Return on Investment

Paylocity has reduced the time we spend recruiting and onboarding new hires by at least 25%!
Payroll takes us less than 30 minutes each pay cycle, and their system has cut our accuracy check time in half.

Greatly! Paylocity's tools for automating our HR processes have saved us at least 5-10 hours a week. Now, we're checking reports and dashboards for any oddities rather than doing all of the audits manually. The time we saved on talent acquisition is even greater! We've cut that time nearly in half with their recruiting and onboarding tools.

Paylocity Employee Engagement

While great tools, these are not something our company uses at this time. We were already established on another communications tool with employee engagement features built in.

Alternatives Considered

SurePayroll, TriNet and Bamboo

It is that perfect sweet spot; it is robust to what we need without being so massive that we find ourselves taking more time to configure new workflows than we spent doing the work.

Likelihood to Recommend

Paylocity is versatile, meeting the needs of a small company (sub 50 people) to a more robust company (200+) with multiple employee types and the need for hourly tracking. Their model for various portals allows you to build your HRIS system with only the portals needed, adding on later, which is great. The ease with which portals communicate data to one another gives us growing companies the efficiency we need to stay focused on the more nuanced areas of HR rather than being stuck on these more administrative tasks.

A Great Fit!
