Happy after 2 years but the feature gaps are taking long to close. There is no proper costing split if staff work across departments.
Pros
Legislative updates happen automatically in the cloud; runs anywhere with a browser
Cons
Complex pay structures do not fit well

Fine for five staff, frustrating at fifty. We needed a costing report the system simply cannot produce.
Cons
Migration from desktop lost history detail

We like it, though we keep a spreadsheet next to it for the odd calculations. There is no proper costing split if staff work across departments. It posts the salary journals through to Sage Accounting automatically.
Pros
Great entry price for micro employers
Cons
No department cost splitting

Coming from desktop payroll, some things are better and a few are missing. Complex pay structures with multiple rate tables just do not fit. You cannot customise the payslip layout much at all.
Pros
Runs anywhere with a browser; unlimited companies and users on every tier
Cons
Bulk employee changes are tedious

It handles the common cases beautifully and the uncommon ones not at all. There is no proper costing split if staff work across departments.
Pros
Clear headcount based pricing in rand
Cons
Ticket support can take days

Easy to run, harder to get deep information out of. The ACB file loads into FNB business banking and the whole run pays in one batch.
Pros
Clear headcount based pricing in rand; unlimited companies and users on every tier
Cons
Bulk employee changes are tedious

I ran December pay from a guest house in the Berg, that flexibility is real. The ACB file loads into Absa business banking and the whole run pays in one batch.
Pros
Clear headcount based pricing in rand; legislative updates happen automatically in the cloud

Good simple product, just know its limits before committing. Complex pay structures with multiple rate tables just do not fit. Support is friendly but tickets beyond the basics take a few days.
Cons
Reporting beyond the standard set is thin

Fine for five staff, frustrating at fifty.
Cons
Costs climb as headcount grows

Moved off desktop payroll in October and the year end was suddenly a non event. Adding a new employee is a ten minute form and they are in the next run.
Pros
Real time payslip calculations
Cons
Ticket support can take days

Everything happens in the browser so office, home or client site makes no difference. IRP5s at year end were generated without me touching a settings screen. Payroll went from monthly dread to a fifteen minute task.
Pros
Legislative updates happen automatically in the cloud
Karabo Du Plessis
HR Administrator

We are 130 people and the monthly cost is less than a round of coffees. PAYE, UIF and SDL are always current with SARS because the cloud updates itself.
Pros
IRP5s generated at year end; unlimited companies and users on every tier

Mostly a pleasure, occasionally a shrug. Reporting is thin, beyond the standard set you export and build it yourself. You cannot customise the payslip layout much at all.
Pros
Great entry price for micro employers; legislative updates happen automatically in the cloud
Cons
Payslip layout is barely customisable
Thabo Miller

Tax changes land in the product overnight and I never install anything. You can preview a payslip before finalising, mistakes get caught early. Adding a new employee is a ten minute form and they are in the next run.
Pros
Automatic UIF declarations; journals post to Sage Accounting
Cons
Session timeouts during long captures

We like it, though we keep a spreadsheet next to it for the odd calculations. Reporting is thin, beyond the standard set you export and build it yourself. Support chat actually solved my ETI question the same morning.
Cons
Ticket support can take days

The real time calculation shows me the net pay effect before I commit anything. New tax year opened by itself, correct tables, zero downloads. The tiers by headcount are clear, you always know what growth will cost. I recommend it to every small employer who asks me.
Pros
Real time payslip calculations; guided pay run anyone can follow
Cons
Payslip layout is barely customisable
Jerome Mthembu
Accountant

Our accountant has her own access, checks the run monthly and we never email files around. IRP5s at year end were generated without me touching a settings screen. Perfect for bookkeepers with a stable of small clients.
Pros
Real time payslip calculations; automatic UIF declarations
Cons
Session timeouts during long captures

Good simple product, just know its limits before committing. You cannot customise the payslip layout much at all. The leave module means my staff request days in the app, not in the passage.
Pros
Leave management included
Cons
Reporting beyond the standard set is thin

Easy to run, harder to get deep information out of. Bulk changes across many employees still mean editing one at a time. Adding a new employee is a ten minute form and they are in the next run.
Pros
Legislative updates happen automatically in the cloud
Cons
Payslip layout is barely customisable

Operations Manager

As a first time employer I was terrified of PAYE and this held my hand through it. The audit trail shows who changed what, useful with two admins. Cannot imagine going back to desktop payroll now.
Pros
Weekly and monthly cycles side by side
