Hello Alex:

A few of the seemingly more economical payroll processing firms I've encountered are:  Paychex, Inc.  and Paylocity.  My organization currently uses Paylocity.  They're cheap and basic.  As far as basics go, the price we pay for cheap is limited functionality.  Paylocity has not been able to accomodate our chart of accounts structure.  As such, we needed to have a workaround.  Paylocity provides reliable basic services.  A firm that seems to do ok with price and functionality is Paychex, Inc.  I have not actually worked with this firm.  However, I've had enough discussions  to get a sense that it might be worthwhile to talk to this firm.

I thought Paychex and Paylocity might pay more attention to firms with 100 plus employees.  They are accustomed to and they actively market to smaller companies.  Larger concerns like ADP seems to want to market to small firms but, once they get a small firm, their service doesn't seem to be on par with their service to their larger clients.

Best Regards

About a year ago I've started to use Gusto, which I liked for small business, but they raised prices and we moved to Zenefits that added payroll to their benefits core services.  Both economical, Gusto is my 1t choice, Zenefits is more cost efective, but support is a little limited.

There are three main companies - ADP Totalsource, Insperity and TriNet. They all provide payroll and benefits together. They infact become your HR too and help avoid legal issues with employees as they guide the clients.

For only payroll, I had demo with iSolved and find it very comprehensive.

I know higher level folks at All these companies and would be happy to introduce you if you need.

Warm Regards

Hello Alex, would recommend Gusto to someone who started a sole practising consulting company (S company)? She does have accounting background but totally unfamiliar with US payroll and tax requirements.

Thanks

InfiniSource has a great product, iSolved.  I have implemented it in two companies with great success.  It is payroll processing, as well as time keeping, benefits, onboarding, and full taxes / reporting.

We switched to Paylocity 1  1/2 years ago and have had very few issues....like the self-service new employee onboarding and other self-service features.  Cost is very competitive.
