Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

Paylocity makes it super easy to manage our 1000+ employees throughout 40 stores. Their system is pretty user-friendly and easy to learn. They also have a ton of support articles as well as a couple of other support methods that make finding the answers to our questions much easier than any other program I've used.

Pros

  • User friendly interface
  • Lots of support articles
  • Simple payroll process

Cons

  • Security access/permissions
  • Email notifications
  • Time off accruals/approvals
  • Less payroll errors
  • More control over employee info
  • Better reporting options
Paylocity is a better option in pretty much every single way. I think APS is a fairly new product so they have a lot of issues to figure out. They didn't even have functionality for effective dates which is a pretty important thing to have in a HR/payroll system

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?

Yes

Would you buy Paylocity again?

Yes

I think Paylocity is perfect for any size company that wants an HR/payroll solution. In my opinion, not as good for a company that is just looking for an onboarding or recruiting solution as those are some of the weaker points of the system
