Gusto
A U.S. payroll, benefits, and HR platform designed for small and midsize employers.
What it is
Gusto runs payroll and tax filings and can add hiring, onboarding, time tracking, benefits administration, performance tools, contractor payments, and HR support.
Ways to use it
Ideas from real executive operations work. Take the ones that fit.
- Run approved U.S. payroll and off-cycle payments.
- Coordinate new-hire records and onboarding tasks.
- Track time, PTO, and employee status changes on eligible plans.
- Administer integrated benefits with the client's licensed providers.
- Export payroll and workforce reports for finance review.
Our take
Gusto fits a U.S. employer that needs to move recurring payroll and employee administration out of spreadsheets. Qualified tax, legal, and benefits professionals should own the decisions in their areas, and an accountable company approver should review every payroll run, filing setup, deduction, and employee status change.
