Customer Support Review from Maria Maidana
Helpware has been a trusted partner for SquadLocker for several years now for customer success. Our Customer Onboarding Team continues to shine through every administrator that interacts via our Live Chat channel for store help. Anzhelika is my Onboarding Lead and we work hand in hand in making any and all decisions for team enhancements. She delights both DIY and Enterprise administrators across multiple channels here at SquadLocker. I would not be as successful without Anzhelika by my side. I forsee using Helpware for years to come!

Nathaniel Ru Co-Founder at Sweetgreen

Big Data Analytics Review from Nathaniel Ru
We partnered with Kanerika to support our Big Data Analytics initiatives and augment our internal data engineering team. As our data needs continued to grow, we needed experienced professionals who could quickly integrate with our team and help us improve data processing, reporting, and analytics capabilities. Our experience with Kanerika was very positive from start to finish. Their team was knowledgeable, responsive, and easy to work with. They took the time to understand our requirements, listened carefully to feedback, and adapted quickly whenever priorities changed. The engineers they provided integrated smoothly with our existing team and consistently delivered quality work. One thing that stood out was their responsiveness. Whenever we had questions, requests, or needed adjustments, their team reacted quickly and ensured issues were addressed without unnecessary delays. Communication remained clear throughout the engagement, which made collaboration straightforward and efficient. The project outcomes met our expectations, and the additional expertise helped us move faster on several data-related initiatives. Overall, Kanerika proved to be a reliable partner for both Big Data Analytics and Staff Augmentation, and we would be happy to work with them again in the future.

Big Data Analytics Review from Steven Poelman
Kanerika made a team for us to discuss the details and develop Power BI project. 3 personal dashboards were also planned and designed. Firstly the architecture of the system was created and implemented. The dashboards for heads of departments were developed and tested by the reconciliation dashboard too. Finally we got the staff training for interactive analytics dashboards usage. Power BI system has highlighted the efficiency of our working process. After tracking the efficiency we rose the sales for 20%, offer more client oriented service, and have budget prediction. Professional team service for great cost. Kanerika showcased awesome automation of business analysis and regularly updated reports.
David Abelyan Founder at Cake Mortgage Corp
5.0★
Big Data Analytics Review from David Abelyan
The Kanerika team helped us create online meeting capabilities to meet with candidates online, view video profiles and message. All these online features are great for our application but what makes our solution unique is that all these are tied to the candidate profile, hiring position organizational needs and overall organizational profile. This creates a strong bond and trust between the organization and the candidate.We wanted a platform to build long term relationships between organizations and their immediate and future needs and candidates who may want to explore opportunities now or build a relationship for a future opportunity. Kanerika worked with our team to understand our changing requirements and delivered technical solutions incrementally using an agile approach. Organizations can store and update their profiles, job requirements and track each hiring process.Their philosophy of investing in clients and view of client success as their own was unique. Everyone uses the long term relationship as a tagline but Kanerika actually lived up to it.

De TheBrat Review from Google

De TheBrat's Review Sourced from Google
We were introduced to KDG back in October 2024. They were recommended by a sister company of ours. Our goal was to transition from multiple programs to one program to help streamline and automate as many processes as possible. In order to accomplish this, we needed a company like KDG to help with the customization of the program to accommodate the different needs of the different roles within our organization. They've spent so much time with us, starting with each employee to understand what they need - They've truly been a partner. I would recommend KDG to ANYONE wanting to transition into a simplified system where efficiency and transparency is key.

The entire KDG team is truly exceptional. From start to finish, they made what could have been an overwhelming website upgrade experience seamless. Their guidance, responsiveness, and professionalism truly set them apart. We’ve relied on KDG for all of our website needs, and they consistently deliver. Their communication is clear, prompt, and thoughtful, and it’s clear they’re genuinely invested in our success. Everyone we’ve worked with has been not only highly professional, but also a real pleasure to collaborate with.

What should I look for when hiring a payroll company in the United States?
When hiring a payroll company in the United States, look for the following attributes to verify its reliability and credibility:
Relevant experience: Seek case studies similar to your business structure and industry
Regulatory knowledge: Verify its understanding of the geographic and industry-specific tax, labor, and payroll regulations regarding your business
Client reviews: Request verifiable client references and reviews to assess service quality and customer satisfaction
Tech stack: Check if the payroll, accounting, and HR solutions can scale and integrate with your system
Clear processes: Assess if it has a structured payroll process, including tax filing, error resolution, and compliance checks
Transparent reporting: Look for clear, accurate, and timely payroll reporting
Reliable support: Ensure access to a dedicated support team, available 24/7 or during extended hours for quick resolution and emergency cases
Up-to-date knowledge: See if its articles, blogs, and other content demonstrate understanding of the latest laws and regulations
Compliance standing: Examine if the US payroll company adheres to IRS and DOL regulations for its own operations and employees, as this reflects its ability to manage your company’s payroll activities
What factors affect the pricing of payroll services in the United States?
The key factors that affect payroll services in the United States include:
Company size: Payroll companies conventionally charge per employee, making bigger team sizes more expensive.
Service scope: Tax filing, benefit administration, and year-end reporting are often considered an add-on to the base fee.
Service frequency: Weekly or bi-weekly payroll schedules require more resources than a monthly schedule, resulting in higher costs.
Compliance requirements: Global, multi-state, and industry-specific regulations (e.g., union rules and healthcare) add to the complexity of payroll computation.
Support and service level: Higher-tier services, such as a dedicated account manager or 24/7 human support teams, have premium fees.
Technology stack: Data migration, system configuration, and employee training usually appear as one-time setup fees.
On average, you can expect to pay a monthly base fee of $50-$80 and an additional $6-$12 per employee per month.
How can I verify the credentials of a United States payroll company?
You can verify the credentials of a United States payroll company by:
Analyzing its use and knowledge of the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System
Checking its Employer Identification Number (EIN) and registration in the Secretary of State
Assessing the company’s IRS and DOL track record
Asking about its PayrollOrg membership and individual team certification (e.g., Fundamental Payroll Certification (FPC) and Certified Payroll Professional (CPP
Ensuring the company has Certified Public Accountants (CPA) on its team
Seeing if its SOC2, ISO, BBB, and other certifications are up to date
What red flags should I avoid when selecting a payroll company in the United States?
When selecting a payroll company in the United States, avoid the following red flags:
Outdated knowledge on the state and federal labor and tax laws
No proven track record in your industry and business locations, including case studies and client references
Overwhelmingly negative reviews and poor customer service
History of missed filing deadlines, deposit dates, and data inaccuracies
Ambiguous payroll and mid-year onboarding processes
Weak data security practices
Lack of error ownership
Lack of pricing transparency
What questions should I ask a United States payroll company before hiring?
Ask these questions before hiring a United States payroll company to gauge their expertise:
What is your experience in handling multi-state and global employees?
How do you stay up to date with the latest regulatory issues and changes?
Can you provide case studies and client references of businesses similar to ours?
What technologies do you use, and how will you integrate them into my system?
What is your approach to compliance, security, and error resolution?
