What do you like best about ExtensisHR?

ExtensisHR is our second PEO in my tenure at RIBUS, and while they are different from the last, they have been incredibly helpful and responsive. We are a small business and do not have an internal HR team, so it's really wonderful to know that we have a resource in Extensis that can keep us up-to-date and provide advice and guidance on important HR topics. I feel like not a week goes by that we aren't communicating with Extensis on one topic or another. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ExtensisHR?

This is less about Extensis and more about our former PEO, where they were more hands-on and able to act on our company's behalf versus provide guidance. This was frustrating at first since it was not what we were used to, but it is allowing us to LEARN versus DIRECT and I find it incredibly valuable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Keeping us up-to-date on policies and ensuring we're compliant with employees in multiple states. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ExtensisHR?

As a hiring manager, it is tedious and time consuming to review thousands of resumes that are submitted based on one job posting. ExtensisHR takes the burden of this review off of our plate and has provided screened, applicable candidates to us for next steps. ExtensisHR helped to review resumes based on a job description, narrow down the applicant pool, screen the candidates based on salary, and provide recommendations for ways in which to attract qualified candidates. It has saved hours of this grueling process, allowing us to focus on other tasks at hand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ExtensisHR?

It is often difficult to fully explain a job description based on the job title. At times, candidates have been passed on to us, that in theory, should fit the bill due to the job title, however, their experience did not align and/or their salary expectations were higher than our budget. With this though, the time savings of having ExtensisHR handle this process for us, far outweighs the number of candidates that were not qualified. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The time it takes for screening applicants. ExtensisHR allows us to focus on other priorities while they narrow down the candidate pool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ExtensisHR?

Extensis benefits plans were significantly better and cheaper than what we had with a previous PEO in most cases. We liked the many benefits they offered including things like pet insurance. They also have recruiting help should we need it though I have not yet used that service. The implementation process was relatively painless and the team was helpful in ensuring we had the support needed. They were very responsive and knowledgeable.The customer service team was quick to answer questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ExtensisHR?

At this point, there's not much to dislike about Extensis. A couple nitpicky things:the sales team at the beginning of the process didn't always have the right answers to my questions. An SOP to reference on how to do payroll would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We had very expensive and not very good benefits previously. We now have a full solution of benefits that we like and that our employees find useful. As a one-person HR team, Extensis also helps me with HR tasks and is a resource to ask questions to. They are very helpful and knowledgeable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ExtensisHR?

As a small employer, ExtensisHR allows us to have the systems, benefits, and policies in place to run our human resources and payroll functions smoothly and effectively.

These days, its hard to have anybody on payroll without have a fully vetted employee handbook to protect you and the company. At another company, my HR team and I spent hours upon hours fine tuning a handbook that also needed a legal review. The process here was so much more convient and you have experts to assist you in completing it.

Our HR manager, Cara, is amazing. Always helpful and friendly. And if she doesn't know for certain, she has a team of subject matter experts ready to help.

Erika is my lifeline when it comes to payroll. We run semi-monthly and it seems like at least once a month, we have a curveball to deal with; sometimes of my own making! Erika knows just what to do and gets back to with the solution before you know it.

As a small employer, both workers compensation and health and welfare benefits can be a real challenge. Both are easy to administer and the offering for health plans, dental, vision, and ADD/life insurance give us the ability to compete with larger organizations. Plus they have numerous supplemental benefits like pet insurance, legal assistance, supplemental life, AFLAC, etc.

ExtensisHR is a complete solution for your business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ExtensisHR?

ExtensisHR does its best to understand your business needs and services that are required, but some details can fall through the gap. Just be careful to review things as you get setup or add new functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have employees in a number of states, so their ability to manage that is nearly priceless. I don't know how we would do it if were had to do it ourselves. The tools for your business are great - payroll, PTO tracking, training requirements, open enrollment, and handbook are just some of the tools I have used to save me hundreds of hours of work.

What do you like best about ExtensisHR?

At this point, the only real positive we have experienced is the affordable benefits costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ExtensisHR?

The software is horrendous. We are going into month 3 and our implementation is not complete, there are still pieces of the software that are not built out. Our implementation team's quality of work is basically nonexistent. We have spent nearly as much time fixing the mistakes of the implementation team as we have actually using the software. It's impossible to integrate other softwares with ExtensisHR, our dev team has been attempted to integrate the software we provide with the platform with no luck. I use this software every single day and am still findind out more features that it is lacking. It's an incredibly manual software and frustrating to you. It takes an average of 10 clicks to get to view anything you are looking for and every time I ask for advice or assistance from our implementation team, they just tell me to use the search bar instead. Speaking of help from the implementation team, training on the software has been nonexistent. Every time we ask for assistance on how to do a simple task, they send us a "How To Guide". If someone had taken a couple of hours to truly train us on how to use the software, we wouldn't still be asking for "How To Guides" 3 months into using the software. ExtensisHR limits the admin's ability to view or update employee information but at the same time, when someone from the company emails their support, the support team asks for their SSN over email in their first response - I don't think I need to point out how inappropriate that is to verify over email. We signed a year contract but I am already counting down the days for when our contract is up and we can switch to a software that actually works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We implemented ExtensisHR as our PEO, mainly because of the cost savings for benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This treatment extend in all their services, from payroll, recruitment, HR, and benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ExtensisHR?

There have been some features that were not fully fuctional like LOA cloud. However, that was because it was a completly new awesome feature they were installing and needed some time for it to be fully functional. But now we have a fully funcional easy to use Leave management tool so I guess it is not so bad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Extensis is currently helping me with their new school outreach, they are helping with mandatory yearly training for staff, yearly contract, keeping up with certification, recruitment needs, and much more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ExtensisHR?

The customer service we've received has been excellent. From our Payroll Rep to our HR Rep, everyone has always been responsive and supportive. I have also received feedback from our employees that reaching out to the Employee Solutions Center has always been a positive experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ExtensisHR?

There is nothing major that I dislike about ExtensisHR. I do wish that the payroll system were more adaptable to what we need rather than the other way around. But, this is so minor and does not negatively effect my ability to do my job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

There have been some really great additions to hiring and onboarding for schools that I think will really benefit folks who don't already have a hiring/onboarding tracking system that they are using. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Extensis is quick to respond and always provides helpful responses. We transitioned to Extensis almost 2 years ago, and the transition was seamless during implementation.
