## Care to compare?

### 1. Rippling integrates fully with key 3rd party applications

Paycom severely limits your ability to integrate with third-party applications. Data can be pushed out from Paycom, but typically data from third-party applications cannot be pushed into Paycom. This drawback disconnects your employee data from other systems, limiting everything from data quality to workflows to reports.

**Features**

- Paycom can push data into third-party apps
