What do you like best about Ease?

It is easy to run reports and get data. The user interface is simple and clean. It is easy and intuitive to navigate around the site. The process of enrolling and reviewing benefits options is easy for staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ease?

I expect there to be more documents uploaded for reference - plan info, instructions for admin, instructions for staff. There isn't a lot of self-serve for troubleshooting problems or answering questions. The Administration override dates are not clear on how they should be used and again, I wish there was more documentation on what the effect of changing/using different fields is on the administration side. There are some screens where you can edit fields and it isn't clear whether changes have been saved. It saves automatically but it would be nice to have a visual confirmation of that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ease solving and how is that benefiting you?

Well-organized data and streamlined integration with the carriers. It's easy to review information that's needed and to have it in a format that makes it easy to use. When changes are made in Ease, we can trust that things are being taken care of on the carrier side and will be reflected in our account, very much simplifying the process of hiring and terminating staff and managing the changes involved with insurance.

What do you like best about Ease?

Very easy to make a benefits selection as an employee. The platform is very user-friendly. I can find benefit information within seconds! I can also re-direct employees to find the same information on the platform. The platform is very easy to use when assigning benefits to new hires. The progress or enrollment status also helps HR to keep track of those pending enrollments needed to be completed.

What do you dislike about Ease?

Open enrollment (benefit rollover) settings are weird and do not always sync correctly. We had an issue during open enrollment where some information was supposed to rollover to the next year, but the reflected information on Ease did not reflect that.

We don't have to complete benefits by paper. Electronic benefit selection is very efficient. All benefit information for employees is in a single place and are very easy to find. This platform helps us keep track of those enrollments that are pending.

What do you like best about Ease?

There is a seamless connection between the broker and our employees using the site. Our broker can add in all the plans and pricing; our employees get a first-rate experienced picking their benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like the employer to have some of the access only a broker has so we can update files quicker and not rely on them for every little detail Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ease?

What I find most helpful is how easy the system is to use and the custom reporting. We use the enrollment tools and reporting. Compared to other competitors, I feel that I would recommend ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ease?

I am newer to ease so I do not have an opinion of what the product does not have. As far as how it could be better from talking to my peers, it would help to shoe the current enrollments during an open enrollment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ease:

Do your research first and be sure to ask for referrals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ease solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ease is helping us become more automated so that we can help our clients. Yes, I feel we as a company are benefiting financially because even though the system costs money, we are saving time by having it automated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very strong support for Brokers & Plan Administrators

The simplicity of creating benefit plans and setting up a new client Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Reporting is limited. A Custom Report cannot be shared with the Client. A lot of reports cannot be run for a specific time period.

Very limited payroll company connection offering.

Also would very much like to see previous year's Employee Benefit Summary Report (or after an employer termination) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ease solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to offer a "complimentary" Benefit Admin system to ALL of our clients and convert them from a paper process or excel spreadsheet process.

What do you like best about Ease?

The view/aesthetics of the platform was nice. When going through the screens, the questions I may have had were answered somewhere on the screen. It allows the employee to do some exploration, while not getting too far into the weeds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ease?

There wasn't anything that I didn't like about the platform itself. However, there were some interface issues between the desktop platform and the mobile app platform - I couldn't complete my Open Enrollment on the desktop because of a glitch in the system, but on the app I could. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ease solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ease is assisting me in the open enrollment/benefits enrollment process by removing the process's of paper passing/manual aspect. Having it all electronic and able to pass along to the carriers automatically saves me so much time and effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
