Corrections actually work properly

Attachment of earnings orders are supported without a workaround, and statutory payments calculate correctly every April without fail. P11D is a separate product and a separate cost, but we live with it.

Pros

Attachment of earnings orders are supported without a workaround.

Cons

P11D is a separate product and a separate cost.

Corrections actually work properly

The reporting is detailed enough that our auditors stopped asking questions. Only real gripe is that it expects you to know payroll, it will not hold your hand.

Reliable through every April change

Attachment of earnings orders are supported without a workaround, and auto enrolment assessment and postponement are handled properly. The jump from the 25 band to the 50 band is close to double, but we live with it.

Pros

Reliable through every April change

Attachment of earnings orders are supported without a workaround. We run 240 people on the unlimited band and it does not blink.

Pros

Attachment of earnings orders are supported without a workaround.

Cons

Still desktop at heart and remote working is clunky.

The band pricing has sharp edges

Rolling back a pay run and correcting a prior period actually works, and auto enrolment assessment and postponement are handled properly. P11D is a separate product and a separate cost, but we live with it.

Cons
