### "My go-to Payroll"

December 21, 2018

5.0

Pros

Ease of use, user experience - nice balance between form and function

Cons

Nothing yet. I don't do much on Gusto, but for all I do, it is a pleasure. Perhaps when I grow I will run into cons, but none at this time.

### "Good way to pay"

November 2, 2018

4.0

Pros

The display and interface was simple to use and setup. Adding users to payroll through Gusto was easy and did not take up much time.

Cons

The software was a little more expensive that I would have liked to pay.

### "Gusto has a huge value "

February 12, 2020

5.0

Overall, Gusto has made my life much easier. Gusto’s user friendless and ease is a huge value to me. I love how direct and simple it is to use and understand. It simplified everything for me and I’ve never had any complaints. I am sure our HR Manager also appreciates it as Gusto usually answers any questions I have.

Pros

What I like most about Gusto is how straight forward it is. It takes all the complex terminology and presents it in simple terms. It pretty much eliminates the headaches that come with federal and state documents. It’s a helping hand that I wish I had when I first started working.

Cons

Not sure I can say I have a least dislike about Gusto. Every software has room for improvement but as a user, I honestly don’t have any concerns with Gusto. I’ve never had an issue with the software and will recommend it to any company to seeks my input.

### "New Customer"

December 11, 2019

5.0

It has solved an issue where I had my client's all using a different payroll provider. I have been able to consolidate them. As an accounting firm, I also love being a Gusto "partner".

Pros

I love the user interface and the updated "look and feel" Gusto has. As a younger professional having software be intuitive and fresh is important. The old looking and cumbersome software are less appealing to me. I have been able to move most if not all my clients to Gusto to start the 2020 year.

Cons

The way the line items are fed into Xero/Quickbooks is a bit off sometimes. Other than that is has been great.

### "Everything was in one place!!!"

September 27, 2021

5.0

Cons

I do not have any complaints about gusto.

### "Best move for our payroll"

May 23, 2019

5.0

Pros

The ease of use and how they handle many tasks for you. You do not have to do much other than run payroll every pay period.

Cons

Nothing really. We moved from older style payroll to this and absolutely love it.

### "Very Good Software"

November 5, 2019

5.0

Overall I was a fan of being able to be hands on and make the decisions I needed by submitting requests and ensuring the onboarding would be a breeze but the rest of the team no so much, I would say know the climate of your office and maybe ask some informative questions before you fully commit.

Pros

What I loved most was how it allowed the important tasks for the office to be streamlined. After setting it up the HR person seemed to really enjoy how simple it made her job to gather information from employees and file it away or send it to the manager.

Cons

For my team, they were not a fan of the functionality. They seemed to not understand the features and that lead to poor usage. We thought giving them some self service would be the best thing and they were not a fan of it.

### "Comprehensive program for benefits & payroll"

April 3, 2019

5.0

Pros

It was pretty user-friendly with a good support system.

Cons

You have to educate staff on how to use it properly. If they write to the "administrator," they have to be careful what they write, because it is going to an internal person, not Gusto!

### "Great software, makes payroll very easy"

February 6, 2020

5.0

Very satisfied. Have already recommended to others.

Pros

Intuitive interface, many options, helpful on-screen hints, and great price.

Cons

Can't think of anything really. In fact, not only is the software solid, but when you use it they have put a sense of humor in the interface.

Reason for choosing Gusto

It was recommended by a contractor our office worked with. The online product tour was helpful, and we have been happy with Gusto for payroll ever since.

### "A well organized place to view all things HR"

May 22, 2018

5.0

Pros

Gusto is nice because it organizes all of the important payroll, insurance information, and other HR documents, and makes them easier to find. As an employee, I just want to be able to find what I need without having to dig around, and Gusto makes that easy.

Cons

Hard to find anything that's not to like. The design is nice, navigation is simple, and it provides me all the information that I need.

### "All at my fingertips!"

June 25, 2021

5.0

Pros

Gusto has made reviewing my paystubs and earnings easy. You just log in and can review any of your past paystubs and get information about your benefits very conveniently.

Cons

When you want to download a grouping of paystubs it makes it all into one continuous pdf instead of separate for each pay period. That annoys me.

