You would think that the best feature of Payroll4free.com is that it’s free, but you would be wrong. The program is so user friendly and easy to use, they can compete with the most expensive payroll services out there. The people at Payroll4free.com are professionals who know what they’re doing and are always there to help. The reports that I can pull up from the system are some of the best reports I’ve seen so far from a payroll service company. I would, without any hesitation, recommend Payroll4free.com to anyone.

I have used Payroll4Free since the first pay period in January of 2013. I am 200% satisfied, and must say that I have never used a better payroll service. My initial reaction after receiving their promotional card in the mail was ‘This must be a hoax, because there is no free lunch.’ I am very, very happy I called them. I’ve recommended Payroll4Free to all my small business clients.

I was skeptical about leaving my payroll service I had for 20 years but Payroll4Free has been very professional. We have complex Payroll with 6 locations and they made it easy for us. I used to have to do side calculations to allocate wages to different locations but now I just enter hours and I’m done. I highly recommend it to small businesses
