OnPay vs. Tempus Central

I'd say if you had someone who wasn't educated on how Payroll should be setup and function OnPay is less ideal. But even then you've got things so well setup and cost efficient, they could afford to put some focus on training. In my mind I imagine OnPay is the best solution for small to mid, even early large, company Payroll processing. We're a small company so I'm unaware of the options provided to streamline importing of large group payrolls, but that might be an area where the interface could provide challenges.

If you are a manufacturing company, managing a few hundred blue-collar workers, you definitely need Tempus Central. This is the cheapest option we found so far, with all the required features. If you are a small company with fairly simple attendance policy settings and not many shifts, you can avoid using Tempus Central.

• It is easy to add new employees.
• It is easy to inactivate employees who leave the company.
• All quarterly and annual reports are completed and filed on a timely basis.
• Employees have direct online access to their paycheck as well as their W-2.

• Gives us flexibility to set up attendance policy for various types of people
• It manages our Night shifts and Over Time policy very well
• It integrates well with the Biometric Devices, HRMS and Payroll system

• I would like to enter some payroll information in advance of the current payroll runs
• Adding and changing administrators was a bit cumbersome and took several days
• It works fine for a small number of people being paid if they can be seen on one screen but it might be cumbersome with more than about 10 people. Probably needs a better or different procedure with more people.

• I would like to see a few more analytics in the software

We have used OnPay for a few years now and we do continue to renew our annual use of OnPay. We are only a small organization and although OnPay provides a lot of additional services that larger organizations might ind useful, OnPay still meets our limited requirements of running bi-weekly payroll and submitting our quarterly state and federal tax documents, and at a price that we still find affordable.

OnPay is very easy to use. The computer interface is setup very well. You can quickly add people, enter your Payroll, print reports, etc. If your Payroll doesn't change from pay period to pay period (example, salaried employees) it takes mere seconds to enter in your Payroll.

I've only had to call a couple of times, and each time the customer service rep is extremely thorough and helpful. I've never had the experience, like I do with some other companies, of feeling stressed or irritated with the reps. They are competent, educated, and easily walk me through the system

Easy to implement and easy to convert any other payroll reports to the OnPay system when making the switch

OnPay is tremendously less expensive and technically superior to Quickbooks in my opinion. OnPay is less expensive and offered the ease of managing a restaurant payroll that was better in my opinion than When I Work. My experience when evaluating all of the payroll products that I felt the company could afford was that OnPay had a superior staff of professionals who knew their product and could explain how to use it most clearly.

We selected Tempus Central for its flexibility and amount of policy setups we could do. Our complex requirements especially Night Shift management were not available with the most readily available HRMS. Hence, we move forward with Attendance Management first and maybe then we will move towards implementing an HRMS on our premises.

OnPay works.
