Users can talk to our advisors for free to receive software recommendations matching their needs. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to reach users interested in their products.

How Software Advice verifies reviews

Software Advice carefully verified over 2 million reviews to bring you authentic software experiences from real users. Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.

Independent research methodology

Pros:

The flexibility of reporting, the prompt customer service, and the simply integrated webclock are some of the features that I love.

Cons:

With the reporting being so customizable and flexible, sometimes it can be hard to remember where to find the report you are looking for.

Reasons for switching to PGi

The support with Dayforce/Powerpay was very poor. We also had to use multiple "products" from them to get what we needed.

Pros:

Friendly and helpful staff User Friendly Once you figure out where to look for item, reports are simple Running payroll is a dream, generate and cancel cheques as needed. Closing payroll is simple and easy

Cons:

What our employees complain about most is their vacation and flex hours do not decrease as soon as a request is approved by supervisors - if people do not do the math under requests they tend to over book. They do not want to keep track of it.

Reasons for switching to PGi

no one liked it, payroll was manual and 3rd party

Payroll automation works

Overall, PGi helps employees enter their time and process payroll more easily. Employees can access their T4s and paystubs, which they can retrieve at their convenience, saving time for payroll administrators to focus on analyzing time card data. There are various reports available to pull different types of data for budgeting payroll expenses and comparing expenses from one period to another.

Pros:

-Customer services is exceptional -Great team of people who understand your needs and work through them to meet your organizational needs -Regular updates to enhance users' experience -Canadian company understands Canadian payroll needs better -Quick response for things that can't wait given payroll timing. -Humble, patient and good listeners

Cons:

-Every time there is a system upgrade, some employees lose access to timecard entry temporarily, and system processing takes longer. -It will be great to have an email with the details of what are upgrades and what impacts those upgrades have on existing data -The vacation logs should be locked for the past days and should not change with a change in an employee's hours retroactively.
