Free payroll got us started

The Australian roots show in a few workflows, and the per employee minimums add up faster than the headline suggests. The employee app gets used, which is half the battle, which is about the only positive.

Pros

The employee app gets used, which is half the battle.

Cons

The Australian roots show in a few workflows.

Free payroll got us started

The free payroll tier genuinely cost us nothing to start. Onboarding a new starter is smooth from offer to first payslip.

Pros

The free payroll tier genuinely cost us nothing to start.

Cons

All in one means good at lots rather than best at any one thing.

Broad, if not the deepest

Mixed. The employee app gets used, which is half the battle, but a dedicated payroll tool handles our odd cases better.

The benefits marketplace gave staff something they actually noticed. Only real gripe is that a dedicated payroll tool handles our odd cases better.
