Cristine was very helpful with any questions and communication was excellent.
Really easy to use and the chat function is really helpful for quick answers.
Collegia is really easy to use and compared to other free payrolls, support is available via AI and human to human chat. I've been lucky enough to get an answer within the same hour. I am considering the premium package.
Very easy to use and really good customer service if I did get stuck. First time every using payroll and managed it really well with fantastic website.
I had an issue with closing my year end, tried getting on a chat and had very quick help, problem was resolved. Much better than most of my chat assistance experiences
I just wanted to share how impressed I’ve been with Collegia. I was initially a little anxious about transferring five businesses across, but the software made the whole process really straightforward.
It’s very intuitive and requires minimal steps, which means I can manage everything quickly and efficiently.
Really pleased I made the switch, and thanks to the team for their support throughout.
This company is amazing. Their staff, especially Cri and Lisa answer chat messages very quickly and efficiently making my life much easier.

Once you get the payroll set up it is easy to use. I did have a few teething issues to start with as some employees didn't want to be in the pension scheme and it wasn't clear that the employee has to remove themselves from the scheme and the employer can't. The help box is very quick at replying to questions as well. I was looking at switching over to a paid software, but they both are pretty similar. I am going to try the pro version to see if it is worth the small monthly payment, but this is still a lot cheaper than the alternative paid software.

Collegia FreePayroll gets 5 stars from me! I was completely lost setting up payroll as a total beginner, but Cri was amazing - patient, clear step-by-step help, and sorted all my confusion quickly. Couldn't have done it without her. Highly recommend!

The product is really easy to use, and suits my purpose perfectly. The support is also extremely helpful and human agents are on hand to talk you through any problems or questions you may come across to give you a very quick and easy to follow resolution.

I would highly recommend this service. It is a great way to do your staff payroll, particularly like me who has a small business. There's no need to pay for an accountant to do the same job. Also, the advisors are very helpful if you get stuck. An advisor named Cri, got me out of a bind, giving me clear and excellent advice when I got stuck.

I've just started using Collegia FreePayroll. I am using the free version and it is simple to use and does everything I need. I had some issues transferring over from my previous provider and the customer service has been excellent. They have fixed all the problems that I created in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend this software.

I have been using this website for a few months now and I find it excellent. I use the free version and it has all the features I need for our small company. The customer service is excellent, very helpful and always available. Today I accessed the chat service and Cri helped me resolve the minor issue that 1 of my employees had. Highly recommend this company.
