"Used to use this software but switched"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Payroll?

The best part of this software was that it was with our QuickBokks accounting software and did not have to switch to another platform to process the payroll. It was easy to install, and we used it bi-weekly. Customer support was hard to communicate with. There is no extra intergration, as the payroll feature is already avaialble in QBs you just have to get it turned on and pay the fees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Payroll?

Setting up this software with employees information took a long time. It was not as user friendly as the rest of QBs is. Having some employees who were on salary and some hourly made it more difficult to add in the taxes for each. And we had to file our own taxes. Customer support is done by people who are located out of our country, which made it hard to sometimes understand what they said and it took them a long time to respond. We use QuickBooks and love it, but the payroll side needs much improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Super easy!"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Payroll?

The setup is quick and simple, user-friendly, allows for customization (within reason), and integrates with the rest of my software already! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Payroll?

I wish there were a time clock that integrates with QB payroll. I have to manually calculate and enter the employees' timecards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Perfect payroll software for small business"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Payroll?

It is an easy-to-use automated interface for running and tracking payroll for employers and employees. Customizable menu tabs for most used or favorites. Easy to assign user roles without giving too much or too little access. Detailed reports are laid out in an easy-to-use reports page. Capable and caring customer support for tax issues and payroll corrections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Payroll?

The hold times are often long for support and wait times for processing of corrections or resolutions. The newly required upgraded subscription for payroll tax corrections, even if they are already automated. The inability to use my old invoices after the most recent update without warning.

"Good if you are "all in" on Quickbooks"
What do you like best about QuickBooks Payroll?

In my oppinion, the best thing about QuickBooks Payroll is its integration with other Quickbooks products. It made it easier to manage time sheets, invoicing, and expenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Payroll?

Cost. It is kind of like "Mac" in that, Apple products work best when you have an iPhone, Apple TV, and Macbook computer - but the cost can really add up compared to a Windows PC, and Android Phone, an LG watch, etc... But man, it works smoothly. Same with QuickBooks, if you are all-in on that environemnt thigns tend to work well together, but the costs can start to add up, and if you have needs that it doesn't meet you either go without or run simultaneous systems.
