Overall Satisfaction with APS

APS was used in the Human Resources and Payroll departments of my company.
  • New hire implementation.
  • News distribution and postings.
  • Employee reporting.
  • Recording training, this is tedious as you have to put it in individually and cannot put in a class of 150 all at once.
  • Onboarding, there is no onboarding program in APS.
  • Initially I think a good ROI but we didn't have a way to do onboarding or certain employee retention programs like perfect attendance, etc.
They both have their good points and negative points, overall I think ADP is a better with recruitment platforms and onboarding. But APS had some good features as well.
I loved APS support before they were bought out by Kronos, after Kronos took over it was TERRIBLE!

Do you think APS Payroll delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with APS Payroll's feature set?

Yes

Did APS Payroll live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of APS Payroll go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy APS Payroll again?

Yes

APS is well suited for entering in new-hire information and creating reports with your employee information, such as birthdays/anniversaries, but difficult to do attendance tracking or perfect attendance programs. The worst thing I think would be training, entering in training classes was so tedious because each person has to be put in individually.
