Overall Satisfaction with RUN Powered by ADP

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I have a very small business. Since I do all the bookkeeping on top of my medical consulting, I outsource our payroll to ADP. They are very prompt and trustworthy. I have never had them make a mistake with withholding. RUN Payroll is very easy to use with a great online interface. All the reports for taxes, etc. are available in the online site. I like being able to download and store a PDF instead of having piles of paper the way I did with traditional payroll prior to this. My accountant is also very pleased with the RUN/ADP service, and doesn't have any trouble getting the necessary information from the reports to file our taxes. Highly recommend.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Easy to use website. Don't have to phone in the payroll!
All necessary reports available in PDF format to download.
You can see what the total cost of the payroll will be (including withholding) before you approve it.
Very helpful phone support.

Cons

I don't have any suggestions for improvement.

Return on Investment

I don't have any actual data on how our business is impacted by RUN Payroll. All I know is that I don't trust myself to get all the withholding correct if I tried to process the payroll myself, which would probably result in some costly fines from the government.

Other Software Used

QuickBooks Premier

Likelihood to Recommend

I have a small business (5 employees or less) with all salaried employees and think that RUN payroll is ideal for our needs. I would imagine that if our employees were hourly, it would be even more necessary due to increased complexity of the payroll. I am the only person in the business who uses it, so I can't give feedback on how it would work for a larger business. There is accountant access available, which is very helpful for getting our taxes done.
