### "Intuitive and User Friendly"

November 11, 2025

4.0

I have had good experience with Paylocity services for our payroll and TPA services for our benefits.

Pros

It's very user friendly and easy to navigate. I love that it's very flexible and the interface is simplified.

Cons

The accrual rollover is difficult when it's tied to check dates, not calendar dates. This requires manual correction to time off buckets around year end into the new year each year.

### "Best for Payroll"

September 25, 2025

4.0

Overall, I would say my experience with the Payroll feature within the platform has been amazing!!!!

Pros

Easiest payroll processing platform I have worked with! It is very easy to configure upload files if working with an outside Time & Attendance platform and the interface is very intuitive.

Cons

Sometimes if you don't use the full suite of Paylocity products it can be challenging to get clear answers on certain issues.

### "User-Friendly Platform with Minor Syncing Issues"

September 25, 2025

4.0

Overall, Paylocity has been a solid platform that helps streamline payroll and HR functions. While there are some syncing challenges between modules, the ease of use and functionality of the system outweigh the drawbacks, making it a valuable tool for our organization.

Pros

The user interface is clean and intuitive, which makes it easy for employees and administrators to navigate and complete tasks quickly.

Cons

There can be occasional issues with HR data not syncing properly with the time and labor data, which sometimes creates extra steps to reconcile.

### "Great experience all around"

November 6, 2025

5.0

Overall great. I would recommend it for smaller - mid sized companies for sure. I have now used it in 2 different companies.

Pros

It is user friendly on both the employer and employee side. The customer service is great, responsive and knowledgeable.

Cons

It is a little confusing to navigate PEAK to make sure you are searching for the right key word. Sometimes I may be using a different word and not sure how to keep looking.

I would highly recommend Paylocity to anyone looking for Payroll online system, it's been such a help getting thru payroll.

Pros

I like the support that calling the service line gets you, everyone is super helpful and want to help you resolve issues.

Sometimes it can take a while for any tickets to get resolved, up to a month in some cases which is stressful if it's time sensitive.

### "Super great payroll system!"

November 20, 2025

5.0

We transitioned to Paylocity 5 months ago. The transition team was great! Now that the whole company is trained and using Paylocity regularly, we couldn't be happier with the day-to-day processes.

Pros

The system is super easy to use. We have several aspects, from website and mobile app, to time clock kiosks for employees to use.

Cons

It took some time to get everything set up to our specifications, but now that we are up and going, we are very happy with the options.

### "Intuitive for newbies!"

October 10, 2025

4.0

So far, I've had an overall positive experience with Paylocity as well as interactions with our representatives.

Pros

Being a newer customer to Paylocity, I find it very intuitive, and that's before taking any tutorials.

Cons

Finding articles in the knowledgebase could be easier. I sometimes feel that key words are not recognized easily.

### "Okay-ish, but Still a Miss"

October 9, 2025

2.0

Pros

Our dedicated support team is great: friendly and professional. We also appreciate the weekly calls with our team to review any open issues.

Cons

The system can't accommodate our needs, especially on the benefits side. We use Bswift as an alternative, but again, there are definite limitations and therefore have to use a third platform to house one of our benefit plans.

### "Payroll Manager "

September 25, 2025

5.0

Overall, my experience with Paylocity has been positive. The platform is user-friendly, regularly updated, and keeps up with evolving regulations, which gives me confidence that we’re staying compliant. I also appreciate the variety of features available

Pros

Paylocity consistently updates the platform and stays ahead of new regulations. customer service is generally responsive, and the platform continues to improve.

Cons

One downside is that account managers tend to change frequently, often due to promotions or internal transfers

### "Payroll Accountant Review"

February 12, 2026

4.0

Awesome, it helps a lot to do payroll this way, i can centralize tasks of payroll on me, that previously were distributed along various team members, and i dont feel the extra pressure of this.

Pros

The intuition of the app and the automatation, also, for my company it was a big plus the value for money due to the fact that our previous payroll provider was a lot more expensive.

Cons

Is a little inflexible on some things, for example, on the taxes section for each employee, if you want to withhold an additional amount it only is possible on flat amounts, not on percentages

5.0

It has been alright. I think the new updates will create a better experience for employees. There are many things that could be automatic.

Pros

It is very user friendly. It is easy for employees and admins. I like that it you can use many of the modules on their mobile devices.

Cons

The directions aren't always easy to understand. I think more things to be automatic like other HRIS.

### "Paylocity: All-in-One HR and Payroll System That Works"

May 12, 2025

5.0

Overall Paylocity has had a positive experience, now that I know how to navigate around the website and the app I can find my check stubs easily, I can how much available leave I have, if I need to request time off, etc.

