Posts to the ledger for us

The automation means we approve a pay run rather than build one, and the interface is the first payroll tool our team enjoys using. Payroll only, so HR lives elsewhere, but we live with it.

Pros

The automation means we approve a pay run rather than build one.

Cons

Payroll only, so HR lives elsewhere.

Payroll that feels modern

It feels like modern software, not a system from 2005, and the integration into our accounting posts the journal for us. Pricing is quoted rather than published, but we live with it.

Pros

Pricing is quoted rather than published.

Automation actually saves us time

Mixed. The integration into our accounting posts the journal for us, but it is more than the smallest employer needs.

Pros

Clean and well integrated

Onboarding a new finance hire onto it took an afternoon, and the automation means we approve a pay run rather than build one. No complaints so far.

Pros

Onboarding a new finance hire onto it took an afternoon.

Cons

It is newer, so we tested our awkward cases carefully first.
