Tampa, FL May 23, 2010 PEOcompare.com, an unbiased PEO comparison and matching site, announced today the results of its PEO Services Selection Tool for 1st quarter, 2010. This comprehensive filter captures small business needs then presents the PEO's that can address those needs. This technology, proven effective over the last two years, easily automates the process of choosing the ideal PEO for your business, shortening the lengthy research and selection process.
The tool gives the business owner full control over his selection by allowing him to specify his own personal areas of greatest concern. Upon completion, he is immediately given a list of PEO companies ranked according to his specifications which he can easily review utilizing the various resources on the site.
An analysis of the first quarter data captured shows us the top 10 needs of small businesses today:

"Our PEO Services Selection Tool ensures that we have first-hand insight as to what the small business owner needs to be successful," states Carolyn Stoll, Marketing Director at PEOcompare.com. This list clearly shows that online capabilities, including payroll, benefits, and access of employee information are what small businesses are needing and asking for in today's economic environment. "Interestingly, when software began as a service, the #1 concern was privacy of data. While this is still important, it is apparent that the businesses today are less concerned about security and more focused on convenience. Business owners are now seeing the benefits of having access to information from anywhere," said Carolyn Stoll.
By completing and submitting the PEO Services Selection Tool or the Quick Compare Analysis, business owners are able to communicate exactly what their needs are.
