About Paychex Flex
Paychex Flex is the enterprise-grade payroll and HR platform from one of the oldest names in the business — Paychex has been processing payroll since 1971. It scales from solo entrepreneurs to companies with thousands of employees, making it the platform businesses grow into rather than out of. Paychex Flex includes payroll, benefits, time tracking, HR administration, and retirement plans. Its mobile app lets employees access pay stubs, PTO balances, and W-2s, and managers can run payroll from anywhere.
