Pros

I love that it allows employees the ability to access and change their profiles and be responsible for their timecards.
I love how user friendly this product is for everyone. Everything is very self explanatory and if you have any questions, customer service is very helpful and patient.
Overall our rapidly growing business was due for a professional, easy, and affordable tool to manager payroll, benefits, HR related things, etc. and this was perfect.

Pros

Seamless Integration with our ERP - Infinite Visions has been a big labor saver. The ease of the use of the product for end users is pretty good, with a modern, well designed UI.
I like that it is very user friendly and the customer service agents are always there to help.
Being able to easily see my entire pay period without searching for it is fantastic. I love being able to see how many hours I have so far in the period.

Cons

We have been very frustrated with our implementation and ongoing service. They push to go live in a very short amount of time but did a terrible job of working to make sure the set up was right.
I have had several daily timecards messed up because of this.
When researching Paycom the only negative review I seemed to come across was difficulty with the software.

Cons

When you call to voice a terrible experience you are pretty much told too bad and they do nothing to make it right for the client.
I also dislike that the offline feature has never seemed to work. If a server is down and it redirects you to the offline version, those punches don't always seem to stick.
In order to change any punches, you have to submit a ticket, which is frustrating because you can't edit it yourself.

Paycom: Above Average Time Management

Reviewed 6 years ago

Paycom is better than some alternatives to log hours (such as Paychex and UltiPro), but it’s not a perfect system. However, it is aesthetically pleasing, and the fact that it is easy to update is a definite plus.

Pros

Paycom has an easy-to-use mobile app? and is very easy to understand. It also keeps all of my tax documents in one place, which is very convenient.

Cons

Paycom makes me change my password once every few weeks, which is frustrating. Its auto-populating features also leave something to be desired.

Vendor response

Jon, we appreciate your feedback and will share it with our product team. We¿re glad you like the mobile app! It¿s important to note that our clients have the ability to determine the password update frequency for their users.  Thanks again for your feedback as it drives us towards continuous improvement.

Pros

There was a time when we had to use this to log in and out everyday to track our hours, and it was easy enough to keep track of that plus manage our paystubs.

Cons

While I appreciated the security measures, having to enter your pin AND password each time you logged in became slightly annoying.

Pros

The nonprofit I work for started using Paycom a few years ago. It has been a while and so I can't remember what we used previously, but I'm a fan of having all my paystub info info in one place. Plus, it's easy to submit vacation day requests.

Cons

I'm not a fan of the Paycom sign-in process. I get why they do it, but it's kind of a pain. In addition to the usual user name and password request, the login process has several questions I have to answer each and every time.

best experience at any company so far

Reviewed 6 years ago

Highly recommend this platform! As a start-up we're using technology optimized across our digital stack and extremely pleased with the results Paycom gives me as an employee

Pros

-easy to navigate (HUGE plus) - if you've struggled with other benefits tools (used Kronos in the past) the UI is very easy to navigate, everything is placed in a very organized and neat layout -mobile app offered - pretty efficient and have used it when needing to work remote/request a sick day

Cons

-no real complaints - it does what I need and I've been very satisfied. security was a bit tedious when setting up, but I'd be concerned if it were too easy

Clocking in?

Reviewed 2 years ago

Overall, my experience with Paycom has been a good one. I can access it on my mobile device and, to me, that is so important because there are instances where you need to access your payroll information and being able to pull it up on your phone is a definite plus. I don't remember what we used before Paycom but I can definitely say that I like it better because there is must more information that is readily available

Pros

There are many wonderful features to this program. It is easy to see your upcoming paycheck or review past paychecks as well as other tax documents. It is also a very valuable feature being able to view benefits, available time off, time used, etc. I would say that I especially like the Community feature where employees can leave comments or kudos to their co-workers.

Cons

I think that the navigation could be a little easier. After using this program for some years now, I still have to search to find my paycheck. I don't know if it's just me but I think if I had to change anything, I would change the location of the current paycheck.

Paycom - Improving the Task of Running Payroll

Reviewed 4 years ago

Hard sales - it was not a comfortable sales process AT ALL. Lots of promises not all of which were fulfilled. Implementation team was great but I had to push really hard on some things that I knew must be there but my specialist didn't know about yet. BUT, we previously had a full time payroll manager and a part time recruiter, plus an HR generalist for our past system. Now we have one person doing all admin at about .75 FTE. We aren't maximizing the software but it's better than what we had before.

Pros

The employee self service feature and timecard management is fantastic. Their core philosophy is that employees enter, manage and approve their own time. There's a learning curve for sure, but ultimately - given my retail hourly workforce - this has been a huge sigh of relief over our prior timecard mgmt and the risk we had with managers entering employee time.

Cons

There are parts that are unnecessarily complicated - like the way that they have position mgmt set up, and how managers get access to open positions. The checklists and task management are also really complicated. There is no admin community or Special Interest Groups which is a huge miss. The peer sharing of best practices is something I miss very much.

Vendor response

Thank you, we are glad you are enjoying our software and the convenience of employees entering their own information! However, we would like to learn more about how we can improve your experience.

Paycom handles forms excellently

Reviewed a year ago

Paycom was the payroll service we used. They are trained to complete all the forms, calculations and procedures and do it correctly. The difficulty of the operation lies in taking on the heavy lifting of processing our salary so that I can focus on building my company. We transferred from ADP to Paycom and the decision was absolutely the right one. I wanted to be treated like I was local and not like...

Pros

I researched the qualities of ease of use, cost and being a proven provider, plus I have to tell you that Paycom delivers on all fronts for my small business. Payroll runs in just a few minutes and if anything goes wrong, my representative communicates quickly and efficiently to prevent anything from intercepting our employees' payroll accurately and on time. Paycom is a security and law focused kind of company, knowing this makes me feel comfortable that security is a priority, just like for our restaurant, it's important to them.

Cons

My rep discussed the readability of the reports with me at the beginning of 2017 and immediately my concerns were addressed and resolved. If you give Paycom good reviews, they fix the problem right away.

A good solution for the money

Reviewed 5 years ago

Overall we are very pleased with the scope and breadth of the system. We are finding that we are able to solve many HR challenges through this platform. And they are continually improving the product. Even in the last 10 months, some of the things that would have made to the "What do you like least about this software?" list have been resolved through new product releases.

Pros

We implemented Paycom after becoming frustrated with a much more expensive solution. We have been using it for about 10 months and are still amazed at how intuitive the software is. Our HR team has been able to go right into the system and begin using it with very little formal training which a plus when time is tight. But I would also recommend taking their webinar training when offered. I've picked...

Cons

We are still hopeful that Paycom will come out with a more robust API that will allow us to share employee data bi-directionally. For now, you can export data from Paycom to share across other software systems but you cannot write into Paycom. Everything needs to be manually imported.

Vendor response

Thank you for the review and feedback, Mary! We are thrilled that you are enjoying your Paycom experience! We will be sure to share your feedback regarding the API process with our product teams.
