This is probably one of ADP's greatest weaknesses. Their ability to interface with other systems is very frustrating. The connections often break or have issues and it takes forever to get any movement on the issue. Setting up a new connection is extremely frustrating. It is as if the developer or person on the other end of the email only reads one issue out of a list of 20. This causes lost work time and lots of frustration for their client and that clients other vendor having to repeatedly test and then go back and say you only fixed one of the 20 issues. I know that this is an area that all payroll vendors struggle with, but I have found that ADP is more frustrating than others in this area.
ADP beats SAP for ease of use without a question. When it comes to Ultimate I prefer their ability to actually look at an employee's check and make corrections to ADP's batch setup, but ADP's reports are easier to utilize than Ultimate's. PeopleSoft is on a whole other playing field from ADP. PeopleSoft gives you much more control of everything from earnings codes and deductions to what is happening on the employee's paycheck. I would work on PeopleSoft in a heartbeat, however, the cost and upkeep are financially not possible for most companies. ADP makes a good alternative.
