Everything was easy: setup. Payroll integration. Compliance. I was surprised at how easy a 401(k) could be. We needed a modern 401(k) option…I was happy when we migrated both our payroll to a new provider (Gusto) and 401(k) from ADP to Betterment. That was a lot to take on at one time, but Betterment was easy to get set up.”

Betterment offered a quick, almost a turn-key choice of a 401(k) plan for my small business. I've used Betterment 401(k) for three years now, and plan to continue using it going forward. I like seamless integration with Gusto Payroll used by my business. I also like that 401(k) loans are available for my employees. The price of service is reasonable, and annual compliance testing is done reliably and on schedule.”
