ADP Resource (Discontinued) vs. SentricHR (SentricWorkforce)

ADP is best if you have a really knowledgeable client rep that has been your contact for multiple sessions. Otherwise, you are forced to reiterate the problems to multiple parties. If you have a dedicated staff member who is knowledgeable of your processes, then ADP is a good resource for payroll needs.

SentricHR works well with unusual situations in payroll - they understood that our payroll is not just a basic hourly/salaried situation and were able to create codes and functions to work with our exact needs.

• 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.

• Open Enrollment lets employees view and select the benefit they want for the following plan year. Sentric is easy to use and lets us in HR link their selection to their payroll records.
• Sentric allows HR and the employee to view their paychecks. They can look at one, or many at a time.
• When someone applies for a job via Sentric, their candidate records carry through to their employee record after we hire the person.

• The payroll function, while user friendly, was a little confusing starting out. Many codes had to be learned for certain things such as benefits.
• When running reports, the process was very easy to make a mistake requiring multiple tries to get it correct.

Incentivized

• Make it easier to determine which report works best for our needs
• Have the ability to create a custom report for specific instances
• Other than that, they're perfect!

I have a lot of experience and trust in this software package - actually any software package from ADP. The training that I have gotten over the years has always been complete and the representatives that I have had over the years are all EXCEPTIONAL! Looking back in the 20 plus years of experience, I can say truthfully there are only 1-3 persons who I would rather not have worked with at ADP. I find their customer service, and phone reps do their best to get the job done. This makes my job easier in the process.

Really.....I hate to keep repeating my self but I am very confident in any ADP software. They are worldwide and have proven their capabilities throughout the world

ADP is just a well known brand and is fairly affordable. Compared to other software such as Workday, it was a more affordable price point for our budget. However, if we had more resources and time to examine, Workday seems to offer a strong alternative to ADP in terms of payroll, HR, and financial systems. Overall though, there are more consultants knowledgeable about ADP which made it an easier choice for us

I haven't explored the other systems in great detail. IFS didn't appear as "user-friendly". Taleo seemed to not have the capabilities Sentric did.

• Definitely better customer service. When someone called in about their account, I was able to easily access the information and make any changes at a click of a button.

Incentivized

• Not applicable for our business
