> 
> **Cons**: Everything is great on the platform\! We haven’t had any issues
>

### "Affordable Payroll / HR / workforce Solution but don't expect much beyond that" — 2.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *29 July 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a fully integrated Payroll/HR / Workforce management tool for smb/corporate or book keepers or accountants. It also has other HRIS / or ATS add ons as well as it tries to be jack of all trades.
> 
> **Cons**: I think Payroll should stick to being a Payroll process provider and beyond that the other add ons are like any other tool on the market like Bamboo OR Workable OR Rippling but it's not written the software in a very sophisticated way that you feel that they are an expert in other fields beyond just running payrolls.
> 
> Been using payworks for a long time, it is a simple tool for payroll, time off, vacation management and if you add the other components to it, it will still works but it's just not very fully integrated compare to ripping or other total HRIS / Payroll solutions on the market. Security would be a concern as it doesn't seem like the company or the product is fully innovative OR secure compare to a Deel OR Namely if you compare it to other competitors on the market.  Looking at the history of the company, it's been around for a long time so it's not a startup and will probably not have new features release down the road.

### "Our first year of payworks" — 5.0/5

> **Brenda** | *18 December 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We signed up January of this year.&#10;The more I have used the system, the easier to navigate it has become.
> 
> **Cons**: Some things are very convoluted,  hard to find.&#10;Having them easier to find and use would be helpful. ex doing ROE, &#10;I was a MOneris costomer before, you completed these right from there employee profile.&#10;Generating T4's are done with the last payperiod if you want...  not sure how this is done with payworks but am betting it is more steps...
> 
> so far so good,.. just a huge learning curve. It is totally different from Moneris, some things are not as clear or easy. I found once I do them a few times they become easier. Changing from one payroll company to Payworks was seamless.
