What is Zoho Payroll?
Zoho Payroll is a cloud-based payroll solution built for businesses that want to manage compensation, taxes, and compliance directly within the Zoho suite. For U.S. users, the software now covers all 50 states, supporting full-service W-2 payroll, automated tax filings, and direct deposit.
While contractor support and third-party integrations are still lacking, its clean interface and direct syncing with Zoho Books eliminate many double-entry errors and manual processes. Businesses using Zoho People can also benefit from shared employee records, creating a smoother HR-to-finance workflow.
Why we rate it "Maybe"
Zoho Payroll finally covers all 50 states, but that’s not the full picture. The lack of 1099 support and limited flexibility means that for many businesses—especially those with mixed employment types—there are better options. If you're fully embedded in the Zoho ecosystem and only need basic W-2 payroll, it’s worth exploring. Otherwise, tools like Gusto or ADP may serve you better.
