Reduction in TCO
For traditional on-site security software, TCO includes a high upfront software license cost and software implementation cost coupled with a high maintenance cost. In the case of cloud, cloud vendors are responsible for the implementation, maintenance, updates, and backup of software, thereby reducing the need for internal IT administration.
“In addition, the pricing model of cloud-based payroll software is based on the pay-per-use model, where customers pay according to their use of the services, as opposed to a traditional on-site model that requires a one-time substantial capital investment and ongoing operational costs. Cloud-based payroll software eliminates the need to incur connection-related expenditure because it is offered with a broad range of connection options,” says Amrita.
Increasing adoption of SaaS-based payroll software
Enterprises are deploying software-as-a-service (SaaS)-based payroll software as it is economical and improves the overall efficiency of the payroll management processes. It has made remote access to data and services easier through a web-browser without additional installation and management of application software.
The growing acceptance of SaaS-based payroll can be attributed to its advantages over the traditional payroll process like short implementation time. This reduces implementation cost and improves the returns on investment for end-users. The cloud-based payroll software enables enterprises to reduce time, cost, and errors associated with day-to-day compensation administration, management, and planning.
Growing demand for automated payroll management
The demand for automated payroll management is one of the major drivers of the market. The automation of payroll planning help enterprises to simplify processes and reduce paperwork. It also offers a centralized place for managing all tasks, which saves administration costs and time.
The implementation of cloud-based payroll software is gaining prominence among all size of enterprises because it is helping them to gain greater transparency into rewards and performance of employees. The software enables enterprises to perform total payroll analysis. With the automation of payroll process, enterprises are moving away from manual processes and dealing with cumbersome and error-prone spreadsheets. It also ensures compliance with corporate payroll policies with industry, state, and federal mandates.
