CEO

Cons

“More transparency on PDRs, we have a hard time tracking the status of the PDR submitted, we have to ask for updates every time, I wish there is a portal/dashboard we can track it by the PDR number.”
XL

Xin L.

HRIS Coordinator

“The system is not user friendly: Unnecessary separation of tabs and information, unhelpful AI bot, uneducated (and sometimes) unresponsive Support Team, constant unnecessary and unhelpful updates, numerous glitches in the system, etc.”
LS

Lauren S.

HR Coordinator and Recruiter

“We have experienced several challenges with Paylocity, including occasional inaccuracies in time-off accruals and balance transfers, incompatibility with employees in American Samoa which requires manual work, and improperly configured EDI.”

Paola A.

Cons

“At times, the system can also feel slightly slow when handling large data, reports, and customization options for workflows and reports are somewhat limited compared to more enterprise-grade tools.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

“Our experience has been below expectations. While the software is decent for basic use, poor support, lack of transparency, and unresolved refund commitments have negatively impacted our trust.”
