### "Gusto has been a software that has helped to my enterprise in human resource management since 2y ago"

June 1, 2018

4.0

I could enhanced some tools in my enterprise. Human Resources Management is less complicated and more secure.

Pros

What I like the most, is the dashboard ant its elements. It is really easy to use and and easy to understand.

Cons

Sometimes it got stuck, but maybe it is because of the gadget you are using. The colors (theme) is pale, sometimes we need some fun for the eyes.

June 26, 2018

5.0

This is a great website for companies to use for payroll. It is user-friendly and is easy to download any information your employees need.

Pros

Gusto communicates clearly when there activity in your account and the website is easy to navigate through.

Cons

The front page called the Dashboard doesn't always have much information on it so it doesn't feel much like a Dashboard.

April 8, 2019

Very nice tool to easily manage all your HR issues.

Pros

As an employee, this tool is very easy to work with. All HR related matters in one single tool, where you can manage your vacations, benefits and personal info (which is available).

Cons

It should have a better functionality to schedule your vacation and take into account your team member's vacations.

August 14, 2020

2.0

Pros

Gusto is easy to see the hours and the cashout option is wonderful

Cons

It logs you out and you have to refresh the page several times to log back in. It is very slow and doesn't provide updated hours for the hourly employees

### "A nice solution for simple payroll needs"

March 19, 2019

5.0

Overall, this has solved my problem of needing to have payroll, and it does it painlessly for me. I would recommend this software for others like myself -- sole proprietors who need to run payroll but without all the bells and whistles. As far as I can tell, though, they are certainly equipped to handle larger companies as well. I'm glad I made the switch to Gusto.

Pros

The best thing about Gusto for me was the price. Coming from a much more expensive payroll solution, I appreciate that there is a single monthly fee that isn't dependent upon how often I run payroll in that month. The software itself is nice and user-friendly. I have not experienced any bugs or glitches. I log in and can find what I need to do (run payroll) easily. They are proactive in reminding me when payroll is due and prompting for any information that I need to provide.

Cons

Getting started was a little tricky as I wasn't entirely sure what I was doing, or if I was supplying the correct information. I think some hand-holding would have been nice for first-timers like myself. To Gusto's credit, they did reach out via phone once I had opened my account to answer any questions. However, the one time I reached out to them (via online chat), I never received the response promised via email.

### "Gusto is the way to go!"

June 15, 2021

5.0

Gusto has made payroll simplified and helped to walk through the process for quick set up. Customer service is awesome and so the the reference materials for help. They want you to stay compliant as you should.

Pros

Affordable, easy set up, log in authentication, customer service, and ability to integrate with our bookkeeping accounting system. These are all very important to our small nonprofit. The ability to pay set up and pay contractors, set up PTO, create offer letters. They also do more backend stuff like pay federal taxes. Can run and create reports.

Cons

Nothing that I lease like about Gusto. Gusto is going to be with our small organization.

### "Gusto is for every Startup"

April 29, 2019

5.0

I have had the best experience using Gusto's software, customer support teams and simple tools that make my business not only compliant but fin!

Pros

Ease of the use of the software and Gusto makes it so that no matter how large or small your company can succeed with being totally compliant in both fed and state.

Cons

Gusto does not offer enough benefits for startups that are comprised of teams less than 5 people.

### "Easy to Use, Easy to Navigate"

September 5, 2019

5.0

Really great for keeping track of employees payroll. Very easy to use, and although this is a complex subject, Gusto makes it so easy to understand and provided the information requested.

Pros

I like how simple it is to input employee information in the set up. Payroll deductions can be setup. Fast payroll processing.

Cons

There are a lot of features and options to go through in the set up. Also, it is a bit higher price.

### "Too many extra buttons"

January 2, 2019

4.0

Pros

Some customers of our company prefer Gusto for payroll, so we also had to install this software and explore its capabilities. As a result, I can say that I advise this software to all new business owners who do not have a payroll. Gusto is easy to install, relatively quick to configure, and has all the functionality necessary to start.

Cons

Not all available settings and functions can be found easily. In the software there is a huge number of different links and buttons, which, as it turns out, interact with the same element.

### "Makes the work very easy"

July 28, 2021

5.0

Overall, this has made life easier and simpler than it used to be before!

Pros

The software is easy to use. Very simple UI. Also it can cater to specific demands and tailor the software to as demanded.

Cons

I think sometimes it is heavy on the RAM, and makes calculations and other processing slow. But overall it is good.

### "An all-in-one payroll and benefits solution"

December 5, 2019

5.0

We used to use Gusto to handle our payroll and benefits for our employees.

Pros

Gusto is super easy to set up and handles all the headaches and paperworks surrounding payroll (e.g. taxes, deposits) and benefits.

