    ADP
    As a whole, I love ADP SmartCompliance. It's very useful for managing taxes, wages, invoicing/fundings, wage garnishments, tax credits, and more. If the tax dashboard in ADP WFN works appropriately, that could replace the tax management portion; however, I think it works a lot better (as of now) in ADP SmartCompliance.

    Cons
    ADP
    • Local Tax Help - Mainly PA employees. I wish there was an easier way to see that we have the employees setup correctly.
    • Tickets not in emails - What I mean is that they have a ticket system so that you can talk to your account manager, but there is no easy way to then pull up those tickets like you would if it were in emails. Sometimes we want to see how we handled something before and it gets tricky.

    Usability
    ADP
    For the most part, one can get in and learn how to navigate the system by just clicking on one of the suject areas. If you have a good clientrepresentative, they will inform you of new features/functionality and give you a quick demo. This is helpful for one to go back in and navigate to learn how it works and usefulness.

    Reliability and Availability
    ADP
    Availability is good, with only one or two instances of not being able to access the system at all which were quickly fixed. Some features do not work correctly from time to time, such as the "Help" function or the "Sync" function.

    Performance
    ADP
    If ADP is having issues, they communicate the problem within the solution once you log in. They also communicate that the issue will be fixed promptly. Reports run efficiently and in a reasonable amount of time. Also, the reports allow for various reporting types to be produced like a PDF or a Microsoft Excel file.

    ADP
    As mentioned in the last comment, everyone and everything has been great. However sometimes you get one person that I feel can bring a score down and the current dedicated tax representative I have I do not feel is very supportive.

    Online Training
    ADP
    Online training give us more flexible on timing. We always have a pack schedule and not able to attend training in person. Online training with recording is a good source for us especially we can review it again and again. The down side is we are unable ask question in person

    Implementation Rating
    ADP
    I wasn't too hands on with integration portion of this product so I can't completely give an honest answer to that. I have been told that the training improves alot for each individual as they go through the process and it improves success. These individuals are able to do alot more than me in regards to implementation.

    ADP
    ADP SmartCompliance is the most complete automated solution for compliance, bar none. I have used many compliance software suites, and they fall short in different areas that ADP has honed in on and made their strength. Regulatory nightmares are a lot to untangle, but the efficacy of having so many documents within a few keystrokes makes all of the difference.

    Scalability
    ADP
    ADP has the ability to scale across departments. This was found to be true when we rolled out the wage payment solution. ADP users are able to view their pay stubs on their phones and/or computers. This wage payment portal offers W2 storage and paystub storage for access at any time by an employee.

    Return on Investment
    ADP
    • No real change in workload or time saved from when we paid and filed ourselves because we choose to validate returns amounts to ensure accuracy. If anything, we overall spend more time with tax than we did before when doing this work manually.
    • Compliance risk is a wash compared to when we were filing ourselves.
    • There is less up-front rush such as quarter-end to get returns out but workload is spread out over time as we validate after the fact without the same time pressure.
    • Loss of control of what gets sent out in the returns has caused significant stress.
    • The assurance that the vast majority of returns and payments are correct and on time is a wonderful benefit.
    • Employee satisfaction has increased by having a large provider house W-2s online for ease in individual tax return preparation.
