Some advanced features like payroll and benefits administration require add-ons or upgrades.

Pricing is not upfront and may be costly for very small businesses.

Payroll and benefits administration features are primarily available for U.S.-based employees.

Pricing transparency issues: Pricing details are not openly disclosed upfront which may complicate budgeting decisions for some companies.

Payroll & benefits administration limited to the U.S.: These features are only available within the United States restricting global applicability for multinational firms or those outside the U.S..

Time tracking requires an additional paid add-on: Unlike time-off management included in core plans (Core & Pro), time tracking functionality needs separate activation through a distinct widget which some users find inconvenient or cumbersome to set up initially.

May lack certain advanced features needed by larger enterprises or companies with subsidiaries as noted by some user feedback regarding feature gaps beyond SMB scale usage .
