We recently switched from ADP to… We recently switched from ADP to Paylocity and were very excited about it. The excitement didn't last long. They sell you on a full service experience with all of these perks, when in reality, their implementation process is terrible. The team assigned to us would continuously make mistakes and leave it up to us to fix them. When we pushed back and told them to fix their own mistakes, they took forever. Their customer service is awful. They tell you you will receive a response within 24 hours but the customer service rep won't respond for days. The entire experience from start to now has been awful! Makes me want to go back to ADP. I wouldn't recommend switching to Paylocity. The frustration and poor customer service isn't worth it.

Customer Service is not their thing! overall the app is user friendly, the community page is great. If you are the kind of person who knows how to trouble shoot and figure out issues on your own, you will be fine. If you are the kind of person who needs help with figuring something out, forget it! you will send them a question, they will answer, and before you even have a chance to let them know the answer did or didn't work they are sending you a survey if they resolved your issue. so you write back and say no, and they are like, OH Well, I've got nothing. I have had numerous issues where I needed someone's help trouble shooting, and they don't do that. They are not willing to help find a solution, they give you one, and if it doesn't work, well, that's your problem. We were told we would have someone to assist us, sure they answer the first email, but normally it does absolutely nothing! their service is always my last resort because I now know, it's not going to help.

Poor all around I am a small business owner and was switched from My Pay, who were poor, to Paylocity by my Accounting firm. The switch was made because so many of their clients were having problems with My Pay. Unfortunately Paylocity are as bad if not worse. Contact can be very difficult and rarely solves the issue in one go. Given payroll deadlines this causes all sorts of problems getting it submitted on time. At set up they tell you how much they will take care of you etc and then of course they all disappear and leave you in the hands of what I believe is a Fillipino customer service via e-mail. Set up was done by my CPA and Paylocity and all the problems seem to arise from there. I am going to be changing both my CPA and Payroll company as they both hide behind such statements as its not our responsibility yet they charge you $5000 for their expert advice.

Fed Up Like most here leaving a review; their customer service is horrible. I constantly receive Notices demanding me to take action so they can file tax returns. Each quarter for three quarters now, they require me to log into the taxing agency to authorize them as the TPA or they can'f file timely returns. Each quarter, I waste my time to confirm they have TPA authority and then push back on service. Who confirms they do have authority and this Notice is just a reminder. That's not what the notice states. It states I didn't authorize it and they can't file them. "Reminder" is no where in the Notice and they state they can't file our returns. This is just one issue. Their IT security is a joke as well. You can process a payroll check (with completely funding of it) without any problem or required verification code. However, if want to look up an employees simple phone number, you have to ask for a security code and enter it before it will display if one is in the system. (Keep in mind you can issue payroll checks without it) but you need it to see a phone number!?! Yes, an employee phone number! They claim its for security, but you can find back doors to most everything in their security platform. It's a joke. Everything, except that employee phone number. And lets be honest. I am the one who gave them the phone number. Stupid!...no one will listen to a complaint but they will attempt to sell you more services, claiming it is going to help foster employee relationships. This company is just half baked as their payroll system. You might as well do it yourself.

Stay away from the ATS. The HRIS is fine...I don't know much about customer support (as reading other reviews), but I have to say that the ATS system is way below average. They sell you on an "open API", but very few integrations actually work. If you want the ATS to integrate with anything, be prepared to get scoped $20,000+ for the other company to build the integration. Every time I call in I get a note that says "your account manager is unavailable". Also, when you sign up for the Paylocity ATS, you also have to sign up for JobTarget, which is $1-2K per month in order for your jobs to get posted anywhere except Indeed. Very frustrating onboarding/implementation as well...one of the worst I've ever been a part of.
