AxisCare Home Care Software vs. Paylocity

If you like data and analyzing data then Axiscare is well suited for your outfit. If you have office staff members that are not very computer-savvy or interested in deeper dives into numbers then my belief is that AxisCare may not be the best software for you, as it may seem like too much information. However, AxisCare's support teams have been helpful to us and I am sure they could help navigate any difficulties an agency may have.

Paylocity appears to be well-suited for startups to large businesses. As with any product, finding the right price point for the services provided is the challenge. Always remember that one small company that would really appreciate the "benefits essentials" or some other part of the platform but can't afford them right now, may be the ones to get you that large company through word of mouth...IF they had been able to experience that part of the product and refer it to others.

• Providing the scheduling team with the tools to share client/ visit information with the caregivers.
• Documentation. From client visit notes to managerial notes about an employee to keeping track of chat conversations. These are all great ways to hold people in the company accountable.
• Helps me keep a "To Do List" better known as the Tasks Dashboard. I can write quick notes of what I need to do or I can assign the task to someone in the company.
• The ability to customize reports is very helpful. I am looking forward to all of the legacy reports getting updated to the more customizable form.
• The ability to auto-run and share reports is extremely helpful. I don't have to remember every day, week, or month to run the report. All I need to do is check my email and AxisCare Home Care Software sends me a notice telling me my report is done.
• The ability to create our own forms is convenient. AxisCare Home Care Software will also build a form for us if we request it and pay a small fee.
• AxisCare Home Care Software is integrated with different companies that provide services in a way to streamline it instead of having to find some program or company that is outside of AxisCare Home Care Software. For example, we now use AxisCare Home Care Software to complete all of our Background Checks.

• Payroll is made pretty easy. I love that we have the ability to log into payroll, we just upload the information from commissions, things like that where there are exceptions to a regular payroll run. It may make it very easy to do that, just a quick upload. Additionally, when we're in the payroll grid, it gives us the ability to just make quick changes to people's pay or their tax schedule, tax withholdings, things like that without having to go through a lot of different screens. It's just very easy to access just for the click of a button. Love that.
• We talked about performance reviews, talked about payroll with benefits administration, it allows us to utilize EDI feeds with our benefit vendors so it creates a seamless, but we just enter the information into Paylocity and then it seamlessly provides that information to our vendors. That's been really helpful. And adjusting benefits is also very easy within Paylocity. I love the recent edition of compensation analysis information, so I'm able to go into the compensation module and look for jobs that are similar to a job title at our company. I can enter the job description, I give them what state that the person or the job is in, and it pops out compensation data. It gives me different options, so titles that might be similar. So if there's not something that's an exact fit, I'm able to find something really, really close. It's been a huge upgrade because before that I was having to use a different vendor and paying $400 per job and now it's significantly less expensive to Paylocity and I'm still getting great quality data. It's been very helpful.

• Updating all reports, the reports that are still old are really hard to use and the custom reports aren't nearly as functional as the others.
• Medicaid Mileage should be added in as a part of the authorizations so that we can track the available miles just like we do the hours.
• Ability to text or message contacts or the responsible parties of leads - just one way messaging but bc the first steps of acquiring a lead are email / text / call it makes it hard to complete that in a secure way. If we had to text normally we open ourselves up for HIPAA concerns but we could one way text instead to get in touch with the lead and know that we are staying compliant.
• Admin app should be fully functional for medications and MARs - you can't manage any of that from the Admin app and have to use the website instead. This is hard to work with when in the field or updating a med list while on an assessment with a client.
• Offline mode on the App - both CG and Admin app have glitchy offline mode that makes it kinda useless at times.

• We have had lots of year end issues specifically with Partners W2's.
• We had an accrual issue that was causing 2 additional vacation/sick accruals per year.
• When updating accruals- the paperwork to do so is confusing at times. I feel there is little support to assist you in filling the paperwork correctly to reflect what you need the accrual to actually do.

AxisCare Home Care Software has a lot of features that are helpful in the roles we play at [...] Arkansas. The support is fantastic! I do wish there were more features for users to store documents for themselves such as weekly task lists and monitoring forms that they would normally email to me or upload to Google Drive for storage. This however isn't something that would cause our company to switch software programs.

There are several technical issues we have experienced this past year with the employee onboarding process that we are still waiting to have resolved. Overall our experience with Paylocity has been positive, and we love how user-friendly and easy to navigate the system is. It has made all of our HR processes much more streamlined and efficient.

