Improvements in progress
What do you like best? It is valuable to have access to deeper data and to be able to make adjustments on our own instead of being totally reliant on an agent. What do you dislike? Many of these features do not seem to be automatic and despite numerous requests for assistance or the adding of these features via the emails received, no action has been taken without me asking our payroll agent specifically. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have ...

Paychex Flex is very user friendly but the Benefits and HRO portals need improvement
What do you like best? I love the Payroll and People portals. Very easy to access and payroll uploads are swift. What do you dislike? HRO needs alot of improvement and Benefit did not work at all for my company. The Benefit portal was not easy to use by employees. HRO is hard to access for non-admin supervisors. We tend to find that HR is utilizing it the most because it is not user /visually friendly for supervisors. What business problems are you solving with the product? What ...

Would recommend to anyone..
What do you like best? Honestly , there's not much I don't like about it. But my absolute favorite thing is the ease of use. It's so user friendly and easy to navigate, even for beginners. What do you dislike? I use the desktop version because the app is often buggy or slow to respond. Also, the time and attendance app is awful. Always has connection errors, and GPS location issues. Recommendations to others considering the product If you prefer an app based program, flex is a ...

Paychex is Great!
What do you like best? The best thing about Paychex is the flexibility. We can submit payroll early, we can immediately see what our cash requirements are, and I can reprint pay stubs and W-2s for an employee if need be. Also, I have found the customer service reps to be extremely helpful and responsive. I like the fact that when I call, I'm connected to my dedicated representative without having to enter a phone extension. What do you dislike? I dislike that the input and information ...
