Setup typically takes 2–4 weeks depending on your data complexity and whether you're migrating from another ...Read more

"Marketing Coordinator"

What do you like best about Paycor? Paycor is very user-friendly and efficient, from a manager’s standpoint. You are able to see exact times when employees punch in and out, but it also rounds times to the nearest quarter hour so you’re not trying to dissect minutes. What do you dislike about Paycor? It seems like there are a lot of clicks to get to frequently-used areas. The site could be laid out more efficiently. It is also updating constantly, which is good for it to continue running, ...

"Paycor Perform review "

What do you like best about Paycor? We can access the employee record from the pay data grid which really helps to check the earnings and deductions, figure out what might need to be adjusted, make the adjustment right in the pay data grid and recalculate. It is very easy to use and understand. The time and attendance is a great tool for tracking time off and scheduling different leaves for staff, and it's easy to make a change to the reason or day. Reporting is the best feature what I like ...

"Paycor review "

What do you like best about Paycor? I like having all of our employee data tracked and stored in one place rather than having to jump to multiple systems. What do you dislike about Paycor? Sometimes the system can be laggy and take longer than I’d expect data to load. I am still new to the program so I am not sure why this happens. What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you? We use it for storing all employee information, payroll, and benefits.

"Okay software"

What do you like best about Paycor? Barebones, simple software. Not really any bells and whistles but not a bad choice for a smaller business that doesn't need all the options enterprise HRIS software offers. What do you dislike about Paycor? Lack of features, kind of basic looking, not very personalized for company logo/culture Recommendations to others considering Paycor: Revamp the look, make it more customized to business, make it a little more user friendly What problems is Paycor ...
