RUN Powered by ADP® vs. Blue Marble Global Payroll

I am very happy with ADP services and have recommended the platform many times without issue. We have stayed with them for many years because the service has served us well. There are many choices for how many services you would like to integrate so it can be great for many types of employers

It's an amazing self-service tool that allows you to go and check your payroll details and benefits, you can navigate easily between different periods. you can print a copy of your paycheck. It allows you to change your bank account details. Sometimes the tool is not very responsive and has some elements off.

• Has experts who are knowledgeable in all payroll related needs
• Allows you to quickly and easily make changes to individual employee data

• I would like to see a change in the payroll processing so that when you have to save for later, you don't have to reenter all the information you have already entered.
• Make it easier for the employees to track their used vacation and PTO hours.

It is much better than the payroll system I used previously. The integrations that RUN has for on-boarding new hires are very convenient when they work properly. It saves a tremendous amount of time being able to email a link to new employees that allows them to enter much of their own demographic information. Payroll feature alerts me when someone's pay is significantly less or more than usual.

I have been using this system for years and they have actually made it easier and easier. The system is always making great upgrades that don't necessarily require any additional information or training. I love when I log in and see a new feature or button that I get to use to make my life easier!

We've had very little issue with RUN availability, only a couple times there were outages when least expected which occurred on our actual payroll due date

ADP Run loads a bit slowly at times, once I put in my credentials. However, that said, I think my perception of the time it takes is impacted by our "instant gratification" expectation of being able to get into everything quickly.

At times it takes a few minutes to reach someone and sometimes the ADP automated voice prompt does not recognize my name when I say it. Also, sometimes I am forwarded to different departments and I have to explain my issue 2 or 3 times. It is hard to know whether it is an ADP Run/payroll processing issue versus an ADP Time and Attendance issue. Over the last year or so that I have called ADP, sometimes I am left on hold for a very long time.

they helped up with the 1st payroll after that we were fine - it is very user friendly- they wanted to be sure everything had imported correctly.

very easy to learn i think it took maybe one payroll to have it down and we were up and running

Make sure there's plenty of time between payrolls for the implementation and be sure to test all the manually inputted fields.

I have looked at both of these products and they both have great services but the support I have received from ADP really keeps me here. My rep is amazing and I honestly have not seen anything on another platform that would make me change at this time.

I have not used similar software before BlueMarble, before the implementation I used to receive a deposit slip for my paycheck, having said that I can express that Blue Marble is a great tool

Every summer, we hire three new college interns who have to be entered into the system. They can enter their information themselves, which takes a load off me. The onboarding is quite straightforward, and today's college kids are techy enough to be able to understand it.

• The costs add up with all the services such as running payroll, adding timekeeping, running background checks, and mailing w-2's.
• We save money on background checks because the first two are free.
• We lower risk of employee time, penalties, and lawsuits by allowing RUN Powered by ADP® to handle so much of the payroll such as calculations and tax reporting.
