HR Specialist Construction ### "eBacon Review" 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 5/10 March 26, 2026 Overall experience is that it's a good system, but you waste a lot of time because of all the manual entering that has to be done. Pros The Pros of using eBacon is that it is easy to use when you figure it out. I had so many issues in the beginning because I have never done certified payroll like this. Cons The Cons of eBacon is that the system to me feels very dated. I have to manually enter a lot of parts from a paystub onto the system.

Response from Vendor April 9, 2026 Thanks for your feedback—we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad to hear that you found the system easy to use once you got familiar with it. We understand that getting started with certified payroll, especially in a new system, can feel overwhelming at first. That’s something we’re always working to improve through onboarding and support. eBacon is designed to reduce manual data entry by integrating payroll data directly, so teams don’t have to re-enter information from paystubs. In many cases, when users experience manual steps, it’s often related to how the system was initially configured and which features are being used. We’re continuously improving the platform to make certified payroll faster and more automated, and feedback like this plays an important role in that process. KI Kenneth i.

CS Colleen S. Controller Construction ### "eBacon" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 August 12, 2021 eBacon has been a great addition to our team in so many ways. The personal touch they offer in caring for us as a customer helps us know that all issues will be resolved in a quick, simple and personal way. After being with large payroll companies it was a very welcome experience to know who I was talking to and being able to reach exactly who I needed in a very timely way. We have also experienced much education in regards to taxes and especially the new tax laws that emerged during the pandemic. The value of that was immeasurable. Pros eBacon filled a void in the payroll industry that we had not experienced previously. Our previous payroll company attempted to help with the certified payroll reporting process but it was very cumbersome and did not address wage determinations. We were amazed to find out that there was a player in the payroll world that worked hard to fill that void. The services they offered exceeded our expectations in the construction industry. It saved so much administrative time in our office and gave us more confidence that we were paying our employees correctly. Cons There have been adjustments to various reporting and processes that have needed to be made along the way but eBacon has been very available and anxious to take care of any issues that we had. We have never felt abandoned in any of our issues. As much as we would like everything to work perfectly all the time, that really probably isn't realistic, and I am glad we were working with a company that is ready and anxious to take care of any issues.

KM Kelly M. Project Administrator Construction ### "Quality and Consistency Improving" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 August 10, 2021 I believe the eBacon team strives to provide a quality product, and is making strides in the improvement of their product. Pros The major selling point of eBacon for me is the ability to print weekly certified payroll reports out of the application. The ease of generating and printing California Training Fund invoices from the application is also a huge time saver. The overall reliability of the software is good. Cons Though vastly improved from my early experience with the application, eBacon still struggles with making corrections/restitution payments when dealing with some of the more infrequent requirements for certified payroll. Sometimes corrections require more attempts than seem necessary.

COO Construction ### "Game changer" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 March 9, 2021 I was introduced to Ebacon after meeting with a representative of a large standard payroll processing company. I described my wish list of what I needed help with. Basic Payroll wasn’t the cause of my stress. It was prevailing wage reporting and the significant time, effort, headaches and frustration that each incremental job would bring. That person told me their current company couldn’t help with any of those issues but returned months later now working with ebacon. They were able to provide my entire wish list as well as additional benefits I hadn’t yet realized would significantly benefit my company. Pros The ebacon team have taken so much of the anxiety away from prevailing wage projects for our company. Their payroll system has been a significant improvement for minimizing payroll errors which seriously improves morale. They have proven to be an invaluable resource for digging through some complex reporting requirements and giving clear direction backed with legal precedent. We would pay a significant amount of money to retain a team with this level of expertise in-house. I am a big fan of their responsiveness and their demonstrated ability to understand what my company needs and deliver solutions specific to those needs. Ebacon is a great partner for our company. Cons More tutorials, videos or a more dynamic how to functionality would be nice. Reasons for choosing eBacon Our company has 60+ franchise operations in three countries. We meet frequently to discuss ways to improve our business. The majority of our owners have significant prevailing wage reporting requirements. No one had found a solution other than “throwing bodies at it” and paying the significant payroll cost to properly document and accurately report to the various entities many with their own unique (and often convoluted) reporting systems. Ebacon has provided a way to offload that burden with increased confidence. Rather than avoiding or at least facing with great apprehension new opportunities for municipal contracts, we are able to set up and report these jobs with very minimal effort.

I appreciate that effort and excited to see it come to fruition. Pros What we needed most is a way to streamline the process of paperwork required by subcontractors AND submitting electronic certified payroll reports. Cons Some of the assignments were a little confusing at first but the more I work in the software it is becoming more obvious. There have been a lot of quirks along the way but we're getting it all worked out.
