### "Exceptional Experience"

October 4, 2024

5.0

I have been with PrimePay for over 10 years. When I call in for help the same people are there to help me, its not a lot of new people. They answer my call and I don't get sent to a voicemail because they are too busy. When I make a mistake they are always able to help me fix it.

Pros

Their promptness and knowledgeable staff

Cons

there isn't anything I don't like about PrimePay.

### "Great despite the hold! "

October 15, 2024

4.0

Even though there are longer hold times (not terribly different from others companies) once you get a n agent they are very knowledgeable and get your question/issues addressed very fast!

Pros

Primepay offers a very simple way for those not professionally trained in payroll processing a way to submit and do it themselves.

Cons

There is quite a long hold time if there are questions or assistance needed.

### "feedback for improvement"

August 23, 2024

4.0

overall experience has been average-good.... i use their payroll and it's been pretty solid.... offer their compliance services like cobra.... i'm pretty sure i still offer erisa too.... use their fsa services too for a client

Pros

found out that the company is actually still private. i like that about primepay. i don't really like doing business with public companies because they tend to only care about the shareholders.

Cons

sometimes they don't get back to you.... give you incorrect information.... tell you that you need to do something that you ended up not needing to do and time ended up being wasted.... all areas for improvement as we all have those....

### "Thank You Prime Pay! I Can Breathe Now!"

September 29, 2024

4.0

Overall, my start was a bit choppy, but now that I know the system a little better, I feel like it makes my life much easier!

Pros

The price is very competitive, compared to ADP. The features are relatively the same and serve their purpose for my small business.

Cons

I don't think the tutorials are very intuitive. It's hard to find the answers I need for some of the issues I ran into. I pretty much had to figure some things out on my own.

Reason for choosing PrimePay

Smaller company and price fit my budget better. Plus my representative was more sincere.

### "PrimePay is Awesome!"

September 27, 2024

5.0

We are just getting started with PrimePay, so we don't have much time to give a full and honest review of all the services they offer. However, we have been very pleased with them so far.

Pros

All of the people I have interacted with so far, have been absolutely amazing! Every question answered, every issue resolved.

Cons

Nothing against PrimePay... I simply haven't had as much time as I would like to be able to focus on learning and utilizing the programs we are signed up for. But again, every time I have reached out for assistance, PrimePay has been quick to respond.

[isolved](https://www.capterra.com/p/164417/iSolved/)

Reason for choosing PrimePay

PrimePay offered the best options for the best price. While the other companies we looked into offered some similar products and services, they were more expensive and less user friendly.

### "User Friendly Payroll Process"

September 20, 2024

5.0

I have had a wonderful experience in using PrimePay to process my payroll needs.

Pros

Accessible and easy to navigate their portal. Customer service is among the best I have worked with, prompt response and provide not just answers but point you in the right direction as to where to find those answers.

Cons

Slight issues on how invoicing is broken down and tracking older invoices.

September 27, 2024

5.0

Excellent! I enjoy how friendly and knowledgeable everyone is.

Pros

The service. Every time I have a question or concern, I know that I can contact the PrimePay team. I get a speedy response, solution to the problem and friendly exchange. All of this via email!

Cons

I have not had an issue with PrimePay. Of course, I price cut would be nice.

### "Better Before"

September 10, 2024

5.0

I was preferred the initial procedure when I had \[sensitive content hidden\] contact info. and could call her for advise or issues. This year has been more challenging with a different person nearly every payday processing our payroll.

Pros

Comprehensive service, payroll, W/C, taxes ensure correct amounts are paid on time. Do NOT like that PTO accruals are different between the PrimePay and Swipeclock employee issues at times.

Cons

Not assigned a specific human representative that I can call to discuss issues.

### "Primepay - not my first choice"

September 9, 2024

2.0

It was a bit traumatic. Very hard to get hold of someone and using their 'ticketing' system was awful. They are just now (sept) answering emails from June! Tickets would get closed with zero action taken.

Pros

The gross to net calculation. The product is reasonably easy to use.

Cons

Customer support or lack thereof. Inaccurate earnings codes set up etc.

Long time customer with no complaints! I can't think of a time our payroll was delayed or incorrectly imputed. Infact, Highly recommend

Pros

Fast efficient payroll processing. We also use them for our Simple IRA Plan which really puts the burden on them for all the calculations.

Cons

No real complaints. They send out timely reminders for us to prepare time sheets, bonuses and such

### "Great experience"

September 10, 2024

5.0

Everything was smooth, easy and fast. I usually do hands off payroll, provide the required data, wew verify the numbers and get the summary right away.

Pros

Primepay is a straight forwad payroll company, the portal is very friendly and the there is always somebody to reach out for questions

Cons

Since I do hands off payroll, sometimes it takes sometime to get somebody through the phone. Although the wait time has improved a lot, it will take over 10 minutes to talk to a representative

### "Some good some bad"

September 5, 2024

5.0

The people that I talk to on the phone are extremely nice and very helpful. I do not blame them for the year-end debacle that blame goes squarely to management. Supposedly, management has solved last year's year-end problems. ...I am waiting with bated breath...

Pros

Very timely call backs for payroll after the year-end debacle.

Cons

Their year-end debacle was horrible. I would call in for payroll at 9:30 to 10:00 am but would not get a call back until mid to late afternoon. This is a problem for me because I only work part-time, and they would sometimes call when I was ready to leave.

Lately, my experience with PrimePay has been great.
