Why You Should Choose Inova Over Paycor

Inova is a unified HCM Platform, but ADP is built on a collection of acquisitions and 3rd party applications to offer functionality. ADP’s timekeeping system is a separate system, which means they are not able to print time punches on paystubs.
Inova has a dedicated Account Manager assigned to each client backed by a team of professionals. According to G2, Paycor’s dedicated support rep model has evolved to a “small support team” that functions more like a call center.
Inova HCM reporting capabilities are extensive, while Paycor’s native reporting and analytics are limited and do not allow for cross-module reporting.
Inova’s breadth of services includes HCM technology, but also additional products and services, such as HR Outsourcing and Group Benefit Services and Administration. Paycor does not provide such services.

Questions to Ask Yourself

When Considering Paycor

Do you require cross-module reporting? (for example, the ability to pull reports that include both payroll and time data)

Paycor’s third-party applications limit cross-module reporting capabilities.

Paycor does not offer group health benefits, 401(k), or HR outsourcing.

Paycor’s clients do not have a dedicated Account Manager. Reviews have reported that getting support (especially via email) has been extremely difficult. There have been numerous complaints about clients receiving no response over email and hold times that sometimes last over an hour.

Questions to ask

When Choosing A Payroll Provider

What is a payroll provider?

A payroll provider is a company that assists businesses in processing employee payrolls, managing taxes, ensuring accurate and timely employee payments, and aiding with tax forms and regulatory compliance.

A suitable payroll provider for a growing company should be able to handle an increasing number of employees, offer scalable service plans, ensure ongoing compliance with complex tax laws, integrate with other business systems, provide detailed reporting, and support payroll across multiple locations. This adaptability ensures that as your business expands, your payroll processes remain efficient and compliant.

The cost of payroll services varies, typically starting from $20-$50 per month plus a per-employee fee, with prices increasing for additional features like HR support. Exact costs depend on employee numbers, payroll complexity, and service scope, with potential extra charges for setup and year-end filings.

To determine if a payroll provider understands the needs of your industry, assess their experience with similar businesses, their ability to handle industry-specific regulations, and their track record of compliance and adaptability to unique payroll requirements.

When selecting a payroll provider, check if their system supports integrations with your existing business software, such as accounting, HR, and time tracking applications, to ensure seamless data flow and process efficiency.
