Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

Paylocity is a very user-friendly program. Like most HR systems, customer service is poor. In my experience I tried to implement the benefits enrollment system and that was a disaster. They also did not set up our tax IDs correctly and almost 2 years later, we are still trying to get it corrected. Their solution was to refund what we paid for the service and let us deal with getting everything straight with the state.
  • Building reports
  • On-boarding
  • recruiting
  • phone number for your rep vs a general 800 number
  • better communications
  • easier payroll processing
  • employee self service
It has made payroll, recruiting and on-boarding much easier. Love the goal setting tool.
We really do not use these
