“Their customer service was good when you could get them on the phone! Since most issues required fast resolution, it was often times irritating to have to wait for a call-back. And sometimes, the call-backs would tell you that You needed to be re-directed to a different area for resolution so that only increased frustration and delay.“

### "Simple but safety issue"

February 3, 2026

5.0

Amazing, clear, simple, daily use, neew an update on the safety and security. But nothing was flag other than that.

Pros

easy to use, friendly user, simple, everything is there. I love the feed, so my boss can post some information or learning process quickly.

Cons

The safety and security. It's been a couple time in a short time frame that all employee need to change their password because we hav an alert saying someone try to connect and it was spam to us.

### "Reliable but kind of clunky feeling"

March 13, 2026

4.0

Dependable platform for payroll and HR tasks. Once you learn where things are, it works pretty smoothly. It’s not the most modern interface, but it handles the important functions well.

Pros

Easy access to pay stubs and tax forms. Good reporting tools for HR and payroll. Helpful compliance features. Works well for managing benefits and employee records.

Cons

Interface is outdated. Some features take too many clicks to find. Reports can be confusing at first. Setup for new features isn’t always intuitive.

### "WFN Reviewer "

April 2, 2026

2.0

Not user friendly. Payroll processing is complex. Downloading reports is not intuitive. WFN should have different view settings.

Pros

System is very robust. It is functional for bigger companies. Not for companies that are a one man show.

Cons

Not user friendly. Not for small companies. It is very complex. It has its learning curve. However, once you pass the learning curve, it becomes easier.

### "Not difficult"

February 17, 2026

5.0

I used it for 3 years running payroll, timecards, etc. Our account manager was easy to get ahold of and walked me thru many things.

Pros

Great customer service, can easily contact account manager, onboarding was easy, PTO time was easy, payroll was easy.

Cons

Some of the reports I wanted to run gave me problems. I think that was the only difficulty I ran into.

### "ALL IN ONE HR"

March 14, 2026

5.0

It's a solid enterprise-grade solution that does what it promises, but it requires investment in training and patience with support. It's good once implemented.

Pros

ADP Workforce Now combines payroll, HR, benefits, time tracking, timesheets, reporting, and communication in one system. Good value but and support. Steep learning curve affects ease of use. Reliable for mid-to-large businesses.

Cons

Frequent updating, usability challenges. Best suited for organizations that can invest time in training and have dedicated HR staff to manage the system.

### "Good but clunky!"

March 2, 2026

5.0

I am pretty good with this, We also have to maintain a separate login to WORKDAY which is odd you would think it would be the same login/password.

Pros

Value for Money Customer Support Ease of Use Reporting Communication and end of year W2 makes it easier to get things organized at TAX time!

Cons

I really have to say ADP makes you setup a different profile every time you join a new company which is fine but the problem is it does not link other historical data from previous jobs that used ADP. So that makes it hard to keep track of login/passwords.

5.0

Pros

This software was easy to use. It was especially good when trying run a small retail business with only a few employees.

Cons

I wouldn’t really say I had any cons with his software. I wouldn’t use it for a large company. Its more for small businesses.

### "ADP - Payroll"

March 17, 2026

5.0

Mobile app works great as well as website. Customer support and FAQs are very helpful. Communication is great. Must used a modern software like ADP. One stop for all you pay issues.

Pros

Easy quick and convenient. Time tracking and approving hours is easy. Reporting missing pay and setup is quick adding personal details.

Cons

Value for money we can say it is moderate, but with this amount the feature are fine. Otherwise nothing I dislike. It is a great app.

### "ADP is excellent!"

March 23, 2026

5.0

My overall experience has been great. I had a small problem with something and our HR manager helped me get it fixed easily!

Pros

I like ADP as an employee, it's an easy way to see my pay, manage time off, and manage benefits. Being new to any service like this, ADP was a good one to start with.

Cons

There is nothing I have found that I dislike about ADP. There are many features that I have used and they have all worked well.

### "Excellent ADP "

February 27, 2026

5.0

ADP allows users to obtain their data even when you are no longer with the company. My overall experience was great.

Pros

Ease of use. I was able to receive all my documents from the company I was previoulsy employed. Very user friendly!

Cons

I have not encountered any problems. ADP captures the need of each company employee and anxiety levels are low.

### "The trendsetters of work efficiency "

October 25, 2025

4.0

I have had a very good experience with ADP Workforce Now. I would say that they are the app that kicked off the trend of empowering the employee. From being able to clock right in and out from the comfort of your own mobile device, to accessing your own check stubs and being able to update important information for your company to keep them in the loop. This app is truly amazing!

Pros

Clock feature, very easy to use, you have the option to use your fingerprint or FaceID (depending on your phone type), request time off/edit your time clock, paperless check stubs, paperless tax statements, update personal information directly from the app for HR

Cons

I’ve had multiple employers through ADP and depending on how far back I was not able to access my older tax statements, customer service

### "Good system if you dont want customer service"

October 31, 2025

4.0

The HRIS system was good, the customer support was awful. If I worked for a large company I would recommend this otherwise I would not.

