Key Features

• Benefits Administration: The automated enrollment process ensures employees receive the right benefit packages. It also has the option of syncing benefits with payroll and insurance carriers. In addition, it provides employees with a self-service portal and access to certified benefit advisors. 
• Payroll: This feature provides users with the option of keeping their current payroll software and syncing data with GoCo. Capabilities include automated time tracking and PTO (including COVID-19 paid leave), calculated final paychecks and benefit deductions.  
• Employee Onboarding: The entire onboarding and talent acquisition process is done digitally. Managers can send customized offer letters, receive documents and allow new hires to enroll in self-service benefits. They can also assign onboarding tasks and set up payroll. 
• Time Tracking: This feature supports PTO tracking, adding holiday hours and calculating overtime synced with a timesheet so that employees are paid correctly. It provides reports about teams’ working hours. Employees can request PTO through this feature, while managers can approve PTO and automatically notify the employee about their remaining PTO.  
• HR Compliance: Companies can be sure they’re adhering to the latest benefits compliance regulations with tools that unify record keeping and streamline documents collection.  
• Security: GoCo operates on Heroku, a technology that grants peace of mind by providing security checks at every layer of the software to protect customers from breaches. 

Limitations

• The org-chart does not fit on the screen automatically, causing users to scroll to see different details.
• It’s not well integrated with third-party apps and specifically needs better integration with project management software.
