Go with the flow
Automate the entire employee life cycle in a single HCM software
The beauty of full-solution automation
From the beginning, our single database was designed so our tools work together. And we’re constantly optimizing them to elevate our unique software. Every tool enhancement not only improves that tool, it improves all of them — streamlining performance and communication for a continuous flow of automation. This helps you maintain data integrity and allows for uninterrupted management of the employee life cycle, from hiring to offboarding and every process in between.
Talent Acquisition
Take hiring to a higher level
Our applicant tracking tool provides a seamless recruiting and hiring experience for you and the applicant to keep top talent from falling through the cracks. It automatically posts open positions to your company website, top careers sites and online job boards. And once a candidate applies, their data populates systemwide and never has to be reentered. Other tools allow you to expedite onboarding, secure available tax credits, customize background checks, confirm employment eligibility and more.
“All information gets populated from the employee’s application, so all HR has to do is select which checklist they need to do.”

Plus, you can easily manage expenses, garnishments and payroll taxes and offer flexible pay options like pay cards and daily pay to your people. Our software even allows you to generate perfectly mapped general ledger reports for easy direct import.

HCM software FAQs
How Paycom addresses your HCM needs
A truly single software means everything is contained in one place. All the HR and payroll tools you need, and related employee data, can be accessed with one login and one password.
A single software or, more specifically, a single database, allows for a seamless flow of data and communication between tools. This is the only way to achieve true HR and payroll automation. It also eliminates the need for hopping between apps that require different logins, reentering data into each and the security risks that come with multiple entry points. Be cautious of providers that claim to have a single software or database but are a patchwork of several systems designed to appear as one.
The moment you become a client, you’re assigned a dedicated team devoted to your success and responsive to your needs. They’ll help you with implementation and processing your first payroll and provide ongoing guidance. Whenever support is needed, you won’t have to endure phone trees, ticket systems or other delays. Just the fast response time and world-class service you deserve.
Our single software’s unique design allows for unparalleled insights into the efficiencies you’re able to achieve. Empowering employees to manage their own HR and payroll data is key to the bottom-line benefits you’ll experience. Our software measures employee usage and assigns a dollar value for each task. That value is based on groundbreaking Ernst & Young research on the costs associated with performing those tasks manually or by someone other than the employee. The more employees interact with our software, the greater your ROI. Our labor analytics capabilities will show you what you’re saving and how to further maximize your ROI.
Human capital management software is an integrated suite of tools designed to manage and optimize an organization’s HR processes from recruitment to retirement. By streamlining critical HR functions like talent acquisition, payroll, performance management and benefits administration, HCM software can enable data-driven decision-making and drastically enhance the overall employee experience.
Our single software employs industry-proven, formally audited and ISO- and SOC-certified security standards. Because our tools live in one HCM software, data remains secure within our single architecture — built at Paycom, by Paycom.
In one easy app, Paycom provides award-winning HR tools to streamline processes at every step of the employee life cycle. Our software’s intuitive interface and dedicated support help our clients fully leverage their HR tech investment.
At its core is Beti®, our employee-guided payroll experience. Beti guides employees to find and fix paycheck errors before payroll submission — all right in the Paycom app. That reduces post-payroll corrections, mitigates compliance risk and cuts days off the process!
No. An HRIS allows users to manage employee-related data, including PTO accruals, pay rates and benefit selections. An HCM is more comprehensive, also allowing users to manage a workforce, assist in talent development and elevate the overall employee experience.
Ease of use should be top of mind, but be sure to consider how the software helps achieve your goals within the company culture. Explore each potential vendor’s commitment to customer service and its ability to help you become audit-ready, should the need arise.

While other providers package their products in suites or bundles, Paycom allows clients to add the functionality they need beyond payroll. Because we build our own tools instead of acquiring or partnering with other providers, Paycom’s functionality is seamless; data entered in one spot automatically flows throughout the others — with no reentry required — for maximum efficiency and ROI.
At Paycom, we don’t believe in phone trees or customer queues. During business hours, in-house receptionists answer all calls and direct you to the right person. Each client is assigned a primary point of contact — someone who knows you and your business — for all software questions. If your dedicated specialist isn’t available at that time, a member of their team is ready to assist.
Of course! We pride ourselves on setting the standard for service and support. Paycom clients enjoy the backing of a professional team of experts to help them fully utilize our single software. Whether it’s having a dedicated specialist who understands your business or simply knowing you’ll speak to a real, knowledgeable person within seconds of your call, we’re here for you.