Pros

The reports, performance management module, payroll and HRIS database. Ease of use and employee friendly for them to use.

Cons

The customer service team of ADP and the limited support for smaller or mid-size businesses. When someone terminates, employee access to their previous file is limited.

### "ADP review"

November 25, 2025

5.0

Has been pretty seamless. Implementation was a bit of a struggle as their staff person I felt was not very knowledgeable.

Pros

Easy to use. Cuatomer service is very good. Calls are answered rapidly. The system is fairly user friendly.

Cons

Nothing comes to mind. I am pretty happy the toughest part was the implantation. On their end I felt like the staff person was not the best.

### "Too big to be Helpful"

March 12, 2025

3.0

It started out great but went downhill from there. The customer support was terrible and when they made mistakes it was horrendous trying to get them corrected. The one thing an employer cannot do is mess with people's paychecks.

Pros

Comprehensive payroll tools to help from on-boarding to payroll to reviews and termination.

Cons

Cost went up and every little thing became an add-on. Getting customer support was difficult. Paychecks were delayed or incorrect on several occasions and getting those fixed didn't seem like a priority.

June 11, 2025

4.0

Overall, I do like it versus other competitors in the price range. The user functionality and access to resources and benefits is easy.

Pros

What I enjoy most is the capability of tracking of paystubs and taxes along with being able to customize the information for employees on the home page. Anything they need to know is there and they do not have to go through a whole process looking for documents. Layout it clean and user friendly.

Cons

Requesting time off such as sick time and vacation time has been a challenge especially the sick time request functionality/

### "A great online system to manage HR responsibilities!"

November 30, 2025

5.0

Even though switching to ADP was different then the typical pen and paper system I was used to, I really am glad that we switched. I think it has been a very beneficial move for our company and as an employee user I love all of the online features that I have when using this system.

Pros

My place of employment has recently switched to using ADP and it has been very easy to use and transition to. I use ADP daily to track my time at work and submit for payroll. ADP has a lot of features to improve communication throughout the office; however my place of work does not use all of the site abilities to report time off requests or other forms and reports. I have not had the need to use the customer support line as my HR director has been able to answer all my questions and concerns. I also do not pay for the ADP application as an employee so I am unsure what the cost of this program is.

Cons

I have not had any issues with ADP workforce. There was initially a slight learning curve when switching from a paper system to a ADP for our time documentation.

### "Honest Opinion on ADP WFN"

November 3, 2025

4.0

I worked with WFN for almost ten years. It is a great product for the right organization. ADP is a leader in the space for a reason, but its very easy to get lost in the mechanics of it all.

Pros

ADP Workforce Now is a great product for the right organization. The technology is consistently being expanded, they have a highly knowledgeable team and can be very easy to use. Payroll overall is very easy, time tracking typically can be setup efficient. I find ADP employees as a whole to be caring and well educated in their field.

Cons

What I liked least is that the technology can be overwhelming and if you are not a tech minded person it can be very clunky at points. Reporting used to be an absolute bear and while efforts were commendable it could take forever to get what you need setup custom. It can be very expensive and communication could be slow.

### "ADP is the way to go!"

August 5, 2025

5.0

Overall, I would recommend using ADP for your company payroll. The benefits outweigh the mobile app 100%

Pros

What I like most is the ease of checking in and out as well as the customer support received when there are issues.

Cons

What I find to be challenging is using the mobile app. It isn't the easiest to log into and often times will not record the check in and out correctly.

My overall experience with ADP Workforce has been extremely positive so far. Aside from the limitations through the website on my desktop, there's really nothing negative I can say, only positive. I find ADP Workforce to be superior to other work force apps and websites.

Pros

ADP Workforce is a fantastic product all around. Very user friendly and easy to navigate. The features and support offered are superb and second to none in the industry.

Cons

For some reason I cannot access the same features through the website on my desktop computer. I need to use the ADP Workforce app to fully access everything.

August 12, 2025

5.0

I've used ADP at a few different jobs now, and each of them has had it's own way of using ADP. I love how it centralizes everything "HR" related in one place.

Pros

I like how it gives each user visibility on their pay details, vacation balances, for themselves and their team. It is easy to use from a computer or your phone application.

Cons

I wish there was a way to see the dollar value of the time off balances, rather than just the hours.

Overall, I am satisfied with ADP Workforce Now as a platform for managing pay, tracking time, sorting and storing employee information as well as having a responsive support team.

Pros

ADP Workforce Now has been a fantastic platform to work with since I began my current employment. The system is very user-friendly and easy to understand and makes managing my time and pay extremely efficient.

Cons

Overall, my experience with ADP Workforce Now has been positive. It’s a powerful tool for managing a range of HR functions, and once you’re familiar with the system, it becomes a reliable part of day-to-day operations.

Pros

What I like most about ADP Workforce is how comprehensive and centralized it is. From payroll to benefits and time tracking, everything is in one place, which makes managing HR tasks much more efficient.

Cons

What I liked least is that some areas of the platform can feel a bit clunky or overwhelming, especially for first-time users. Certain customizations also require more support from ADP than expected.
