Overall Satisfaction with TriNet

We utilize TriNet across the entire organization and the platform helps with managing the recruiting process, employee onboarding, benefits enrollment, and payroll.
  • TriNet provides small employers with cost-effective access to health and medical plans that would be difficult or expensive to obtain otherwise.
  • TriNet's recruiting platform creates a seamless workflow between candidates, recruiting, hiring managers and human resources, saving significant time in managing the hiring and onboarding process.
  • As the co-employer, TriNet handles many of the administrative tasks necessary to comply with state laws, specifically as it relates to the handling of various state and/or local payroll taxes.
  • TriNet Expense, used for reimbursement of employee expenses, is significantly behind top class providers, such as Concur or Expensify. TriNet would be better off partnering with an existing quality provider.
  • While responsive to questions, the account management or client management process seems nonexistent.
TriNet has been helpful during the open enrollment process and responsive to questions. We've used TriNet for nearly 18 months and have yet to be contacted directly by an account manager to understand our company and any pinch points.
I find the recruiting, HR, benefits, and payroll areas to be relatively easy to use. The one feature holding down the rating is TriNet Expense.
  • TriNet has helped reduce administrative time on HR, benefits, and payroll.
  • TriNet offers a multitude of cost effective health and medical plans.
TriNet is great for a small company with little time or desire to handle the administrative tasks related to payroll and benefits enrollment. Larger companies may find it cost-effective to self-manage the benefits, but I am not sure where the breakpoint is.