Once use to the system Axis Care is fairly easy to navigate and is a pretty clean system. I wish the main profile page for clients and caregivers were laid out more similarly (Ex: Classes for a caregiver are on the main profile page but the classes for clients are hiding under their billing tab. Another example is there's a Notes tab for clients but everything in that tab for a caregiver is located on their profile page) It would make it easier for new user training and knowledge retention if they were located in the same spots

I would give it that overall rating because we implemented in 2023 and so although that may feel like a lot of time, it still is, we still have a lot to learn and so I'm optimistic that as we learn more that rating will increase.

We had no issues with the availability of the system, it has been reliable so far, the only issues were geo location at some point due to staff being in rural areas, geo location will fail to pick up.

Over the last 3 years, we've only had one major service issue that rendered Airbase unusable for us for about 24 hours. That said, they navigated the SVB bank crisis very well and made sure funds were available during that time.

We had some minor hiccups throughout the year but they have all been fixable. Paylocity integrates well with our 401k provider, Principal, and our benefits, OneDigital. It makes it simple to house everything and have it all connected. It doesn't slow anything down to have Principal integrated. It makes it more efficient

They have been incredibly helpful and willing to assist with every situation we have encountered. There have been some instances where they were unsure of what the issue we were experiencing was or how to fix it. They attempted though and were very responsive.

It is very hard to get answers to your questions, you cannot speak to someone without days of requesting assistance or answers and then eventually can get a call back and then it is usually resolved fairly quickly. But NOT easy to get that help.

The training was easy to implement and understand. We had no issues completing all the training offered by the Axis staff. They were all very knowledgeable about the product and walked us through every step until the go-live day. We did the hand-holding until the end, our staff was very pleased with the patience of our trainers and thankful for their understanding, helping to be sure we were well-trained and ready for our go-live date. We are grateful. Thanks again to the trainers.

I didn't have in-person training, but I'm sure it was just as great as any other training/assistance Paylocity provides. Paylocity customer service is always available. You never have to be on hold and their answers are always accurate and timely. Documents in the help section are helpful as well. My in-person training was conducted y one of our employees who was involved in the initial set-up and training of all employees. She was excellent.

I would give this training a high rating because it was thorough and easy to understand. The trainers were detailed and very helpful throughout the transition process. They promptly addressed any concerns or issues, making it simple to set up the new Axis system and app. The support received when we encountered minor issues was excellent as well; they worked with us until everything was functioning properly. Overall, the experience was smooth and effective, leading to a successful implementation of the system.

The training was live online, but was with a group of other companies. We did not receive any personalized training with our team. Whenever we would ask for training, we would be sent a peak article link or a video. It felt like the reps we dealt with didn't know the answer to the questions.

Implementation was a bit bumpy and Paylocity team not always available for next steps and/or questions. I feel like Paylocity could have done a better job in their fact finding as far as what we were currently doing, our payroll policies and needs, etc. so that we would have run into less issues as we moved forward.

We used eRSP solutions before switching to AxisCare Home Care Software. I think AxisCare Home Care Software does a better job at organization and definitely better with customization than eRSP. AxisCare Home Care Software also has more features than eRSP did.

We went through demos five years ago and we evaluated ADP and UKG in the past, and we used Paycor previously. In the past, I've used ADP and Kronos when it was still Kronos at other companies. So several different ones. One of the main reasons was that it was all one platform and you didn't have to log into other platforms for it to communicate with each other. Payroll talks to time that talks back to payroll and you don't have to log into anything separate. The reporting was also really easy and you didn't have to have a master's degree to do it.

The system offered what we needed.

We have gone from a medium sized company to a larger company with no issues whatsoever with Paylocity being able to keep up or do what we need it to do for the size of our needs. In fact, it does more than we even use at this juncture

• AxisCare data is critical to our company profitability, growth, and efficiency. The ability to utilize data effectively provides us with the means to grow and expand responsibly.
• Our projections for business growth suggest we will double our new client setup labor (AxisCare setup) for the same amount of profit stream. Only with the efficiency of AxisCare will it be possible to support the added labor required for this effort.
• End of month reports, quarterly reports, progress notes, and billing data are supported well by AxisCare. These items could be streamlined to further reduce our data processing labor.
• AxisCare is missing client associated protocol plans and other risk assessment documents. These should be available to the client and caregiver as associated with the needs of that client.

• So when I first found Paylocity back in 2013 and was pitching it to the senior leadership company, my PowerPoint presentation, our return on investment was reducing errors in time and labor. We did paper time sheets back in the day back in 2007, 2008. So we were always running paper time sheets, Microsoft Excel or other standalone products, printing them out and hand keying them into a payroll system. So my ROI to our company was to save money and time on data entry and also to better manage the taxes. So we pay for the tax service, we're in 27 states having to manage that. Previously we were responsible for knowing what every state tax codes were, what every state tax compliance rules were. So with Paylocity we signed up for a tax service and that has been a huge return on investment.
