Pros What is a standout feature of this software is how good the tech support team is! Have ran into a few problems which were fixed right away with tech support guiding you along the way. One of the best employee management software. Cons The progress log feature is enabled only when asked to the Paybooks support as it is hidden away. I keep not remembering where the option I want is. Better grouping of the software features or a search bar could really improve the already great software. Switched from [Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) Excel is not a payroll software, and does not provide reports and employee self service features.

The dashboard also keeps you ahead and helps to jump from one section to another. Cons The software has many places for improvement. Despites, it would be great if there as option to connect the bank account to the Paybooks account while signing in. This will help in easing the usage. Furthermore, the time taken to reflect changes which are made on one side could be reduced.

In your personal administration, you decide what is important. PayBook can be whatever you want, it can be the global monthly expenses of your car, or the terrible revelation of everything you ate thanks to UberEats. Cons Paybooks treats money issues as something personal and very private, to the point that the subject can become a taboo for many. Ironically many of us spend our lives obsessed with the search for money, not considering that financial transparency can help us make this search more effective.
