Great Service at a Great Price **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kristin M. | Director of Human Resources, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 22, 2024 **What do you like best about Paycor?** The best thing about Paycor is that they listen and try to accomodate the uniqueness of many industries--no matter how complicated. They also put you in control of your HRIS. No longer do I have to submit a ticket and wait for someone to answer or complete my task. I have found that reports are easier to run in Paycor once I figured out how to use them. If you don't know how to do something, Paycor has a wide knowledge base to help. If that does not help, don't worry. Their team of expert customer services reps are ready to assist. Finally Paycor is easy to use once you take the courses and work in the software. I am glad that we chose Paycor for our HRIS needs. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** The biggest challenge for us was that we changed to Paycor during implementation of new products. I would get comfortable with the "old" version for it to be replaced with a new version. Growing pains though. I do want the impersonate user back. This was a very nice feature that we no longer have since it allowed me to see what the employee was seeing and help them. Most of the time the issue is that they do not have settings correct. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** Paycor has made it easy to have everything in one place and an app that has the features. We are also able to see when employees are clocking in or out at a location other than our premisis. **Official Response from Kaitlyn Blount:** > Thank you for your positive review of Paycor. We appreciate your feedback about our commitment to accommodating various industries and putting you in control of your HRIS. We apologize for any challenges you faced during product implementation and the removal of the impersonate user feature. We value your feedback and will use it to improve our services. ### 2.

Great full service program **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jon W. | CFO, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 29, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** Easy payroll, excellent recruiting module, we have been very pleased with Paycor. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** Our general ledger integration sometimes fails and the GL team takes time to contact and hear back from. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** Paycor helps us keeps things organized ### 4. Macomb Group Paycor Review **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Chris W. | Outside Sales, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 21, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** I use it mostly for vacation requests, to pull paystubs, and print off a W2. It is extremely easy to use for these, the format of the website is intuitive. The dashboard is also helpful **What do you dislike about Paycor?** I wish I could put in multiple individual days off as requests, but this isn't that big of a deal really **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is enabling me to request days off and that is important to me ### 5. Overall very good. Sometimes it is kind of difficult to navigate, but overall good. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 22, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** Mostly easy to use and I find it particularly easy on the app. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** Not always the most accurate and sometimes doesn't track properly. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** Helps keep track of time for the organisation ### 6. Good System / Tax Compliance Issues **Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Brittany B. | Human Resources Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 23, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** The system itself was relatively easy to use and had a lot of features. The integration process was simple. I used the system weekly. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** The implementation team overall kind of dropped the ball when it came to adding new services. We were sold on the services and started paying for them after already having payroll but the implementation team never contacted us to add the new services after we met with our sales person. We got refunded after going back and forth with customer support on this. Customer support in general was only somewhat helpful but overall they were not very knowledgeable. They would transfer you over to someone else who you would then have to restate your question too before that person would transfer you again. The tax compliance also was not great as they had things setup improperly. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** It provided a system that would allow us to process payroll. ### 7. HR Generalist **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Arden E. | Human Resources Generalist, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 03, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** The portal for FAQ’s, info, & payroll syst **What do you dislike about Paycor?** The benefits advisor platform and set up team **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** I can’t think of any current business problems Paycor is solving other than fulfilling the above needs. ### 8. App seems to crash sometimes but overall beneficial **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kristy E. | Kindergarten Co-Teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 07, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** It is a convenient way to keep track of PTO. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** The app seems to crash, when I try to log in. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** employer PTO ### 9. Helpful **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Hannah W. | Middle School Teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 26, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** Paycor is a helpful way to track time off and see your available hours. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** I'm not familiar with all the features that are available to me. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** None ### 10. So many tools and so easy to use **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Macy B. | Recruiting Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 14, 2024 **What do you like best about Paycor?** I like that they truly listen to my feedback and implement whenever possible. I seen multiple updates that include feedback I have provided in the past. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** having to pay extra for a designinated account rep **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** We continue to add more of paycors features as our company is ready for them. We are a growing company so throwing a full blown HRIS system at them all at once would not be effective. We started out using them for benefits and payroll then added recruting then time and attendance, now we are rolling out paycor performance management. It's nice to be introducing new feathures to the company without our employees having to learn a whole new system or a whole new platform. Finally the best part is the systems talk to one another so as you add more fesatures you get more effective processes and accurate reporting. ### 11.

Easy to use, once you know how **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 01, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** Paycor is easy enought to use once I learned how to navigate the interface. Now I can quickly input and submit my hours, and bill them across different grants as needed. It is easy to input sick and/or vacation hours as well. I use Paycor every other week to input my hours. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** Initially, I had a difficult time remembering how to navigate to my timesheet/worksheet to enter hours. It takes a few steps. It would be nice if Paycor was integrated into a SSO system at work — I have to remember a different username and password. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** Paycor is how my company processes payroll. It lets me track my hours and get paid regularly. ### 13. I have had a good ecperience using Paycor **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** bljennison J. | Scorer (for Cognia, an educational testing company), Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 14, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** I especially like the way it keeps track of my work hours. It was quite easy to use. So far I've only used it for one two-week project, but I expect to use it again shortly as another project is coming up. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** Actually, I didn't experience any difficulties to speak of. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is a great system for payroll in particular; far superior to others I have used in the past. ### 14. Easy to navigate!!! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Facilities Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 22, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** Easy to punch in and out!!! Saves a lot of time, since i am always on the move! **What do you dislike about Paycor?** Not able to see the exact pay, until the day of pay day arrives!!! **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** At the current, I do not have a current problem needing solved! Paycor is doing great! IF Paycor could add the amount projected to be paid after the paid period window has ended!! ### 15. Review of Analytics w/Expert Connect **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Yvette S. | HRIS Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2024 **What do you like best about Paycor?** The reason for the "8" is that I'm not sure I could give any HCM a 10 - I've worked in MANY systems and they all have their own issues at times - however, I do think that Paycor offers the best UI. - Premium Support and the ability to reach someone almost all of the time is great (as well as having an 'assigned team'. - Payroll Module (though I don't process payroll currently, I have in the past and I really like how easy it is to process). **What do you dislike about Paycor?** Lots of 'system glitches' - As an ADMIN I probably see these more than others, but it's fairly frequent. Also the fact that the system itself is SO "SENSITIVE" - To have to clear cache/cookies/browser history at LEAST 1x every other week - so that the functionality isn't hindered - is a total nuisance!! Also, Reporting and Analytics don't always 'match up' (odd). Some functionality missing that creates more 'manual' work (specifically regarding Time Off Plans); **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** Benefits Open Enrollment issues - we have a GREAT Support Rep. That in addition to BSwift being such a ROBUST product - it's taken a LOT of manual work off of our plate. **Official Response from Kaitlyn Blount:** > Thanks for the detailed review! We appreciate your recognition of Paycor's user interface and support team. We'll share your comments regarding system stability, reporting accuracy, and time off functionality with our product team! ### 16.

