The platform - it is one complete platform. The reporting is also ver easy to use.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The ease of the employee experience and usage of ESS.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The individual fees in payroll. Specifically, the mailing fees. should be more transparent about those fees and how it is billed. Should enhance that billing and only charge when actually used.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Before purchasing Paycom, make sure you understand how the system will work with your actual HR and payroll processes, not just how it performs during a demo. Ask detailed questions, test real-life scenarios, and involve your payroll, HR, benefits, and managers in the evaluation. Understand the level of configuration, support, training, and ongoing administration that will be required before making your decision. Paycom is very user friendly for employees and managers.
