Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

Primarily we use it for Payroll, Time & Attendance and Reporting. There are no problems that it really addresses, just solutions for information we are needing to gather.

Pros

  • Ease of use unlike other payroll companies we have looked into
  • Mobile App integrates directly with the online system making it seamless

Cons

  • When administering "product enhancements," making sure all issues that could arrise already have a solution
  • Reduced cost based on other payroll companies by offering easy platform to use
I have had more issues lately with Paylocity. It seems like a lot of things are changing within the system - HR & Payroll, Time & Attendance, Reporting, etc. I don't know if this is to try and keep up with other payroll companies, but we have looked at Paycor and Paycom in the past and did not like how rigid they were to use. Paylocity is simple and to the point, and with all of the product enhancements without notification to us as a company, it is becoming more frustrating and fragile to use in some areas.
Paylocity has been simple and very easy to use the past 5 years I have been with our company.
  • ADP Global Payroll
  • Paycor
  • Paycom
Way more simple and affordable.

Do you think Paylocity delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Paylocity's feature set?

Yes

Did Paylocity live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Paylocity go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Paylocity again?

Yes

It's simple to use, but with product enhancements without sending a heads up to us via email or phone is very frustrating. It seems like we find out things that have changed after-the-fact.
