Overall Satisfaction with TriNet

We have been using TriNet since our start-up was formed over 8 years ago. We are a small company with about 10 employees. TriNet has helped us manage our payroll, human resources and benefits. I have been very impressed with their website and tools/reports they offer to help us manage our business.

Pros

  • Website is well organized and easy to navigate
  • Breadth of Benefit choices
  • Reports and analytics are helpful to manage our business

Cons

  • per employee fees could be more competitive
  • responsiveness to issue resolution could be improved. The Chat service is usually helpful but sometimes issues remain unresolved for long periods of time..
  • Employees are generally pleased with the breadth of benefit plans
  • Onboarding employees is fast and easy.
  • LOA process has allowed several employees to take time off (with pay) to tend to a new born or a sick parent.
I rate TriNet's overall usability as an 8. Working with TriNet is generally without issue but issues occasionally surface and some of them take more time to resolve than I am happy with.
I use the chat feature extensively. And saving a copy of the chat transcript helps me explain to employees what was said and done. But there are those few times when a case number is assigned and you don't hear back for weeks. If the timeliness of the responses was a few days or less than week, I would rate this higher.
