How long have you been in business?

We formed HR Solutions, Inc. in February, 1991, but we have been creating relocation tracking programs since 1985. To date, our product has tracked relocation information for more than four million transferees. 


What support do you provide?

We provide free programming support (bug fixes and updates) ourselves. We also answer questions about how to use the many Tally-Up! features and options.

We answer all calls ourselves.  No phone menus, and rarely a voice mail.  Not only do we support our customers, we learn from them.  In 2005, we made more than 30 mid-year enhancements to the program based on customer needs.  We asked our customers about their wishes for the system, and added many new features in Tally-Up!. 

We stay connected with our customers until their problem is resolved.  We have been known to stay on the phone for hours while a network glitch was diagnosed and resolved.

Many times our customers  have expressed their surprise about how responsive we are to their needs.  Our success depends entirely on your satisfaction.  If you have a problem, we have a problem, even if it's not our fault. 

We never charge for this support.  Never.

In addition to technical support, our partner, Art Crystal of A Crystal Solution provides free telephone relocation tax law help and advice for Tally-Up! customers.  His organization also provides on-site consultation and training for a very reasonable fee.

Do you provide training?

We provide "how to" training through our telephone support.  We have spent hours with customers (especially new customers) "walking through" our program.  We love helping users achieve their goals.  

In addition, our partner, Art Crystal of  A Crystal Solution offers full, on-site training classes. 


Do you do data entry for your clients?

No, but we know some good people who do, and will gladly recommend them.


Does Tally-Up! adhere to the current federal tax laws?

Yes.  And if the tax laws change throughout the year, we provide an automatic update to keep you current.  

Will we get state tax updates throughout the year?

Yes.  Absolutely.  Automatically.  Immediately.  Never a charge.


How about interfaces between Tally-Up! and our payroll systems?

We provide a free utility to import data into the Tally-Up! database.  Further, Tally-Up! has the ability to export data for import into your systems without special programming.

What do you charge? 

Tally-Up! transferee licenses are priced at $40.00 each.  Unused licenses will be honored in the future.
This price is guaranteed not to change through 2008!

How much for the Tally-Up! program itself?

There is no charge for the Tally-Up! software. You pay only for the transferee licenses.

I've heard that some programs can calculate gross-ups as many as ten different ways. How many ways can Tally-Up! calculate gross-ups?

Gross-up calculations in Tally-Up! are determined by your Tally-Up! Company Options. There are 13 options in Tally-Up! that produce more than 200,000 gross-up methodologies. Over 90 percent of our users use the default settings, but there is virtually no limit to the control you have over gross-up calculation.
