Very complete and low costs 401K option for fast growing SMBs
Overall Satisfaction with Guideline
Fantastic 401K option for SMB Guideline has been a great choice for our small but fast growing software company. Our employees are savvy and appreciate the range of low costs index/ETF funds as well as the super easy to use interface. Features like real-time calculation of contribution limits when assessing contribution changes and super simple allocation changes have been specifically mentioned by the team. As the administrator, I really appreciate the continuous safe harbor analysis, seamless integration with Gusto (payroll), low and predictable costs and support that answers emails and phone calls in a timely and complete manner.

We did not at first, but they upgraded for additional features. The support was excellent at both levels of subscription.
Guideline walked us through all the ramifications of being top heavy in our plan and how to resolve the situation with the lowest costs to us.
