Great for Remote Worker
I love Paylocity. My only con isn't an everyday issue that many users will encounter. It was mainly my bad luck. I would highly recommend this product for those that work remotely. I love that I don't have to get to a computer to clock in and out. The app is super easy to use, a child can figure it out in a jiffy.
Pros
clock in / clock out from ANYWHERE
Keep track of your hours with a simple click
missed punch? No problem. you can fix it yourself (if your HR didn't lock you out of it that is)
Impressions section: Your company can give you praises and make it public.
Cons
There was a time that my bank account got compromised so my direct deposit info needed to be changed. It took my HR department a long time to get my info updated and for my pay check to be sent. I work remotely so Paylocity sent my paycheck to my company's office then my company sent the pay check to me through snail mail... with bad luck usps lost the letter.... getting my paycheck processed again took an entire pay period to receive my paycheck.

Paylocity has been a great tool for our company!
Our overall experience has been very positive. The implementation process went smoothly and felt like we had a good team at Paylocity helping us get started with the product. The system was able to meet our pretty sophisticated needs and has been a very good investment if you are looking to move into a more user-friendly product.
Pros
Some of the best parts of this product is how everything is connected and works well together. There is no disjointed feeling as you move from one part of the software to the next. This makes life as an HR professional, payroll preparer, or general accountant a lot easier. We appreciate being able to place all of our HR processes and especially onboarding into Paylocity and eliminate a lot of busy work behind the scenes.
Cons
We wish the workflow software was a little bit further along but we have been told it is a priority in development right now so that is good to hear.

PaycorReasons for Choosing Paylocity
We made the switch because we needed a software that was a little bit more sophisticated and more connected across all of its programs. Netchex could be a very good tool for some companies, but we needed one that was a little bit more advanced for our needs.Switched From
NetchexReasons for Switching to Paylocity
We chose Paylocity because it was a good price for what they offered and the site was very user-friendly. Other products we looked at were not as easy to navigate.- Industry: Marketing & Advertising

Paylocity, a low-cost human resources and payroll software package
In short, Paylocity is a robust solution for human resources and payroll management, guaranteeing transparency and security of user data.
Pros
As a digital marketing freelancer, I'm often asked to lead web projects (that exceed 1 year's work). In these cases, I team up with other freelancers. I've enjoyed using Paylocity software to manage human resources and payroll. In my experience, I've really appreciated the online payroll processing features and the fast data entry. This saves an incredible amount of time, and everything is done in complete transparency.
Cons
I can't think of a single negative aspect of using Paylocity's payroll and human resources management software; I find it very efficient for payroll and human resources management.

Very glitch software, if you want to be irritated and take more time to do everything in their...
I would never use this payroll software again, even the app is not operational.
Pros
I did not like anything everything was very complicated and did not work. Do not get this app until they fix it.
Cons
Every single aspect that I tried to use in this software did not work, it was so frustrating and took me so many more hours to complete and all of my co workers say the same thing.

Quick and Painless
Pros
Access to everyone's records and time make it easy to work with multiple people at the same time on getting an issue solved. The physical time clock is great for all the employees to use. Correction was quick and easy for any clocking in error or HR issue. The transition of data from the other payroll software was done perfectly.
Cons
The issue of the first set up was terrible. We had a team to help us transition and get the set up for the system changed about three times before we could actually move forward. Running reports can also be hassle if you are looking for something specific.
