Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

We use this product for everything HR now. Everything was segregated and siloed before and now everything is in one system for all of our HR department and our managers and all of our employees

Pros

  • We have found that this is an amazing way to communicate to all 600 of our employees at once. It is also a great way to verify schedules very quickly. It's wonderful to be able to pull up information when I'm away from the office. Before, I could not access anything from our HR system unless I was in my office. So now I can do it wherever I am.
  • The recruiting and onboarding platform has been a lifesaver, also very easy to use and very user-friendly.

Cons

  • The scheduling system needs to also incorporate budgeted hours so that my retail managers know what to stay in line with for their labor budget.
  • I would say the biggest impact we've seen in only this first year that we've been is the time management and the ability for me and my very small team to be able to focus on the people, which is what's really important and what really matters because Paylocity is taking care of the rest.
The automation part of it really has assisted us in making sure that the managers know what they need to get done and what's best for their retail site so that we're not handling a bunch of simple phone calls that we had to do in the past.
Community has been extremely helpful because we've been able to reach all of our employees. Surveys, we just implemented. So I can't really give feedback on that and we're not using the recognition part.
Really the biggest reason that we went with Paylocity was because we found of all the platforms, it is absolutely the most user-friendly platform and we have a lot of very minimal education employees and it was very important to us that the technology be simple to use and it absolutely is.
