Hear from from a client who made the switch to Paylocity
Blue Ridge has seen 2x more peer recognition and 85% of employees using Community regularly, keeping the team informed and engaged.
“We have used Paycom for several years, and Paylocity is a much more organized and ‘clean’ platform with more advanced features.”
Employee engagement is the key to retention. Paylocity's Community social hub features communication and collaboration tools employees actually want to use, like chat, video, and peer recognition. Within six months of implementing Community, clients saw peer recognition increase by more than 500%.
Paycom’s employee experience feature, BETI, pushes manual HR processes to your employees. BETI doesn’t provide valuable experiences such as recognition, chat, or collaboration.
Demonstrating our commitment to solving today's and tomorrow’s HR challenges, we invest 10-15% annually in research and development. We are consistently first to market with modern employee experience features like collaboration, native video, rewards and recognition, and generative AI.
Paycom invests a similar proportion of revenue in R&D, but they lack truly employee-focused capabilities such as video, rewards and recognition, and generative AI.
With Paylocity you get the best of both worlds — our single-platform software suite provides end-to-end HR capabilities paired with flexibility to connect to other business systems. Our Marketplace offers integrations with 350+ complimentary business systems, and our open APIs provide even more flexibility.
