XcelHR is the best PEO service provider

We have switched to XcelHR from ADP TotalSource over a year ago and couldn't be happier. After extensive research and demos of many other PEO service providers, XcelHR was an absolute winner for our organization. There are really no complaints I can think of, and our experience has been only positive. As a Director of HR having partnered with XcelHR, I highly recommend it to companies looking for a top notch yet tailored solution for all HR services, from payroll processing to benefits management. Everything that was promised to use has been delivered, from enhanced efficiency to cost effectiveness.

XcelHR: Human Touch, Business Success

I’m delighted to share our glowing experience with XcelHR, our PEO partner for over three years. In a world where personalized service is rare, XcelHR stands out for the exceptional people behind their services. Their team is accessible, professional, and genuinely dedicated to our success, making them a true partner.

Our account representative, Ben Mann, is a class act—one of the best salespeople I’ve ever worked with. His attentiveness, integrity, and commitment to our needs are unmatched. The entire XcelHR team provides expert support in payroll, benefits, and compliance, allowing us to focus on growing our business and supporting our employees. Their human touch helps us offer top-tier benefits and stay compliant with ease.

For any business seeking a people-first HR partner, XcelHR is second to none. Thank you, Ben, and the XcelHR team, for your outstanding support!

Sincerely,
Areg Chobanian.
CEO

XcelHR PEO Review

I used the services of one of the divisions of XcelHR for almost 5 years. They had the best health plan available in area, workman's compensation, payroll, and other services I did not have the time to create. They always paid on time. In 4.5 years of using them, they never once made a mistake! I highly recommend them. They are the best.

When I first signed up with Xcel…

When I first signed up with Xcel my sales person guranteed a personalized experience and swore Xcel was equipped with an amazing staff who would take care of my needs upon request. Since then, the local sales person no longer works there and the HR that was assigned to me also no longer works there. Everything has gone downhill since then. I have been assigned 3 different HR representatives. I no longer get prompt response to my requests. I feel the employee/employer portal could use some improvement and provide better resources right from there instead of having to ask for forms via email. I am seriously considering moving our business elsewhere.
