4.0

Marsha: Hi, my name is Marsha. I'm an executive director, and I give OnPay four stars. For more reviews, please click the link below. We took a look at QuickBook Payroll, which was pretty awesome. I loved the customer service, it was five star. I loved the platform, it was user-friendly. The only sticking point was the price. So we also took a look at Patriot software, which was more affordable, and the customer service was still pretty good. The only drawback with that service was the fact that their customer service wasn't available after 6:00 PM. And I believe the last one after that, that we looked at, was Gusto. It was more affordable, but we didn't like the customer service because it was more chat and email. And that's a no-no, we need to talk to a live person. We chose OnPay because their trial was a great incentive. Because there are so many payroll platform services out there, and we wanted to make sure that its affordability really matched the services that we needed and we were looking for, which is the customer service. So the customer service started out really great, but it sort of fell down a little bit, as far as some of the representatives weren't familiar with their products and services. But outside of that, we were happy with them. Onboarding was really super easy at OnPay. There was a team from a welcome team member to actually setting up payroll, if we had any questions or anything. It made you feel like more than a teammate, it made you feel like you were working with family, at the beginning. Well, if you're looking for affordability, solid customer service, a great onboarding experience, then I'd say that OnPay would definitely be an option. Another good feature that we liked was their reports for payroll and for filing taxes. That was a really great feature, because you know we have to keep those records and they made that pretty easy.

Chris: Hello, my name's Chris. I'm an HR generalist. I work at a home company that has about 100 people, and ADP Comprehensive Services, I give a four out of five. We use ADP for hiring processes and we also use it for weekly payroll and monthly payroll. Things I like about ADP is how everything is right there where you need it. There's very few things that aren't, but everything else is right there where you need it. Things I don't like about ADP is how difficult it makes it to figure out time cards, because I had to do a math calculation in order figure there out, and there are a few other things that I wish they could do some improving on, as far as when it comes to the hiring process as well.
