Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

We use all aspects of Paylocity from Payroll/HR, Time & Labor, LMS, ATS and Expense. We became more efficient with onboarding using the ATS and onboarding system as well as eliminated paper. Our goal was to find a one stop shop solution.

Pros

  • HRIS
  • LMS
  • Workflows

Cons

  • Benefits
  • Reporting
  • Customer Service
  • Reduced onboarding time
  • Better candidate communication tracking
  • Eliminate paper workflow
The main area that Paylocity has reduced our time spent is on the onboarding and recruiting. Being able to send new hires all of their new hire paperwork through email reduces the time to track down paperwork and file. The recruiting messaging also helps to track recruiting communication between multiple recruiters.
We have utilized community for company announcements. Our employees aren't all on company provided computers, so it allows for further reach of communication. We currently don't use the other engagement tools because only 1/3 of our business has computer access.
We selected Paylocity because it was very intuitive to use and at a good price for all the modules we received. The implementation process seemed very straightforward and I really liked my sales rep.

Do you think Paylocity delivers good value for the price?

Yes

No

Did implementation of Paylocity go as expected?

No

Would you buy Paylocity again?

No

Paylocity has all the modules you could want, all in one place. But that doesn't mean they all work equally. HR and Payroll work well, but benefits and reporting has something to be desired.
