Simple but lacks convenient functions

Recommendations to others considering the product: Great for simple payroll processing but if you are looking for an all in one HRIS software I suggest looking at other ...

If I Had Only Switched Sooner . . .

What do you like best? I love the accuracy of my payrolls, the helpfulness of my payroll specialist, and the ease it has been to get our checks cut. I run a seasonal business without about 600-700 employees, and I had literally been in tears trying to run payroll with the payroll company I had before Heartland, which happens to be one of the largest payroll companies in the U.S. What do you dislike? I honestly can't think of anything that I dislike. When the sales rep that I had at ...

Customer Service is a dream

What do you like best? I can only speak for the payroll specialist I have worked with, Priscilla Proch. She is ALWAYS kind, which is KEY, however she is also extremely informative and lovely to work with. An asset to the company on all levels. What do you dislike? Recently when I have entered payroll and then navigate off the page, some of the data has been lost, however I have fixed that by periodically navigating off the page to save so I don't time out, even though the time I am ...

Angelia Van Swearingen

What do you like best? In this day and age we lack the personal touch way too often. That is why I recommend Heartland to everyone! Angelia has been my specialist at the last 3 Jobs I have run.

When Angelia goes on vacation (she spoils me lol) Recommendations to others considering the product: Absolutely wonderful to work with! What problems are you solving with the ...
