Generally Paycor works for the needs that we have for our mid sized business. I have seen some improvements since Paychex has gotten involved.

Pros

Payroll is easy and user friendly. Employee management is very easy and our employees also find it easy to navigate.

Cons

Would like dedicated Account Managers for support. General support isnt always beneficial and find that resonse times are extremely lengthy and goes to multiple departments to solve problems.

Very good. It's organized, easy to view and simple to understand. My small business employer utilizes it for schedules and time off

Pros

They have very secure logins. Even though my email wouldn't work, i could get authenticator to reroute to another email to login

Cons

It's simple, like super simple. I think HR is underutilizing it due to its simplicity. They mail everything anyway.

It was fine, and I have no real complaints about the platform or software. It was reliable and that all you can ask for in a platform like this.

Pros

It was a super easy to use platform that housed all of my HR items in a previous role. Did everything you could want it to, and was very simple in its use. Could always reliably get my pay info from there.

Cons

It is simple, and there's not a lot of features that you can do outside its main functions. Payment details are the main thing we used it for but nothing more.

How Capterra ensures transparency

Capterra lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Capterra is free for users. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to receive web traffic and sales opportunities. Sponsored profiles include a link-out icon that takes users to the provider's website.
