Great experience. Cannot imagine running payroll through Paycor without the integrate Time and Attendance piece.
Pros
I love it how well it integrates with the payroll software. Makes processing payroll much more efficient than before when I had manually enter everyone's hours worked.
Cons
We use a biometric time clock which will give us some issues from time to time. Sometimes it is the sensitivity issue (it will ask to try again several times). The biggest issues we've had was disrupted synching or time punches not being recorded. Lucky, these are rare occurrences.

Overall, very positive experience. Website timeouts are an issue, but the ease of use is a good trade off.
Pros
I like the ease of use and the ability to onboard users. Very straightforward. Non-technical folks can use this product easily.

Integration options are somewhat limited. The site often times out and time cards have to be manually adjusted often.

Overall 6/10 experience. Customer Service wait times can sometimes be more than 15 min. The overall product is great.
Pros
The features of Paycor are great! It handles the HR functions we were hoping for. Love the automated onboarding process and ATS intergration.
Cons
Onboarding / implementation experience was less than favorable. Our IC was hardly available and I was only given a 30 min training for Payroll. There is a lot of self training using their training materials, needed for onboarding.
