Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Sequoia One as our PEO for US-based employees. Sequoia One is their app that you use to interact with the PEO for payroll, benefits, policies, etc. When we were selecting a PEO we also looked at the web-based and mobile applications from both a user and administrator perspective. While we liked Sequoia One app less than that of its competitor, we selected Sequoia One as our PEO for other reasons

Pros

  • Information is centrally located, albeit very hard to find at times
  • Better from a user perspective than administrator

Cons

  • Integration of Prism is going way too slowly.
  • Information is often too hard to find as an administrator. That shouldn't be

Return on Investment

  • It has made employment of US-based employees very easy
  • Great customer service that reduces the number if cycles to handle basic tasks
  • The app is improving steadily. Just not fast enough.
