Eilisys has great products, made by an awesome team. We had a payroll software before this and it was terrible and when we went out in market to search for a new payroll software then Eilisys team showed up out of nowhere in competition to big boys of software world and they came so strong that we had no reason to why not take payroll software from Eilisys.
