Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

We use Paylocity for payroll, timekeeping, LMS, performance reviews, FSA, rewards and recognition. Will be adding compensation piece next year. Company if 80 employees and I am an HR of one, so this makes it manag

Pros

  • Payroll is easy and accurate
  • LMS is comprehensive and includes compliance
  • recognitions and rewards is fun and easy to use

Cons

  • often customer service people don't know how to help
  • onboarding needs to have allocations option to make it easier to set up
  • tracking employee bonuses or commissions inside paylocity would be nice
  • reduced manual process for onboarding and made it easy for new employees to onboard and get their training assigned automatically based on their role
  • removed errors in updating benefit elections costs
So ar they are allowing me to work on other module set up- with the vision that once everything is set up I can focus more on HR strategy and culture! Right now I am in the thick of setting a lot up, so I am not quite there yet.. but I know I will be!
we have them but don't use them much yet- but we hope to.
I love Paylocity.. just need to figure out those workflows.

Yes

Would you buy Paylocity again?

Yes

As an HR of one, it is lovely to have everything in one place. We integrated with employee navigator for benefits and that was seamless. I believe for a smallish company it is great to be able to manage HR functions in multiple ways - we keep adding more modules and it just makes things easier! Workflows are not very intuitive though and the trainings for them in the knowledge base are confusing. I wish those were easier to set up.
