### "Intuitive for users of all types"

December 4, 2018

5.0

As a leader of a team, I am responsible for approving time cards, PTO requests, time adjustments, etc. and have found that ADP WorkforceNow is an intuitive software that anyone can learn very quickly. The menu is thorough but simple, and functions are placed in a logical workflow. I would highly recommend ADP WorkforceNow as a timekeeping/payroll software due to the easy-to-use software.

Pros

Intuitive web-based software that I have found easy to use across users of all types. As a manager that approves time cards on a regular basis, I found that it's easy to find what you're looking for. For example, if you want to adjust a time card, simply click on the employee's time card, and go to the appropriate day that you want to adjust the time, and click "add row," "delete row,", etc. OR simply adjust the time as needed in each box - it's as simple as that. I also liked the calendar-based PTO request form - simply click on the date(s) that you want to schedule for PTO, Jury Duty, etc. and it will mostly populate the request form with the date(s) you selected. There's also a variety of reports you can run in which you can select your criteria so provide the right report you need.

Cons

One con is when you are "acting on behalf" of someone else, the menu looks a little different than your normal dashboard screen, but it's nothing major and you quickly get used to the functions. Also, it can be a little tricky to find out each team members time off scheduled as you have to dig into the menu a little deeper. But as you use the software more, you quickly become accustomed to where to go.

### "ADP Workforce now: An honest review"

August 16, 2024

4.0

Overall I would say it works well once the integration was completed.

Pros

Ease of downloading statements for employees.

Cons

Clock functions are sometimes not available on the website and seem to change location frequently. Navigation isn't entirely intuitive. There are many functions which don't apply which would be nice to have disappear from the homescreen.

### "Easy to use on the GO!"

August 27, 2024

4.0

Overall, it works well for clocking in and out as well as viewing your paystub.

Pros

ADP workforce is easily accessible by phone and makes it easy to clock in and out when needed on the go.

Cons

In order to make time changes, a list must be submitted to a manager and then approved which can take a while if someone forgets to clock in.

### "Human Resources"

September 23, 2021

2.0

ADP has gotten away from payroll. I have been using ADP for over a year and have found system errors overpayment / underpayment on every single payroll. My service rep never has a real answer for why these errors happen.

Pros

The system has a good onboarding and phone app system for new hires

Cons

Horrible customer service. On hold or waiting for a call back for no less than 30 minutes to 2 hours every time. My number one responsibility is paying my employees correctly. Always an excuse or bad update on why my employees did not get paid correctly. For the last 3 months on 2020 payroll would lock up every time I reviewed it. I had to make at least 4 calls to unlock my payroll every single payroll. ADP said they had an update planned for the error.

### "ADP for time tracking"

October 7, 2022

4.0

ADP is a great choice for any company to easily keep track of employee times worked, once setup it's east to use and flexible to modify and tune it for each individual employees. It has many options to chose from and automates many of the functions for HR work.

Pros

It is one of the best apps out there with flexible options to track employee work times, benefits, holiday hours, payroll information, even setting up tax information

Cons

A bit time consuming to learn how to set all functions in it and also time consuming setting it up for each employees

August 19, 2024

5.0

It has been a good experience. It walked me through the entire process.

Pros

It has the different things that are needing to be done right on the main site for onboarding. It was very helpful.

Cons

That it wouldn't allow a place to be able to change the frequency of pay if it was incorrect.

### "Workforce Now -Better but still needs improvement"

February 10, 2017

4.0

I have been an ADP Practitioner since August 2012. Within each upgrade our processes seem to improve on efficiency and accuracy thanks to the updates made. We have however had some issues in terms of "user-friendly" that while are small in nature, they do create inconvenience for our associates. 1. Message Center - I believe it was V10 I really enjoyed our Message Center - having the action arrows available was quick and easy. In the next upgrade it changed to a check, an X and three little dots. While this is convenient, not everyone can see these options on their screen unless a)they zoom in, or b) they scroll down - scroll right - scroll back up. It's just a headache. 2. Time off - this is helpful but still having some issues. We round to the nearest quarter and at this time it is rounded to the nearest minute. Also within time off request, anytime the policy or reason code is changed the hours zero out. We used to be able to submit a week for vacation on one line, it would appear a 5 days x 8 hours and submit. If we wanted to each day individually we had that option as well. Now it's all individually so each line must be manually updated. Very inconvenient. 3. Reporting - The ease of reporting has improved so much I would just assign 5 stars for that! Sadly I have been calling and attempting to build a report that retains an associates work history and still to no avail. 4. Client Service - For the most part the reps I have spoken to have always been very polite. As far as knowledge of a particular module it can vary from person to person so some frustration can occur when seeking an answer for an issue. Also turnaround time on open cases can be way longer than expected, while some never even respond. All around I truly love this product. In terms of what we need I do like Workforce Now very much. We look forward to all upgrades and improvements that they bring.

Pros

As a practitioner the options within the modules has been fairly easy to setup. It has the capacity to do so much more than we are doing in our department currently, and the introduction of ADP Mobile has elevated the service to our associates.

Cons

Ease and functionality could be improved. Again minor things but do contribute to the overall experience.

### "ADP Workforce Now Pros and Cons"

October 23, 2020

4.0

ADP Workforce Now has been a great learning experience. I love how easy it is to reset users log in information from the administration side and how ADP recognizes users based off personal information. This comes in handy when needing to pull historical payroll data.

