Overall Satisfaction with ADP Workforce Now

ADP is used across the whole organization as our primary tool for payroll, maintaining employee records, administering benefits, and performance management.
  • Custom reporting.
  • Managing employee records.
  • Compensation events (too rigid).
  • Performance management/dashboard (too rigid).
  • The performance dashboard is too prescriptive in its format and results in more admin work than intended for all users.
  • The compensation dashboard is too prescriptive in its format and requires us to rely on external Excel-managed solution for comp events.
  • Hirebridge ATS Connector
  • Domo
ADP's integration with our ATS, Hirebridge, has been phenomenal. We've automated a ton of our new hire onboarding process and we save approximately 30-60 minutes a week now!

Domo, our business intelligence platform, is a different story, unfortunately. We were about to connect to ADP's API, but ADP is not able to deliver all of the information we need to report on using this method. The "Workers" API doesn't provide any comp info, but most importantly, it doesn't report on any of our custom fields which are significant to our operations.
ADP can be a great benefits, payroll, and/or employee records system, particularly if you don't have many specific needs and are fine with limited customizability. However, if you have very specific ideas for how sections of the portal should operate - such as wanting a very limited, basic, and streamlined performance dashboard - ADP may fall short by assuming you want something more robust and failing to allow you to trim it down.
