Customer service is everything
It's been an excellent experience.
Pros
The best part of Ceridian - other than the ease of use - is the customer service. Especially in the early days of using Ceridian, every time I had questions the customer service team was patient and very knowledgeable. In this day and age when good service is hard to find from even the largest company I appreciate knowing that any issue I have will be dealt with painlessly and quickly.
Cons
No cons. It works as needed. I've not had any issues with the software.

Payroll made easy
This has allowed my department to run efficiently. Powerpay is like a payroll person in my pocket.
Pros
I love the ease of using this program. The screens are user friendly and everything is made as simple as possible. I would be lost without the calendar reminders for processing deadlines. These have made my life much less stressful.
Cons
The only thing I would change is the ability to have more than one pay period open at a time. I understand why this is not allowed but in the case of a small company with infrequent changes, it would be helpful to work ahead sometimes.

PowerPay Review
Overall, we enjoy PowerPay and it meets our needs of a payroll software! Would recommend it
Pros
Easy to use
Great customer service
Great year end webinars
Cons
To find simple employee information in their profile, a new pay period always has to be created which sometimes is not feasible if we don't want to set up a new pay period at that time
The payroll preview in Insync was better, in my opinon
Response from Ceridian
Hi Lindsey - Thank you for your feedback! We actually now have the functionality to access employee info without having to be in a pay period. We would be happy to walk you through that! Glad to hear that Powerpay is meeting your payroll needs!
Saves Manual Payroll Manipulation
I really appreciate the ability to get help on all payroll-related questions from a real, live person!!
Pros
The ability to automate payroll processes and make any required changes easily. The response to current government programs including information and built in customization, such as the new T4 earnings reporting this year-end: earnings for each CERB pay period are automatically generated for each employee. I also appreciate the year-end training provided each year, which covers legislative changes and general "how tos".
Cons
I honestly don't feel there are any features lacking that I would look for or have needed.
Response from Ceridian
Hi Mary - We are glad to hear that Powerpay makes processing payroll easier for you! Thank you for providing your feedback.

Excellent, highly recommend this product.
Pros
Ease of use makes payroll inputting fast and convenient. When I do run into a problem the Powerpay help desk is very helpful, knowledgeable and walks you through each step.
Cons
I sometimes run into difficulty navigating the system when inputting information. However the Powerpay helpdesk is always there to help.

Small Business Life Saver
As a business owner, it was a new process for us to switch from subcontractors to employees. PowerPay took the fear of transitioning by ensuring that we were set-up for success, eradicating the guesswork of remittances and year-end reports. When you first join PowerPay, you are assigned a personal assistant to orientate you, which was a HUGE asset (since I am not one to sit and read through manuals). Once I learned the system, it has been straightforward for regular payroll. However, my FAVORITE part about PowerPay is their customer service. I can ask any question and I ALWAYS get friendly, patient assistance.
Pros
Setting up a regular pay run, printing reports, accessing self-service is all great. We also appreciate the online tutorial videos.
Cons
I am not highly knowledgeable in payroll codes (since I am a small business owner thrust into this by necessity!), so I need assistance when setting up special cases (ex. a pay advance, ROE, etc). But that is mainly an expertise issue on my behalf, not a software concern.
powerpay use
is good if you get training from another user you can do it
Pros
the call support team is great and they know how to help you always
Cons
is not easy to use if you don't know from before

Powerpay
I have used Ceridian Insync prior to this, and found that for a smaller payroll, Powerpay is a much easier program to work with.
Pros
Payroll preview is quick to receive. Tutorials are informative.
Cons
Lack of user changes allowed to reporting setup, ie. adjusting the payroll register layout.
Inability to send a direct email within the payroll program.

Ease of Use!
Amazing for payroll. So easy to use and easy to teach someone else to use if needed!
Pros
The reporting process is awesome. Very easy to gain all the information needed on a monthly basis!
Cons
I find the directions could be a little more detailed. I found them hard to follow sometimes
Response from Ceridian
Hi Katie - Thank you so much for your feedback!
Easy to use
when I came on board with this company, no one can really teach me how to use the system. I was able to figure it out in some areas, and some I had to call in and get the direction. But all those experiences are effortless. That's how I came to love Powerpay
Pros
It is very easy to use. Training that I got from Powerpay was seamless, the associates are very knowledgeable
Cons
It is not easy to pull reports. If you find a report there's no filter. You have to extract the whole thing and filter it yourself that way
Response from Ceridian

We have had a positive experience with Powerpay. The system and the customer support has and continues to exceed our expectations. Anyone who is new to payroll should not hesitate to use Powerpay. The software can be learned quickly. The software's ease of use coupled with the robust customer support will make for a successful outcome.
