WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

The best payroll system I've ever used! Octopaye is so easy to set up and so easy to use. Its fast, responsive and has helped streamline our entire payroll process. The support given by the team at Octopaye is second to none and its an absolute pleasure working with them. I have thoroughly enjoyed the process of being onboard with Octopaye and would have no hesitation in highly recommending them to any payroll team. Reasons for Switching to Octopaye Because previous software no longer supported our growth or our needs.
After we was burnt by our previous payroll software provider, Octopaye came to the rescue and provided us a way to streamline our services. Everything is internal so no more does our team have to use multiple systems to do one job. Thank you Octopaye!
At MMC Contractor, we've recently taken the big decision to switch to Octopaye and I must say, we're all asking ourselves why we didn't look to change software sooner. A huge thanks to Rob Gillman and Simon Ballard for all of your support. You've been absolutely first class so far! We can't wait to use the system to its full potential. Alun Edwards - Managing Director
As well as being straightforward and easy to navigate the help button function is a fantastic option to utilise if you encounter any problems. The Snapshot system is another welcomed element, affording the ability to make any necessary adjustments. This combined with the very friendly and knowledgeable staff makes Octopaye the best payroll software around! Lee mcBride - Operations Team Leader
Initially, we paid £50k to our previous payroll provider for additional capabilities, which were not delivered. moreover, the payroll process was taking much longer than it should have. Octopaye came in and simplified the process, making payroll easy and straightforward for both our candidates and staff. This has saved us a significant amount of time, which we've used to improve our entire finance function. As a result, we can now provide better services to our clients and candidates.
We are working with Octopaye when a partner of ours had specific needs to show on the payslip. When speaking with Octopaye they knew exactly what was needed and how to put this in place. It was this unique solution that allowed us to continue with the partner but also eliminate a lot of manual work. It was delivered in a timely fashion and delivered exactly what was expected. The transition and training on a new system was done in an easily understandable manner.
Nearly two years ago Champion Contractors selected Octopaye to be our payroll software provider, and it is now considered be one of the best decisions we have made. Our initial concerns about the data transition process proved to be completely unfounded, because Octopaye provided comprehensive training to our staff, ensuring the whole exercise was seamless. Since then, we have developed an exceptional relationship with the Octopaye team and are very pleased to say they have lived up to their promises; regarding what their services could do for us and how they would support us. As a result, Champion cannot recommend the services of Octopaye highly enough to any other company out there who is in the market for a friendly, professional, and technically excellent business partner.

It is their people and their company ethos that makes Octopaye stand out above the many other payroll SAAS providers in the industry. I couldn’t speak highly enough of their support team. Their ethos, that if recommended additional functionality is a good idea, they will create that functionality, and release it free to all users. Any conversations relating to additional functionality that shows a potential benefit for the software is met with a positive “I will see how we can do that”. Once the dust had settled from the implementation period, everyone within We Contract will tell you how much better, faster, slicker and user friendly the Octopaye software is.  Ultimately all payroll software has the same end goal with a varying degree of efficiency, usability, reliability, service and price, and if you are looking for one that brings it all together, Octopaye have done it incredibly well.

Having used various payroll software throughout my career, working with Octopaye is truly a breath of fresh air. Our payroll team has experienced an increase in productivity and our umbrella employees have provided fantastic feedback on the easy to use portal which gives them access to their records as well as our rewards package. The Octopaye platform delivers everything we need as an Umbrella company to remain compliant whilst providing seamless payroll for our contractor base. The relationship we have with the team is truly collaborative and the support is second to none. The fact that the team have specific sector knowledge means that we don’t have to explain any processes as they fully understand what we are looking to achieve. It’s a great business to work with and we look forward to developing with Octopaye over the coming years.
Working with the team at Octopaye is a dream. As a payroll software partner they are agile, supportive and professional. With our direct API integration we do the hard work, giving you the peace of mind to get on with running your business, knowing that everything is in hand, you are complying with your legal duties and your employees are being well looked after.
The biggest benefit for me is the ease of uploading bulk candidates, batch timesheets etc. Saves me so much time and alleviates the margin of error. Easy to navigate and great people on hand to assist there and then.
The ease of use is a clear winner! Clean, concise and unrivaled user friendliness makes Octopaye stand out from the pack.
From start to finish Octopaye make the hassle of payroll a dream. Once you've uploaded your payroll if you need to make any amendments its a simple task where other systems can be quite labour intense.
User friendly and extremely efficient, would highly recommend to any company needing umbrella payroll software. Octopaye are always listen to feedback and update their system to make the user experience even better
Both myself and the team find it a really good system with the added bonus of lots of support from the Octopaye team.
I searched high and low and spoke to all of the payroll software providers and Octopaye are by far the best, easy to use and we are very happy and we wouldn’t change providers.
Switching to 'Octopaye' from our old payroll software was a great choice to make for many reasons. The main reason is that we have support whenever we need it and with new software this makes a big difference. Also the platform is very easy to use and within a couple of weeks we are seeing the amount of time being saved compared to the old software we used. Overall using 'Octopaye' is having a positive effect on the team and was a great business decision to make and one that is helping us save time every week.
We chose Octopaye because we could not find any other provider that offered all the tools we needed under one payroll platform. It's simply the best payroll software available on the market.

We have several clients operating payroll services and were keen to find a platform that was simple, accurate and could be scaled quickly. We love the fact Octopaye has been developed with users in mind, and as they have HMRC recognition it became an easy decision to make.

I chose to work with Octopaye for 2 main reasons; the speed and the ease of use of their system, it delivers everything I need.

We needed confidence that payslips and communications were produced automatically and in line with our needs. Also, should our Clients run into issues we needed a payroll platform flexible enough and supported proactively to smooth out any bumps in the road painlessly. By partnering with Octopaye, we have all of the above and more.

Octopaye has finally provided us with a payroll package that not only works but helps streamline the business.
