### "Complete refusal to offer customer service"

October 11, 2019

2.0

I had heard good things, but unfortunately, their customer service falls short. Rather than be proactive, and attempt to resolve the concern I had, I was told to try calling another number, because they couldn't help me. They claim an inability to make outbound calls, despite the fact that I have received calls from them during the setup process. Poor service across the board.

Pros

It is inexpensive, but unfortunately, that is all it is.

Cons

The cookie-cutter approach gives almost no options, which is needed in certain industries

I was looking for a simpler and less expensive payroll solution, but Gusto failed to be that solution. Gusto's software is too rigid, and their customer service people do not seem to understand basic payroll law.

### "Useful"

February 18, 2020

4.0

It worked the way it was supposed to and I wasn't paying so I had no complaints.

Pros

I was using Gusto when I was in charge of payroll for a small nonprofit entity that was working on automating and digitizing certain tasks. Gusto made things easy, but I wasn't the bookkeeper so I'm not certain it didn't later need to be reconciled. It did make tax reporting easy though.

Cons

Seems expensive for what we were using it for. Because we were only using it for payroll, we may have been better off with a different system.

### "Helps streamline HR management - ease of use and efficiency. "

April 10, 2018

5.0

Pros

Gusto provides a seamless user interface and the navigation is intuitive. I like that this software helps you keep organized employee records and offers efficient automation of our processes. It is also useful for organizing practices for contractors and part-time employees. The customer support team is extremely helpful and available.

Cons

It doesn't happen often, but sometimes we will need brief weekend support. Even if it was a chat box or a quick way to contact them during the off hours.

### "Mostly Streamlined"

February 11, 2022

4.0

Pros

Clear process for onboarding business initially and employees individually.

Cons

It forces registration for accounts not relevant. For example, the process required me to seek out worker's comp insurance and contact an adjuster, only to find out my business type and my state did not warrant that effort.

### "Excellent HR tools"

September 1, 2018

4.0

It is a value for money software, reducing a lot of workload for calculations and tracking.

Pros

It saves you a lot of time on running payroll, it automatically links with apps and calculates salary and taxes. Paperwork for new recruits can be efficiently updated and the pay dates for the employees can also be easily edited. Easy donations and tax deposition can be directly paid from the account. With other features, there are also reminders for birthdays and anniversaries, adding on to the efficiency.

Cons

Without any notification on the website, there is no service support on holidays. The reports also have to be downloaded for viewing. Other issue is that they charge for all the employees, even if they are not receiving salary for that time. The is no application available, so it has to be accessed through the web.

### "poor customer service and deceptive practices"

December 3, 2018

1.0

Pros

i liked that they usually took care of all the tax filings with little input from me. onboarding and most administered tasks were simplified.

Cons

they missed filings, they lied about their referral program and would not pay me for my referrals. Do not bother referring anyone as you won't see a dime. I have switched payroll and so did my referrals. We switched to Square and they pay for the referrals. Also the pricing is better with square and they offer everything gusto does but with better customer service at a cheaper price.

### "Perfectly Priced HR Management for Payroll and Benefits"

June 9, 2020

5.0

I think Gusto is perfect for small business owners and I would recommend it. Down to having contract employees, Gusto can help with that.

Pros

What I liked most about Gusto was it helps keep businesses of all sizes compliant. The pricing isn't outrageous and there are so many features so you aren't have to use different programs, companies, sources, etc.

Cons

There could be some minor improvements to the dashboard and the availability times of support. Payroll scheduling can be limited.

### "Easy to use program that keeps all my payroll / time off / benefit information in one place."

May 15, 2018

5.0

It's an easy to use program that I enjoy having all my payroll / time off / benefits data close by whenever i need to find it.

Pros

I like having all my data for payroll / time off / benefits in one place to easily access. I usually sign in from my mobile device when I get paid and it's nice to get the summary email delivered to me.

Cons

I haven't had any real negative experience with this program, I am just a user of it to check my information. But so far that has all been good with no problems or reasons for me to personally reach out to gusto for support.

### "Modern and Fast"

September 23, 2020

4.0

It's a modern paycheck tool for a modern world. It's super easy to split checks into savings and checking accounts, and do all the little things that you should be able to do with your money.

Pros

Gusto is a huge improvement over the previous paycheck software my company was using. The user interface alone is so much more modernized.

Cons

There are limited navigation options on the side, which makes it a little difficult to figure out where to go edit your bank account direct deposit information, etc.

### "Simple and Clean HR Software"

February 23, 2022

5.0

Pros

Gusto has a very clean interface and everything is easy to find and use. It also lets you get part of your paycheck early if you need it which is super helpful.

Cons

The only con I've found is that there was no way to edit time off requests. You had to completely cancel it and then make a new request.
