Good for a small team

Payslips self serve so nobody emails me asking for one. Only real gripe is that corrections to a previous period are more awkward than they should be.

Fine until you need complexity

Mixed. Copilot caught a net pay that had moved 40 percent before I committed, but not enough depth if you run multiple pay frequencies.

Auto enrolment finally stopped worrying me

HMRC notices come straight into the pay run. That said, not enough depth if you run multiple pay frequencies and reporting is basic if your accountant wants detail.

Pros

HMRC notices come straight into the pay run.

Cons

Not enough depth if you run multiple pay frequencies.

Anomaly checking earns its keep

HMRC notices come straight into the pay run. That said, CIS subcontractors are not handled here, which confused us at first and the five employee inclusion means the real cost is higher than the headline.

Pros

HMRC notices come straight into the pay run.

Cons

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