Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

Our company uses Paylocity for all payroll functions, including tax reporting. We save time by using the general ledger report to import to our accounting system. Our HR department uses several areas such as onboarding, recruiting & benefit integration. Our ACA and compliance are easily tracked through these functions. We run many reports and use dashboards for business analytics.

Pros

  • Addresses concerns in a timely manner
  • Up to date notices when an error may occur
  • Has training videos for learning
  • Continues providing new features and updates

Cons

  • Company Administrators have full access, but still need authentication on some tasks; I feel like this is unnecessary and time consuming
  • Automating payroll and staying up to date with tax laws minimizes our risk of costly penalties and errors.
  • Reduces admin workload by 70%
  • Platform interfacing is better understood by employees. The app has allowed those not working in the office an opportunity to check their details at any given time.
Automation has replaced manual processes with workflows, saving a significant amount of time. Data flows have reduced payroll errors. Self-service tools allow employees to quickly make changes, rather than contacting HR to make those for them.
Our company doesn't currently use these functions, but know they are available if we choose to.
The program is user-friendly, easy to use and understand the functions. The help knowledge feature allows questions to be answered before reaching out to customer service. Easily accessible by desktop or mobile app.

Did implementation of Paylocity go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Paylocity again?

Yes

A mid to large company would benefit from using Paylocity. The ease of use, reporting and hiring functions help save time. Not having to use paper forms saves on waste and space to store them. Having taxes filed for the company is a big help with accurate and timely reporting.