### "Get it done with Gusto"

February 21, 2019

4.0

It's not top of the line nor the Cadillac of payroll programs but it gets the job done and the price is more then reasonable. You get what you pay for so if simple and inexpensive is your foal ding ding ding you hit the jackpot!

Pros

Easy to use and price is right. Low cost and simple function

Cons

Payroll deposits say the come form Gusto instead of our company really that's the only big issue I have

### "Gusto review"

August 5, 2020

5.0

We have used the application for our family business to solve our payroll issues and it's quite helpfull.

Pros

Costumer support is really amazing and responsive. The application is user friendly and it has super functionalities. Fully recommended.

Cons

The price is good for the market, it's something in the middle price. Hopefully, they will not increase the price in the near future.

### "This has been a great asset to our business."

May 15, 2018

5.0

Pros

Consolidates work for us. Easy to use and takes hours of work off of our hands. This has been a lifesaver.

Cons

Nothing that is a show stopper, just some minor interface items but overall the software has been great and does what we want.

### "Life Changing. No more paying payroll taxes and doing tedious calculations"

November 5, 2019

5.0

Beyond pleased. I don't know what I am going to do with all of my saved time and stress, but I can't begin to thank Gusto enough. I am uterly shocked with how easy it is to run payroll. A monkey could run payroll. My 3 year old niece probably could as well. Gusto truly does make it THAT EASY!

Pros

I am shocked with how easy Gusto makes it for us to do payroll. Honestly so easy a monkey could do it. We used to have to deal with calculating all of the appropriate taxes and then remit them to the right entities and hope that we did it right. Now we run payroll in less than 5 minutes. I love the time tracking feature and even more I love that I can download a pdf of the time sheet for the period to send it to our owner for approval before I run payroll.

Cons

I really wish there was a way to integrate with Quickbooks so that we can do job costing. I understand this is a big ask, but it would make choosing Gusto over Quickbooks payroll a no brainer.

May 2, 2023

Great product, we use it weekly with ease.

Pros

The customer service team were quick to help get us set up and were very informative about the different features of Gusto.

Cons

It cannot be connected to our current timeclock but that has not impacted us much.

### "Everything We Need"

August 28, 2019

5.0

We love having this complete HR package so that we can focus on serving our clients rather than worrying over the nitty-gritty of finances and benefits.

Pros

It's an all-in-one package that gives us freedom to focus on the day-to-day without having to worry about different taxes or how to pay for benefits. It really does provide excellent customer service as well whenever we have any questions!

Cons

It's not really an issue, but there are some different features that you have to pay more to access. However, that is understandable seeing as you get SO MANY features with the base payment.

Reason for choosing Gusto

I don't recall the other products, but the price point for Gusto and what it provides was the big win. The more we use it, the more we value what we're getting!

September 29, 2020

### "Gusto makes time entry and payroll easy for small businesses. "

December 14, 2021

5.0

Pros

I love that I have access to all aspects of human resources documents and materials I may need on a given day. We used to use a separate software for payroll and time entry, so having everything in one place is awesome.

Cons

I find that navigating the browser version of Gusto is much different from the phone application. This can make it difficult to give remote employees direction on how to navigate through tabs/features.

### "There's a Gusto for anyone"

April 16, 2019

5.0

Great, absolutely. I would definitely recommend this software.

Pros

There are so many pros about using this software. I would start by saying that it has a perfect friends user interface and that makes lives so much easier. For example, one of the main features is that there is a free trial and this software automatically gives the chance not only to calculate but also to pay payroll taxes. I would use two main words to describe this product: huge automation and unbelievable innovation. These ones are mixed together in a software that gives high levels of satisfaction to its users.

Cons

Unfortunately customer service is not available on weekends, so I would personally add this feature in order to keep old customers loyal and to attract new ones.

### "Near perfect payroll experience for SME's like mine!"

May 8, 2018

5.0

Payroll made fun and (user) friendly that makes it simple to administer your HR duties!

Pros

Very creative ways to give information with cool little tidbits. Has lots of character therefore and is a pleasure to use everyday.

Cons

If I could nitpick, I'd say that they lack a mobile app so that I can handle payroll easily on my mobile. I hope that day comes in the near future!
