LinkedIn verifiedIt handles RTI, auto-enrolment and statutory pay reliably. Connect being a separate add on is the only slight downside.
Auto-enrolment handling is a real time saver.
Not much built in for wider HR.

Thanks for the feedback. Really glad the payroll and auto-enrolment tools are working well for you.

The pension provider integrations mean auto-enrolment basically runs itself now. It used to be my worst job of the month.
The employee app and online payslips cut down on questions from staff.
None so far.

Payroll runs smoothly every month and year end is far less stressful than it used to be.
The value for money is hard to beat.

Switched from a manual process and it took the pain out of pensions and RTI. Statutory pay calculations are spot on.
Support actually understands UK payroll and gets back to you quickly.
Very large employers might want deeper HR features built in.
Accountant, Redgate Digital
We run payroll for over 200 client companies on BrightPay. The RTI submissions are painless and auto-enrolment is fully handled.
Excellent value compared with the bigger payroll names.
Occasionally an update needs installing at a slightly awkward time.

Support is knowledgeable and quick.
Some screens feel a bit dated.

Nothing worth noting.
