This software keeps my paystubs and benefit information organized in one place. After signing up, it was a simple process of choosing my benefits and comparing. The dashboard is easy and functional. I appreciate the email reminders as well.

### "Great app for payroll"

May 24, 2016

5.0

At my company we use Gusto for payroll. It's very easy to use. On Gusto each employee has access to previous pay stubs and other useful information. Gusto has a modern look and feel to it which is something we look for in apps.

Pros

Gusto is easy to use and very informative. They also have cool facts and rewards you can earn.

Cons

I honestly can't think of any cons. Gusto does everything we need it to.

### "Gusto is super clean and easy to use. Very positive user experience"

May 21, 2018

5.0

Ease of use, good reporting, clean interface, state reporting, automated W2s and 1099s.

Pros

I love how clean in the interface is. Onboarding and offboarding employees and contractors is quick and easy, and they have taken care of user experience at every step; for example in the positive tone it users with employee communications. Customer service has a very positive tone too. Lots of high EQ associates. It's the payroll service with heart, and it works beautifully.

Cons

With a couple of tweaks, Gusto would meet all of our HRIS small business needs. I really wish it had a better PTO function.

### "As an Employee, this was a seamless experience "

February 26, 2019

5.0

Pros

I used Gusto as an employee and found it to be user friendly and very feature rich. I loved being able to check everything from remaining sick days to signing up for, and tracking my benefits. You are able to handle a lot of the HR details yourself instead of having to find a manager to do certain things for you which, for a small, growing company is invaluable! I also love that it sent me automatic messages when my paycheck arrived each pay period.

Cons

Not very much negative I can say- It truly was a seamless experience on my end

### "I enjoy Gusto's employee profiles that make it easy for me to see everything I need! "

March 6, 2018

5.0

Pros

I enjoy the software's user experience as it is easy to find and collect the information I need regarding my paystubs, tax documents, etc. I also really love their fun emails!

Cons

I always have to switch back and forth between my contractor and employee profile. Probably because I was a contractor first.

Gusto made it very easy to have a lot of features when you're a small company.

### "Gusto Review"

December 22, 2021

5.0

Pros

Gusto is a seamless payroll management system which I used briefly over a 6 month period. From the user end perspective it offers a simple as easy way for you to view your pay stubs. You also get notifications about when you will get paid. In addition, the GUI is seamless and intuitive, you can easily find

Cons

If you are looking for an extensive payroll management system, this is not the best software as the features are limited. It also does not have a dashboard which is a common feature in many other software solution systems.

Gusto has been great for time tracking and ease of use.

Pros

### "Gusto payroll service is great"

January 15, 2019

5.0

Gusto is a great, easy to use payroll service and works really well for managing a lot of part-time employees.

Pros

I like that the software is accessible anywhere because it's all online and the cycle studio I work at part-time has never had any problem- payments are always on time!

Cons

The only complaint is that direct deposits into accounts show up under the name "Gusto" rather than the name of the company.

### "I've used Gusto for the past four years."

May 17, 2018

5.0

Pros

I absolutely adore Gusto. It's intuitive, aesthetically beautiful, and their customer service is amazing. I also like that you can login even after you're done with that company, to see your paystubs and benefits!

Cons

The phone number isn't super easy to find, and I wish they explained a little more about COBRA health insurance/or even next steps for after you leave the company!

### "Such a relief for payroll"

June 16, 2020

5.0

We are a low-turnover shop so mostly this is about getting employees paid, able to record time off, manage benefits and do all that without hassle or errors. Gusto delivers on that.

Pros

It's so simple, especially compared with hiring a payroll company like Paychex. Managing benefits is easy, reports are easy, set up is easy. For a small shop like ours, it's given us a huge reduction in headaches and hassle.

Cons

Base price is a little high, especially with time tracking and benefits added, but its still not even close to what we were paying for a full-fledged payroll company

### "The sports car of payroll companies"

October 16, 2018

5.0

Gusto has saved us time and energy specifically in the payroll tax department. It has been a solid move that will continue to pay dividends.

Pros

Love the attention to detail and consistent communication from Gusto.

Cons

Don't like the fact that hours for employees must be manually converted from minute format to decimal format every week.