Pros

Paylocity is simple to use to see my check stubs, make a time off requests and even change my benefits for insurance.

Cons

In the beginning I had to navigate the website to learn where to see my time off requests and where to find my check stubs.. I wouldn't say it's 100 percent user friendly, but with time and navigation it is understandable..

### "Decent software, lacking customer service"

May 1, 2025

3.0

It was good in the beginning (8 years ago), but the extreme growth they have experienced has caused major customer service issues for clients. Lots of mistakes, missed communications, and having to repeat things to them over and over. Seems like they are trying to address this but it's still not great.

Pros

Good employee experience. Easy to navigate. Continual enhancements to stay current with competition.

Cons

Poor customer service from an administrator's standpoint. No ability to talk directly with various departments (ie. Tax, Reporting, etc.) which leads to way too much "pass the message along" and lots of wasted time. "Dedicated" customer service teams get changed on the client constantly, so there is no way to build a relationship. Slow to make needed software changes when issues are found.

### "think twice"

April 18, 2026

2.0

Been using it for months now. The onboarding experience was not good. Poor communication. they did not do the setup correctly or timely.

Pros

The price is good. When i have called, I get someone who can answer my questions. The mobile app gives plenty of information, so that is nice

Cons

It is one of the most convoluted, confusing payroll programs i have ever seen. And have been involved with payroll systems since the mid 1980's. The user interface makes no sense what-so-ever. The online help , doesn't help. Th time and attendance is pretty bad. No really data validation. very hard to to integrate the timesheet with payroll. two different people were involved, and they still did not set up the configuration correctly. The reporting system is...very unusual.

Our organization has used Paylocity for years with great success. Our employees like using the services Paylocity provides.

Pros

September 25, 2025

4.0

Okay. I feel like they do a lot to be flashy but nothing to actually support people. I've had calls were the people don't sound like they want to help you.

Pros

Features and ease of use. I love the community page. I don't know a lot of systems that have this. Also, love the layout.

Cons

Customer service. You never know if you will get someone helpful. I needed support with an item and the response was oh it will cost you a couple of thousand for us to do it, you should call a tax advisor. Which ultimately we went through Paylocity.

September 25, 2025

Pros

I have worked with other payroll platforms in the past and Paylocity exceeds other companies in customer support, prompt communication, features, and flexibility in payment processing. Great value for the money!

Cons

There really isn't anything I dislike about Paylocity. It just took me a while to get used to a new system.

### "Simple and Reliable Payroll Portal"

July 30, 2026

5.0

I used Paylocity mainly to view and download my pay stubs. It was reliable, easy to access, and made it convenient to keep track of my payroll records without needing to contact HR. Overall, it provided a smooth experience for routine payroll needs.

Pros

Paylocity made it easy to access my pay stubs and payroll information whenever I needed it. The interface is straightforward, and I could quickly find recent and past pay records.

Cons

Some sections can take a little time to navigate if you're looking for less commonly used features. For basic payroll access, though, it worked well.

### "Fair Enough"

September 26, 2025

4.0

Pretty good. Those that are willing to help make it worth while. I haven’t had any issues with employees getting paid.

Pros

Monthly cost and fees. Sales team is great. No issues with payroll, online features seem to be useful.

Cons

Service help with account such as payroll and overall functions of the Paylocity software. Not user friendly at all. When I email service and ask for help on a task, I get very vague responses or a referred to the “help” section. No, I should be walked through the task.

### "OK Could be better"

June 23, 2025

3.0

Okay, it works well, but it can be challenging to navigate where items are located in the software. I appreciate that you can customize and create your own training.

Pros

It works for many HR functions and tracks employee times, items, and reviews. The basic timekeeping does its job well.

Cons

They told us that it could alert employees when it was time to take a lunch break based on when they clock in, but in reality, it does not do this.

### "Good Service Help"

November 20, 2025

3.0

Overall, not bad. For an enterprise system it works well. Like any system, bad data or bad systems architecture will set you up for failure. To get the most from the software, invest the time to get it right.

Pros

Customer Support is generally very reliable! You can also customize a handful of fields for ease of use.

Cons

The system is very payroll or finance oriented, and the data is structured in a way that's not useful for simple tracking. Customizations are available, but stored in odd places. Each "module" of the system does not interact the way I would prefer.

Current usage of the system work like a charm and meets our current needs. When i have reached out for technical support i have received prompt, professional assistance with friendly and helpful reps.

Pros

Customer support makes communication and learning easy. Customer support reps are professional and friendly.

Cons

Only thing i can say is that I wish i had time to learn more about the system. I am confident there is much more available to our company's advantage.
