“Nothing can beat hometown service.”

I have been working with PPS since their inception in 2004 and with Tom since 1998. They have provided great service along with state of the art software that makes my life easier. I have the “Big Boys” in the payroll industry call on me all the time, but they can’t touch what PPS does for us either in service or in price. I think their new HR software, HRNext, rivals anything the national companies have. Nothing can beat what I call “hometown service”. I would highly recommend their services.

PPS has greatly reduced my time spent on payroll and allowed me to focus on more important projects. HRNext has definitely been an added benefit and a great tool in answering many HR questions regarding employee terminations, changes, etc. Ron is great to work with as well as everyone at PPS! Awesome staff and all have been very accommodating in some very unique requests!

“Highly recommend PPS.”

We began using PPS after many years with one of the large "National” payroll companies. It was a change we are glad we made. Although the pricing at PPS was much less than what we were paying, the biggest plus for us was the level of personal service they have given us. We are a construction company with jobs in many different states and PPS stays on top of the individual state and local tax laws to keep us in compliance. We would highly recommend PPS.

“Highly recommend PPS.”