Pros

ADP is very easy to use and I love how they have a built in training platform that can train you as you use the system. There are little information bubbles that you can hover over that will give you insights to the features and updates as they are release. ADP is expanding who they will integrate with which is wonderful because you can have several other systems integrated to the payroll system which makes for seamless processes. I really enjoy using ADP Workforce Now, it's very easy to use, pull reports, and run payroll. The system is very intelligent and won't allow you to hire individuals with the same personal information, which is very important for auditing purposes. Overall, great system to use.

Cons

The three cons I have about ADP Workforce Now is the reporting is difficult to use if you don't know what exactly you need when pulling data. The support team is very slow and sometimes too busy to prioritize your issues if you're a smaller organization vs. a larger organization. The last con is that the system is not customizable, so if you need a form or process customized to fit your company's needs, I would suggest a different system that is more customizable.

### "ADP has been the best aspect of my job at times and the most frustrating at other times."

December 5, 2017

4.0

It does a great job of staying current with all the compliances changes to payroll and HR. I rely on them to get the payroll reporting correct.

Pros

The webinars and continuous learning opportunities for the user are great. Laws and compliances are changing so quickly that it is hard for someone in the trenches to keep up. They make staying current easy with their Eye on Washington and special webcasts. I like the look and ease of the program. It is easy to navigate and find what you're looking for. The new Pay Cycle is great, but it would be nice to enjoy it a while before they "upgrade" it again. I need time to learn and discover all the ways it can assist me. Customer support has been one area of frustration, but help with the ACA and Time and Attendance has been stellar.

Cons

Getting answers quickly has been a huge frustration, and not just with customer service although that has been an issue with payroll. It seems to take an unnecessary amount of time to get something new implemented. We took steps to add an HR component for tracking professional development hours for our teachers. Once we signed up, we waited weeks to hear back about implementation. Finally after emailing our rep, I was contacted about training for the addition and found out it was not what we wanted. What we wanted was free and available with the push of a button. ADP has great resources for self-learning and I take advantage of them frequently. But sometimes I have an issue with payroll and need an answer quickly. Now with the designated rep, that doesn't happen. She is rarely available, which I understand, she has many clients and speaking with someone else is perfectly acceptable, but usually I end up having to leave a message. I find myself not wanting to call and having issues unresolved. Sometimes she is not able to resolve the issue completely because it involves a different department.

May 27, 2022

5.0

It has been great, the implementation team and standard support are always very quick to resolve issues.

Pros

Payroll was quite the process before having an all in one system for time and attendance and payroll processing. Now it is very smooth and having all of our employee data in one place is great!!

Cons

It is a more expensive option but the expandability for future growth and top rate security offset this in my opinion.

Overall, I have loved that Logos Christian Academy has started to using ADP workforce.

### "ADP Workforce Now - not just for payroll anymore"

December 9, 2021

5.0

The need for staff to go to their supervisor to get their PTO balance has been eliminated with the use of the self service portal. the staff feels more empowered to take control of their profiles with any updates they need to make.

Pros

We have changed finance managers 4 times in the last 5 years. For the periods of time that we had no finance manager, I was the person tasked with all things HR and payroll related. Let me tell you, this is outside of my normal workflow but I had to get my people paid. The software is straight forward, click and go, easy to use. Even for those of us that are not payroll or HR professionals. With the COVID hit, there was an added layer of complexity to entering payroll for those out sick. The ADP team did a wonderful job on providing resources and updating those resources often. there is online learning, on demand learning and always a friendly calm voice on the other end of the phone when a would frantically call for help. It's not just the software, it's the people behind it that make it all work smoothly. Tracking PTO is also a HUGE benefit to our employees. the days of " how much time off do I have ? " are long gone. We have encouraged all of our employees to use the self service portal for any changes to their profile thus cutting down on internal paperwork and the need for data entry. It's been a game changer for us.

Cons

I honestly can't think of anything that I would change about it. The communication via email is amazing and I always know what is going on with my processes.

### "Custom solution to fit any business size/type."

December 2, 2021

4.0

We switched from Paychex to ADP as we outgrew the Paychex platform. Happy with the switch, despite the occasional headache.

Pros

I like that ADP gives you complete control over all aspects of HR & Payroll within workforce now.

Cons

Because it is so customizeable, there can be issues getting feaetures working or fixed. Also, the sales and implementation team are hard to get ahold of once paperwork is finalized. They seem to disappear and work on their own schedule without feedback, regular updates on progress, etc.

### "Decent for Payroll. That's my one good thing to say. "

June 7, 2021

1.0

One more positive, is they let us out of our contract earlier than we were signed up for. Nothing like being locked into a contract you don't want to be in. When ADP saw how many problems we were having, they honored our request to part ways and find another solution. That's a positive service recovery approach.

Pros

ADP is built for payroll and even time keeping. Its a still got an old feeling format, but it does what it was made to do.

Cons

If you are looking for an all-in-one HR solution, ADP is not for you. I think all aspects outside of payroll and time keeping was acquired from somewhere else and bolted on. There are definitely better options out there for an all-in-one solution. The Customer service isn't great either.

Reason for choosing ADP Workforce Now

8/10 pretty cool but again like I said about sometimes needing HR to reset.

Pros

Easy to log in and access documents, also easy to get password resets

Cons

Some times you need your HR or company to reset a password, even for companies you no longer work for. I dont like that especially if a company is being petty.