It’s very easy to navigate. The customer service is always very responsive and helpful **What do you dislike about Paycor?** The user access settings are not very clear.

It is all available and easy to use in one place. ### 24.

Paycor Needs to Do Better **Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jean D. | Director of HR, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 24, 2024 **What do you like best about Paycor?** The ability to use the platform is easy for employees and managers **What do you dislike about Paycor?** What was shown in the sales process does not hold true when you are an actual client. The customer support is not helpful since some do not know the platform like they should and several times we helped educate the support person on how to use it. Reporting is also not easily accessible or customizable. The review process also does not align with our business needs. Implementation did not do everything they should have and we are still trying to clean up our payroll and benefits due to the lack of information implementation did not collect and port over. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** There was a request starting 02/01/2024 for an audit on benefits aligning with payroll and it was just now provided on 09/20/2024 - almost 8 months later. We seem to continualy have ongoing problems with reporting and scheduling these reports out. **Official Response from Kaitlyn Blount:** > Thank you for sharing your feedback about your experience with Paycor.

They have a great LMS program for Compliance, Development, and more. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** Sometimes, it can be hard to reach a person.

Using Paycor **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Scott W. | Technical & Operations Support, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 25, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** ease to the information and ease to navigate in the wesite **What do you dislike about Paycor?** that it is associated with my work email and I don't always have access to my work computer when it wants me to validate a login but that is not really Paycors fault **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** They have my vacation time paystubs and W2's ### 45. Paycor worth looking at **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Manufacturing | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 23, 2024 **What do you like best about Paycor?** When we first started with Paycor 2 1/2 years ago they were in a transition phase. Adding and merging services. Today the Paycor is well oiled machine with many different product offerings from basic payroll and time to onboarding and benefits adminstration. Paycor is constantly updating these services to keep up with the needs of business (resturants, manufacturing, etc.). The one feature I like is how they have different structures for differrent types of businesses and their payroll needs. It's not a one size fits all product. Paycor has a great training section for Adminstrators. They have live classes and pre-recorded trainings and even quick FAQ's if the user has a question on a product or service. I like attending the live classes that Paycor offers. These classes give the users a chance to ask questions. Sometimes the proctor can't answer the customer specific question but they are usually have great insight to the product or subject that is being discussed. Another feature I like is the Paycor Certifications. These are a set of training in a specific area (payroll, time management, etc.) that you can take at your own pace. They cover all the areas of the subject and even have little quizzes through out each presentation. Once you complete all the trainings you test your knowledge on the subject and get a certification in that subject. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** I think the thing I dislike about Paycor is you need to pay for premium service in order to get timely results. I am not saying the Customer Service is not responsive if you don't pay for the permium service. All of the Customer Service Representatives are very nice, knowledgeable, helpful people who try to resolve your issues in the first call. If they can't a work order is set up. There is where the service comes to a hault at times. With the premium service I seem to think the response as a whole is better. You have specific people to speak with regarding your issue. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** I think the biggest problem Paycor solves for us is the time and attendance. When I first started we were still using an old punch card system. This would take our Accounting Manager hours to do payroll and have to decifier punches. Then he woudl have to manually enter all the times into our old payroll system. Today we are set up on the time clock where our employees use their finger to punch in. This has made our payroll run smoother. We can easily look at each persons time, correct any problems and do payroll quicker because it is all in one system. **Official Response from Kaitlyn Blount:** > We appreciate your positive feedback! It's great to hear that Paycor has evolved into a comprehensive HR solution with diverse offerings. We will share your feedback with our team. ### 46.

Growing frustration **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 17, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** Paycor has a lot to offer but they want you to pay for every single thing. **What do you dislike about Paycor?** The support online chat is not helpful at all.

Terrible Product and Services **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Medical Practice | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2025 **What do you like best about Paycor?** Unfortunately would not recommend as there were limited areas of identifying what was best about Paycor **What do you dislike about Paycor?** Poor client services. Promises made that were never honored. Bill for services that were never provided. Limited information provided up front which made it difficult to understand what was being provided. Platform is outdated and does not provide a user friendly experience. Do not have a dedicated representative who assists with needs and supports. Failed to pay taxes on behalf of the organization and blamed the organization for it. Very rude and abrasive staff. **What problems is Paycor solving and how is that benefiting you?** Paycor has not been able to resolve any problems and when bringing up problems that were being experienced they failed to address and ultimately left administration hanging. ### 50.