Cons

The pricing is fairly expensive, they did not honor my referral bonus, they do not offer device policy enforcement / MDM like other competitors.

### "Simple and Easy Payroll Tracking"

November 5, 2021

5.0

Great user experience and easy to use.

Pros

The interface was simple and intuitive to track my current pay period, hours worked, next paycheck timing, and tax documentation. The email notifications were also great for paydays and tax document availability.

Cons

There isn't anything that I didn't like about Gusto- would highly recommend to employers because it's a great user experience.

March 28, 2022

5.0

Overall, as an employee and subcontractor, it is a great tool for me to communicate with my employer about pay and my benefits.

Pros

I liked that I was able to log in and see all the information I am needing quick instead of having to search all over the site. Like time off and pay history, as a user, Gusto is great!

Cons

I haven't run into any issues yet and everything has been very easy to use.

### "LOVE this as my payroll software"

July 9, 2019

5.0

Love it. I wasn't sure what to expect coming from a typical company where accounting and payroll handled everything for us, but this far better.

Pros

As a user, I absolutely LOVE getting my paystub emailed to me directly, seeing exactly what is coming out each paycheck, what my overall cost to my company is, etc. I never have to bother accounting, all of the information is at my fingertips anytime I want it - AND I can make changes whenever I want.

Cons

Nothing really. everything is very user friendly and easy to navigate.

### "Gusto is an awesome tool for reducing the complexities of payroll. "

January 10, 2018

5.0

I get to paid (it's payroll software).

Pros

Gusto is easy to use and is very active in informing you of changes that you need to be aware of. It seems like they are always making things easier for you by adding new tools and functionalities to make payroll easier. For example, I just saw today that they added an autopilot feature for payroll, which is really going to help me out.

Cons

Interface is easy to use but sometimes I have to ask customer support where to find basic things like the payroll schedule because it's not laid out in a very organized manor. Perhaps it is and I just don't know the website very well. I've been using the website for about 2 years now and I'm not 100% familiar with how it's laid out, I guess that speaks to how intuitive it is to use.

### "Gusto makes payroll a snap"

February 9, 2021

5.0

Gusto saves me a lot of time by taking care of all the back-end payroll taxes and accounting. After I onboard an employee, I just enter the hours they work every pay period and Gusto takes care of everything else. I've been happy with their customer service the couple times I've had an issue to resolve. I would highly recommend them to small businesses.

Pros

I only have a few employees and don't have a dedicated accountant or accounting service. I don't want to spend a lot of my time on payroll management, so Gusto is well worth the money. Gusto saves me a ton of time and effort trying to figure out how to manage payroll and payroll taxes.

Cons

Honestly, I've been completely satisfied with Gusto. I can't think of any features I wish that it had. My needs are simple, so maybe a more complex business would have complaints, but I don't.

### "Gusto Makes it (Irritatingly) Easy to Pay Taxes"

October 12, 2018

5.0

Intellitonic switched to Gusto last month and it is already saving a lot of time. It's organized and cohesive, and sets up forms to make them super quick to fill out. So far so good!

Pros

I just started at a digital marketing company called Intellitonic. Beforehand, I had been freelancing like crazy on top of my previous full-time job. I thought I'd continue the trend, and filled in my tax info accordingly. Naturally, I didn't end up freelancing nearly as much as I thought I would, and needed to redo my taxes immediately. Gusto gave me the right forms, cut to the chase so it took 2 minutes. Signed and done just like that.

Cons

The one problem I have faced so far is I had a new form to sign and Gusto didn't let me know. I only found out because I opened the website and the form was waiting for me. Probably some kinks they need to work out in their default notifications.

### "I heart Gusto!"

January 5, 2017

5.0

In December of last year, I found myself taking over payroll for the company that I work for. I quickly learned that our payroll process was very time-consuming and did not run very smooth at all. I suggested that we change our process to the owners of our company and that is when I stumbled across Gusto. I had zero payroll experience and I was spending 1-2 days a week working on payroll. As COO I did not have the time to spend on payroll the way that it was set up. Once we started Gusto and got everything set up it now takes me maybe 30 minutes every two weeks to run payroll. Gusto has excellent customer service and they are very helpful to people like me, who have zero payroll processing experience.

Pros

Easy to use.

I've used Gusto for about 2 years now and for the most part, it's been super easy to use. I appreciate that it is user friendly and easy to find things and understand what is what. I very much appreciate being able to easily download and print what I need as well.

Pros

I like that I can easily access all my tax forms and paystubs from one location and print off what I need whenever I need it.

Cons

It is hard to update some of the forms. I really like everything else about Gusto, though. It's been really nice and easy to use.
