### "Excellent Company"

July 8, 2026

5.0

Overall Paycom is a wonderful company and one that I always refer people too when I am at meeting. You truly do get a great service and value for your money. They are good people and will go the extra mile to make sure you get what you need.

Pros

The customer support and how easy the reporting is within Paycom. I also like the fact that you can geed instant feedback from your account manager.

Cons

The only issue I run into is when you upload a tax letter there does not seem to be any notification or communication back once the issue is resolved.

### "Automation at its best"

June 24, 2026

5.0

Overall I am happy with Paycom. When we do have an issue, I get support from our rep, so I don't typically wait long for a resolution. and we have no intention of switching to a different platform.

Pros

Ease of Use - Paycom has streamlined many of our processes and has kept our HR staff overhead to a minimum

Cons

I dislike how the periodic updates can mess up your system. These updates get applied site wide whether you wanted the change or not and sometimes, I struggle to see the value in some of these changes. I also think they should be better prepared on the "new change" and how it will affect your system. Its not usually found until an employee complains about not being able to see something or do something they used to be able to do. After that Paycom always has a work around but its frustrating that it takes an employee to find the error before it can be fixed. I wish Paycom was more intuitive on how that new update affects MY system. And maybe that is on the specific rep to be on top of those things, but whatever the case, that's the one CON, I have.

### "User-Friendly: Easy for Employees to Navigate; Needs Patience on the Administrative Side"

June 25, 2026

3.0

Overall, Paycom is a solid, comprehensive platform. There is definitely a learning curve and some frustration when dealing with the back-end setup, but once the system is configured properly, things run smoothly and it works exactly as it's supposed to.

Pros

The employee self-service side of Paycom is fantastic. It is incredibly easy to navigate, and our team loves having all of their payroll and HR information readily available in one place. On the client side, I regularly used the expense management feature to track and add our company credit card expenses, which streamlined our process. As a supervisor of the payroll team, I also found the day-to-day payroll functionality and brief HR features we utilized to be very reliable once fully operational.

Cons

Some of the back-end features and initial configurations are quite complex and difficult to set up properly on your own. We frequently needed a lot of hands-on assistance from Paycom’s support team to get everything configured correctly.

### "Just say YES to Paycom! "

May 28, 2026

5.0

Overall I am very satisfied with the platform. I have been in Human Resources for over 20 years and have worked in other de-centralized systems. I have a deep appreciation for Paycom and the ability to have everything I need in one system.

Pros

I love that every aspect of my employee data is at my fingertips. I also appreciate that Paycom is always trying to improve the platform to provide employers the best experience. I feel competent in Paycom, Paycom created a platform that makes it easy for me to ensure I am using all parts of the system!

Cons

The customer support has had high turnover. We have been fortunate with our current team, however that has not always been the case.

### "Streamlining HR and Payroll Operations"

July 29, 2026

5.0

Overall, Paycom has been a valuable tool for managing our HR and payroll functions. Having payroll, benefits, onboarding, and employee data in one system helps reduce manual work and improves efficiency. There are occasional challenges with reporting and system navigation, but the platform generally meets our needs and provides a solid foundation for managing our workforce and maintaining compliance requirements.

Pros

Paycom provides a comprehensive HR and payroll platform that centralizes employee information, payroll processing, benefits administration, and reporting in one system. The employee self-service features are easy to use and help reduce administrative workload. Reporting capabilities and workflow automation have also been valuable for managing HR processes more efficiently.

Cons

Some areas of the system can be complex to navigate, particularly when configuring reports or making certain administrative changes. There can be a learning curve for new users, and some processes require additional steps compared to other platforms. System customization options may also be limited in certain areas.

### "Several Options Available but the base features are gold"

July 21, 2026

4.0

We've been Paycom customers for about 10 years and it can feel like it's a lot to learn but overall it has been a very positive partnership for us because it is able to merge the HR and payroll features nicely. Overall a 9 out of 10 for our experience and they've always had professional and friendly service.

Pros

I love that Paycom has a system that you can house all of the HRIS documents things like applications integrated in from indeed postings, onboarding online, checks and balances, employees able to update their own information with backup attached for approval.

Cons

Paycom is in the process of updating their look from a computer program look and feel to more app based feel, so things are changing. AI is being integrated and it's a learning system so it takes a while to find the right terminology for what you want to do. There are a lot of newer options that sound great but aren't always worth the cost.

### "Payroll Specilist"

July 1, 2026

5.0

Paycom has been a valuable tool for managing payroll and workforce administration. The platform is user-friendly, and features like timesheets, PTO requests, and payroll access have made the overall experience smooth and convenient. While there is room for minor improvements, it has been a dependable solution overall.

Pros

Paycom has made payroll and time tracking very easy and efficient. The platform is user-friendly, and I appreciate being able to manage timesheets, time-off requests, and payroll information all in one place.

