"Super easy to administer, full featured and cost effective!"
What do you like best about Guideline? Easy to administer. 401ks can be very time-consuming to administer, documents to sign, complex configuration, payroll adjustments, etc. Supprt in the rare cases it is needed is also great.

"Simple 401k Process"
What do you like best about Guideline? Being a small company, Guideline is a great solution to offer a 401k plan without large fees but still good funds for investment. We also like the portfolio suggestions based on a short questionnaire to determine risk and return. Guideline also logs into our payroll system to process contributions instead of us remembering to do so.
