Paychex PEO Likes & Dislikes

Like

I like that their software for processing payroll is very accurate and in link to the company needs. This is very essential because we use an excel spreadsheet and it is very easy to just upload the different amounts and groups in which salaries are paid according to their classes. We have a very complex and difficult payroll and Paychex have been a key element at not only processing but acquiring reports such as the Labor Distribution. Also that our employees has access to their pay stubs, taxes documents and other important information.

Payroll was outdated. If you have a simple payroll, it's perfect. Struggled with a more complex payroll.
