This was the first payroll app I've ever used and I didn't have any trouble picking it up. It also made it easy to get my employees setup and paid. > > **Cons**: On occasion we do run into a problem where the taxes are not being taken out. This has only happened once but quickbooks support team was fast and extremely helpful, which helped us get the issue resolved. > > QuickBooks Payroll is easy to use and helps me manage our payroll with no trouble. Our company is small, so for the time being, we still use paper for the checks and pay stubs. The great thing is that we are in the process of switching everything to being digital. Overall, this software is great. The software is secure, and the set up is straightforward. I can clearly see how much money is going out weekly. ----- ### "Quickbooks Payroll the best for Small,Medium Company" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *13 February 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: This is friendly user accounting software. I like this very much. Very easy to learn even no background in Accounting. > > **Cons**: You can edit even the reports are already done. You should put all data and give more time. I dont want use quickbooks if my computer is MAC. > > QuickBooks Payroll is the first software that I used. Although I dont have a formal training but I became expert using this software. I trained some of my co worker for this software. ----- ### "Quickbooks Payroll" — 2.0/5 > **Melissa** | *5 March 2019* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: If you are looking for basic integration or use in job costing with TSheets than QB full-service payroll is for you. > > **Cons**: The inability to write checks the same day without being charged $100 without a two day lead time. I have learned a work around but I should be able to write a check to an employee without having to post-date it by two days. Though customer support is always willing to help, expect to spend 2-3 hours on the phone with them each time you call, and I am QB certified. > > If I had a choice I would use another payroll software and do journal entries for payroll items. I think it has gotten better over the years, however I think there is much available room for growth and improvement. ----- ### "QB Payroll" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 March 2026* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This software was easy to use. It was especially good when trying run a small retail business with only a few employees. > > **Cons**: I wouldn’t really say I had any cons with his software. I wouldn’t use it for a large company. Its more for small businesses. > > This software was easy to use. It was especially good when trying run a small retail business with only a few employees.

Easy to make changes. User friendly for employees entering their time. Great starter app. > > **Cons**: Did not do multi-state payroll. Does not do Certified Payroll - Davis Bacon Wages. Customer Support is only through an email. Can't connect with anyone on a call. > > Was a great easy to use program for starting out. The larger our company became we had to transition to something more substantial to handle Out of state Payrolls and Certified Payrolls. But for smaller companies - Works just fine. ----- Page: 1 / 40\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/5300/quickbooks-payroll?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/5300/quickbooks-payroll) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
