Free payroll got us started

Onboarding a new starter is smooth from offer to first payslip, and the employee app gets used, which is half the battle. A dedicated payroll tool handles our odd cases better, but we live with it.

Free payroll got us started

The benefits marketplace gave staff something they actually noticed. Only real gripe is that all in one means good at lots rather than best at any one thing.

One platform replaced three

Onboarding a new starter is smooth from offer to first payslip. Only real gripe is that the Australian roots show in a few workflows.
