Overall it was easy to use. As noted, not being able to view my team in aggregate and at a glance was tedious and cumbersome.

I like Paychex, especially their customer service. I get assigned a payroll specialist who is dedicated to our team here. We also get a dedicated HRBP who helps us with compliance issues and make sure that we are utilizing all of the Paychex offerings available to us. She alone has made our jobs a lot easier. I can't say enough about Paychex Customer Service. I have a direct email to my Client Services Rep and they respond in minutes, plus they are professional and NICE! They are patient and work along side us to solve problems and give solutions. It's seriously like the Chik-fil-a of HRIS systems when it comes to Customer Service.
Pros
Ease of use and product offering is well rounded, great for a mid-sized company like ours.
Cons
The reporting is awful. It's a very inflexible system and literally my only complaint about the entire product. I wish they could get this right, it would elevate my experience 10 fold.
