### ""Patriot Software....Dot Com!""

May 8, 2020

5.0

I have loved used Patriot Software. I kicked myself for not switching over from a national competitor earlier. I am embarrassed to write that what made me delay in trying Patriot Software was the hokey song in their commercials. Now I hum and sing along each time I hear the ditty on Sirius Radio!!

Pros

All, this software is straight forward and clear to use. Tech support is outstanding and can get you through any struggles with setup or use.

Cons

I have not found any deficiencies with this complete payroll solution.

Reason for choosing Patriot Software

Like my company, Patriot software is a veteran-owned company.

### "Best Payroll provider we've found"

June 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

I'm super glad we found Patriot. Great value and customer service has always been great. One stop shop.

Cons

They did have a price increase after we already signed up. That is always annoying, but it's still an amazing value, so we're sticking with them.

### "Payroll was never so easy"

October 9, 2022

5.0

I love that I don't have to keep track of paying quarterlies any more!

Pros

The software is simple to set up and use. If I do need help, some nice person is always there with the answers I need.

Cons

It was difficult to figure some things out at first, but once I knew what to do it all works fine.

April 24, 2020

I haven’t had any problems with this software.

Pros

It is very easy to understand. I don’t have to worry about my tax documents being late. It is affordable.

Cons

Maybe if there was a time clock feature.

### "Simple Platform"

March 24, 2017

5.0

I have only been using the service for one day but it seems incredible easy and simple to use. The costumer service walked me through very quickly everything I needed to know.

Pros

I like how simple it is to use this product. I like how easy it is to get in touch with costumer service and how much help they were to me.

Cons

The only con I could say is that it took me a little to understand which of the services was the best for my specific business.

### "Saves me time! And they get it right!"

January 11, 2023

5.0

Super pleased! Saves me tons of time and I'm no longer getting regular messages from the IRS telling me I messed up.

Pros

I just finished our yearly tax process. What normally takes me several days took less than 2 hours! I should have started using these guys years ago!

Cons

There is no app for employees to log in.

### "Good but…"

June 30, 2022

4.0

Pros

Patriot is low cost if you don’t have many employees and the need to do same day or next day direct deposit.

Cons

The direct deposit lead time is too slow.

### "Would like to see consideration for the smaller 1 man shops"

January 6, 2021

4.0

Pros

My accountant uses you, so it's super easy in that regard

Cons

Being a one man shop, the last payroll company I used only charged the fee on the months that I used payroll. Being a one person shop, I may pay myself quarterly, or even twice a year. It would be nice for the smaller companies like mine if we were only charges on the months that you actually provided payroll or reports.

### "Patriot Software"

January 14, 2021

5.0

It is hard for me to remember to run payroll direct deposits on Monday.

Pros

The customer service is awesome. The historical reports on payroll have been quite useful.

Cons

Could not easily give a bonus separately.

Reason for choosing Patriot Software

My husband had heard their ads and suggested them.

### "Value & Ease Of Use"

May 18, 2020

5.0

Pros

Software is easy to understand, easy to operate and provides all the information I need immediately I value this expenditure. It has made my business easier to operate and at less cost than my previous payroll provider

Cons

I would like to havthe option for my payroll to run automatically unless I make contact otherwise. I am on a salary, so my payroll is identical every month. This would reduce my monthly effort to ZERO. A monthly email to me reminding me of the date Patriot will run my payroll and that I should contact Patriot if I do NOT want them to automatically run my payroll.

### "New User - So far so good"

June 4, 2021

5.0

We really like it so far and are about to try the add-on time sheet feature.

Pros

It's a really simple software - I'm not an accountant, I'm more of a creative. Patriot really does everything for us so I don't have to think about it too much. My accountant can log in as a user and make sure things are going well and give me tips or make changes when needed. They also can import right to our P/L statement.

Cons

I have to hit "run payroll" to get to the dashboard right now. Not sure if that's a user problem unique to me, but I'd rather just go to the dashboard by default.

### "Does the job, but not impressed"

September 25, 2020

3.0

Wish I had a dedicated account manager that could help, payroll is such a important part of our business just don’t feel like I get the support I need from patriot

Pros

The easel set up, the transfer to QuickBooks was certainly a plus.

Cons

The time for direct deposit is very excessive, it says four business days, but on Labor Day it wouldn’t allow me to do even that, it pushed my payroll back. Very frustrated

Price, and intuit support is lousy. Patriot is slightly better but that’s not saying too much.

Easy to use for the most part.

Pros

This software makes payroll very easy for us. My employees have some control over their paystub access and love the easy to use time clock ⏰.

### "Payroll made easy"

March 16, 2022

5.0

Pros

Setting up the payroll and integration with accounting service was a smooth transition from the Quick Books payroll service. In addition especially if you are using simple payroll the cost is 4 times less per month. Lastly the CSR's are knowledgeable and professional. Wait times for chat and call back's have not exceeded 5 minutes which is impossible to value.

Cons

At this point I haven't run into any issues.

Reason for choosing Patriot Software

January 5, 2021

5.0

Using Patriot payroll ensures my tax filings are on time and up to date as well as eliminating time for processing payroll.

Pros

Running payroll is effortless after setting up. The software takes the guesswork out of processing payroll.

Cons

Chat staff is more familiar with secular verses religious institutions. Feel staff should be trained on categories that reflect religious institutions.
