Best Fit

The XpressPayroll for Accountants wholesale version is a good fit for accounting professionals who want to work with client payroll without implementing an in-house payroll application or preparing payroll tax returns. It’s also designed for organizations with a total of five or fewer paid employees in one state.

Strengths

• Each company comes with a single client login, along with optional accountant access.
• Reports & websites in the wholesale version can be branded with the accounting firm’s logo.
• Flat-fee monthly pricing ($35/mo. for monthly payroll) makes costs predictable.
• Clean user interface provides quick efficient payroll processing.
• Included employee self-service portal (PayView) can be configured to allow pay stub and W-2 download for all employees, as well as company-wide reporting for owners & managers.

Potential Limitations

• Does not support after-the-fact payroll processing.
• No online Help or knowledgebase available, although there is phone & e-mail support.
