Spotsaas Editor’s POV

Paychex Flex works best for small to mid-size businesses that need payroll processing, tax filing, and basic HR in one system. Before shortlisting, verify that the platform supports your state's specific tax requirements and any custom payroll rules your business uses—tax compliance varies significantly by location. Check whether the mobile app meets your needs ...Read more

Paychex Flex Easy & Convenient

What do you like best? As a small business owner, I have many responsibilities and Paychex Flex allows me to enter weekly payroll quickly and easily. What do you dislike? When I needed to add a garnishment and associated fees to the system, I was not able to complete the setup on my own, but had to call to get it set up. It would be nice to be able to facilitate adding these fields on my own. Recommendations to others considering the product: I highly recommend Paychex Flex ...

User Friendly

What do you like best? It is very easy to maneuver the entire site. There are a couple of us that have access and it is very easy for us to have multiple users enter information without confusion. What do you dislike? Occasionally there are questions and a more efficient online Q & A would be better than having to call our help person. Don't get me wrong she's great. But sometimes she is busy and we have to wait for her to return our call. Recommendations to others considering ...

I have been assigned my own payroll specialist that is there for me when I need additional help. Our company has purchased additional companies that I have been moving to Paychex. The system is ...
