Pros and Cons	Simplifies payroll processing and tax compliance, making it user-friendly even for non-experts. Offers robust integrations with platforms like QuickBooks Online and other accounting systems. Excellent customer support that is responsive, timely, and efficient in resolving issues. Comprehensive features for businesses, including onboarding, benefits management, retirement plans, and compliance support. Transparent and scalable pricing based on team size, suitable for startups and growing businesses. Occasional reports of errors in support communication or inconsistencies in handling complex account issues. Some users find the transition from alternative payroll providers to Gusto challenging without adequate guidance. Limited advanced customization for businesses with highly complex payroll needs.	Extremely user-friendly and intuitive interface, making it easy for employees to clock in/out, submit timecards, and track work hours. Availability of both mobile app and desktop versions ensures flexibility and ease of access, especially for remote workers. Integrated features like PTO tracking, geo-fencing, and timecard editing provide efficiency and flexibility. Seamless synchronization with payroll systems and QuickBooks (with a bit of setup) enhances administrative efficiency. Reliable and fast, minimizing glitches and offering instant feedback during usage. Occasional lags, slow loading times, or minor bugs can disrupt the user experience at times. Manual punch entries and editing timecards can be challenging or prone to errors for some users. Administrators face inefficiencies like requiring dual logins (user and admin) and the inability to easily manage certain tasks, such as assigning multiple roles or customizing reports.
