## Reviews

### "Square got me organized, and now payroll is so much easier." — 5.0/5

> **Carolyn Black-Coffey** | *10 June 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very easy to track and import wages. a 3 minute process. I went from a manual system to this. No more anxiety around payroll anymore. I know its correct. Taxes are shipped off and on time every time.
> 
> **Cons**: The set up was a bit tough for me, as I was in over my head with the tech at first. But they held my hand and answered every question I had.
> 
> Square has been immeasurably helpful with getting and keeping me organized in regard to payroll. They send reminders and make sure I'm following all the local, state and federal laws, and organize my employee taxes so easily.&#10;Now that we have been using it for a year or more, its practically automated. The transition was harder for me, as my former payroll company had a more manual system, and the formatting process was harder for me to understand than Square. The other company made it too complicated, and Square is much easier to use and navigate, once you get used to the system.&#10;It was tough, but their customer service team was always there, ready with a real person to help guide me. &#10;You should try them.

> 
> **Pros**: easy to use\! they handle filing all relevant information for me

### "The ideal Payroll System for Small Business Owners" — 5.0/5

> **Michelle** | *25 November 2024* | Restaurants | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: There is so much to love about Square Payroll, but ease of use is at the top of the list. Our team members are able to clock in/out on our POS, which populates timecard info that is imported to run Payroll. I can track \&amp; pay out PTO, withhold Child Support payments, distribute tips -- it's all super intuitive and clear, for both me and my employees. I also love that they automatically withhold and remit Payroll Taxes. It gives me a ton of peace of mind\!
> 
> **Cons**: Honestly, I can't think of any Cons. It's intuitive, easy to use, and affordable. It integrates with our POS \&amp; there's an App where team members can access their paystub and tax information -- it's a great system\!
> 
> We've been using Square Payroll for 7 years now, and have had an exceptional experience. It was intuitive and easy to use to begin with, but they keep adding products and improving functionality.
