Betterment makes it simple to manage your plan administration. This allows you to offer better 401(ks) to your employees quickly and easily, at a fraction of what most providers charge. We are your full-service partner and will do all the heavy lifting for you, from onboarding to ongoing administration to reporting and investments. Our personalized advice can help employees earn higher returns at different levels of risk. We will help them set up a personal retirement plan and suggest how much to save in which accounts. We can help employees take control of their finances so they can focus on being productive and fulfilled at work. We were frustrated by the lack of options for modern, simple-to-use retirement plans for our employees when we tried to find one. We used our retail investing platform to create our own 401(k).

    Makes benefits simple

    Date: Aug 17 2021

    Summary: Guideline was simple to explore, partner with, execute, and maintain. I'm really glad we found out about Guideline (through Gusto) as a retirement solution and we plan to continue to use them longterm.

    Positive: Guideline makes something incredibly complex feel really simple. Things are explained in plain terms and, even for a first time benefits administrator, it was easy to execute.

    Negative: Some employees might not like that there's a required 1% retirement contribution.

    Fees have increased, customer serivce decreased, no new features.

    Date: Sep 11 2023

    Summary: Spoken with Guideline several times over the years and each time I am left with the impression that our company is more of a burden than an asset.

    Last year they doubled their pricing, including adding fees for individual users. When I asked them what we received in return for paying more the answer was nothing.

    Called Guideline today. After waiting on hold for over 10 minutes I accepted the prompt for a call back saying I would not lose my spot in line Several hours later I received an email indicating they received my message with a link to their help section while I wait.

    So to sum it up, we are paying more, customer service has degraded, no new features or services, that benefit our company have been added (in years).

    Positive: Integrates with Gusto payroll services.
    Simplified 401k process through automated payroll deductions.

    Negative: Limited investment options.
    No reporting options to show 401k performance.
    No retirement planning features.
    Pricing doubled.
    No additional features or services have been added.
    Customer service is difficult to reach.
