Overall Satisfaction with TriNet

TriNet assigns a specialist to help each company navigate the systems and answers many questions. Its team is very professional and responsive. Any solution to an HR problem is only one email away. This is definitely effective in this fast paced environment.
Given it's an online platform, a user can have access anytime, anywhere in the world. The system is user-friendly and easy to navigate. These are very good qualities for many users.
We use TriNet manage our HR needs for our US branch offices. Our HQ is located overseas and our US branch offices operate independently. Given the small size of our US operation, we cannot afford to have an HR department and TriNet helps solve all the issues we face in the HR area. TriNet service is very helpful in the following areas: 1. comprehensive health care choices; 2. full range of employee benefits; 3. compliance & updates in Labor Laws; 4. payroll taxes issues; plus all the minor HR problems, such as hiring, termination, payroll reports, etc. All of these areas would have been very difficult to manage without a fully staffed HR department.
  • TriNet is excellent in communication. Each company gets an assigned specialist to help with questions. It hosts occasional webinars that educate on a wide range of HR issues. This makes management a lot easier.
  • TriNet is great in providing a wide range of employee benefits, such as healthcare, retirement funds, all sort of insurances, etc. This keeps our company relatively competitive in the labor market.
  • TriNet system is generally very user-friendly. It requires very little training for a new employee to master it. This is particularly helpful for a small company which does not have the manpower to provide a lot of training.
  • I did encounter some difficulty in certain payroll reports. One example is the compensation reports. Reimbursement claims within the payroll should be separated from basic salary in compensation calculation. Without the separation, compensation reports are not very useful.
  • It would be helpful to have an option to download payroll tax documents filed by TriNet on behalf of the company, such as Form 941, etc.
  • The wide range of offers and services helps a company remain competitive in this labor market.
  • The easy to use system helps reduce time spent on HR issue and retain employee satisfaction.
TriNet is great for small to medium size companies that cannot afford a fully staffed HR department. Given nowaday's complicated HR needs, TriNet service is crucial for many companies. Areas like keeping up with the changes in labor laws and employee benefits are hugely beneficial for management. It may be less important for huge companies that can afford to have internal control in HR matters.
