Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

We use Paylocity for all employee lifecycle functions. Onboarding, benefits, time off, termination. We have a larger company for Paylocity's typical customer base, which brings its own unique struggles and several infrastructure issues within Paylocity's system.

Pros

  • User Friendly
  • Variety of trainings
  • Mobile device functionality

Cons

  • Customer service
  • Time off calculations are confusing for employees
  • Compliance is not employee friendly
  • Very manual processes to get things changed
  • No Paylocity led compliance when it comes to sick time ordinances
  • Reduced errors
  • Facilitated training
  • Increased onboarding success
Their onboarding tools have been extremely helpful in making sure we can focus our time on other processes. Most tasks within Paylocity are extremely manual, and some are much easier to track and keep up with outside of Paylocity, which is what my company mostly ends up doing.
We do not use these functionalities currently.

Do you think Paylocity delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Paylocity's feature set?

Yes

Did Paylocity live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Paylocity go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Paylocity again?

Yes

I think Paylocity is an overall good technology, but certain capabilities are more limited or suited for smaller companies. Overall, I would just recommend it as a not bad budget friendly option. If a company has a larger budget or the ability to get a better company, I would recommend them to do that instead.
