Louisville, KY -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/02/2011 -- Many people who start their own successful companies are intelligent, have field experience and an entrepreneur spirit to get things done. However, when it comes to accounting, and in particular payroll software, they often stumble. The new ezPaycheck 2011 Payroll Software from halfpricesoft.com is released in time to help small businesses and accountants to handle the latest tax changes on Tax Relief Act signed by President Obama.

Millions of workers will see their take-home pay rise during 2011 because the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 provides a two percentage point payroll tax cut for employees, reducing their Social Security tax withholding rate from 6.2 percent to 4.2 percent of wages paid. This reduced Social Security withholding will have no effect on the employee’s future Social Security benefits

IRS asks that employers start using the new withholding tables and reducing the amount of Social Security tax withheld as soon as possible in 2011 but not later than Jan. 31, 2011.

"For more than ten years I was a programmer and consultant," says Dr Ge. "During that time I discovered many small business owners often had one thing in common, regardless of their industry: They were afraid to touch new accounting applications and payroll software programs because they were usually too big or too complex for their needs."

With that in mind, Dr Ge went to work on what he calls a simple but effective program that's easy-to-use and geared to small business payroll or payroll tax issues. He also adds that many accounting software programs are bloated with features that the small business users don't need and never use.

Not only does this make the software bulky to operate, explains Dr Ge, but it also drives up the price of the software. For example, some programs can retail for around $700 compared to his latest version ezPaycheck Payroll software 2011 for just under $100. For many small business users, they simply don't need many of the functions associated with such larger programs.

Dr Ge is so certain that small businesses and non-profits will find the benefits of ezPaycheck 2011 that Halfpricesoft.com offers a free trial. For 30 days users can try all the features free of charge before they decide buy it. In addition, they also offer three other creations for the small business owner - ezCheckPrinting, ezTimeSheet and ezW2, which Dr Ge says are also easy to use for owners who aren't accounting or I.T. experts. Visitors can also find checks, payroll supplies and free items like invoice templates or packing slip templates at the site.

"For the majority of small businesses in the world there really hasn't been a simple, dependable payroll program until ezPaycheck.

So it's a great feeling knowing that we save small businesses money on their payroll software needs. What's even better, though, is knowing we make their life less frustrating and save them much needed time."
