Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

We were manual before we got Paylocity, so we do payroll on it. We replaced another company with Paylocity. Our payroll wasn't manual but our time clocks were. Like the old pre Flintstone stone chunk it in type thing and we went to facial recognition.

Pros

  • I really like the time clock situation because obviously when the old school, anybody could punch in and out for anyone, so it gets away from that because you only have one facial recognition, so nobody can check in and out for you. Also, the PTO associated with it is online, so we're able to request time off, approve time off, that type of thing. All with your telephone, which is today's technology and the payroll runs really smoothly.

Cons

  • Setting people up on the time clock, there's like a little delay because when we go in to set up, it wants to default to a badge number instead of the facial, but if it goes 24 hours, it resets overnight and then the next morning it's on facial. It would be nice if it didn't have to do that. It essentially means we delay one day. I mean the world doesn't end and it's still way better, but that'd be a nice thing to figure out that little bug.
  • I just think it made things easier so that's more efficient and that's a huge thing right there. We were very manual with the old punch in time clocks so anybody could punch in and out for somebody else. So that made it easy for someone to maybe try to do something they shouldn't do. And now that with facial recognition clocks, that can't happen.
It just made us more efficient. We were manual before.
It was easy. ADP is just too much.

Yes

Would you buy Paylocity again?

Yes

Our company is a small company, 47 employees. We have a warehouse on site. It works really well for us. I think if you had a really large company and there was maybe a line of people wanting to check in or whatever and you had a new employee because the time clock issue with the new employees a little bit clunky, that could be an annoying situation, but otherwise, not really. That's the only thing I can think of.
