Pros

“The system simplifies payroll processing, onboarding, benefits administration, and employee self-service, which saves a significant amount of administrative time. While it may have some limitations for larger or more complex organizations, it provides a strong user experience, reliable automation, and solid customer support for companies seeking an all-in-one HR and payroll platform.”

Patricia M.

Administrative Director

“I would love for us to be able to run all of our entities and EoR via Remote but due to some restrictions with us already using Gusto in the US this is not possible at the moment.”

Cons

“Reporting customization and advanced HR/payroll configurations were not as robust as larger enterprise systems.”

“The main drawback was limited flexibility for more complex payroll needs and increasing costs as features are added.”
RS

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

“Our company didn't feel like the Gusto platform could grow to host all of our HR needs, as well as desirables like Learning Management.”
EM

Erin M.

People Operations Specialist

Cons

“They cannot always offer full flexibility and for that reason we couldn't move an employee in NL. As the Remote pension wasn't flexible, so the employee would lose net salary.”
BC

Bart C.

Head of People and Culture

“Minor detail but remote did not integrate with our HR tool, so we had to use two HR softwares for internal and external employees.”
TH

Theresa H.

Executive Assistant

“Their pricing is a little wonky to me in hiring by teams of 15; versus a team price with different quantity sizes.”
