Patriot Software makes payroll and HR software for small US businesses. Payroll includes unlimited pay runs, free direct deposit, an employee portal and contractor payments.
Patriot says you run payroll through a simple, short process and get back to your business. You can create customizable deductions and contributions for retirement plans, health insurance, garnishments and more. For hourly teams with different jobs, you can add multiple pay rates, or roles, per employee. A payroll report lists every payroll run for every employee, organized by pay date.
Patriot says its payroll features are developed with small business owners in mind, and that the software serves businesses in all industries. Accountants and bookkeepers can also partner with Patriot, and firms of all sizes can participate. Partners can see all of their clients after logging in, use a Switch button to move between clients, and decide who can access accounts and how.
Payroll information is imported into Patriot’s Accounting software. Patriot offers retirement plan integration through its partner Vestwell, and pay-as-you-go workers’ comp integration with its partner ERGO Next Insurance. Patriot describes its support team as USA-based, and you can chat or call during weekday business hours, or send an email.
Basic Payroll leaves tax filing to you, while Full Service Payroll files and deposits federal, state and local payroll taxes. HR software and time and attendance are add-ons. Current prices are in the pricing box above.
