"I have yet to find anything Paycor is not flexible enough to do"
What do you like best about Paycor?

With Paycor, I can view every aspect of what my paycheck goes to with summaries over a period of time. I can change my direct deposit myself - no form to sign and send to HR - at any time including directing different amounts to different accounts. Its simple enough, I could realistically make changes as frequently as every pay period if I needed to. Paycor is even integrated into other products that will walk me through adding a portion of direct deposit in order to pay them automatically and so easy that I never have to worry about those payments being on time.

What do you dislike about Paycor?

I have not yet found anything that Paycor is not flexible enough to handle. Should I find something, I'll update my review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"PayCor's Accessibility"
What do you like best about Paycor?

It is very simplistic and an application that can be used by any age group. This aspects allows a broader range of users accessibility to systems that may have previously been outdated or even too modern. It allows a middle ground to which all users can be guaranteed. PayCor encourages production due to its easy-to-use interface and software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paycor?

My biggest dislikes would just be the lack of customization. Being able to curate your dashboard would definitely encourage individualism and even a more pleasing display which could potentially bump up usage. If the goal is uniformity, it accomplishes that well. This is simply a future suggestion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using paycor frequenetly I can confirm it is also every easy ti implemented within any organization or tools for futuring finance planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paycor?

I'm fairly hardpressed for dislikes as most functions were as expected. I do have the complaint that I can not update some things within my profile for my company because I do have have to same level of clearance as my HR support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I like thats its very simple. It's not to hard to figure it out, like how things work;"
What do you like best about Paycor?

Pretty self explanatory and i LOVE that! I have anxiety asking people what i feel like are "dumb" questions. Clock In - Clock Out. Oh, you missed your punch, no problem! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paycor?

I'm not sure how long it usually takes for management or whoever is responsible to review PTO requests, but I've been waiting for about a month since I submitted my request for paid time off during my birthday week. I still haven't received any response. I'm also unsure whether this delay is an issue with Paycor or if it's something on my company's end, since I don't really know how the process works.

"A User's Perspective on Paycor"
What do you like best about Paycor?

What I like best about Paycor is how the platform brings everything together. It's a huge time-saver to have all of our HR and payroll functions in one place. Processing payroll is pretty straightforward and reliable, and I can easily pull reports, which is a big help. The dashboard is clean and easy to navigate, so getting started with it was a breeze for our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paycor?

I've run into some persistent issues with the time-tracking. It's frustrating when the time clock is slow to load or freezes, and I've had to make a lot of manual corrections for my team because of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Use with Helpful Updates, But Customer Service Needs Improvement"
What do you like best about Paycor?

It is relatively easy to use and everything is pretty simple. I like how there are updates as well but I do wish that we were notified more often. I do like how we get more features though compared to our previous software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paycor?

Customer service is not great and it seems like we are figuring out the system at the same time. Additionally, implementation was pretty disastrous with dropped customer service reps and implementation coordinators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Reliable and User-Friendly HR & Payroll Solution"
What do you like best about Paycor?

Paycor is an excellent application for managing payroll, HR, and workforce needs in one place. The platform is very user-friendly, with an intuitive interface that makes it easy to navigate whether you are an employee or an administrator. It offers a wide range of features, including accurate payroll processing, benefits management, scheduling, time tracking, and performance management.

One of the things I appreciate most about Paycor is its reliability. The app consistently runs smoothly without glitches, and the notifications help keep me updated about important tasks like pay stubs, schedules, and HR announcements. The mobile app is especially convenient, allowing employees to quickly check their hours, request time off, and view pay history on the go.

Customer support is also responsive and professional, ensuring that any issues are resolved quickly. Paycor has clearly invested in making the experience seamless for both companies and their teams. Overall, it’s a modern, efficient, and trustworthy solution that saves time and improves communication across the workplace.

Highly recommended Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paycor?

One area where Paycor could improve is by adding the option to clock in and out directly through the mobile app. This feature would make it even more convenient for employees, especially those working off-site or in roles that require flexibility. It would streamline time tracking and further enhance the efficiency of the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very easy to use, manage all of HR needs for the company"
What do you like best about Paycor?

Paycor has added celebrations. Not only will the software remind you of employee work anniversaries, it will remind you of birthdays, too. There is a "celebrations" social media-style section where you can invite others to celebrate these moments with your team members. Especially in a remote/hybrid environment, these features help to unite an otherwise segregated workforce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paycor?

I wish you could set up an "auto-lunch" function for hourly employees. There is no way to have hourly employees automatically clock out for lunch or breaks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive UX, But Complex Setup"
What do you like best about Paycor?

I love the easy-to-use user interface of Paycor, which is great and intuitive across all modules. This simplicity in the frontend makes navigating and utilizing the platform very pleasant once Paycor is set up. Furthermore, the recruitment feature stands out with its kanban style, which is highly beneficial for visual monitoring. I find it especially valuable as it allows me to easily track the movement of candidates across different recruitment stages. If any candidate remains in a pipeline for too long, it becomes quickly visible, prompting timely contact to address any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paycor?

I find the backend implementation to be extremely complex, requiring a lot of trial and error. The implementation team appears to be stretched too thin, and the support team is inadequately trained, often providing inaccurate or outdated information. Additionally, despite two years of using the software, we are still in the process of implementing it, which speaks to the difficult setup process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Eli Cassis of Paycor

"All-in-One HR Solution That's Incredibly User-Friendly"
What do you like best about Paycor?

Comprehensive software for Payroll, Scheduling, HR and Recruiting all in one that is more user friendly than most. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paycor?

Current limitations regarding reporting and time zone restrictions for representatives assigned to our premium account we're PST and our reps assigned reps are only available until 2p PST which is a challenge but the after-hours reps are nice too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
