Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

We use it strictly for Payroll.

Pros

  • Employee Time
  • Employee Tracking
  • Employee Engagement

Cons

  • Making changes to the original setup
  • Have a direct Account Rep
  • Stop requesting to set up a meeting with the salesman, when a meeting with Account Rep has requested.
  • Reduced errors with employee hours worked or PTO
  • Reduced costs
  • Reduced processing time for payroll
Time spent completing a payroll run has been reduced significantly from the alternative of other payroll services companies. Employees that use the self- portal like the ease of use and monitoring of their personal portal.
We have only recently started to use Peer Recognitions and Surveys. It is our hope in the next year to ramp these features up for a better Employee Engagement.
We primarily use the Payroll service, and have not fully developed the many other areas. It is hoped that in the next year, we are able to expand our engagement and the many other features of Paylocity.
Paylocity was the service that was being used when I joined the practice. I have used other payroll products in other practices, i.e., Sage Payroll, Time Pilot, T-Sheets.
