Overall Satisfaction with ADP Workforce Now

Onset uses ADP across the entire organization. We are able to track engineering project hours, time off and absenteeism. We just purchased a timeclock which will allow for more efficient accounting of time worked.
We also use the performance reviews which suit our needs quite well.
  • Great payroll support
  • Easier reporting
  • Recruiting process
  • Complicated benefits programs set up
  • The ease of doing payroll frees up the person doing it.
  • Managers can use an online tool for performance reviews rather than paper.
The scalability works for our needs
  • 401K
  • Life insurance tables
We use ADP's 401K service which has been great. We partner with Morgan Stanley who has been fantastic. The 401K service with ADP is great - our rep is on top of everything and helpful. The compliance needs are easily met with the product.

We also use the benefits enrollment and just added the life insurance tables. We needed some help setting it up and some fine tuning but once it was set up it is a great self service option for employees
We had originally used Paychex. It was a long time ago and I don't recall much. The one thing that I liked much better about Paychex was that we had a single rep for Payroll that we could always reach out to, if needed.
ADP is a great option for payroll, time and attendance and performance. Performance, benefits and recruiting are a bit confusing to set up for the average user. That said, once it is set up it works well - with the exception of the recruiting module. I do not like the feature that requires a job posting being required to match our job descriptions. Also, it would be nice if employees can see their job descriptions.

I am recommending a joint partnership with SHRM - to incorporate their 360 review process into ADP. It is a great tool.
