Likelihood to Recommend I would not use this company for anything. [I believe my] employees [absolutely] hate the software and there are constantly glitches in the software which occur every payroll run, benefits enrollment, etc. [I have spent] large amounts of time on the phone with outsourced customer support[,] so think twice when comparing [the] cost to other providers. [I feel] you [will] need someone full time to deal with all of their issues. We are currently in the process of setting up another PEO company. The amount of money and time to implement ADP has been a huge loss.
Read full review SAP HR can be well suited for global companies with operations in multiple countries. The Payroll module needs to be limited to one instance per country, otherwise trying to maintain multiple countries on the same instance is too complicated. I would not recommend using SAP HR and Payroll for smaller companies because the total cost of ownership and the lack of flexibility will make it unfeasible. There are many cloud-based options now a days available that would fit better for this type of scenario.
Read full review Pros Payroll was easy to learn and use with time tracking in a short time frame Tracking team members request offs and approving them were very easy Customizing reports for specific periods of time. This made is very easy for end of year tracking for total hours worked and total dollars paid. Read full review It’s easy to use The layout is organized It is reliable Read full review Cons Customer service is horrible Follow up takes 7-10 days, and requires multiple inquiries from you, the client The promised "dedicated team" doesn't exist Onboarding is confusing to new hires Explanation of benefits to new hires is useless and must be done in office, thereby negating any value. They should not provide handling UI claims as as service. They have no ability to actually meet deadlines. Read full review The interface and graphic look and feel are not very modern. Provide more intuitive and easier screens and functionality - Too many scroll bars. Make messages back to users more descriptive. Read full review Support Rating ADP is a great HR solution for most organizations. It is truly all-in-one. I rated it a 7, because of the issues we experienced during implementation and the high cost of service when issues do arise.
Read full review Alternatives Considered At the moment, we have not investigated any of the products available in the drop-down list provided. However, we have evaluated some other (unavailable) products and have been intrigued by the potential decrease in fees along with the potential for a much more "rich" benefit plan. We can't speak to the level of customer service observed by current clients, only to apparent cost savings.

Read full review Return on Investment It has cost us more money from a financial aspect and then taken away my main/other job duties because I have to focus all of my time on ADP TotalSource and basically fixing errors that happen weekly/every time an employee is added or terminated (which is more than the normal company due to the nature of our business). Read full review SAP HR is suited for large companies with a sufficient budget. Small budgets will not be able to cover the expensive licensing, technical personnel and consultants required of an SAP installation. In regards to the total cost of ownership, my ROI experience has been that by replacing SAP HR modules with cloud solutions we have been able to reduce the cost up to 60% while modernizing our systems and improving the employee experience. I would encourage decision makers to look for cloud-based alternatives with a robust system integration, before believing that supporting every area of HR with a single SAP installation is a good long-term strategy. Having SAP HR as the core integrated to best-in-class cloud-based systems is a very valid and effective system strategy. Read full review ScreenShots