Cons

The mobile app could be more intuitive, and some features require multiple clicks to complete simple tasks. A more streamlined navigation experience would make it even better.

Pros

Paycom makes everything from payroll to HR tasks much easier to handle overall. It also provides a user-friendly portal for supervisors to access to approve timecards, submit various pay changes/lateral changes, and manage employee reviews all in one place. Our dedicated team is also wonderful and very helpful in finding answers whenever we run into questions or issues.

Cons

Cons

Overall, working with Paycom has been positive. I credit most of that to our implementation with \[sensitive content hidden\] and our service rep,\[sensitive content hidden\]. \[sensitive content hidden\] is always quick to answer any questions and communicate back with us if he doesn't know the answer. Although, it's not often that he doesn't know the answer right away.

Pros

\[sensitive content hidden\] is an amazing service rep. He is very knowledgeable and responsive. Most of the site is user friendly and easy to navigate.

Cons

The talent and position management parts i think are the ones that need to be updated most. They are a little clunky to use. Mainly the position management part can be frustrating since it doesn't seem to pass information through it. Such as if a director or manager leaves having to reassign all of their employees to report to someone else. \*Also need more Paycom swag and merch.

It's been a tough road since our previous leadership did not want to setup Paycom correctly and we are now having a ton of issues. We are finally slowly getting the help we need to fix things and I think it will then be a great product.

Pros

I'm glad we found out and used your benefit administrator. He was such a huge help! I also like that there isn't a lot of unnecessary pictures and decorations.

Cons

None can help me find a report to run after open enrollment for benefits, so I know which employees and or dependents need COBRA notices. Which is crazy since it is a requirement for all business to send them out.

### "Highly Recommend Paycom"

April 29, 2026

5.0

I have used Paycom for over 5 years and have recommended switching to Paycom when I encounter a business using another platform. Paycom's sales, onboarding, and support divisions communicate effectively and help clients feel secure and learn how to get the most out of the Paycom system.

Pros

Paycom's system feels organic rather than cobbled together like other systems. Paycom listens to their clients and may make adjustments to their system if the recommendation has merit. I appreciate their dedicated team customer service model. I always get an answer.

Cons

Some team members are not as experienced as others in all aspects of Paycom. Regardless, it seems that the team always finds a subject matter expert to get answers/results for clients.

### "Easy to use time saver!"

May 8, 2026

5.0

Paycom has made my life as an HR manager so much easier. Payroll only takes moments now instead of hours. Nearly anything I want to accomplish in my position can be done in one place now! It's also allowed me to delegate tasks back to our supervisors, as they can access everything they need on their end as well through the app.

Pros

Everything on Paycom is quick and easy to do. Since the program uses one code for everything, it's very streamline and intuitive. I've tried other payroll providers in the past that were difficult to navigate and each task involved opening multiple windows. We were able to replace several programs with only Paycom. The app is a great resource, and our managers can use it on the fly in the field. They also have amazing customer service, when I do need help they respond right away, and offer advice and guidance on how to use the tools.

Cons

There's honestly very little I don't like, but one that that was tricky is it's VERY customizable. There are features that I was slower to use because there was a bit of work up front to make them do what I wanted. Once you put the time in to set it up though, it save so much time in the long run having your processes automated.

I feel heard and treated with respect. Development recommendations are genuinely considered. They check in periodically to make sure you are getting your full value from the system and review best practices.

Pros

Everytime you turn around, Paycom is developing something new. Innovation is their middle name! And could we please give our client rep, \[sensitive content hidden\], a round of applause?! She is like a dog with a bone and chews on an issue until there is nothing left to chew on.

### "Excellent Support and Continuous Improvement"

June 24, 2026

4.0

Overall, our experience with Paycom has been very positive. The platform is user-friendly, continually evolving, and backed by exceptional customer support. The combination of ongoing product improvements, responsive service, and a willingness to listen to customer feedback makes Paycom a valuable partner. Whenever questions or issues arise, we receive prompt assistance, and the available training resources make it easy for our team to learn and use the system effectively. We look forward to seeing how the platform continues to grow and meet our future needs.

Pros

Paycom is constantly improving and updating its platform, which shows their commitment to meeting customer needs. One of the biggest advantages is the level of support they provide. We have a dedicated Paycom representative who is always available to answer questions and help resolve issues quickly. Our organization requires a lot of customization, and Paycom is willing to work with us to find solutions whenever possible. Even when a request cannot be accommodated immediately, they listen to customer feedback and consider it for future enhancements. Their extensive training library is also a huge benefit, and if we cannot find what we need in the training materials, our representative is always willing to provide additional guidance.

Cons

There are still a few features and capabilities we would like to see added to the platform. Some of our unique business needs require workarounds, and additional customization options would be helpful. However, Paycom has been receptive to feedback and continues to evolve the system, so we are confident many of these needs may be addressed in future updates.

