Year end is a breeze and the new RTI was so simple with Payroll Manager 100. I've also used [other payroll software] for other companies that I have worked with and Payroll Manager is so much easier and unfussy in comparison (and cheaper). Would thoroughly recommend it."

I use the invoice, new employee forms and contract facilities. One company is sub- contract labour only. CIS returns are so easy.

"We only have 9 employees, mainly students with no tax, and have for many years used a programme I wrote myself in Microsoft Access. RTI has made this obsolete. I am very happy to have found Payroll Manager and as a programmer myself can appreciate the depth of design and the excellent user interface. First month has gone without a hitch. We are a charity with not much spare money for admin and I think your pricing is very reasonable and, for us, affordable." May 2013

"Payroll Manager is simply the most user-friendly payroll package ever. It correctly focuses on allowing the user to input data visually, without all the dross that all other packages force on you. It is in a class of its own when handling changes to earlier periods. The CIS section of the package is a delight to use, and makes all the compliance junk HMRCy force on contractors simple to follow, and avoid a monthly £100 fine. And Support is unfailingly responsive, polite and informed. I am confident their RTI modifications will be similarly straightforward." May 2013

"We have been using Payroll Manager for a few years now and have always considered it a great programme - having used three other payroll programmes previously, we feel qualified to comment, and have no hesitation in recommending it to others. With the advent of RTI we were anticipating some issues, but Payroll Manager -and the help info - have really helped make it a smooth transition. And - the support is always first class." May 2013

I think the software is fantastic and if not better than [other payroll software]. The fact that you can see all the payments, deductions, SSP all on one screen is great.

"I have been using this software for three years. Previously I used the HMRC system, Prior to that the paper system. This is so easy. I am a complete techno phobe and it is EASY. I wish I had found it earlier. I had my year end figures all sorted and filed in one evening. Previously that took days. Moving to real time daunted me given my staff are all paid weekly but is no hassle at all. I thoroughly recommend it." May 2013

I tried Moneysoft Payroll Manager because so many people on AccountingWeb recommended it so enthusiastically and no-one appeared to have anything bad to say about it.

Julie Callaway Director
Strides Leisure Limited
Software: Payroll Manager
"I was previously committed to a paper based PAYE system, and have moaned for months about having to comply with RTI, for which I needed a software package ( which I expected to provide more pain and red tape!). Having more than 9 employees, I was unable to use the HMRC Basic Tools, and took my accountants advice to buy Moneysoft Payroll Manager. My accountants firm is actually an approved Sage software supplier, so I knew that the Moneysoft software must be good! I'm in my 4th week of using the system, and I have happily to say that my weekly payroll has never been easier. I am regretting the many, many hours I spent with my paper based system. I wish I had discovered Moneysoft years ago! Oh, I have also used the telephone helpline several times, and had quick, friendly and effective help each time." May 2013

I have been extremely impressed with its user Friendliness, ease of use and the versatility of the product.

"We are a small family run book-keeping/accountancy business. We had always run payroll via a simple spread sheet system, but had to convert to payroll software with the new RTI. Moneysoft was recommended to us, and we found it the best for cost, ease of use (even for a client who has many extra bonuses and deductions) and the built-in help manual is simple to understand. When we ran our first RTI in April 2013 is was very easy and quick to complete. Payroll Manager has been a dream to use and now wish we had been using it years ago!!!." May 2013
Ray Levy Accountant

"So far as I know this is the cheapest software on the market and it beats the others hands down. Very easy to use and I have never had need to call the help line, even with the transition to RTI. I use it for about 30 small clients and have recommended it to other clients as well. I wouldn't dream of looking anywhere else." May 2013

"I purchased Payroll Manager in March 2013 due to the impending RTI requirement. As an AIMS accountant my Franchise Head Office [network of of 270 Accountants] has accepted Moneysoft as an approved supplier and this is another reason why I purchased the product. Prior to this I used a payroll bureau and spreadsheets to process 36 client payrolls albeit most of the payroll were 1 to 5 employees. Payroll Manager is in my opinion a superb easy to use, totally user friendly system. I have been dealing with payrolls for over 40 years. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending it."

"I have just set up and commenced my own practice and needed payroll software. Payroll manager was recommended to me and I have to say I am absolutely delighted. Previously I was a partner in a larger practice and had never actually processed any payroll before, but Payroll Manager was so easy to set up and use. Even filing RTI returns which I was full of trepidation about doing, were so easy and were sent through straight away with no problem at all. I would recommend this software to anyone!!." May 2013

"I am absolutely over the moon with the program! I was using a competitive program that was also updated for RTI. My inertia over the past few years meant that I stuck with the poor performance of the competitor for too long. The new version cost me hours of time to discover that basically the new version for April 2013 DID NOT WORK! I have spent less time learning Moneysoft payroll, setting up all my employees details and doing the first month's pay calcs than it took me to finally discover that I must give up trying to use the old program. Essentially everything was done for April 2013 in about 3 hours, including validating that my RTI return will be correct! Most grateful for a great product. P.S. Yes, you are right in guessing that I was using [other provider] Instant Payroll." April 2013

"I have used {other provider] Payroll for a number of years now, and after yet another price increase I decided to look elsewhere. I came across Moneysoft on the internet and to be perfectly honest, it seemed a little 'too good to be true'. I was wrong.......... This program not only does exactly what you would expect from such a software package, but it is so easy to use. Sometimes ease of use can result in the software being less powerful or under performs in comparison with its competitors, but this is not the case here. I would highly recommend this product."

