    "Easy Management of Pay Stubs for Employees"

    Posted 2021-12-09

    Pros: I like that I can manage all my employees and ensure they have access to digital pay stubs on time and correctly. The admin end of Foundation Software is easy to navigate and set up new users as we onboard them. The design of their website is easy to use and support is always available when needed.

    Cons: There should be an Android and iPhone app. Currently, you have to log into the website on your phone through a browser.

    Password management sometimes can be difficult with a large user group because password changes and management are only done via email invite to the employee on an individual basis.

    Overall: I am able to set up my entire company and ensure they can see their pay stubs on time. The management and ease of setup saved so much time for my team and I. I feel very confident that our users also enjoy being able to see their pay stubs as soon as they post.
