Overall Satisfaction with ADP Workforce Now

ADP Workforce Now was used at my previous company by HR and Accounting/Payroll for approximately 350 full-time employees and contractors. We were on version 2, which proved to be a challenge with multiple versions of software tied together. The HR (HRB) side did not always communicate with the payroll side, and it proved difficult in a time where technology rules the world of payroll. The user interface was archaic, as was the open enollment function we asked all employees to use. In a creative environment, ADP didn't have the customization or capabilities we needed.
  • Maintains employee history
  • Make the interface more user friendly.
  • Ensure clients software is updated periodically.
  • Stay ahead of trends - lots of cheaper, more user friendly payroll companies are entering the market.
  • ADP increased our cost year over year without upgrading our system or providing any payroll support. Terrible experience.
ADP is less user friendly and intuitive but was already in place when I started.
It may be more appropriate for manufacturing type jobs with low turnover and relatively straightforward payroll practices.
