Thank you Paycom!
- Initial setup

- Dedicated point of contact for any issues
- Pushing payroll reports out more timely
Paycom is the best HRIS System
- Paycom set-up the system to where you can easily process payroll, and employees can approve their own paychecks so there are never any issues. Expenses/Timesheets/Time off requests flow over nicely to Payroll
- Benefits administration set-up for our many medical plans and other benefits, it is seamless and super easy for employees to view their current benefits and costs associated with such. The Open Enrollment was a breeze and benefits team at Paycom is very good.
- Performance Reviews was such a great transition going from excel spreadsheets to actual system that works, employees and managers loved the process, rating and the whole process.
- N/A Paycom is super great.
Paycom
- Help Support
- Helpful Slicks for new features and upgrades
- Account specialists who know the most about your account and manage your help tickets for you
- There is currently an alert in payroll processing if an employee works MORE than their projected salaried hours--it would be helpful to have a flag for when employees work LESS than their projected salaried hours.
- Sometimes implementation for new/underutilized features can be prolonged due to scheduling constraints with the regular account specialist--having a dedicated "roll out" team for each feature (expense management, Paycom learning, etc.) would be helpful.
Amazing Product - You won't be disappointed!
- Customer Service Support
- Reporting
- Batch editing/filtering abilities to make changes quickly for large amount of employees at one-time
- Payroll Processing

- Visually, Paycom updated the layout which I feel could be better. It seems a bit messy to the eye.

Takes the worry out of HR!

- PAF usage
Saving time and money!
- The app is easy to use.
- The customer service hads been excellent so far.
- website is easy to use.
- The vacation accrual set up was a bit tricky.
Pricey but worth it
- Beti - payroll
- Applicant Tracking
- Processing Payroll
- lower annual fee for those companies that have been with them for more than 5 years.
- getting to keep our implementation team - they were fantastic
- not lower the employee participation when admin makes a small change
From Transition to Transformation
- Customer Support- Jaco Lau and Jeff Sullins have been highly responsive to all of our needs and customizations
- Customization capabilities - we have had to build an End-To-End performance management system that now fits and meets our needs
- Functionality - the tools and intuitive use of Paycom makes for a great user-experience. Our employees are already embracing it and have expressed gratitude for moving to this new platform.
- Sales to Implementation hand-off was not seamless.
Paycom does the work for you!
- Personnel Action Forms work beautifully
- Love the ask here section
- Manual check process is so smooth
- Benefits Management
- Garnishment Management
- I have no issues! I don't think I have once said "I wish paycom....."
- I wish our Rep was more responsive like the implementation team was
Overall happy employees and happy managers
- User friendly
- Informative
- Has a useful app
- Amazing reporting capability
- How to training videos are super helpful
- Update alert system for employees. When and employee misses a clock in so he/she requests a missed punch correction, the alert saying missed punch will continue to pop up at the employee until a manager approves said punch request. It confuses employees and makes them think they didn't request the punch so they do it again. It should not keep alerting said employee if he/she made a change to fix it. If anything, it should alert the manager until said requests are approved and/or denied.
- Provide the employees pay rate in the edit grid layout section of payroll
