It's really cool that they're very public about the things they've built (ACH formats, fixed width file gems etc.). They seem like a very friendly and open bunch of chaps with their customer's needs put first.
I'm surprised to see that they're solely ruby-based, though. Especially for an SOA setup. I tried building a payroll system in rails one time and didn't like it. That a dynamically typed language with strong metaprogramming was handling people's money really didn't feel right. Then again, tools like Grape (which looks awesome) must definitely outweigh that non-issue.
