We are currently looking for another vendor to help solve what we need done. Our overall experience has been quit a roller coaster.

Pros

What we liked about tradeseal was that it was to integrate with ServiceTitan. However, we have been live for a year now and have not been able to get one full cycle payroll back into ServiceTitan

Cons

Customer Support. We have yet to be able to run certified payroll... the setup was ridiculous. The "proofing" of the payroll batch is silly, clicking into each employee rather than there being a proof report. We have over 100 employees. Oh and you have to pay for ALL EMPLOYEES that you have had for the last year - not just active ones... Unless you delete all of the employee historical data manually and then delete the employee.

Reasons for choosing HCM TradeSeal

None, this was the option that Paylocity recommended to us at the time. We though about jumping ship months ago, then we found out they integrate with ServiceTitan - so we rode it out. But still, we have yet to run a full cycle payroll to get anything back into ServiceTitan. We are currently looking for other options.

Review source

Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication.

Thank you Stacy for leaving your thoughts. We're sorry you're unhappy with the services provided. Communication was sent several times regarding data needed. We do integrate with Service Titan. Please keep in mind we require a payroll GL report from your payroll system. This data was never given to our team. Please reach out to our support team & they can help you.

Pros

The system is very user friendly and also very accurate. The implementation team is wonderful to work with and get things taken care of in a very timely manner. I could not have asked for a better experience.

Cons

I wish some of the imports in and out of the system could be automated with our payroll provider. I think the system has this capability and something I look forward to developing with Trade seal.

Reasons for choosing HCM TradeSeal

We chose HCM Tradeseal for the ease of use and the functionality it had to keep our union rules in compliance as well as certified payroll compliance.

Review source

Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication.
