## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 1.6 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. Payentry sells US payroll services with HR, insurance and retirement plans around them, and each client gets a payroll professional and an advocate. Every plan starts with a sales consultation, so no price is published and the features change from client to client.

- **Value for money: C.** No price is published and every plan is a Let's Talk consultation, so it sits at C.
- **Free plan and trial: F.** Nothing is free: no free plan and no trial are listed, so the way in is paying.
- **Features: C.** Plans run from Payroll up to Comprehensive Plus, with employee self-service and a QuickBooks Online link. Plans are configured with sales, so what you get varies.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating is on record, and plans are set up with a consultant rather than by signing up.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only with two integrations listed, QuickBooks Online and Employee Navigator, and no apps.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Payentry you would be making payroll taxes worked out and filed with the government for you. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 52 of the 61 other payroll services grade higher.

- You could make: Employee records and time off: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: Payroll taxes worked out and filed with the government for you.
- You could not: Clocking in from a phone, checked against where and when.
