Paychex, a provider of business process automation and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS (News - Alert)) platform, announced its cloud-based platform now combines technology and service to streamline workforce management.

The services -- payroll, time and attendance, HR, benefits, training, and performance management– provide users with the options they want to improve efficiency and productivity.

“We developed this next generation of Paychex technology using a ground-up approach,” said Michael Gioja, Paychex senior vice president of information technology, product management, and development, in a statement.

With this solution, the company is able to drive the latest features and functionality to a broader range of clients and give them the options they want today with the foundation for the options they’ll need tomorrow, Gioja added.

The platform combines the most intuitive user experience that offers integration across product lines on one interface, with broader reporting and analysis capabilities for all client data so that the clients gain greater control and increased personal productivity.

Users also benefit from the flexibility to complete all payroll and human resource functions themselves. Employees and business partners can perform tasks in a secure environment. Users can also customize their desktop and create custom workflows to work how they want and with greater productivity.

When combined with Paychex Mobile for smartphones and Paychex Online for tablets, the new platform gives users the flexibility to work across devices and pick up on one where they left off on another.

With its new user interface, Paychex delivers increased consistency, simplicity and intelligence to drive increased user productivity. The platform uses context-aware settings to anticipate the information the user needs based on the current task being performed.

With its ability to centralize data, the Paychex platform uses a single source of data to power all functions and applications, so administrators can update an employee record while in one application, such as payroll, and have it immediately available in other applications, such as time and attendance.

Paychex Report Center also provides reporting solutions allowing easy access to insightful information that helps administrators operate more effectively and make informed management decisions. Users can easily access Paychex’s most requested reports, or customize selected reports by date range, employee type, or more using Reports on Demand. 

Paychex Mobile App for smartphones delivers a robust set of features for both employers and their employees that can be easily accessed from a customized dashboard of favorite tasks right on the device.

Additionally, the solution provides users with access to essential employee and company data from application, without interruption to the task at hand.
