The efficiency gains are tremendous. > > **Cons**: There isn't a lot I dislike. Flock does a good job of continuing to make improvements so most issues are fairly minor. > > Flock allows onboarding to start quickly, reducing the administrative burden associated with processing new hires. Consolidating and pushing employee data management to the employee further improves the efficiency associated with employee data management. ----- ### "So Convenient\!" — 5.0/5 > **Julie** | *8 March 2021* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love how easy it is to make an offer to an applicant, fill out the W4 and I9 and do other onboarding tasks, enroll in benefits, and track PTO. Makes my job so much easier and reduces paperwork. > > **Cons**: There always seems to be a glitch or hiccup when we enroll in dental/vision benefits. Partly, it's due to having just one application for both, but the system places the check mark in the wrong box often. > > It really makes my HR tasks easier and more efficient. I can't imagine not having it. I also get a lot of comments from new hires about how easy it was for them to complete tasks before the first day. ----- ### "Paychex Flex with Flock Benefits" — 3.0/5 > **Kerri** | *9 April 2025* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Flock Benefits is embedded in our payroll platform (Paychex Flex), which makes it easy for employees to access and make updates. They process for Open Enrollment is easy, as the portal is very user-friendly. > > **Cons**: Some of my cons might be more a function of Paychex than Flock, but there are often issues with information not updating properly. We have had one employee whose date of birth continues to change - even though we have not made any changes. This impacts his ability to use his benefits, as the carrier feeds are wrong. > > Overall, my experience has been average. I have used other Benefits Administration portals that were similar. As I mentioned, some of our issues might be a reflection of Paychex rather than Flock. As a trusted partner, however, Flock should be aware of the concerns with Paychex. ----- ### "Flock just keeps getting better with each iteration." — 5.0/5 > **Christopher** | *28 May 2019* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Overall the customization and adaptability of the platform are my favorite aspects. Often products like this are over-thought and try to do too much without giving consideration to industries that don't fit the norms. For our company we can keep it simple as we build our systems while gently coaxing an old-school manufacturing firm into the 21st century. > > **Cons**: Not much to dislike. Mostly minor items that aren't real hurdles. 1, wish employee tasks could have an expiration or time-out feature. Admin view of employee tasks is clunky with all the employees who ignore their tasks. 2, would be nice if login had a longer window before logging me out. > > Very, very good. Completely transformed our benefits administration\! ----- ### "Great Product, Highly Recommend" — 5.0/5 > **William** | *29 October 2020* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This software is very simple to learn and implement. If there are any question I may have, Flock has an excellent service team to help me the very same day, usually within a couple of hours. The price is another huge selling point. A lot can be managed from this platform at such an excellent price. > > **Cons**: My least liked feature is the software's limitations. The system is so user friendly and less expensive because of those limitation. I know they are current updating as they can but features such as editing a W2 rather than deleting and resubmitting would be helpful for the client. > > Overall I am extremely happy with Flock. The price and customer service will make me recommend this product 10/10. The limitations are an inconvenience but there is usually a work around so it wouldn't ruin my experience. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/65545/flock?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/65545/flock) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
