Discover why thousands of businesses trust Netchex
The Netchex Difference
Netchex prides itself on being easy to use for both admins and everyday employees, yet still powerful enough to effectively run your business. Netchex technology is built with the end user in mind. From implementation to continued customer service, Netchex is there with you every step of the way.
Implementation Experience
Making a payroll software switch can be difficult. At Netchex, we make it easier. From day one, Netchex is there for you every step of the way—properly setting everything up, helping you learn the system, and guiding your team through the technology adoption process.
Accurate and Easy to Use Technology
Netchex HR software is designed for everyone to easily learn and use—from HR and payroll admins to managers and everyday employees. User experience is a major component throughout the Netchex system. We design, build, and test every aspect of our software from an end user perspective.
Customer Experience
When you do need help, Netchex is there for you—whenever and however you need it. Our in-house, long-term service team members have the expertise to handle any service issue. With Netchex, you are never alone.
Implementation Made Easy
A lot of HR software companies are vague about the implementation process—or worse, make false promises about the timeline. At Netchex, we believe in being transparent. Each client is assigned an Implementation Lead to:
- Guide you through the conversion process
- Introduce Netchex
- Run a mock payroll, and ultimately, your first successful monthly payroll
Depending on features and services, the relationship between the client and Implementation Team typically lasts around 60 days. From there, you will transition to your dedicated Netchex Service Team.

Netchex Customer Testimonials

I love the integrated platform. With our old payroll company you would have to make the same change in several different areas of the software. With Netchex, it only takes once. This system is so user-friendly, it makes training a breeze. And the customer service is second to none!
Payroll Specialist

Netchex has been fantastic. We enjoy personalized service, we know the people that we deal with, and they bend over backward to get what we need done.
Payroll Administrator

Netchex is wonderful. Everyone has been continuously impressed by the services they provide. Back when the new ACA regulations went into place, and even now with the whole COVID-19 situation, Netchex just continues to knock it out of the park
HR Director

Netchex has been in the business, and they understand what companies are looking for, what companies need, and they listen to what companies have to say what their needs are. They take care of their employers.
HR Director

Everybody always wants to help, and always has a smile on the face. On the times that I have to go pickup payroll because the school’s closed, everyone is just so nice.
HR Support

Love how Netchex strives to grow and be better by really listening to their clients needs. We have grown a lot alongside Netchex in the last few years and it’s excited to see our progress on both sides.
HR Generalist

I stepped into this role with little training and Netchex has made the transition much easier than I expected.
Payroll Administrator

We used to print out each email and application (sometimes hundreds a day), write who it was for, and then go stick it in that managers mail box. Now, we dont even have to do ANY of that since we use NetRecruiter now. Soooooo much less paper and less time consuming for HR!!!
Legal Administrator

I love that I can create numerous reports that I may need so easily. Also, knowing that I can login 24/7 is wonderful as I did not have access to any payroll records at the company we used prior to Netchex.
Legal Administrator

Netchex has made my job easier. I wear multiple hats in my position and Netchex has helped to make things more efficient. This gives me more time for my other duties that aren’t HR/payroll related.
Assistant Controller

Netchex has helped my job be so much easier and faster with all the tools it has. I love learning new things.
HR Director

Coming from an in-house payroll company and moving to Netchex has opened so many wonderful doors. Netchex provides so much assistance with my payroll and HR needs, allowing me more time with other important duties.
Payroll Coordinator/HR

Netchex has been in the business, and they understand what companies are looking for, what companies need, and they listen then to what companies have to say what their needs are. They take care of their employers.