### "Paycom helps us streamline!"

July 9, 2026

5.0

What I appreciate most is that Paycom continues to innovate. We've worked together on process improvements, automation opportunities, and new ways to make our hiring process more efficient. As our organization has grown, the platform has grown with us. As someone who works in Talent Acquisition every day, I value having a system that allows us to move candidates through the hiring process more efficiently while keeping everything organized in one place. The reporting capabilities have also given us valuable insights that help us make better recruiting decisions and continually improve our processes. A special thank you to our Paycom team for always being responsive, listening to our feedback, and partnering with us as we continue to enhance our recruiting and HR operations. Great technology is important, but having people who truly care about your success makes all the difference. Thank you, Paycom, for being a valued partner in helping us build a better employee experience at LUMA Residential. Here's to continued innovation and many more improvements ahead!

Pros

One of the best technology investments we've made at LUMA Residential has been our partnership with Paycom. Over the past several years, we've continued to evolve the way we use the platform, and it has become much more than just an HRIS. From recruiting and applicant tracking to onboarding, workflows, document management, reporting, and employee self-service, Paycom has helped us streamline processes and create a better experience for both our candidates and employees.

Cons

Can't think of any. They do have updates monthly but they will show them all to you and they are usually improvements!

### "User-Friendly Platform with Excellent Customer Support!"

July 23, 2026

4.0

Overall, I've really enjoyed using Paycom. While there are a few minor enhancements I've shared with the Paycom team, my overall experience has been very positive. The platform is intuitive and easy to navigate, even for someone who has never used Paycom before. One feature I especially appreciate is the "I Want" menu, which makes it simple to find what you're looking for and has been incredibly helpful as someone who was new to the system.

Pros

I've had a great experience with the customer service team. They're always responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. We also really like the new Paycom layout—it's visually appealing, modern, and much easier to navigate, making the overall user experience even better.

Cons

There are a few areas that could use some fine-tuning, especially within Payroll. One improvement I'd like to see is the ability to remove a single data file without having to restart the entire payroll process. That would make troubleshooting and correcting issues much more efficient.

### "Fantastic HRIS! "

June 24, 2026

4.0

Overall, I am satisfied with using Paycom. I have used other HRIS and by far, the customer support and workshop is what sells me. It's easier to provide feedback on features and have a walkthrough of the product.

Pros

I love the customer support and team collaboration! We always are excited to have Caleb, our Account executive come over to have workshops with us when we have new ideas or modules to roll out. The workshop- incredible! Makes using Paycom a lot easier and simple to understand!

Cons

Some of the updates are not rolled out well. I often wonder what made them come up with certain updates with there are times when a module or section did not need to be "fixed". Another small thing is that their communciation about these updates are not ideal. They communicate with webinars that talk about the updates but they don't provide a easier playbook anymore to review it. Unfortunately, not everyone has the time to watch the webinars.

### "Average with Room to Grow."

April 30, 2026

3.0

Overall, my experience with Paycom has been average. The software itself has potential. There are hiccups and some things are updated on a delay. If communication can improve (see cons for details) I think a lot more development can occur.

Pros

I appreciate the use of dashboards. Dashboards make it easy to see all pending items, especially within a team of multiple associates. This allows any of use to check status at any time.

Cons

There are often times reports or sections within the system stop working. I have had multiple instances where a report I've been using for 1 year+ stops producing the content it used. Recently, after trial and error of multiple fields with our designated Paycom rep, we came to a conclusion that the developers changed something on the backend, impacting the given report. The other element that is a significant con, is the business structure and how they manage communications. Their process for communications starts at the top. They reach out the \[sensitive content hidden\] etc. when there are changes like a new sales rep being assigned to your account. However, unless your company is a small business, this is very inefficient. This results in the boots on the ground HR staff not being updated because executive management received an email communication that did not see. I understand wanting to include them from a sales perspective, but including all parties would be the better approach. That way the HR staff can discuss with their executive leadership and these communications do not get missed.

### "Excellent All-in-One HR & Payroll Solution"

April 8, 2026

5.0

My overall experience with Paycom has been very positive. It has helped improve efficiency within our HR and payroll processes and reduced manual work. The platform is reliable, organized, and continues to evolve with useful updates. It has made a noticeable difference in how we manage employee information and payroll, and it has helped create a smoother experience for both HR staff and employees

Pros

Paycom has been an excellent all-in-one HR and payroll solution for our organization. The system is very user-friendly and makes managing payroll, benefits, and employee data extremely efficient. I especially appreciate how employees can access their own information, submit requests, and make updates through the self-service feature, which saves our HR team a significant amount of time. The reporting tools are also very helpful and allow us to quickly generate accurate data when needed. Overall, Paycom streamlines processes that used to take much longer.

Cons

While Paycom is a great system overall, there can be a slight learning curve when first getting started, especially with some of the more advanced features and reporting tools. However, once you become familiar with the platform, it becomes much easier to navigate and use effectively.
