Overall Satisfaction with Paylocity

As the HR Manager, I use Paylocity for onboarding, employee records and payroll. It helps to keep everything organized electronically in one place.

Pros

  • Time Keeping
  • scheduling time off
  • reminders for holidays / other legal must knows

Cons

  • Initial new company/ use training. It was very overwhelming with lots of different people and groups involved. It was not explained as such in the beginning and it was hard to keep up.
  • PEAK Articles - laying all information out on one page for a one subject matter, rather than having to click into mulipule screens
  • Faster response times from Service
  • The onboarding link fails every time we have a new hire.
  • Reports are difficult to use and create.
  • more consistent process
  • simplifying payroll
  • ease of clocking in/out
Having automated time and labor reports that are downloaded to Payroll saves hours per week.
surveys have been very helpful to collect information and feedback. This is something that is new for our company.

No

Did implementation of Paylocity go as expected?

No

Would you buy Paylocity again?

Yes

Paylocity has a great system once you learn to use it and all of the features. Had initial training in the beginning been more direct and hands on, I don't think I would have felt so overwhelmed and frustrated. Bringing Paylocity into our company was a big investment and as soon as we signed the deal, our sales rep what no longer available to help. We we're given multiple people in multiple departments to work with a quick time frame to get set up. One person training and setting up our company would have helped us gain the knowledge of the product much better.
