Paycom simplifies payroll processes for our company
Employees will be responsible for their own actions going forward. Our company's cultural flaws have been exposed through Paycom software. It's making us evolve, but in a positive direction.
Pros
Your sales representative and the service staff are committed to answering your inquiries and resolving any problems that may arise. I've worked in similar roles with other services before, and they're just not the same.
Cons
Since our previous leader left the organization, communication with our new leader has been difficult. No one else was as helpful in guiding me through the steps as he was. Considered myself safe because I had previously used Paycom. I was completely unfamiliar with the Betti component.

Paycom for the win!
Pros
The integrated system was a breeze to work with. Managing my staffs' time was easier than with other top-rated software. The staff requests changes and off days through the app or online and the approval/denial/ change process is extremely easy.
Cons
With our version, we have a time clock attached, the time clock gave us problems when we set up new employees and I had to call customer service each time. It would not accept the add in however, we found out the time clock itself had an issue and was not functioning as it should have. It was replaced and now functions correctly.

Honestly not worth the cost
We've had Paycom for 3 years. Not a single rep we've ever worked with has had HR or payroll experience so they have no context for any of our questions or issues. You have to explain to the customer service rep how their own system works in order for them to understand the problem you're having. We've also had 6 different customer service reps in 3 years - they keep quitting. I don't blame them, they aren't given any of the knowledge or tools to actually be helpful. And don't expect to actually be able to get through to your rep when you call, you'll get someone else who knows even less. When you do get your rep, they always have to "get back to you" about your question but they rarely do. The most common answer or solution is "oh, the system can't do that but we'll put in a suggestion for it with our development team". Still waiting on most of those developments.
Their big selling point is that it saves time - the trick is they mean it saves the employees time, not the Payroll people, not the HR people, not the IT people. For all of these people, processing time has doubled and some things are literally impossible to do in the system, things that are standard in any other system.
Everything is designed to charge you more money and everything is overpriced. We're currently being forced into an update to their payroll module that will also cost more money. It's not an optional upgrade and it's not an upgrade we want or need, but we will be forced into it anyway.
Pros
Once you understand how it works, you can figure most things out for yourself. And you'll have to.
Cons
Everything is so manual that administrators will spend a lot of additional time on processes and transactions. Customer Service is really terrible - they don't know how their own system works and they don't follow through on commitments.

Paycom is the better alternative
Overall I have really enjoyed the ease of use and streamlined experience.
Pros
Paycom has all the same benefits that the big names like ADP have for a better price.
Cons
PTO accruals and usage is somewhat confusing.
