AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- Users report that Paylocity excels in its "Employee Self Service" features, particularly the "Web Portal" and "Mobile" access, which received high ratings of 9.0 and 8.6 respectively. In contrast, Sequoia's self-service capabilities are less robust, leading to a lower overall user satisfaction.
- Reviewers mention that Paylocity's "Expense Management" functionality, with a score of 7.5, is more comprehensive than Sequoia's offerings. Users appreciate Paylocity's "Digital Receipt Management" and "Employee Reimbursement" features, which scored 8.7 and 9.0, respectively, making expense reporting more efficient.
- G2 users highlight Paylocity's superior "Quality of Support" with a score of 8.5, indicating that users feel more supported and valued. In contrast, Sequoia's support received a lower rating, which may impact user experience and satisfaction.
- Users on G2 report that Paylocity's "Payroll Entry" feature is highly rated at 9.1, making payroll processing seamless. Sequoia, however, does not match this level of efficiency, which can lead to frustrations during payroll cycles.
- Reviewers say that Paylocity's "Compliance" features, rated at 8.3, provide a more reliable framework for managing regulatory requirements compared to Sequoia, which has not received the same level of positive feedback in this area.
- Users report that Paylocity's "Time, Attendance, and PTO" management features are rated at 8.4, making it easier for employees to track their time off. Sequoia's offerings in this category are perceived as less user-friendly, leading to potential confusion among employees.
