Massive payroll data through data upload

The most common problerma I could solve using this software refers to solid reporting functions. These functions improve auditability for information and make actionable decisions within the company.

PROS

One thing I love is that I can automate complex calculations, as well as past, present and future tax changes, which helps me to reduce the risk of compliance issues.

CONS

So far I could get a handicap or negative aspect of Synchr that is meaningful, however I could say that is not aimed at small businesses and maybe that detracts functionality.

Great Service but.....

We are using the Time Clock System as well a complete Payroll Services.

PROS

User Friendliness and Helpful Customer Service Team.

CONS

I wish an email or reminder would be sent when there's system update.

Reasons for switching to PrimePay

Because I wanted the same type of program for the Time Clock. I didn't want to have 2 separate bills every month. It is very user friendly and easy to manage employees since we have 2 office locations.

Vendor Response

Hi Ananay, thanks so much for the nice review! We appreciate your business and hope to have many more years with you.

Poor Quality Service and Support

Website is very clunky and impossible for employees to use unless they are using the website. Apps only work for iPhone users and not for androids. Payroll is extreamly slow to load and takes longer to reclculate payroll than it is to upload hundreds of employee data.

PROS

The implementation team was very responsive.

CONS

We went live with SyncHR/Primepay January 1, as of today 8/14, Q1 and Q2 taxes have not been filed properly, and I have not received any responses on how they will be resolved. I send a follow up email weekly, but there have been no updates in 3 months. Implementation went rough and all employees W4 information was uploaded incorrectly, causing problems on employee taxes. Employee direct deposits uploaded incorrectly. The platform was literlly slapped together in hopes that we would find and solve their issues when we went live, instead of giving us the time to test everything ahead of time. 8 months into this project, I am still finding issues where I was told was resolved, but are not. Not a single ticket has been resolved. Worst customer service I've ever experienced.

Reason for choosing PrimePay

We were told customer service was top knotch and the ticket resolution times were within hours. This is a LIE!

SyncHR from a Users Perspective with some insight into the Admin Side

Overall it has been nice and simple to use. Nice UI for the most part and it allows company wide announcements for updates and so forth. It's a nice place to house tax documents and benefit information.

PROS

It is pretty straight forward in terms of where you need to go to look for certain things. Sign in and you have a menu of the different things you have access to depending on what your HR wants you to see. We can access our tax info and see our personal info. It's really easy to make changes to your information if needed. Clocking in and clocking out is straight forward and if any change requests are needed that is easily doable as well. Requesting time off is very simple and to the point which is always helpful, your balances are readily available.

CONS

From time to time it glitches and I can't even log in or if I log in I can't access any other pages except the one that you land on once you log in. At times clocking in lags and it looks like it freezes but then when you refresh or clock in again it logs both clock in/out times. From the admin perspective approving changes at times gets missed or the changes don't get saved properly. It would be nice if for example adding time or making changes, the time will calculate for you, say adding 4.37 hours to 12:17pm to complete an 8 hour shift.

PrimePay Review

The team we work with at PrimePay are amazing and very helpful when we have compliance questions or issues in general.

PROS

We use PrimePay for all services they offer but majority of our business is with COBRA administration. They make the COBRA event process seamless and handle all communications between the employee/insurance carrier/employer, which means our job is pretty much done once we enter the employee in PrimePays portal

CONS

The lag time between an employee electing COBRA coverage with Primepay and Primepay enrolling the employee in COBRA continuation coverage.

Vendor Response

Thank you so much for your kind review,Thomas. We're so glad to hear that you've enjoyed working with our team. We look forward to continued success together!
