Regional PEO with strong SMB focus (merged with PrimePay 2025)
Our take
CoAdvantage is a solid regional choice, particularly strong in Florida and the Southeast. Their workers comp pooling is genuinely competitive, if you're in a higher-risk industry, the premium savings alone can justify the switch. The 2025 PrimePay merger is the wild card: ask your sales rep specifically about service-team continuity post-integration, and get any platform-roadmap promises in writing.
