### 1/5 — Session Expired

*2021-10-04, version 6.4*

Whenever I am trying to login in , it gives an error “ Session has expired ! Please re-login to continue “ 

Please fix this issue.

### 1/5 — Unable to login

*2021-09-01, version 6.2*

I was able to log in before but suddenly stopped working. Always speeding “something went wrong”. 
Worst app ever.

### 1/5 — Can’t login with this app

*2021-08-08, version 6.0*

Although I can login with web portal, can’t log in with this app. Should new errors type every time I try to login. Uninstalling as it simply eats up the space in phone.

No option to download the PDF files in the app.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2021-03-31, version 5.4*

Don’t deserve even one star. Without a star we can’t submit the review so giving one.

Cannot download or save sallary slip even though save option is present

### 1/5 — So many bugs

*2020-05-07, version 3.4*

1. App crashes 
2. Not taking valid credentials 
3. App crashes after login 
4. So many other bugs

### 1/5 — Worse than expected

*2020-04-30, version 3.2*

This app is worse than expected, if I tried to login for the first time also it says “session expired, login again”.. how come session expires when I never logged in. Team most of the users are facing the problems so what’s the point of developing an app and releasing.

### 1/5 — Login issues

*2020-04-06, version 3.1*

Despite repeated feedback from various users there hasn’t been any fix rolled out for session time out issue during login.

### 1/5 — Session Expired issue

*2020-01-16, version 2.8*

I had tried login multiple times but it doesn’t let me in and throws an error - “Session Expired, please try to login again” something.
Not of any use when we can’t even login inside.

### 1/5 — Worst App

*2019-12-31, version 2.8*

One of the most worst app ever used, today is 31 dec 2019 but in app its showing 2020, it shows there are number bugs in this app also it asks for login again n again if you out from the app just for seconds also. Please don’t launch ur app without fixing these minor bugs. Not at all user friendly.

### 1/5 — Not able to login

*2019-12-28, version 2.8*

Everytime I try to login it says Session expired. Have not been able to use the app even once.

I am new corporate user and i am able to login. Keeps on saying something went wrong or session expired

### 1/5 — useless - full of bugs

*2024-04-28, version 7.2*

login error - every time you need to log in with credentials 

Information error - it's not give you full
Access as a website provide.

No updates - there is no update and improvement on the app

### 1/5 — Bogus App!

*2024-02-18, version 7.1*

The payslip view isn’t visible.  Once you click payroll from sidebar - nothing will be visible.
Just personal details visible.
Re installing several times didn’t solve the issue!

### 1/5 — Payroll section is not working

*2023-12-23, version 7.0*

Tried multiple times after login.,Payroll page is not working

### 1/5 — Payroll Tab Not working

*2023-03-19, version 6.7.2*

What’s the point of the app if the payroll tab is only not working, been more than a month and still this has not been fixed

### 1/5 — Its become useless now

*2023-02-27, version 6.7.2*

The payroll tab is not at all working, without that this app is nothing.

### 1/5 — The company does not care about tax payers

*2023-01-06, version 6.7.2*

At last moment they declared that HRA rent receipts will be only accepted from work location in HCM portal when everyone is practically working from home. Shame.

### 1/5 — Very Poor Platform - Worst One Used.

*2022-03-14, version 6.6*

Excelity ESS is a product which has only cons and no good points to think of.
Some of the biggest shortcomings are:
1.) Very poor, indeed not User support available. There is a bot available at the login page which is good for nothing.
2.) No user feedback/rectification mechanism - once any submission is done the BackOffice team rejects the submissions at will with no mechanism to rectify the initial submission. Futile time wasting rework for very trivial items too.
3.) The user session management is highly pathetic and the session refreshes upon refreshing the page(once logged in, even after an hour of in activity).
4.) The system takes 1-2 months after the start of the Financial Year to open the portal for submissions and lags too much behind in rolling out new government rules for IT(deduction and declaration both).
5.) No improvement/ change to the first generation UI design since years which requires the users to jump between sections to perform similar tasks.

All in all, an avoidable platform if your’s is an employee centric organisation which doesn’t want the employees to have the payroll system as a reason for frustration :) 

Really poor !

### 1/5 — Session expired

*2022-02-09, version 6.6*

Login session expired on each login attempt, it’s annoying if we retry because it giving same error.
