## Reviews

### "Wagepoint - Good value for the product\!" — 4.0/5

> **Crystal** | *23 April 2025* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Simple and user friendly, as well as easy for team members to look up information from a mobile device.
> 
> **Cons**: The software itself has a dated look, and could use some polishing/updating to appear more professional.
> 
> Great - absolutely does what we need it to do, and all team members are able to easily access it with no issue.

### "The best Payroll software so far" — 5.0/5

> **Julia** | *19 December 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: User-friendly, fits most of our requirements, cheaper than for example QB, and a very good Help service. Opportunity to create and edit ROE, sending it to Service Canada over Wagepoint. T4/T4A . I like reports - very clear info and easy to find.
> 
> **Cons**: We still should do manual entry of HST for contractors, variable dues that are calculated as a rate per hour (not per dollar earned). &#10;Also, T4/T4A should have all boxes available for use&#10;Would be good if Wagepoint showed warnings if w submit T4/T4A without SIN or HST
> 
> In general, we like Wagepoint. We came after using ADP and QB and found out   it is better and user-friendly, with easily accessible help

### "Lacks flexibility for employees, built for employers" — 1.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *07 August 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Wagepoint helps facilitate getting paid as an employee, which might suit early-stage startups or small teams that want a simple payroll solution without much overhead—but it's quite limited beyond that.
> 
> **Cons**: You can’t access your own pay statements unless you’re the employer, even with full verification. For something as critical as getting paid, this rigid policy is unacceptable and needs to change.

### "Great service" — 5.0/5

> **Dr Alex** | *31 December 2025* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very prompt and specifically helpful for my recalling my wage hours for a particular employee so I could correct my mistake
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing to dislike. I have no complaints whatsoever. They solved my problem immediately.  I like that I didn’t have to wait on the phone for the next available agent.
> 
> Very efficient, prompt, and friendly.  I like the use of the email. My previous payroll service was only by telephone and it’s nice to learn something new.
