Small Business Payroll Software

Archive for March, 2010

I am starting a small business and I will not have more than 2 employees and from time to time I will have to hire an independent contractor. What is a good software program which will allow me to print the check stubs and checks as well as print out the w-2 and 1099 at the end of the year.

What is the difference between payroll software and a payroll service?
Im a business studies student and wondered whether the only difference is that a payroll service is internet-based? Or is there more to it? Is this the case for all payroll services? Any advantages and disadvantages of each type of payroll managing method would be very helpful. Thank you.
