Its cloud based so I can run the whole thing from home when I need to. No software to install, no backups to worry about.
Being cloud based I can run payroll from anywhere. Office, home, on my phone when I am travelling, it does not matter.
Nothing so far.
Bookkeeper, Drakensberg Trading
We lost hours every month working around problems that should never happen in a payroll system. Cannot recommend it.
The idea of everything in one place is good, the execution just was not there for us.
The cost does not match the experience you get, especially for a smaller business.

The interface looks a bit dated in places. It does the job but a fresh coat of paint would not hurt.
HR Manager
LinkedIn verifiedBeen using it for a couple of years now across our branches and it just works. The setup took some patience but the team walked us through all of it.
The employee self service is the big one for me. Staff log in, check payslips, apply for leave and update their own details, which frees up so much of my time.
The onboarding felt like a lot at the start, but thats payroll for you, not really their fault.
Founder, Vaal Trading
LinkedIn verifiedOverall a good experience. It does everything we need for payroll and the compliance side is handled well, I just found the setup a bit fiddly.
Self service for staff cuts down on admin. Leave, payslips and personal details are all on them now.
The learning curve is real. Give yourself a good few weeks before you feel comfortable.
Admin Manager, Vaal Holdings
LinkedIn verifiedFine overall. It is accurate and compliant which is the main thing, but the day to day feels clunky compared to what I expected.
It keeps payroll and leave in one place so I am not jumping between systems.
Getting hold of support can take a while and the answers vary depending who you get.
HR and Payroll Officer, Umhlanga Trading
LinkedIn verifiedWe moved our whole payroll onto PaySpace last year and honestly I do not know how we managed before. Payslips go out on time every month and staff can pull their own P60s without bugging me.
Leave management is built into the same system so I am not chasing spreadsheets around the office anymore.
Sometimes the system is a little slow first thing in the morning when everyone logs in.
Accountant, Cape Foods
Honestly one of the better payroll systems I have used in this country. Does the HMRC side properly.

Took me a while to find my way around the reports section, but once you know where things live it is fine.
Financial Manager, Bluewater Logistics
LinkedIn verifiedWe have battled with this since we moved over. The system is capable but getting it to do what you want is a fight.
Cloud access is useful, at least I can log in from anywhere.
It is not friendly for someone without a payroll background at all.
Director
LinkedIn verifiedDecent for compliance, average on usability. If you are not from a payroll background be ready to learn.
Payroll comes out accurate and the statutory submissions are handled, which is what I care about most.
The setup and general navigation are not intuitive. Simple tasks take more steps than they should.
