What differentiates Patriot Payroll from other similar products?

It had been cheaper than the other choice I found, and therefore the pricing was transparent. I favor that I can schedule payroll transactions in advance so I don’t get to remember to run the payroll on a particular date. This payroll software system is incredibly simple to use and run payroll. Fixing new workers may be a breeze and managing payroll functions. It’s also very inexpensive for little businesses.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Patriot Payroll features a very fast and intuitive workflow, once it comes time to run a payroll. It’s very simple to feature and edit worker data. Reports are complete and may be customized. Client service is good. The setup was very simple. All at a competitive price. I favor that it’s the option for acquiring and distributing tax every pay period. Love that this payroll tracking system permits you to predefine how to earn PTO however, it also, lets me add extra PTO for “Bonus” functions without disrupting the system in place.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Response to client service requests sent via email is a very little slower than I’d like. However since they’ve not created any errors and customer service during setup was first-rate, I’m about to offer them a “pass” on this issue.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Overall, I’m unbelievably happy with the service, simple origin and use, and the way it’s the introductory feature to assist new business owners to sign in and guarantee all the legalities are in place. There’s some issue with changing hours to decimals but there are conversion tables simply accessible online.
