"Set it and forget it! Works like a charm. No fuss."

What do you like best about Guideline? It just works! You can seriously set it and forget it. I never thought I'd compare my 401(k) provider to a slow cooker, but it's true. It works for all of my employees, does what it needs to do, has a sleek, easy user interface, and I don't have to bother with it ever!

"Very Intuitive!"

What do you like best about Guideline? Guideline takes very dense material, and makes it very simple. While onboarding, I received many resources to help my team set up with Guideline. As an administrator AND user, it is simple to use and understand everything about our 401k program.

"So Easy I Don't Have to Think About It"

What do you like best about Guideline? Guideline is so easy I almost never have to think about it. It took very little time to set up, and there is almost nothing I have to do on an ongoing basis. It has a great integration with Gusto, so employees can easily onboard manage their own accounts with no work on my part. The fees are very low and reasonable.
