At Gusto, we’ve been focused on quickly evolving our all-in-one platform for payroll, benefits, and HR to make it easier for our customers to run their businesses. We’ve built dozens of new features and tools – from 50-state tax registration to workers’ compensation – empowering businesses to grow and take care of their teams.
It’s because our products have helped more than 200,000 businesses that Gusto has been named the best human capital management software for the midmarket by SoftwareReviews, the best overall payroll processing software by TechRepublic, and the best payroll software by U.S. News and World Report, among others.
We believe solving complex problems is the key to helping our customers win. When they’re successful, we are too – and we think that’s exactly how it should be.
Empowering remote hiring and onboarding
The pandemic has transformed how we work and where we work. According to Gusto research, every state has experienced at least a 10% year-on-year increase in the share of employees who work from home, full-time. That’s why Gusto has built payroll features and hiring tools to help customers keep everything together — even when their people are apart:
Local, state, and federal payroll tax filing
State tax registration in all 50 states
Hiring tools like an applicant tracking system, job postings, document e-signing and storage, and offer letter templates
New employee or contractor onboarding tools like custom checklists and easy software provisioning within just a few clicks
Culture-building and management tools like automated feedback requests, performance review templates, and learning and development tools
Access to trusted HR professionals who can provide expert advice and share best practices around compliance
Insights and reporting features like customizable reports, anonymous team surveys, automatic compliance alerts
Easy access to benefits for budgets of all sizes
In a tight labor market, businesses need to work hard to keep their top employees. We believe in helping businesses take care of their employees’ health and well-being – leading us to give customers options to craft the right benefits packages for their teams.
Through partnerships with our carriers, Gusto provides competitive retirement and health benefits for every budget. We also provide options for health and wellness, including dental, vision, HSA and FSA, plus benefits like workers’ compensation and commuter benefits.
Businesses using Gusto’s people platform can also help employees plan for their financial futures through Gusto Wallet, a free mobile app helping employees track, save, and access their money. This provides employees with access to flexible spending accounts, college savings, and 401(k)s, so they can route pre-tax earnings into accounts that help secure long-term financial health.
Simplifying payments for contractors in more than 100 countries
There is now one contractor for every five employees at a business – nearly double what it was just five years ago, before the pandemic. With the rise of contracting around the world, it’s critical for high-growth businesses to be able to tap into agile and flexible talent, no matter where they are in the world. We make it easy for businesses to do this by enabling international contractor payments in more than 100 countries, in their own currencies.
Transparent pricing
We know our customers need maximum value from their payroll, benefits, and HR platform – and we believe in helping them make every dollar count. That’s why we offer transparent pricing and no hidden fees, while giving customers all the tools they need to hire, onboard, manage, and compensate their teams.
When our customers succeed through our tools and features, we win too
We’re honored that SoftwareReviews, a division of Info-Tech Research Group, has named Gusto the best human capital management software for the midmarket – particularly because SoftwareReviews’ Awards are based on the experiences of business owners with the software’s product features and customer support. Also factored into the equation is how likely they are to recommend it to other users, for which Gusto ranked highest as well – with 94% reporting they’d recommend the software.
Gusto exists to solve customer problems and our mission is to create a world where work empowers a better life. We’ve built an all-in-one payroll, benefits and HR platform that delivers on this mission by making the most complicated tasks simple and personal. It’s why in 2022, Gusto has been named:
As we kick off the New Year, we’re grateful for the opportunity to continue serving small and medium-sized businesses across the U.S. – and we can’t wait to support them into 2023 and beyond, and to play a part on their entrepreneurial journey. Their success is our success.
