Overall Satisfaction with ADP Vantage HCM
We currently have 31 different pay groups that we process payroll for. We just implemented the recruiting module a few months ago that feeds into VantageHCM for all new hires. We're still trying to reduce the amount of paper that is processed between the business units, HR, and payroll. Everything is working as we expect it to.
- The dedicated service team allows for faster response to issues.
- It provides easy navigation for all employees, managers, and practitioners.
- Time cards, benefits, and payroll are all part of VantageHCM -- instead of three separate systems.
- It could provide a better reporting functionality for practitioners.
- I would like notifications from ADP when certain areas of the system are not working or are running slow.
- I would like more detailed instructions on how to do certain things, such as a new state tax setup.
- It's allowed us to rethink how we process payroll and our internal payroll deadlines.
- We use it to utilize all tools provided when processing payroll to ensure accuracy.
- There was not enough training during implementation -- we still have to create numerous SR's on a weekly basis.
Having timecards, benefits, and payroll all in one program is a big plus! The system we converted from was very archaic and we needed a system to be able to handle 30 payrolls with the possible of adding additional companies over the new few years. Also, to have a company that handles all of the tax filings since we are in numerous states.
ADP Vantage HCM Feature Ratings
Using ADP Vantage HCM
everyone has to enter timecards, view their pay stubs, view W2, enter address changes, enter direct deposit information, update tax information. Practitioners use system daily while employees may use system lots less. Managers need to use system for personal use as well as approving timecards and approving time off. Even our executives use HCM!
12 - All of the HR and payroll professionals that reside in our corporate office are the support people for ADP Vantage. We do have field practitioners who access the system on a daily basis for processing purposes for that actually look to our corporate employees for assistance. We like to have employees that have some HR or payroll experience as a requirement for the support staff.

Price and support system
get some business reference and call on these business references to ensure we were not being oversold on certain areas.
ADP Vantage HCM Implementation
Yes - I was told they did it in phases but I was not here during that time.
Change management was a major issue with the implementation - change is always hard for employees that have long tenure with a company.
- tax setup
ADP Vantage HCM Training
- Online training
if you have some payroll experience - not hard to learn system - but I would always recommend doing some of the on-line training to enhance your skills.
Configuring ADP Vantage HCM
have a timeline or a road map to sue for configuration and implementation
Yes - we have customized the interface extensively - with our external vendors - timekeeping to payroll, and GL interface

- Navigating between functions
- ease of logging in and using MY ADP with Vantage HCM
- when system goes down on payroll Monday
- lack of service team responding quickly when needed
Yes - very well - we use MY ADP which allows employees to log time, look at pay stubs, change direct deposit information and request time off. This is also used by managers to approve timecards and approve vacations time. Ability to let our employee be mobile and not hold up payroll processing each week.
