In their words
getting new employees set up has become one of those small tasks that takes our time
every time a payment is taken we have to manually mark the job as paid in Jobber, select "Credit/Debit Card", and then enter the Zettle receipt number for reference.
I was still in the office at midnight trying to match invoices and fix payroll stuff from three different apps.
they messed up our state tax filings for three months in a row and u cannot get a human on the phone to fix it
We are a huge company and manually doing this is a complete time suck.
I really don’t want to have to do all these steps manually and risk forgetting

Payroll admins and small business owners
Where they talk
- r/Payroll
- r/smallbusiness
- r/workday
- r/Accounting
- r/humanresources
- r/Nanny
- r/smallbusinessowner
- r/excel
Tools they use today
- Excel
- Gusto
- QuickBooks
- Workday
- ADP
- Jobber
- Rippling
- Housecall Pro
Why those fall short
- comp tables and budget approvals are gross; nobody models net take-home
- payroll service covers salary but not mileage reimbursement
- customers get pushed into another company's product
- Neither system owns reconciliation; unmapped deductions persist and support deflects
- Refresh takes 10 minutes; transformations inefficient; self-taught bad habits
