"Customer Service has fallen off"

What do you like best about Paycor? Paycor is easy to use and a good product for small companies. What do you dislike about Paycor? The customer service is lacking. They've fallen off big time from where they were just a few years ago. What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you? If you're 500 employees and below with operations in only one country Paycor can do the trick.

"Good system, but can be hard to navigate/customize"

What do you like best about Paycor? System is fairly easy to do the most basic of things you need - changes to employees, profiles, timecards, etc. It's easy to navigate the basic menus and functions. Payroll is easy to run, time is easy to input. I like the extent of reports available (when they work). The onboarding of new employees is so simple and seamless and it's super easy to change user status and make updates to employees positions, time, pay, etc. What do you dislike about ...

They are absolutely awful

They are absolutely awful. Once you become a customer, you will never be able to talk to a rep again. I am 10 days away from my legal obligation to deliver W2's to my employees and I can't get an answer that they are working on them. Worst experience in customer care with any company ever and they had the nerve to up our rate 3 times in 2022. These were big rate hikes too. I am shocked they are still in business.

Customer service is nonexistent

Customer service is nonexistent. Unable to reach by phone. Received W2, which showed no fed taxes being paid. We have had numerous issues with no customer support. We will be looking for another payroll service.

Bring your customer service back

I worked with Paycor at my previous employer and LOVED it. Then Covid happened and all hell broke lose and their customer service never recovered. They are still working from home, which is why I think it is SOOO bad. I put in support tickets, and NO ONE ever answers them. If I call, I can sometimes get help, but the knowledge is limited. I usually hear them typing in my question to someone else and waiting for the answer. Why can't I just talk to that person. Anyway - the ease of use is SO ...

"Agree with all comments about quality of customer service."

What do you like best about Paycor? Not much. The things we liked were overshadowed by the frustration when assistance was needed, and none could be found. It's non-existent. When we were active clients, getting to the right person (every time someone was different) to get any questions answered was difficult. We are former clients, and I still need to update the information. Absolutely, no one to talk to. What do you dislike about Paycor? No support. When you call, you get a runaround. Get ...
