Pros and Cons	Affordable solution for small to medium-sized businesses offering essential payroll and accounting features. Intuitive and user-friendly interface suitable for non-accountants and beginners. Integrates seamlessly with other Wave apps for invoicing, expense tracking, and accounting. Offers automation for recurring invoices, payroll processing, and tax form generation. Customer service is slow and frequently unresponsive, making issue resolution time-consuming. Limited customization for non-US/Canada financial regulations, creating difficulties for international users.	Simplifies payroll processing and tax compliance, making it user-friendly even for non-experts. Offers robust integrations with platforms like QuickBooks Online and other accounting systems. Excellent customer support that is responsive, timely, and efficient in resolving issues. Comprehensive features for businesses, including onboarding, benefits management, retirement plans, and compliance support. Occasional reports of errors in support communication or inconsistencies in handling complex account issues. Some users find the transition from alternative payroll providers to Gusto challenging without adequate guidance.
