ADP Resource vs QuickBooks Pro

• It is very simple to process payroll, even from home if needed. I once processed the payroll from Japan.
• I love that I can balance the payroll and send it knowing it is 100% correct.
• I can process payroll as late as 6pm and have it back the next day.
• I really like my ADP representative. I have had 2 and they are very knowledgeable and pleasant to work with.
• Speaking of the ADP representative.......No matter who answers the phone, if my rep is not available, they are all knowledgeable and even through they are not my assigned rep, they are all pleasant to work with.

• Expenses and accounts payable - QuickBooks Pro allows users to input bills, write checks, and post debit transactions easily. The Write Checks function helps new or inexperienced users by offering a familiar interface to input the transaction, while more experienced users have other options that allow faster entry, while still capturing the necessary information.
• Bank reconciliations - The software makes reconciling bank and credit card statements easy
• Customizable Chart of Accounts and classes - Users and take advantage of the highly customizable Chart of Accounts and Class feature to categorize income and expenditures and produce reports that are valuable to them. You are only really limited by how much detail you want to input to the transactions.

• My biggest peeve is....and they are aware of this - a new state is sometimes very difficult to set up. With all the different classifications in states back east, it can take days to get it set up correctly.

• Depending on the financial institution used connecting to automatically download transaction is tricky
• Renaming rules in the online version is not user-friendly and defaults on its own lumping most transactions together (IE: everything that comes in as a check # becomes renamed to the last vendor a check was written to & recorded)
• Desktop version is much more user friendly in general than the online version

• We currently use ADP Resource for payroll and some HR only. We have been approached for the 401k and insurance portion of ADP Resource but we have separate third party administrators for those.
• The customer service is outstanding. I would not change anything.
• I understand and agree that the employee's would benefit from viewing and making limited changes to their employee record and this will be approached in the next meeting we have with the president of the company.

• QuickBooks allows us to not need a full-time accountant or bookkeeper on our payroll. It's so easy and records everything we need that I can manage our entire accounting processes while doing many other things.
• By using QuickBooks Pro and Intuit for payroll, everything is captured in the same place. There is no need for manual entry to reconciliation with a payroll provider because it's all done electronically.
• QuickBooks Pro is cost-effective so not only does it manage our finances but it saves us money. So many small businesses and government contractors spend enormous amounts of money for financial systems that really aren't necessary. QuickBooks Pro does all the same things for a fraction of the cost.
