I love Gusto
Gusto makes time tracking and payroll seamless, easy, and fast. I used to spend over an hour just on transferring hours worked from the time tracking system to the payroll system. Now payroll takes me 15 minutes or less, including reviewing & approving time, adding expense reimbursements, and submitting payroll. I love Gusto!

Gusto is super user friendly
Gusto is super user friendly, very easy to follow and move through payrolls. They handle all of the tax reporting, quarterly and annually. It's been a great experience since we started using Gusto a few years ago.

User-friendly is a tame description
User-friendly is a mild term when describing this platform. It holds your hand. It talks to you. It tells you in no uncertain terms what to do next and when to do it. Processing payroll is so breezy, you have to make an effort to mess it up.

Overall good with a few minor flaws
User interface is clean, easy to access and understand. In setting up our organizational benefits, employees were responsive and easy to reach. But while everything has gone smoothly with previous organizations I've worked with that used Gusto, things were confusing in setting up a fully new organization because of our structure as a "fiscally sponsored program". And our health benefits were misassigned somehow, causing a bit of a headache.

Gusto is a great payroll…
Gusto is a great payroll software/platform. It is easy to use. Reports and returns are easy to run, locate and print for clients. The payroll process is simplified with Gusto. Payroll taxes are deducted per pay period instead of in large monthly or quarterly lump sums for clients, making it easier for clients to manage their cash flow. As an accountant, I recommend Gusto for any business, but especially small to medium-sized businesses. The staff at Gusto are great to work with and are very ...
