ADP
RUN is perfect for the small company that has just a handful of employees and with not a lot of payroll knowledge. However if you have very complicated PTO policies, multiple company groups or more then one location with a shared FEIN RUN Powered by ADP® still does a great job but you would want to consider a different ADP platform. Also if you want a great workers compensation policy I would suggest trying ADP work comp pay as you go. As this gets calculated with every payroll so no additional reporting anywhere. Another great integrated product is the retirement packages that are offered again ADP handles all of the setup and payments with no additional work on the clients end of things.

Best suited for automated HR process and effective employee engagement. Not so appropriate for companies who have very specific processes and require customizations that are out of the ordinary.

Cons
ADP
  • 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.

  • Zimyo has room for integrations.
  • Layout is simple but can be better in terms of design, looks a bit like too simple.
  • LinkedIn Integration and offer letter management.

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.

Usability
ADP
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!

Reliability and Availability
ADP
I don't think I have ever encountered error codes or 404 error screens when trying to access RUN ADP. I run payroll for the company every other week and I have had no issues accessing the website, everything saves and updates when it's needed. Our employees use the app on their phones and they have not had any issues either other than just a basic update of the app occasionally

Performance
ADP
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.

I appreciated having that issue finally take care of. it was extremely disheartening to see the issue had not been resolved. I also had my employees looking to me and thinking I was not trying to resolve the issue so it reflected poorly on my character. I do not know if i was because of a miscommunication, but nonetheless I was happy it was taken care of

Our rep was on a zoom with us and one other person from RUN ADP showing us the layout and how to access everything. we mainly use it for payroll and reports so any questions we had they both were insightful and able to help us navigate the site. The training process was a success and we have had any issues since using.

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

I switched from Quickbooks Online Payroll to RUN Powered by ADP®. RUN Powered by ADP® provided amazing support for set-up and transferring over information. In addition, their support continues to be fantastic after three years. I can reach out to them any time I have a question and know I will receive prompt and helpful support. This was my primary reason for switching! But since using RUN Powered by ADP® I have come to appreciate the automatic tax filing and garnishment payments. They save me a lot of time! My state passed a paid sick leave law this year. RUN Powered by ADP® kept me informed of how those regulations affected my payroll. They offered personal support to adjust to the new policies.

Scalability
ADP
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.

Return on Investment
ADP
  • 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.
