Implementation/Integration

PeopleGuru’s average implementation timeline is 12 to 16 weeks. Each client is assigned a dedicated Implementation Project Manager who serves as a point of contact during the discovery, planning, building, converting and testing phases right through the first go-live.

Once the software is live, the Implementation Project Manager will hand off support to the Account Manager.

Customer Service & Support

Clients get a dedicated Account Manager, a Strategic Account Manager and a Help Desk support team.

While the Account Manager is the point of contact for any questions, clients can also reach out to the Help Desk team for tech support. The Strategic Account Manager’s role is to review the client’s software usage and other initiatives to help them maximize their return on investment.

Pricing

PeopleGuru offers a per-employee, per-month model that includes both the software and its services. Its average price points range from $10 to $22 per employee, per month, depending on the modules and features the client selects. Contact PeopleGuru for a custom quote.

Shortcomings

PeopleGuru currently doesn’t support international payroll, however companies in the U.S. and Canada can integrate it with its Canadian payroll partner.
