trial and error
The implementation team is stretched thin and when onboarding new customers, they fall behind
Their hours of operations need to be longer to cover an earlier start and later start. Also, in my experience, their support representatives are not well trained nor do they understand the product well.

Return on Investment

reduced candidate day outstanding and we can recruit faster
Reduced time spent on payroll activities
HR having more free time per day

Usability

Overall, Paycor is a decent product with solid capabilities. It could improve in many areas, but as the industry is still newer, there must be patience.

Paycor's major downside is the lack of integration between their different systems. We have to log in and out of the product to go into different modules which is frustrating as they all have different systems.

Alternatives Considered

Paychex, ADP Global Payroll, Paylocity and Paycom

The sales team was much better in terms of handling our needs, the products were overall better, and they have an extremely competitive price. We thought that Paycor was the best fit even though they were not the cheapest due to our needs and how they addressed them. It was a tossup between Paylocity and Paycor.

Likelihood to Recommend

Paycor is well suited for an organization with a strong implementation team or who has the budget to hire a consultant to implement Paycor. Once the system is implemented, Paycor is great.

If you are a smaller organization, we suggest starting with just 1-2 modules and working your way up from there as setting up everything takes time and resources.
