Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

Paylocity is used for Human Resources onboarding, benefits administration as well as payroll. We utilize the performance review features, learning is tracked as well as assignment of courses, time & labor, benefits, as well as HR & Payroll. As a rapidly growing company, this software has helped with growth while easily maintaining personnel files. The Recruiting and Onboarding tool is a fantastic time saver.
  • Payroll processing procedure and necessary corrections are easy to follow and happen in a timely manner.
  • Recruiting and onboarding saves time while tracking the processes of each candidate.
  • Maintain Benefits records, allowing demographics updates along with enrollments and terminations.
  • One onboarding step pertaining to W-4, tax withholding forms requires a review of the form with the SUBMIT/FINISH option above the form that is being viewed, causing the NEXT STEP option to be selected without SUBMIT or FINISH, causing an incomplete onboarding process. If the SUBMIT/FINISH option was at the end, or a warning given before allowing NEXT STEP to be selected, it would be very helpful.
  • We would like to customize the menu items available to employees on the app
  • Communication of new products
  • Payroll processing
  • Custom reporting for our business
  • Sometimes long turnaround times
The automation tools that Paylocity has cut down on the time that we spend on payroll processing and so many other tasks. I do love the easy import feature to change things in a mass import for hundreds of employees. The onboarding is very easy to use and navigate for our new hires to use, and it’s customizable!
We started using Community recently, and it’s been a decent help and improvement to reach out to our teams. We try to engage as much as possible using the tools.
