I&#x27;m assuming they renamed because they lost the USPTO trademark case against Zendesk [1] or just decided they didn&#x27;t want to fight anymore.<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.forbes.com&#x2F;sites&#x2F;anthonykosner&#x2F;2014&#x2F;12&#x2F;20&#x2F;zendesk-and-the-art-of-trademark-maintenance&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.forbes.com&#x2F;sites&#x2F;anthonykosner&#x2F;2014&#x2F;12&#x2F;20&#x2F;zendesk...</a>

I like ZP (now Gusto), I really do, but their support over time has been lacking (and it feels like it&#x27;s degrading), and as a customer I&#x27;m growing increasingly concerned that they&#x27;re growing too fast to keep up.<p>Granted - I&#x27;m a tiny account (3 employees). That said, it&#x27;s frustrating that it takes weeks to get answers to questions (some simple, some less so). When I finally do get someone&#x27;s attention, the resolution is generally a good one, but it just feels like they&#x27;re flat-out understaffed on the support side - which is disconcerting when dealing with things like payroll, taxes, etc.<p>I certainly wish ZP all the best, and perhaps this expansion into new lines of business will help them hire more support staff... but a part of me feels like, &quot;guys, get your house in order first before your start expanding.&quot;

Yeah, my company has 3 overlapping products now.<p>Zenefits, zenpayroll, and indinero (bookkeeping &#x2F; accounting). They all offer some sort of employee onboarding and have their hands in payroll to a certain degree.<p>We seem to spend a lot of time syncing our employee records between all 3, it is not great.<p>Of those, I probably need zenefits the least of all of those, and I would consider switching to gusto&#x27;s service just to eliminate the complexity.

First off, congratulations to the team. This is a big change and I&#x27;m sure a huge amount of work went into making this happen.<p>I wonder what this says about the company&#x27;s focus. They started out focused on payroll, with the BI press release saying they had 20k customers out of millions of small businesses. So obviously a lot more to be done and they are off to a good start. Which raises a few questions:<p>Do they consider payroll &quot;solved&quot;? Payroll seems to be a pretty massive problem with as much to be done as when they started.<p>What are they bringing that Zenefits doesn&#x27;t? Zenefits does payroll and benefits as well, so if you are going to take them on directly I would have hoped to see a lot more about differentiators.<p>On the one hand, very exciting. On the other, I&#x27;d be worried that they are letting a huge competitor drive their actions. Payroll (to an outside) still seems to have massive potential.

One of the founders gave an amazing talk at Stanford&#x27;s Entrepreneurial Thought Leaders series:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;ecorner.stanford.edu&#x2F;authorMaterialInfo.html?mid=3432" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;ecorner.stanford.edu&#x2F;authorMaterialInfo.html?mid=3432</a><p>Worth listening to if you are interested in starting a company.

I really like the Zenpayroll product, but I wish they would focus on expanding into more states before adding benefits etc and trying to compete with Zenefits. This would prevent companies who have employees in multiple states outgrowing them and needing to switch to ADP.

Good for Zen... er Gusto. I interviewed for an engineering internship there when I was in college and really like everyone I talked with. They seemed to have a great culture and to be solving some pretty cool technical problems. I hope things continue to go well for them as they expand into the benefits market.

Interesting choice for a company trying to break into the HR space. It&#x27;s not clear how to pronounce it.<p>Is it -g&#x27;oo&#x27;stow- or -guh&#x27;st&#x27;oh-?

Huge branding change. Gusto does seem to me like a much better name than ZenPayroll. Wonder how much they paid for gusto.com...
