Not ideal for

How we evaluated Insperity (PEO)
This review rests on 15 facts checked against Insperity (PEO)’s official pricing pages and documentation, most recently on . We did not test the product hands-on: the score and the pros and cons use only those verified facts, as our methodology explains, and third-party ratings are quoted, never scored.
Our verdict
Insperity fits small and midsize businesses that want a full-service PEO with a dedicated service team: under co-employment it runs payroll and tax filings, maintains workers’ compensation coverage and sponsors the employee benefit plans. Its HR service charge is a fixed amount per employee that does not rise with raises, next to direct costs such as payroll taxes and benefits. It is less suited to buyers who want a published price or self-service software alone, since every solution is quoted and includes a service component.
