AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- G2 reviewers report that Keka excels in user satisfaction, boasting a significantly higher overall score compared to Paybooks. Users appreciate Keka's intuitive interface and ease of use, with one reviewer noting it feels "almost like a dictionary for my HR needs."
- According to verified reviews, Keka has a robust implementation process, with users highlighting the "very easy" initial setup. In contrast, Paybooks has not received recent reviews, which raises questions about its current user experience and support.
- Users say that Keka's customer support is outstanding, with many praising the quick responses and helpfulness. This is a notable advantage over Paybooks, where users have not recently shared feedback on support quality.
- Reviewers mention that Keka simplifies attendance tracking and employee time management, making these processes hassle-free. Paybooks also offers effective attendance management, but Keka's integration with other software is frequently highlighted as a strong point.
- G2 reviewers highlight that while both products have similar star ratings, Keka's extensive user base and higher number of reviews (over 1,600) suggest a more reliable and tested solution compared to Paybooks, which has only 24 reviews.
- Users report that Paybooks shines in customization and accuracy of payroll features, which some find beneficial for managing specific needs. However, Keka's comprehensive HR management tools and user-friendly design often make it the preferred choice for overall functionality.
