Beti Named a Top HR Product of 2021

Paycom Software, Inc. (NYSE: PAYC), a leading provider of comprehensive, cloud-based human capital management software, was awarded the 2021 Top HR Product honor for its newest innovation, Beti, by Human Resource Executive magazine at the HR Technology Conference & Exposition.

“Employees expect their HR and payroll software to be efficient and easy to use,” said Chad Richison, Paycom’s founder and CEO. “Beti puts the responsibility for an accurate payroll in employees’ hands, making payroll the way it always should have been, because it impacts them the most.”

This marks the third consecutive year for Paycom to receive such honors from the publication: first with the Awesome New Technology award for Direct Data Exchange® in 2019 and with Manager on-the-Go® for the magazine’s inaugural Top HR Product list the following year.

Paycom’s Beti (Better Employee Transaction Interface) is an industry-first technology empowering employees to do their own payroll. Employees already manage all other components of their paychecks, including timecards, expenses, PTO requests and benefits; now they have the convenience within Paycom to process their own payroll, too. By guiding them to access, view, manage, troubleshoot and approve their paycheck before payroll is submitted, HR can focus on more strategic endeavors.

“These gaps in employee insight, awareness and control over their own HR and payroll data are why the release of Paycom’s Beti payroll experience is so important and, I think, the next important step in the evolution of employee self-service capabilities,” said Steve Boese, HR Technology Conference program chair and co-host of the HR Happy Hour podcast.

Beti allows employees to catch and resolve mistakes before payroll runs, helping ensure 100% payday accuracy and reducing the need for businesses to administer costly corrections.
