110 Gusto Testimonials

“The energy that we have together is unbelievably cool. We all get along really well, and we respect each other. It’s just a great group of people.”

"The combination of R&D, ERTC credits and PPP loan forgiveness with a one-click export was streamlined, simple, and incredibly effective to help my business get the capital we needed, especially at the height of the pandemic."

"People Advisory could really be a stand alone service. It’s highly valued as an add on, alongside our accounting services. This has been a great, new route to revenue for our firm."

"Without Gusto, I wouldn’t have even known that R&D tax credits were a thing. Not only did Gusto walk us through the process, they showed us that there was a credit we weren’t even thinking about."

"As a small business, having things streamlined and transparent is so important for time management, versus having different functions on multiple platforms. Gusto is a big asset to us in that regard."

“We were not using [time tracking] in Gusto when we first started, but switched to that very quickly because it makes it so much easier for our staff and for Trout. All we have to do on our side is approve the time card and [Trout] has it done in like five minutes. That’s amazing.”

“Offering insurance to an employee that has a bachelor’s degree or a master's degree is now an expectation. I’ve been told in the past that I could offer different incentives [instead of providing health insurance], but I think the people who are working for my agency need health benefits.”

“There are so many different options and plans within each insurance company that it was so overwhelming. So I really appreciated that I could put in my parameters and then I’m given four to five plans to look at, which is perfect.”

“Even though I've been approached along the way by other companies with, ‘Hey, come port your clients over from Gusto over to us’ – I've always resisted that because it really truly is a platform that handles all of our needs. The customer support is very, very good, both on our end as the bookkeeping company and for the clients.”

“Being able to offer health insurance has helped us stay competitive and get to a point where we can make a good offer to a potential full-time applicant. Since being able to do so, we’ve taken on a couple of full-time hires who have enjoyed these benefits.”

"When you’re a business owner, you’re very busy. I needed a provider to break it down for me and make it simple. And that's what I had with Gusto. I didn't look anywhere else for health insurance. It was just too easy to do it through Gusto because it's linked to my payroll. Gusto files the ACH form with the insurance carrier to automate payments and manages the payroll deductions. It's very simple. I don't have to put time or effort into managing that."

“Clients have the money to offer health benefits and they want to do it for their employees, but they don't have the time or the expertise to figure it all out, and so it leads to a lot of delays. With Gusto, they don't have to hire an actual individual to manage that process. They can either self-manage, or because of the integration and support with a firm like Dark Horse, they can monitor and maintain it without the need of a full-time staff member.”

“Being able to provide medical benefits definitely makes Prismm more attractive to prospective employees. Most companies offer benefits today and even as a smaller company, we can compete for talent because Gusto has made it so easy for us to provide health insurance and 401(k) plans. Gusto also makes it easy for the employees to enroll once they join.”

“We are in the business of analyzing health insurance data. That's what we do, working with payers, so it’s a natural fit for us that we should be offering the same benefits that we're analyzing on a day-to-day basis.”
