MARIE G

Marie: My name is Marie and I'm a sales tax manager for a company, a retail company that has around 50 employees and I give Paychex Flex five stars. They're awesome. So previously we were using ADP TotalSource, and their reporting features were pretty terrible. You actually couldn't go back in and recreate reports. So if I needed a report, I had to make sure that I got it within a specific time period, and I could not go back. With Paychex Flex, you can go out any time, anytime during the year, reprint any reports, W-2's, payroll detail, payroll summary. So that's why we changed. So we started using Paychex Flex because I had previously used it in other jobs for about 20 years, and they had always been super consistent, the best customer service that I'd ever experienced. Anything you needed, they would get it done immediately. They were very responsive. And so that was one of the main reasons. And again, with ADP, customer service was just not there. So that was probably the main reason that we switched over. Yeah. So moving over to Paychex Flex was very easy. We had a team of people in different departments that helped us move all the data over, and we have a payroll person, an HR person, training people, just someone in every department to help us out. So when we have questions, we know who to contact. And they have been very, very helpful. But it was a very easy transition, no issues at all. For anyone that would be thinking about moving to Paychex Flex, I would say do not hesitate, especially if you're with another payroll company that is not meeting your needs. Paychex Flex is very flexible. They have HR, they have payroll, they have timesheets, just so many different options, 401(k) options, and everything is very user-friendly. You just go right in and if you do happen to have any issues, you always have your point of contact. You have a main person and then an umbrella underneath them of people that can help you out. So I love it. I love it. And they have a lot of different resources as well. So I would say don't hesitate and move Paychex Flex.
