    ADP
    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.

    Sequoia One is an excellent PEO. On that point alone, I would give them a 10+. Their app, Sequoia One, drags them down. company uses a PEO when it's more cost efficient to take advantage of Sequoia One's reach and purchasing power to provide benefits and payroll services.

    Pros
    ADP
    • 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.

    • Information is centrally located, albeit very hard to find at times
    • Better from a user perspective than administrator

    Cons
    ADP
    • 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.

    • Integration of Prism is going way too slowly.
    • Information is often too hard to find as an administrator. That shouldn't be

    Usability

    The report feature can be a little complicated. Other than that, I have found no issues at all with this system

    I have a 10 minute rule if Im looking for something; if I can't find it in 10 minutes I contact my customer service rep who finds what I'm looking for. Fortunately, they have great reps who can usually find what I'm looking for very quickly. To be clear, if I'm looking for, e.g., a benefits summary, it shouldn't take more than a minute to find it

    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.

    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.

    Return on Investment
    ADP
    • 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).

    • It has made employment of US-based employees very easy
    • Great customer service that reduces the number if cycles to handle basic tasks
    • The app is improving steadily. Just not fast enough.
