"Affordable 401k management that is easy to use"

What do you like best about Guideline? Guideline is very user oriented and easy to use. As an administrator the business side is simple and as a participant I was able to quickly make edits to my contributions, allocations, etc. Their website is simple and user friendly.

"No brainer for a small business"

What do you like best about Guideline? We were unsure of how to offer a 401k to our employees given that benefits providers either did not support our small size or were woefully expensive. Guideline was the answer - very reasonably priced, full-featured, and capable of administering a Safe Harbor 401k. I'm also a fan of their platform UX as a benefit receiver and administrator; sleek and easy to configure.
