Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 38 reviews, most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. People frequently struggle to reach customer support, mentioning extremely long wait times, unhelpful automated bots, and a complete lack of human assistance when urgent problems arise. Many users also experienced severe issues with payroll processing, unexpected system errors during migration, and frustrating account lockouts that severely delayed employee payments. Though some reviewers noted that the previous version of the software worked well and was straightforward and simple to use. A few customers also mentioned that timely assistance was available and management handled previous problems smoothly when the digital platform functioned properly.

I needed assistance for an off cycle payment. I called n with my request and an agent called me back within half an hour. She was super helpful and walked me through every step ensuring I understood the process.

It would be great to have access to a live agent

It would be great to have access to a live agent who can help at the time in need, instead of waiting for a callback, which usually does not work because I am usually not available at the time of the callbacks.

Very happy customer.

Improvments

It is a really really great payroll program, however it needs some adjustments. It is good to have customer services to assist whenever you have a problem or a question, but i should be allowed to do adjustments instead of opening a ticket for something like adjusting month or updating some information from previous months. Also it would be really time saving if your customer can adjust amounts of receiving money either by cheque or by direct deposit and i ofcourse need to be able to print the T4 for the employees for example someone is not using emails how will that employee receive his T4. These are the main points that need adjustments.
