Overall Satisfaction with TriNet

TriNet is our HR provider and handles benefits enrollment and payroll.
  • Software
  • Information Sharing
  • High and Many Unexpected Costs
  • Lack of Consistency / High Turnover
  • Yearly Increases to benefits 18% or higher
The technology platform is a great one-stop-shop, but the service is inconsistent [with] the rotating individuals who answer questions/provide support. Service is also not always detailed/supportive enough, especially if extra help or guidance is needed (i.e. answers are standard).
The platform is a great tool.
  • We have been able to meet the basics of our HR / payroll needs
  • Experts are readily available
Information dissemination about changing laws and guidelines has been strong.

No

Did implementation of TriNet go as expected?

No

Would you buy TriNet again?

No

TriNet is very useful for companies [that] do not have their HR/payroll departments - mainly due to their software/platform. However, it has very high minimums for service fees, that penalize small organizations and very high increases to medical plans (at least 18% per year). Service is also inconsistent as support is provided by rotating staff and it is not always personalized to the issue the company is experiencing.