"I've used TAS for years, but didn't want to migrate to [other provider], so sought a new provider. This program is brilliant - so logical and simple to use. It does just what you want - crunches numbers, but has so much more included if needed. I wish I had discovered it years ago! It is cost effective in both annual fee and operating time and with all reporting on plain paper, no additional stationery costs either - so 10 out of10 from me. It would be great if future developments included an Andriod version, as this would make it totally portable." April 2013

"I changed to Moneysoft Payroll Manager as my previous payroll company were charging £285 + VAT for the annual update and helpline (for under 20 employees) in comparison to £56 + VAT with Moneysoft. The help line of the previous company had a waiting time of two and a half hours in March and April each year. Moneysoft Payroll Manager was very fast to download and simple to use. The import data from the previous payroll was excellent and allowed me to set up the new Moneysoft Payroll Manager in minutes. I rang the help line and the phone was answered immediately and they were very helpful. Moneysoft Payroll Manager does everything my previous payroll did and saved me £230 (every year). I wished I had changed to Moneysoft Payroll Manager earlier ." Mar 2013

"Payroll Manager is by far the best payroll software I have ever used. It is extremely user friendly, flexible and well designed. The help pages are a great payroll tutorial. I would love to see a facility added to enable the user to record notes on each payroll file, to be used, for example, as reminders of things which need to be done when the next payroll run is done. I use paper notes for this at the moment, but that sort of defeats the object of using computer software. Still the best though. " Mar 2013

"We changed from TAS payroll very reluctantly earlier this year. Not by choice but as [other software provider] had decided to scrap it, we had to look elsewhere. Little did we realise, it was like having slept rough in the arches to walking with the sun on our backs! Moneysoft is so flexible, intuitive and straightforward. We do payroll for hundreds of small firms and its a real joy now. I was prompted to have a go at the CIS module. Wow! Again, so logical. I have always used TAS books which was laborious with entering the subby`s invoice then posting in a special way, plus the reports were plain and poor. Again Moneysoft produces fabulous monthly statements and an employers payment summary. A m a z i n g." Feb 2013

"I have used Payroll Manager 100 to provide a payroll faciity for our clients, for about 8 years now. I have rarely had any problems and on these rare occassions (maybe 2 in 8 years) I have sent an e-mail with details and I have had a quick reply providing the simple corrections I needed to make. I have recommended Moneysoft payroll since I first started using it to other accountants and bookkeepers who also have found it very reliable and "does what it says on the tin"." Jan 2013

"Stunning program, by far the best low volume multi-company payroll program available, and it does full online CIS really well as a bonus. Like many others I swapped 8 or 9 years ago when a leading payroll software provider completely ruined year end and I have loved the program ever since. Don't even bother looking elsewhere there isn't a better program." Nov 2012

"I had long experience with another payroll software package but found that the pricing was becoming close to extortion. Having researched a few packages I decided to try payroll manager as it was on the HMRC compliant list. I have been delighted by how user-friendly it is and the value for money. It has considerably reduced the amount of time taken to complete the payroll each period to such a degree that I have introduced the package into a second client and will continue further." Sep 2012
Jes Holmes Managing Director
Holmes Accounting (Lincolnshire) Ltd
Software: Payroll Manager
"This program is very well featured and exceptional value for money. The reporting options are extremely wide and therefore excellent for client accounts preparation, especially where a trading year straddles parts of two tax years. You can print figures for any year or part of year which we often do for our working papers files. Payslips can be printed to plain paper or a number of pre-formatted form options (specialist stationery available from 3rd parties). Main weekly or monthly presentation is generally in the 'spreadsheet' style (all on view) for each employee or contractor, rather than just entering via single menu style entry boxes. We find that much easier to train clients and staff on and gives you a good overview to work with that reduces errors. Doing a small weekly payroll is minutes not hours of work.The help manual is comprehensive and within the program. Interestingly, we've noticed that our rare support calls are actually because there is so much choice of output; so you occasionally need a bit of hand-holding to find the right option! There are even draft contracts and policies which can be used as a basis for client support though, naturally, they are not intended to substitute for specialist personnel input. It covers PAYE and CIS and all associated electronic filing and verification requirements." Sep 2012
