Overall Satisfaction with RUN Powered by ADP®

We are a relatively new client of RUN Powered by ADP® and have not utilized any of the above mentioned features yet
We use RUN Powered by ADP® as a payroll partner to manage payroll, taxes and compliance. We also use some people management functions like new hire paperwork. The RUN Powered by ADP® system software allow us to be more efficient time wise and not have to worry about making compliance deadlines or providing reports and payments.

Pros

  • onboarding new employees
  • system for reporting payroll
  • compliance

Cons

  • onboarding us as a client was not a smooth process
  • communication between departments could be better
  • little glitches in the system like not being able to use the same email for different accounts for the same person
  • We don't have to have a dedicated full-time payroll/HR person in staff
  • We don't have to worry about accuracy of our payroll and accuracy of reports
  • We don't have to worry about compliance deadlines to meet
I assume they like being able to access all of their information directly as I have not had many requests now for this information, and when I do I appreciate being able to refer them to their own portal.
Yes, obviously all of the above save us time.
All have been signed up for the app but I don't know how many use this as opposed to the desktop/laptop version. I think the younger employees use the app more.
RUN Powered by ADP® was just starting as a preferred vendor or our franchise system, and we are trying it out upon that recommendation. The system is much easier to use than the one provided by Vensure, takes less time, and on the whole, customer service is better.

Do you think RUN Powered by ADP® delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with RUN Powered by ADP®'s feature set?

Yes

Did RUN Powered by ADP® live up to sales and marketing promises?

No

Did implementation of RUN Powered by ADP® go as expected?

No

Would you buy RUN Powered by ADP® again?

Yes

I think I have already answered the pros -- on-boarding our new hires has been good once we learned the system, payroll reporting has been fast and easy. The cons are again, communication when multiple departments are involved, a few small glitches in the system (only on email per account, only one email notices can go to, etc.)

Using RUN Powered by ADP®

1 - I am the VP of our 8 person design/remodel company and I wear many hats, one of is payroll and another is HR.
2 - my admin is the support - general office work (she too wears many hats!)
  • payroll
  • compliance
  • onboarding new hires
  • we are relatively new users and are still learning all the features
We are still learning but it seems to fit our needs well

Evaluating RUN Powered by ADP® and Competitors

Yes - We used the Vensure system and it was clunky --designed for larger companies than ours and the support was not good.
  • Integration with Other Systems
  • Ease of Use
  • Other
Ease of use. I don't have a lot of time in my day as I wear many hats and RUN Powered by ADP® is intuitive and very easy to use and therefore efficient. I spend much less time on this part of my job than I previously did and I have more confidence that it is done right.
I don't think I would change it.
