Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

When we started with Paylocity, we adapted the HR& Payroll and Time & labor modules. We now also use, Learning, Recruiting, Onboarding, Performance, Community and Impressions. Paylocity has made our Payroll and Performance Review process easy to use, saves time and creates transparency with our team members.
  • Simplifies the Payroll process
  • ACA reporting
  • Performance Reviews
  • Time & Labor
  • When problems need to be escalated, it feels like they are going to a graveyard. Continued communication & updates would be helpful.
  • We have noticed a tremendous time saving from our previous Payroll/ATS system.
I spend a lot less time trying to remember where I am at with various applicants in the recruiting process. It saves me time and reduces my stress levels, because the recruiting/ATS/Onboarding systems are seamless.
We utilize the Impressions feature. It is helpful to have a way to share with the whole team when a team member has received a customer kudo.
There is no comparison. Dominion had become a swear word for our team and Paylocity is a breath of fresh air. They are continuously improving and adding features. I love that they they hear our needs and suggestions and act on them. Everyone from our Sales person to the people we call with questions are so helpful and friendly.
