"Seamless Year-End Transition and Outstanding Support"
What do you like best about OnPay?

OnPay started near the end of the year. Its teams was able to catch up data prior to my on-boarding and seamlessly placed the data for 2025 in time to file year end tax reports. I appreciate very much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OnPay?

To date, I haven't observed anything significant enough worth of being addressed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Payroll Made Easy!"

OnPay is an effective, easy to use payroll suite. The web interface is straight forward and simple to navigate. The minimal HR things I do are so easy on the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OnPay?

There are features I haven't even explored yet but that's not OnPay's fault! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Payroll Perfected: Why This Platform Stands Above the Rest"
What do you like best about OnPay?

OnPay is incredibly responsive, forward-thinking, and operationally excellent. Their support team is quick and helpful, the platform is constantly improving, and everything runs smoothly. It’s rare to find a payroll solution that’s both easy to use and built for long-term growth—OnPay delivers on all fronts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OnPay?

The only minor frustration is the recurring reminder about Social Security verification every time I run payroll. I understand the importance of compliance, but it would be great to have an option to acknowledge or dismiss it permanently once it's been addressed. That said, it's a small issue in an otherwise outstanding experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great implementation experience & off to a solid start"
What do you like best about OnPay?

The OnPay user experience is logical and descriptive which lead to less of my time onboarding & submitting. The reports seem comprehensive so far and I didn't have to ask for anything special like I have in other systems! The connection to QuickBooks worked well AND worked immediately after my first submission. Additionally, my onboarding specialist actually reached out by phone (yes, in 2025!) to introduce herself and answer any questions. All in all - a solid and appreciated start!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OnPay?

There was a weird hiccup during implementation around the expected date of the first payroll. It wasn't the end of the world in our situation and everything else was positive, so we rolled with it and kept going. In the end, while we missed our requested date we were ready and submitted only a couple days later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"OnPay is a comprehensive payroll solution with low prices and fantastic customer service!"
What do you like best about OnPay?

OnPay's prices are low and fair in comparison to other payroll services. The company does seem to care about their clients and prices the fees accordingly. The customer service is beyond amazing. They are quick to respond to questions and issues and provide knowledgeable and helpful information that make it easy to complete/correct any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OnPay?

OnPay's onboarding system seems drawn-out and clunky compared to other payroll providers. It it confusing for both our firm and our clients when they self-onboard.

Setting up the 2-run payroll cycle for a bi-monthly payroll run on a month that is almost over is almost impossible without customer service's assistance.

OnPay's opening the account for running payroll is not a quick process. They take quite a long time from the time the micro-deposits are received to do the behind-the-scenes work in order for the client to be able to run payroll. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy onboarding and first payroll run!"
What do you like best about OnPay?

Great customer service during onboarding and helping get everything set up. It was my business' first time running payroll, and it felt so nice to have experts available to help answer my questions and make sure everything was tee'd up appropriately. Communication throughout the enrollment process was consistent, professional, and helpful. I also appreciated that OnPay had state-specific tax guides that helped guide us through the state registration process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OnPay?

The Quickbooks integration was a little clunky. I don't like how OnPay syncs two separate transactions with Quickbooks: one for net wages paid to employees, and one for taxes. The taxes transaction includes both employer-paid and employee-paid taxes, so I have to go manually into Quickbooks and segregate that out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very happy with onboarding process, support and user interface"
What do you like best about OnPay?

I had to make the transition from another (unamed) payroll provider who had a complete meltdown mid-year and stopped processing payroll for their customers. I was expecting a challenging transition, but the onPay onboarding team walked me through the process - it was definitely differentiated that they offer this service. I have also been proactively contacted by their support team as an employee entered their bank account incorrectly and the direct deposit bounced. The user interface is easy to use, and great for hourly based employees. Value for money is great for a multi-state payroll. I am very happy overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OnPay?

It would be nice to have more dedicated support for registration requirements for new states - ADP level service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"OnPay is a quick and seamless onboarding experience"
What do you like best about OnPay?

Having a small company with few employees, this was a quick process. If you have a lot of employees, I believe you can upload the information which makes it even quicker. I entered my data and I still found it to be reasonable time and effort that I spent. Ease of use, ease of integration plus a fair value for what I get from OnPay, makes them a good choice for your payroll services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OnPay?

At the moment, I don't have any dislikes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Service for Small Nonprofits"
What do you like best about OnPay?

We looked everywhere for payroll software, but everything seemed complicated and pricey—until we found OnPay. Their cloud-based payroll system is exactly what we need. We’re not accountants or HR experts, so having something reliable, easy to use, and backed by really good customer support was a game-changer. The onboarding team walked us through setup, explained the system, and within a few days, we had payment schedules set up and our first payroll processed. We also love the dashboard—it makes managing employees and contractors simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OnPay?

So far, so good, no downsides! The only thing we wish had been clearer during sign-up was the paperwork needed to verify company ownership and other details. It would’ve been helpful to know upfront so we could have everything ready, avoiding the slight delay. We also had to reach out to confirm our nonprofit pricing, even though they gave us six months free. A follow-up on that would’ve been reassuring, so we wouldn’t have to worry about whether we’d actually get the discount they promised. But overall, the experience has been great!

"Excellent Experience"
What do you like best about OnPay?

Easy to use dashboard with great reports. Payroll processing is quick, easy and flawless every time. It’s easy to setup special payrolls. Our taxes are paid and quarterly reports filed seamlessly. After using OnPay fir a few years now and a background in Accounting and HR, I find OnPay is extremely valuable, from running the payroll weekly with ease, setting up employees and taxes to letting them handle the quarterly and year end reporting. I’ve used other payroll processing companies and they always have issues or conversing to use. The onboarding was seamless and I am confident with the customer support with the company.

What do you dislike about OnPay?

None. We have had zero dislikes or issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
