Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

Payroll processing and timekeeping recording. Looking to add benefit time tracking and HR module as well. Great for transit benefit tracking and administration along with 401k and Roth contributions. Reporting features are very good but could be simplified a bit for the end user. Mobile app is wonderful that allows punching in and out with a great geofencing restriction.

Pros

  • Payroll processing
  • Timekeeping
  • Transit Benefit
  • Reporting
  • 401k Administration

Cons

  • Reporting
  • Benefit tracking
  • Saves a lot of time by outsourcing payroll processing
  • Simple platform
  • Precise reporting when implemented
Reporting area could use some simplification.
Simple processing platform, CompuPay redesigned their platform and it did not work for our organization, ADP does not cater to small to medium sized organizations.
