Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

We currently use Paylocity for payroll and HR needs. We use the HRIS system for onboarding, annual reviews, etc. We also use the Compensation module to help identify pay grades. The use of these systems had greatly improved efficiencies with the administration of payroll and HR, especially with onboarding. We used to have a very manual process for onboarding new staff and now it is a breeze because it is all taken care of in Paylocity from employment verifications to benefit administration.

Pros

  • Process payroll
  • Timekeeping
  • 360 integrations with vendors
  • HR management

Cons

  • Reporting that is considered custom
  • Workflow from timekeeping and payroll
  • Saves time and money
  • Efficient on creating reports to make real time decisions
  • User friendly web-based design
  • Allows staff to manage their demographic and tax information
It has reduced the time needed to review timecards and submit payroll. It took our old manual system and streamlined it. Timecards don't take nearly the time they used to take to review.
We only just started using the community functions in Paylocity. We are transitioning away from Teams to the community in Paylocity to drive more staff to use Paylocity as the one stop shop for all company communications.
Paylocity is a tech company that became a payroll company. ADP is a payroll company trying to implement tech. Paylocity is much easier to use and a better product in my opinon.
