- According to verified reviews, Rippling's user experience is frequently praised for its intuitive interface, allowing users to easily find information and manage their benefits. In contrast, QuickBooks Payroll users mention that while it integrates well with QuickBooks Online, it lacks the efficiency of other payroll systems.
- Reviewers mention that Rippling's implementation process is quick and straightforward, with many users highlighting the ease of setup. This is a stark contrast to QuickBooks Payroll, where some users found the setup to be user-friendly but raised concerns about security and efficiency.
