Fine until you need complexity

Copilot caught a net pay that had moved 40 percent before I committed, and auto enrolment assessment happens without me remembering to do it. No complaints so far.

Pros

Copilot caught a net pay that had moved 40 percent before I committed.

Cons

Reporting is basic if your accountant wants detail.

Pay run takes ten minutes now

HMRC notices come straight into the pay run. Auto enrolment assessment happens without me remembering to do it.

Pros

HMRC notices come straight into the pay run.

Cons

CIS subcontractors are not handled here, which confused us at first.

Anomaly checking earns its keep

No payroll training and I have never missed an RTI deadline. Only real gripe is that the five employee inclusion means the real cost is higher than the headline.

Pros
