a3EQUIPONetchex
Considered Both Products
a3EQUIPO
Chose a3EQUIPO
Pricing was the main reason we went for a3EQUIPO. As our requirements was for basic functionality only which is why we chose it. It also requires a very small team to manage the entire Human Resources Department which was also a concern for us. a3EQUIPO has not disappointed. …
Chose a3EQUIPO
First, of all, it’s cost-efficient. Secondly, it increases your team’s efficiency. Third, it requires [fewer] resources to manage a larger team.
Netchex
Chose Netchex
We were looking for a company to help us manange ObamaCare (ACA) and Quickbooks Payroll did not offer any options. ADP did not have the extensive program that Netchex offered. ADP was also much more expensive. Netchex ACA Central was the best product on the market and the best …
Chose Netchex
By far Netchex has been the best.
Chose Netchex
I like that they are not so big that they ignore the small customers. They are also reasonably priced. Their support is excellent, I had worked with ADP in a prior position, and we did not have the same kind of support
Chose Netchex
Netchex runs smoother and is more efficient than Paychex. It also has fewer technical difficulties.
Chose Netchex
Netchex customer services and access to create an excel report the way I want it was not offered by the other products in the past.
Chose Netchex
We have used Paychex and ADP. The customer service with Paychex was horrible. I was having an issue with our HSAs at the beginning of the year and asked them to fix it. Our last payroll with them was March 25th and that issue was still not resolved. ADPs customer service …
Chose Netchex
Netchex is much more user-friendly and much more of a robust payroll system. Netchex also takes care of everything regarding employees and their entire time with the company, but GP is much more limited.
Chose Netchex
I would rank Netchex above the other products I’ve used based on features, user-friendliness, and customer service.
Chose Netchex
We used Corporate Payroll prior to Netchex. Corporate Payroll has all the functionality of Netchex but it's not all in one place like Netchex.
Chose Netchex
The biggest difference I see between Netchex and our previous vendor is customer service. Our previous vendor would take days, if not weeks, to respond with an inquiry. Netchex generally does within 24 hours via email or immediately if you call. The second biggest difference …
Chose Netchex
We used Paychex prior to switching to Netchex. We decided to make the move because of an impending integration that Netchex had planned with our onboarding system, Workbright. That integration has happened, but not in the way that we had hoped so we are not taking advantage of …
Chose Netchex

Reporting features available in Netchex far exceed those we were able to get from optimum.

Customer service from Netchex is light years ahead of the competition!!

I would recommend it to my colleagues because it makes their lives a lot easier. It’s not just software it’s an opportunity to show your potential to your company and to your management. Since the day I started, it helps me a lot in doing multiple tasks in just a few clicks

I LOVE THE EASE OF THE TIMECLOCK AND PULLING INTO PAYROLL. PREVIOUSLY I HAD TIME CLOCK ON MY DMS AND PAYROLL THROUGH PAYCHEX. IT DIDNT INTEGRATE SO I HAD TO KEY IN EVERY SINGLE TIMESHEET....THIS IS SO MUCH EASIER. ONLY THING I DONT LIKE IS ONCE YOU START PAYROLL IF SOMEONE TIME HAS TO BE FIXED YOU HAVE TO DELETE AND START OVER. THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE HAD WHICH IS NOT A BIG PROBLEM.

Pros
  • It’s perfact in attendance management system.
  • It’s one of the most favourite feature is the way of calculating salaries
  • It’s good in its team managemt section

  • My Netchex Service Team is very responsive and friendly. They are willing and able to spend the amount of time needed on one call to troubleshoot most problems or answer questions.
  • Their recent updates to the employee dashboard have been well-received by our seasonal team. Employees are able to quickly find what they are looking for which has minimized the amount of requests that my team receives regarding questions on pay or updating personal information.
  • Online W-2 forms have been a game-changer for us since moving to Netchex. Our staff tend to move around a lot and most do not get the mailed copy of their W-2. The electronic consent has saved me hours and hours of time.

Cons
  • Its interface is bit complex at times, may take some time to get used to.
  • It is still in beta version so may take time to finalize all features.

  • Support needs to be available more times than just normal business hours.
  • Tax support is basically non-existent. This seems that it should be TOP NOTCH.
  • Some of the functionality of the Netchex program could be tweaked. It is not a keyboard friendly program at all. Must mouse your way through. When the program times out, it takes 2 to 3 screens before it really logs you out.
  • When submitting from Netchex to Dealertrack, it would be nice to show the payroll # or payroll date that has been submitted. Currently once you hit submit, the screen reverts back to the last successful payroll submit. This process is just a bit confusing, especially for new users.

The first line CE team is phenomenal. They are helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. We have had less luck with the responsiveness of the tax department. However, their response time has improved drastically over the past year.

  • Associates can easily access their data and make changes to things like their address and direct deposit, saving manager time to focus on more critical tasks within the organization
  • NetRecruitier has one site that can be posted to multiple job boards with one applicant tracking system
  • Electronic Onboarding allows us to get information out to the new employee so we can start with expectations on their first day and they know what to expect.
