Paycom - Best system yet!

5.0 2 weeks ago New

Comments: This software implementation has been better than expected, felt very supported throughout the process and the program is easy to use and navigate. I like how we can hand back a lot of control and accountability to the employees and managers.

Pros:

The support is unequalled, all through implementation and first several payrolls, they were usually very quick to respond to emails and answer questions.

Cons:

Canadian taxes and statutory deductions are a work in progress and we have had a couple hiccups.

Paycom Review

4.0 2 months ago New

Comments: The overall experience has been a rollercoaster of rolling out new products and changing our department processes to stay on top of new trends and features. However, now everything is working smoother, and I am very happy with Paycom.

Pros:

I enjoy my Paycom representative [sensitive content hidden] she had been beneficial in education on the system and showing us how Paycom can work for our organization. I enjoy the new features that Paycom has been releasing that allow streamlining processes and giving the HRIS more of a competitive edge compared to other systems.

Cons:

We did not have proper communication prior to [sensitive content hidden] on how the system works and were given simple "fixes" that in fact did not fix our problems or issues but created further stress in managing the system.

Paycom is better than the rest

5.0 4 days ago New

Comments: Paycom is nicer and better than the other payroll apps I've used, and I prefer it over ADP. It is a clean UI and the way to adjust peoples hours is easy. Approval process takes seconds and once everybody is migrated into the system other features network nicely and build upon each other.

Pros:

Paycom makes it very simple to track users time, clock ins, benefits, payroll, and other misc workplace duties. The app is speedy and can use Touch ID / Face ID. Sign up is quick using private user data like last 4 of social.

Cons:

The app on iPhone can be slow, passwords need to be reset every 6 weeks, and you get timed out if away on the app for too long even though it is open.

Paycom Improves the Employee Experience

5.0 last week New

Comments: Making employee experience better is my #1 job. Paycom helps so much when it comes to employee satisfaction, especially because HR and Payroll tasks is the worst part of the job for any employee. My guys love that it is easy to navigate and always in their back pocket.

Pros:

I like that it allows employees to have everything HR/Payroll right in their back pocket. It saves me, as an HR Coordinator, time that used to be spent assisting employees with small tasks that take a lot of time.

Cons:

The client side access could be more user friendly. It seems like there is too many tabs and that it could all be more condensed and organized. There are also certain things on the employee side, like requesting a punch, that seems to be more complicated than it needs to be.

Pros:

Paycom puts all of our HR needs in one place. It's a great tool to complete all our projects and functions in the HR department.

Pros:

My dedicated specialist and the excellent customer service. The database is very user friendly and easy to use.

Cons:

The recently added terminated employee process in Beti needs a major overhaul. Very confusing and never does quite what I expect. I don't like using it but when I choose not to use it Paycom doesn't end some earnings. Some of the forms need updated to be consistent with other recent updates. Some improvements haven't been tested by an end user like me. The words don't wrap or are not visible.

Handy Dandy Payroll App

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: I find Paycom to be a generally excellent and efficient app that makes payroll and its associated functions easily accessed, updated, and implemented, with a minimum of fuss. It's highly functional and works well, with a minimum of glitches or other issues. I don't have complaints so much as 'I'd like to see's; given how rare it is for me to not have a complaint about something, that's high praise. I've used other payroll apps in the past, and thoroughly recommend Paycom for any size business.

Pros:

I really like the ease of use I get in the app, as that is how I most often access Paycom. The layout is clear, options are logical, and it's easily understood at each level what I'm looking at and what I'm doing. The app is high-powered with functionality, unlike many apps that are just light versions of their websites. I actually prefer the app. The features are robust, allowing for much more than just requesting time off. Access to tax documents, time cards, adjusting payroll, and yes, time off requests, are all easy to navigate to and access. Having online learning resources and additional company info built in and accessible from the app is also a highlight.

Cons:

One of my earlier complaints about Paycom- the awkwardness of entering PTO requests- was actually fixed in one of their recent updates. Although navigating to the various functions is easy enough, a 'Favorites' option would be most appreciated. Not every user needs to use every function equally, after all. While access to the options is easy enough, the layout and visuals of the app itself are somewhat basic, and could do with a fresh coat of paint, as it were. Some minor quibbles, like certain characters not allowable in PTO requests, are just that, minor.
