Paycor is proud to announce 28 wins in the 2026 G2 Summer Awards, along with a TrustRadius 2026 Top Rated distinction. Together, these recognitions span some of our most-used and most-valued product areas from healthcare HR and benefits to talent acquisition, career development, and learning.
What makes these awards different from analyst rankings or vendor-submitted accolades: they come directly from the people who use Paycor every day. G2 bases its awards on verified customer reviews, satisfaction scores, and market presence. TrustRadius follows the same principle. When customers take time to share their experiences, and those reviews result in recognition like this, it reflects a genuine belief in the quality of Paycor’s solutions.
G2 is a leading software review marketplace that helps buyers make more confident decisions through authentic user feedback. Being honored in 28 categories — including several first-time wins — reinforces the strength and breadth of Paycor’s unified HCM platform.
