Paycor - Simplified System A Must Have
Paycor has more than enough to offer.
One App. that can make life so much easier with these features:
* Payroll
* Benefits
* Expense Management
* Scheduling
* Background Screening
* Talent / Work Management
* Point of Sales
* And so much more. .
An ability to have all the above qualities, if not most or all companies require - this overall experience is a blessing. Thank you Paycor for simplifying HR responsibilities. Well Done...🤗
Pros
It's compacted so much into one system. Not login in several apps to get everything done. Time saver for sure!
Cons
I am yet to discover a dislike with Paycor..

Once it's set up, it's been wonderful
It took about 4 months to get everything straightened out and running smoothly. But I really think it's because they were understaffed at the time of onboarding. It has been pretty smooth since.
Pros
It takes care of a lot of aspects of payroll automatically. It will even integrate month-to-month workman's comp insurance and 401k through Human Interest.
Cons
The initial setup took forever. Apparently, they had too many companies sign up at the same time and not enough people to do it. They had me submit a bunch of forms and reports, and then couldn't find the information and I had to get them updated reports. It took about 5 months to get everything straightened onut.

Performance when working
It is very easy to use, its interface is intuitive, and it has allowed me to maintain efficient management of employees and company projects. It also provides detailed reports that assist in decision-making.
Pros
I really enjoy using it because its management is cloud-based, and it especially helps in my work area, as it offers tools for managing employee records, processing payments, and ensuring compliance with labor laws. Additionally, Paycor is efficient when it comes to processing payroll tasks, as well as employee recruitment and training.
Cons
Paycor can be somewhat expensive and also limited in terms of customization, which can be frustrating as it doesn't allow for working in the most efficient way.

A Fine Alternative To ADP
At first I was hesitant when we switched over from ADP. But I can say not only am I impressed, but I actually prefer it now!!
Pros
It's extremely used friendly and I love the UI! It's an extremely versatile program that we use for payroll, employee benefits, tracking of both personal and employees performance, tax prep and so much more!
Cons
My one and only complaint was that it was initially particularly easy to navigate the benefits portions and features on Paycor. But once that was discerned, it was easy to do in subsequent years.
Response from Paycor
Thank you for your positive feedback on your experience with Paycor. We're glad to hear that you find our platform user-friendly and versatile for your payroll, employee benefits, and performance tracking needs. We appreciate your preference for Paycor over ADP and we're committed to providing you with a great overall experience.

Paycor is a decent Payroll Provider and HRIS for the cost.
Pros
The thing I like most about Paycor is that it seems they do care about customer feedback. They try to address many of the issues their users face and provide them with regular updates on what is being improved in the system.
Cons
The customer service is not very good. Many of the representatives I've spoken with don't seem to understand the system and lack communication skills. On many of my calls to Paycor, I wind up waiting on hold for an extended period of time just for the call to be disconnected.

Paycor HRIS Review
Overall, I am quite happy with Paycor. We are able to accomplish what we need and work with them to customize our solution.
Pros
I like the functionalities of Paycor for almost all things HR related. This system is easy to use for employee payroll, benefits, timekeeping, compensation, and more. The premium support option is amazing - if you have an issue, you call in and talk to a team of Paycor reps that know your company and processes. You talk to the same team each time! They have a lot of extra features that can be added.
Cons
The downside of Paycor is if you have multiple companies (EIN's) that need to work together. A lot of things can be customized, but some options are a one size fits all for your entire company. This is particularly frustrating with Performance Management as all companies don't do the same thing. Also, it seems like they haven't tested quite enough before rolling out new features.
Response from Paycor
Thank you for your positive feedback on Paycor. We're pleased to hear that you find our platform valuable for HR management and that you appreciate our premium support services. While we understand your concerns regarding the limitations for multiple companies, we'll share your feedback with our product team for consideration.

pretty good experience
overall the experience is ok. I wish we had dedicated support specialists. It feels as though if there is a problem and you need to contact support there is always someone new that we have to reach out to and explain the situation yet again.
I also understand from our payroll person that there seems to be quarterly tax issues and she tries numerous times to get it take care of. In this regard it is costing out company more money.
Pros
A lot of the features make sense and I like that it is one central portal for our needs.
Cons
Things will change without notice. Also, if we are having an issue with something we will hear it is a "known issue". I feel we, the customer, should know too.

Paycor as an HRIS
I went to Paycor's user conference in April 2024 and benefited from doing so. I was able to voice some frustrations/questions while there; representatives from Paycor did follow up with me later to provide answers and training. The sessions they offered had product-specific information, which was helpful to me as a new user. My Paycor experience has been much more positive since then. I did appreciate being heard.
Pros
The Paycor platform is intuitive to end users.
Cons
Paycor's general customer service is underwhelming. The implementation for HR modules was nonexisten.

Paycor Recruiting - Not worth the money
Not great. We have reached out several times to set meetings to get this fixed and try to optimize the platform. We have had 0 response, automated responses that are not applicable, and even escalated the attempts to reach out multiple times. When they finally got back to us months later, they attempted to charge us a fee so they could fix what was all wrong with the platform. Then ghosted us again.
Pros
Integrates with Paycor on the payroll and HR side.
Cons
It is hard to navigate. Not user friendly. Low HM adoption rate. Lacking in so many areas. They should drop this product and work on better integrations with better known ATS like Greenhouse or Lever.
I also just learned that Paycor is ending their integrations to these top ATS to potentially force people to using theirs or one of the ATS they acquired. This move has made us want to reconsider even using Paycor for payroll and HR.
