## Reviews

### "Best Customer Service & Reporting" — 5.0/5

> **Emily** | *11 December 2024* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The flexibility of reporting, the prompt customer service, and the simply integrated webclock are some of the features that I love.
> 
> **Cons**: With the reporting being so customizable and flexible, sometimes it can be hard to remember where to find the report you are looking for.
> 
> My overall experience with PGi has been amazing. From implementation to daily use and ongoing support, I have no complaints

-----

### "HR Coordinator" — 4.0/5

> **Melissa** | *14 November 2024* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Friendly and helpful staff
User Friendly
Once you figure out where to look for item, reports are simple 
Running payroll is a dream, generate and cancel cheques as needed. 
Closing payroll is simple and easy
> 
> **Cons**: What our employees complain about most is their vacation and flex hours do not decrease as soon as a request is approved by supervisors - if people do not do the math under requests they tend to over book.  They do not want to keep track of it.
> 
> My experience has been great.  I loved being part of the installation, team was helpful. Really looking forward to the HRIS and seeing what it can do for us

-----

### "Payroll automation works" — 4.0/5

> **Nav** | *24 September 2024* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: -Customer services is exceptional 
-Great team of people who understand your needs and work through them to meet your organizational needs
-Regular updates to enhance users' experience 
-Canadian company understands Canadian payroll needs better 
-Quick response for things that can't wait given payroll timing. 
-Humble, patient and good listeners
> 
> **Cons**: -Every time there is a system upgrade, some employees lose access to timecard entry temporarily, and system processing takes longer.
-It will be great to have an email with the details of what are upgrades and what impacts those upgrades have on existing data 
-The vacation logs should be locked for the past days and should not change with a change in an employee's hours retroactively.
> 
> Overall, PGi helps employees enter their time and process payroll more easily. Employees can access their T4s and paystubs, which they can retrieve at their convenience, saving time for payroll administrators to focus on analyzing time card data. There are various reports available to pull different types of data for budgeting payroll expenses and comparing expenses from one period to another.
