Hear from from a client who made the switch to Paylocity
Polywood saves 2,000+ hours per year through automation and has achieved 93% organic adoption of the mobile app.

Why Do Companies Prefer Paylocity over Paycor?
Increased Engagement
Employee engagement is the key to retention. Community, Paylocity's workplace social hub, features communication and collaboration tools employees actually want to use, like chat, video, and peer recognition. Within six months of implementing Community, clients saw peer recognition increase by more than 500%.
Paycor does not have employee recognition or collaboration features.
Unmatched Flexibility
Paylocity believes in providing a seamless experience no matter what systems you use. Our single platform provides end-to-end HR capabilities paired with flexibility to connect to other business systems. Our Marketplace offers integrations with 350+ complimentary business systems, and our open APIs provide even more flexibility.
Although Paycor has a marketplace, Paylocity offers nearly twice as many integrations.
Continuous Product Innovation
Because Paylocity has developed an end-to-end solution from the ground up, we continually enhance and expand our platform to meet your evolving needs. Demonstrating our commitment to solving today's and tomorrow’s HR challenges, we invest 10-15% annually in research and development.
Paylocity invests nearly 3x in R&D compared to Paycor, according to FY22 fiscal results. Paycor has relied on acquisitions and partnerships to fill some core HR needs rather than build their own solutions.
Superior Service
Your success begins right from the start. We work to understand your company’s unique needs and tailor our easy-to-use solutions to deliver the performance you expect. 90% of calls are answered in a minute or less — so you can get the support you need to stay focused on your business.
Users rate Paylocity higher than Paycor for Quality of Support on G2.
