## Reviews

### "Sage Payroll - User Friendly" — 5.0/5

> **Helen** | *30 April 2024* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Sage Payroll is user friendly, can generate employee cost reports for the workplace and has excellent webinars for when new legislation is introduced.
> 
> **Cons**: I have been using Sage Payroll for over 17 years and have not come across anything that I would change on it.

### "EASY TO USE BUT LACKS FUNTIONALITY OF DESKTOP VERSION" — 5.0/5

> **JAMES** | *30 April 2024* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: QUICK AND EASY TO PROCESS THE PAYROLL EACH WEEK OR MONTH
> 
> **Cons**: NOT ABLE TO PRODUCE HISTORICAL REPORTS SUMMERISING THE PAYROLL FIGURES IN ORDER TO PREPARE ANNUAL ACCOUNTS. FPS IS SUBMITTED BEFORE P45 CAN BE PRINTED SO LEAVERS HAVE TO BE SUBMITTED WITH RTI REPORT FOR THE NEXT PERIOD. NO LINK TO HMRC WEBSITE TO AUTOMATICALLY UPDATE TAX CODE CHANGES FOR EMPLOYEES
> 
> VERY QUICK AND EAY TO USE BUT LACKS THE FUNCTIONALLITY OF THE DESKTOP VERSION OF SAGE PAYROLL

-----

### "Decent software, bit outdated" — 3.0/5

> **Monika** | *27 August 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: You could bespoke a lot of features within Sage Payroll.
> 
> **Cons**: Overly detailed, outdated look, quite clunky.
> 
> Each time I ran payroll it seemed it took me ages to do so, not the payroll itself but getting the reports out to link them with other financial software.

-----

### "Sage Payroll" — 5.0/5

> **ELAINE** | *8 May 2024* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Reporting is great
Main menu with employee details is super helpful
> 
> **Cons**: The support in SA is lacking. The Consultants are not able to assist with queries or does not come back to one.
> 
> Great system to use but the support aspect in SA is lacking management and we have to make use of a third party to assist with issues which costs us more money.
