Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

At our organization we use Paylocity as our HRIS. We currently use it for payroll processing, timekeeping, onboarding, and recruiting. Before Paylocity, we managed everything including payroll in-house. Paylocity really changed our efficiency and improved a lot of time spent on manual work across the organization.
  • Employee friendly
  • Data analytics
  • Payroll
  • Handling multiple accrual policies
  • More inclusive in employee identification categories
  • Dedicated account manager
  • Reduced time expenditures
  • Reduced manual entries
  • Access to data
It substantially reduced the time we spent on manual entries and often double recordings into multiple systems. It has also automated several of our processes which has increased overall efficiency in terms of payroll and onboarding experiences.
As of now, we have not leveraged these tools because our employees have access to other tools such as Slack and Survey Monkey. I do see a benefit to utilizing them in the future as it's all in one platform versus having multiple systems.
We appreciate the user friendliness of Paylocity for both administrator users and employees.

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?

Yes

Did implementation of Paylocity go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Paylocity again?

Yes

Paylocity is overall great, but in an ideal world we should have a dedicated manager that does not change often and that is relatively available to us. I appreciate having a well-established relationship and would appreciate an account manager that is versed in our account without having to call a 1-800 number and getting a different rep every time. I will say that for the most part, the reps are helpful.
