Spotsaas Editor’s POV

Paycor offers payroll processing, employee onboarding, time tracking, and benefits administration in a single platform. The self-service employee app and customizable dashboards are functional features that appeal to medium-sized businesses and nonprofits. Setup typically takes 2–4 weeks depending on your data complexity and whether you're migrating from another ...Read more

Paycor pros and cons

  • Covers payroll, recruiting, onboarding, performance management, and benefits administration in one platform.

"Paycor Is A Great Resource"

What do you like best about Paycor? I like that I do not have to know everything about payroll laws. Paycor does that for me and advises me along the way. I like the prerecorded and ongoing training that is available What do you dislike about Paycor? Have not found anything yet that I dislike. What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you? Paycor is helping us to grow and provide more benefits for our employees.

No service after onboarding

The onboarding team is dedicated and helpful. After onboarding there is no account manager, no point of contact. The customer service team does not seem knowledgeable (each CSR seems to provide a different solution), and follow up is almost non existent. The software is okay, but working through an issue is nearly impossible due to the lack of service.

This is the worst payroll provider I've…

This is the worst payroll provider I've dealt with in my career of over 30 years. I've been trying to change some services for two months, but have gotten nowhere despite multiple, lengthy phone calls and emails. I continue to be charged for services I've cancelled. I'm stuck in the short-term because if I block Paycor from ACH access to our bank account, it means I can't pay our employees either. If you are considering Paycor as a payroll provider, I highly encourage you to choose any ...

Helpful support team

PROS: The software is so simple and easy to use and customize according to what our team needs. If we do have concerns, the customer service team is always on hand to help us resolve it. CONS: It would be great if all information linked to our employees' status changes also get updated automatically.

Giving Paycor some love

PROS: Paycor allows us to use one platform for our four NGOs' staff needs including employee information, timekeeping, payroll, reporting, and ACA filing. CONS: A tool that enables employees to interact with each other would be pretty awesome.

Horrible

Horrible, terrible, no good company. The customer service can't be any worse. Constantly changing employees, don't respond to requests for assitance. Raising prices constantly.
