I think ADP is one of the better ones. The reporting interface is super easy to use, and their direct deposit is the best among competitors.
The only problem is that when we were starting they were a bit chaotic, not communicating between each other. We had a different point of connection every week, and it was somewhat frustrating.
Easy to use, awesome customer support, great reports, and dependable service. I really like the web site as well.
But also I experienced financial hardship due to the pandemic. I was unable to afford ADP for the month of April.
Customer service is very helpful, reliable, and fast. There is a peace of mind, having a network of people that can help via a phone call or email.
I used to have a lot of frustration with the app and have not seen as many problems as in the past. Please continue making improvements to the app.
The customer service is outstanding. When I have questions, they are readily available to answer and help.
I kept getting charged for things after cancellation.
Ceridian has been a lifesaver in meeting our payroll needs. Their customer support is outstanding.
Currently, unfortunately, we have to keep track of everything on a spreadsheet which can cause some room for error or questionable practices.
Overall it is a very good product and allows us to process payroll smoothly. The customer service team are friendly, picks up your call quickly and are super helpful at answering your questions.
Once I am used to the interface of the program and you changed it after a number of years is annoying.
Ceridian representatives are knowledgeable and happy to help. I've appreciated their webinars on various topics.
Needed to work around only one type of sick time drawing from the accumulator, can't print out employee's transactions for the year without going into every pay period separately.
The software can be learned quickly. The software's ease of use coupled with the robust customer support will make for a successful outcome.
Anytime I have a problem I just call in and its direct to a live agent.
Ashli: Hi, I'm Ashli, I'm the Owner and Operator of a parking lot sweeping company, and I give RUN Powered by ADP a five out of five. When we purchased our company in August, we were back in the stone age and using paper timecards. So we had to use a lot of research into different companies that would offer the features that our employees and ourselves were wanting. We looked at Square, we looked at QuickBooks and ADP, and ultimately landed on ADP. We chose ADP for the ability to be able to travel and do time cards, for us to be able to use direct deposit, and the simplicity. When we were looking at going with ADP, we had an awesome experience with different individuals who were helping us figure out what needed to be set up, where it needed to be set up, and ultimately they fit us into the right program for our business, being a small business, and for our budget. For anybody who's looking for a company who can provide direct deposit, who can provide simplicity, RUN is definitely the program to go with. I would definitely say reach out, talk to somebody. They were friendly and knowledgeable and helped us out a ton, especially as brand new business owners.
Samantha F.: Hello. My name is Sam. I'm the Director of Finance within the aviation industry. I rate Powerpay five of five. For more reviews like this click, the link below. We use Ceridian Powerpay to manage many day-to-day business activities, such as time off requests. We use it to get much HR support. We use it for everyday payroll processing and to remit all of our payroll taxes. The thing I love most about Powerpay is that I can have a customer service representative within couple seconds on the phone. There's no waiting. It's just, if you have a question, you dial in a number and like I said, within a couple of seconds, you're able to speak to a real person, in real time, who can help you solve all of your payroll issues. They can log right into your payroll account and show you right on your screen what you've done wrong, or what you need to do in order to solve the problem that you have. The thing I like least about Powerpay is within a new app that they just launched called Powerpay People. It allows you to manage the time off requests for employees. It has a clock-in/ clock-out functionality and other great, potentially great, solutions for small businesses like mine. The thing I like least about it, sorry, is that it's expensive. I think it's very unaffordable for small businesses and it doesn't always work super great when you go to use the payroll processing function. For example, if an employee submits an eight hour time off request using their vacation time, but say they worked through their lunch the day before, so they were hoping to only use seven hours of vacation, it actually doesn't allow the payroll administrator, such as myself, to go back and edit their time off requests, to be only for seven hours instead of eight, which is slightly problematic. However, I have spoken with the tech team and they've said that they're actually in development of making this a little bit more user-friendly, which would be awesome. So I look forward to seeing what they come up with and I also hope that in the future, they can lower the startup fees associated with the time, the clock-in/clock-out functionality. Right now, I think it's a thousand dollars. But anyways, hopefully it gets used more and they're able to lower those fees for small businesses.
