Payroll Made E-Z

Summary: Great Payroll Program for a Small Business
Review: Easy-to-use program supports up to 25 employees. Fast setup accounting system for any small business. Integrates invoicing, accounts payable, payroll, and checkbook. Prints W-2 and 1099 forms. Registration by phone at [phone] is required to obtain a customer number to unlock the program. Upgrade is optional but not necessary. By far, the least expensive quality program available in the market.

Summary: Great for first time payroll administrators.
Review: Great program for small businesses. Format is easy to use and understand. Has good end-of year reports. Great value for the dollar.

Summary: Software comes with 2001 tax tables!!!!!!!!
Review: My copy of this software came with outdated tax table information! It will be returned faster than I can say "JUNK"! It turns out that the tax tables for year 2001 came with the software and to upgrade you have to pay more money. Essentially, you cannot use the software as it's provided to calculate any withholding for the current year! Save your money and time - buy another payroll program.

Summary: Barely adequate basic program
Review: Product contains outdated tax tables. "Upgrade" to current year's (2001) data, which you'll need if you want to withhold correctly, costs $100, from someone other than the software publisher E-Z Legal. And, the publisher doesn't support the program -- there's a third party author involved.

Summary: Barely adequate basic program
Review: The basic EZ payroll program will calculate the amount of paychecks but that's about it; some reporting functions are there but are difficult to get adequate results with. Most irritating is the fact that many of the functions that the program ought to perform are not available on the basic version; you have to buy the upgrade to get them. As a result, much of the payroll information is "hidden" once it enters the program; the buttons for accessing it are mentioned in the "help" windows, but don't exist on the basic version. In my opinion the inexpensive basic version is little more than a come-on to hook you into buying the expensive upgrade. They should certainly mention that fact prominently in the ads.

Summary: Great Payroll Program for a Small Business
Review: This software is one of the worst things I bought last year. I tried to use it. It must be registered by phone or mail, internet is not an option. I called to register and got an answering machine with another number. I called there and spoke to a live operater who told me I had purchased the bottom end package and would I like to upgrade for $100.00. "NO" said I. He told me I would never be able to update my tax tables unless I paid for the upgrade. The software came with the 1998-1999 tax tables, I bought it in 2000. Not very useful for payroll in 2001.
