Powerful Enough for Large Companies

Paying employees weekly or biweekly has been simplified.
Paying employees weekly or biweekly has been simplified.
Pros
I've used a few payroll companies during my time but ADP always seems to be the most dependable and reliable.
Cons
With convenience is going to come cost. However, the newer level additions have made programs more customizable and tailored to individual business owners.

Overall satisfied with ADP, but switching to another provider that has a better timekeeping tool to save me ttime and money.
Pros
Easy to use and get up to speed. Simple and easy to run payroll. Love that the system reminds you when you need to run payroll. Support is also good when needed. Most questions are answered quickly. Love not having to worry about filing payroll taxes, etc. ADP does all this for you which saves a small business owner lots of time that would spent on these things.
Cons
Timekeeping app was not great and expensive compared to other payroll providers. The integration with QuickBooks is clunky and makes it hard to categorize payroll the way we need to track it for costs.

Over all its a great system that is easy to operate on a day to day basis and to stay complain with needed paperwork.
Pros
I love the HR, Payroll features the most. I also love that you can start an employee and have them update any need information remotely.
Cons
The reports can be a lot to take in and we have to add 2 payroll reports together when we do quarterly reports as some are from the previous year.

My overall experience with ADP RUN was phenomenal, not only because I loved the user-friendly site that made my life as the administrator so much easier, but the customer service I received was top-notch! I had my own personal representative every step of the way. Any time I needed anything and reached out whether it was via email, text, or phone I would get an immediate response. I loved RUN so much that I made multiple referrals to them. Did you know that you can earn gift cards that you can use anywhere when you refer someone who signs up with ADP?! And each time you refer another person/business the amount of the gift card increases!!
Pros
What I like most about the ADP RUN software is how user-friendly it is. You can literally be a first-time user with no instruction at all and successfully execute any task. The way the site is laid out makes it very easy to find what you're looking for. If you're not 100% sure what it is that you need but you have an idea you can even type a keyword into the search and all of the options associated with that word will pop up and trust me, you'll answer will be there!
Cons
The thing that I liked least about ADP Software was the GPS tracking feature. It does offer a feature that will show you the location of the employee when they clock in and out but that's it. For my business I really needed more out of this feature like geo-fencing for each job location and for me to be able to get an alert if the employee clocked in/out outside of the job location. ADP RUN does not offer those additional features.

Paychex FlexReasons for Choosing RUN Powered by ADP
With Heartland Payroll I received only payroll processing and that's it. Sure, it was extremely inexpensive, but I got no other support from them. After I switched to ADP RUN I found out that there were so many things that I wasn't doing for my company that I should've been. Because of the lack of guidance from Heartland I was truly missing out.Switched From
Heartland Payroll+Reasons for Switching to RUN Powered by ADP
What made me choose ADP RUN over other payroll processing providers was the customer service I would receive for my money (which isn't expensive at all) as opposed to paying close to nothing for a payroll service that gave me no benefits whatsoever.Response from ADP
