TriNet User friendly
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We used TriNet HR Plattfom for primarily processing payroll. It does provide us with the basic information to generate reports to manually process information into our Accounting System. It would be nice to have some kind of integration with our accounting system.
Pros
- The reports generated for entering payroll into our accounting system is easy to read and understand
- The Vacation and Sick time accrual reports makes it easy for year end.
- The information on anniversary dates for vesting is very useful.
Cons
- Integration with Accounting system
- Issues of out of cycle payroll can be better presented
- There should be safeguards in place to prevent inadvertently transfer funds more than once by mistake
Return on Investment
- Since I started, I have nothing to compare this to see we were already on TriNet
- We have not benchmark this.
- We probably have only used the more basic features

Partnering with TriNet is a no brainer
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We mostly use TriNet for HR compliance, benefits, and payroll services. TriNet HR Platform offers competitive benefits plans and rates that would be very difficult for us to obtain as a small to mid-sized company.
Pros

- Staying on top of HR compliance (labor laws and regulations)
- Integration with other apps
Cons
- Employee solution center used to be more responsive
- I am told multiple ways to contact different teams at Trinet. It would be great if it was more centralized.
- I wish the compensation benchmark report function was free
Return on Investment
- My company is likely saving $50k or so on health insurance
- My company is saving $30k/yr on retirement plan services via TriNet

Worth it. Go get Zenefits.
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We're using Zenefits to manage all our employee information from hiring, time off, payroll, through the process of termination. Zenefits integrates really well with our applicant tracking system too, so that makes for seamless processes of selection and recruiting. Zenefits solves several key issues of information available for our managers and forth the members of our team to connect with one another: contact info, PTO schedules, and approvals.
Pros
- Ease of use for employees
- Ease of use and level of customization for managers
- integration of all HR functions under one platform
Cons
- A few things about setting up payroll have been a bit glitchy, notably the inability to record a permanent as well as a work mailing address for some employees.
Most Important Features
- comprehensive payroll, taxes, and benefits
- Simple hiring and employee documentation
Return on Investment
- Great ROI. It replaced a system (no system) which was free but messy and hard to organize. Zenefits has been worth it for our small HR department.
