Overall Satisfaction with TriNet
TriNet is used to manage payroll and benefits at our company. It is used across the whole company, and it helps us solve the problem of wanting to offer competitive benefits and health insurance rates to our relatively small number of employees.
- Health insurance rates are very competitive with our other options.
- Various support professionals at TriNet have always been extremely helpful/professional.
- Partnership with Transamerica allowing us to offer 401(k)s is pretty cool.
- The actual dashboard interface, even with the new redesign, is not always the world's most intuitive.
- Email alerts/warnings sometimes don't do a good job of making it clear what kinds of companies they do and do not apply to (aka "this alert only applies to companies with 25+ full-time employees" would be helpful).
- My main TriNet support person works east coast hours, which is strange, since we're a west coast company.
- We've been able to offer far more robust, diverse, and customizable benefits than before to our employees.
- It was a little bit of a struggle the first time around to get all of our data over to our bookkeeper for taxes because they used to manage our payroll and port that stuff over automatically.
TriNet is way more all encompassing than anything else we've used, which, once we got into the swing of it, was better than having disparate payroll and insurance providers covering (hopefully) everything. TriNet does give a general sense of security that our bases are covered, which is much appreciated.
