Why Buyers Leave Rippling
Rippling is modular pricing built for IT teams. Each feature -- payroll, benefits, device management, time tracking -- is a separate add-on. Companies that need the full suite pay significantly more than the base rate suggests.
Implementation in Rippling requires technical configuration of workflows, integrations, and automation rules. Your HR and IT teams own the setup, maintenance, and troubleshooting when automation breaks.
Rippling automates payroll steps but does not remove them. Your team still needs to understand the system well enough to catch errors, handle exceptions, and manage edge cases. That expertise requirement does not go away.

The BEG Difference
Common objection: "We are already mid-implementation with Rippling."
Rippling implementations can take weeks to configure workflows, test integrations, and train your team. BEG reviews your current setup, migrates or connects to your system, and runs a clean first cycle in 3-5 business days. No IT project. No workflow configuration. No training burden.
Common objection: "We just went through an implementation and cannot switch again."
If you are already in Rippling and do not want to move, BEG can manage your payroll operations inside Rippling. Your automation stays. Your portals stay. We take over the processing, exception management, and compliance monitoring so your team does nothing.
Common objection: "Rippling pricing is complicated and we are not sure what we need."
$25-$45 PEPM. That is the number. Payroll processing, all filings, W-2s, garnishments, direct deposit, new hire reporting, compliance monitoring, and employee paycheck support. One invoice. No module decisions. No per-feature activation. Your BEG contact handles the scope.
The Math
BEG managed payroll is $25-$45 per employee per month, all-inclusive. One flat rate that covers every cycle, every filing, every year-end form.
