“I love being able to press a button and e-mail all the payslips”

Also the Government one return is made so easy again, just submit and it is all completed, If I have any queries or questions the Support Team always sort out any issues and provide solutions.

I find because the product is cloud based if I think of something which needs updating after I have finished work, I can just use my mobile phone or I pad at home so it is very accessible.

Offshore Payroll is very easy to use, it saves me considerable time and has streamlined our payroll process.
