I was able to transfer my payroll info into Patriot quickly and efficiently using their help pages. The price for the payroll software is affordable for clients like myself who are solo practitioners. > > **Cons**: There is a learning curve to using software like this, but that is to be expected.

I appreciate quality software that is user friendly and easy on the budget\! ----- ### "Worth Every Penny\!" — 5.0/5 > **Beth** | *26 March 2026* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Taking out payroll from QuickBooks to Patriot was the ABSOLUTE best thing we could have ever done. The cost was considerably lower, and they don't hassle us with additional fees for every little thing. AND they process our tax deposits\! That's the best part of all. The customer support is superior to any other support I've ever used. The techs are kind, patient, and walk you through anything and everything. Running payroll is the easiest thing, takes no time at all. We've been Patriot client for over a year now and have not run into any issues or glitches at all. It's smooth to use and I can run payroll from anywhere. My phone, at home or just at my desk. I will always give it a 5-star review\! > > **Cons**: I cannot think of one con or negative thing about Patriot Payroll. Quickbooks was a pain and Patriot took that all away\! > > Best experience I've ever had with payroll. If I make a mistake, support can always walk me through fixing it. ----- ### "Patriot Payroll makes payroll a breeze with its easy setup and user-friendly interface." — 3.0/5 > **Fernando** | *14 October 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love how simple and straightforward Patriot Payroll is to use. It saves me so much time\! > > **Cons**: I wish Patriot Payroll had more robust reporting features, as the current options are somewhat limited. ----- ### "Perfect fit for a small company" — 5.0/5 > **Paul** | *15 December 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The value of the program and ease of processing payroll for our small company. It provides very detailed reports, and is very easy to navigate the system. > > **Cons**: Haven't found anything yet\! Every report, every aspect, every output product, even through updates to the software, has been easy to implement and utilize in our ancillary programs. > > We needed to convert our payroll processing system a few years ago - I had heard an ad on the radio for the product and started researching it. It was a perfect fit for us, and we immediately implemented it in 2017, and haven't changed or even considered changing since then, even through our renewed growth. ----- Page: 1 / 159\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/116050/Patriot-Software?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/116050/Patriot-Software) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
