The ability to set goals is Paylocity's strongest suit. It helps the user stay focused and accountable while also providing insight into the priorities of employees and how those priorities relate to the overall goals of the business.
Pros
I like how user-friendly the system is and how readily available the data about employees is for study. Another positive is that it may be customized to become your company's complete human resources and payroll solution.
Cons
Customer service has been frustrating and useless in the past, but we've now built constructive partnerships and are seeing better results as a result. The reporting is similarly mediocre but serves its purpose.

Overall, Paylocity is one of the better HRIS systems I've worked with. Payroll is simpler while still being secure and my employees also seem to engage well with the program.
Pros
Paylocity has allowed us to customize a lot about our company site/setup. I spend most of my time in the Onboarding side of things and being able to customize the onboarding tasks is really helpful.
When it comes to the Employee's side of Paylocity, it is relatively straightforward and user-friendly. The site is easy to navigate and when needed, the support team is very friendly and usually quick to respond.
Cons
There is definitely room for improvement within Paylocity. It seems like a lot of functions, features, and even naming conventions are a bit more complicated than they need to be. In the onboarding side, setting up onboarding event packets, tasks, or templates is a TOTAL PAIN. The process is cumbersome and you can't delete certain things once they're created. The builder for customizing onboarding tasks 100% needs some help and could be a lot more user friendly if Paylocity were to copy a builder-setup like SurveyMonkey.

It is a very reliable system to keep up with employees schedules and it also gives us our paystubs. We can request our time off days as well.
Pros
Clocking in electronically. It is mostly very reliable and punctual.
Cons
On a very rare occasion it may not clock me in even though I went through the process and I was thinking that I did everything I know!

Paylocity is used to help me track my payments, timeshifts, and communication. I feel that it connects my coworkers in receiving important information.
Pros
Ease of use, organized, ability to review networking and personal information in one. I like that it is connected to a time clock allowing me to view and estimate my checks. I like the communication that I am able to view between communities and coworkers.
Cons
Frequently having to change password. I dislike the lack of notifications/guides of when something is required. I dislike the ability to filter messages to my specific community, rather than all.

Payroll and HR tools made easy
Reviewed on 17/06/2024
Pros
Paylocity makes all of our scheduling super easy. We have the ability to track all employee documentation. The learning portion is great as well since we can include our learning tools and create tests for understanding. Having a central place for the on-boarding process also makes it easy when hiring new associates. The entire platform is very user friendly and by far one of the best I have used.
Cons
There is nothing that I can say I disliked about the platform.

Overall, we are very pleased with Paylocity. We've tried all the big ones (ADP, Paychex, etc) but have never had great experiences with those companies. Paylocity takes care of our every payroll need and reports tax information to the government accurately and timely on our behalf.
Pros
Paylocity makes processing payroll easy. I process payroll for 6 entities and Paylocity makes this an easy task by allowing data imports from POS systems for some locations and time & labor tracking within Paylocity for others. Additionally, all onboarding is done within Paylocity so no need for paperwork or saving employee legal documents outside of Paylocity.
Cons
Sometime customer service can be hard to reach for questions but they do eventually get back to you with resources.

Great experience. Used it for a short time and never had an issue with it. Everything ran smoothly. Clocking in and out was easy. Finding your pay stubs was a breeze. Great app
Pros
It is a simple app. Very easy to use and does what you need it to do. Never really had any complaints with it to be honest.
Cons
I can't really think of anything. Maybe just the fact that it is a lesser known app so it is not as widely used as others and therefore may have less attention shown towards updates and such.

My overall experience with Paylocity has been really positive. It’s user-friendly, making it easy to track my time cards and access pay stubs. The automation features save me a lot of time, and the reporting tools help me ensure everything is accurate.
Pros
As an employee, I find Paylocity super easy for handling time cards and checking pay stubs. Clocking in and out is quick, and I can easily review my hours to make sure everything looks right before payday. I also like how I can access my pay stubs right from the app—no more waiting or asking someone for copies. It’s straightforward and makes keeping track of my hours and pay really convenient.
Cons
There are occasional technical issues, like slow load times or glitches during peak hours, which can be frustrating when trying to access important information or lag time when clocking in and out.

While working as a manager for a local non-profit, we transitioned from the old ways of clocking in, bulletin posts, and training courses, by merging all of those things and more into the paylocity app, and it was exactly what we needed.
Pros
How intergrated everything was from clocking in, to company events, and the learning/ training courses.
Cons
Nothing it wrapped up everything we needed into one app.

Great app, very good for time and pay management. Offers lots of perks that would benefit any organization that needs to manage its' employees.
Pros
Paylocity is so easy to use. Our company uses it to manage our punches, time off, and overtime. The app is the absolute best and makes for quick punches as needed during our shifts. I also like how easy it is to make changes to incorrect punches.
Cons
Sometimes the app glitches, and it has to be refreshed in order to work. The website lags just a little bit as well.

Employee Self-Service Payroll
Reviewed on 25/04/2024
Pros
What could be more convenient for employees to have a software that is "Self-Service Payroll". Monitor your own paycheck, download W2 and tax forms during tax season, look for your timesheet, request time-off. I like the peer management where they greet employees' birthday or years of service for the company. I also like that you can use it in Mobile App.
Cons
I least like the always request of changing password. I know it's for security purposes.
