### "Informational Review"

January 28, 2026

5.0

Great go to place for quick answers. I often use Run when I am not sure about an issue that comes up.

Pros

Customer support, employee management and general information. Great update. It is always a pleasure to hear about the upcoming laws and HR trends,

Cons

There is nothing I didn't like about the presentation. It was informative and brief and even though it offered information about other states, I would like to have presentations offered particularly to my state of California. I know it is informative to learn about other states, but we are a small non-profit which makes it more important to know about my state.

### "KLAS Inc payroll"

December 16, 2025

5.0

It is easy and overall good system for running payroll. Might need improvement in adding earnings and deductions to employee payroll.

Pros

It allows One click payroll running which is very good. You can preview the payroll and then submit for final submission after reviewing all deductions.

Cons

Adding earnings and deductions to payroll is difficult to figure out. Need to go settings and add it first to payroll system so it shows up for employee.

Overall RUN is easy to use and navigate. Our payrolls gets done on time each week with little to no hassles.

Pros

Easy to Navigate Customer Service Always Available The system notices when wages are lower or higher for employees which promotes double checking all reporting is correct for each week

Finding specific reports for accounting audits. Due to us having the lowest plan, we are not able to track down specific reports with ease resulting in audits taking longer than necessary

### "Excellent Service, Reliable Payroll"

April 3, 2026

5.0

Overall, my experience with ADP has been very positive. Their service is excellent, and they consistently go above and beyond to support our needs. Leaving our other payroll company was one of the best decision we made.

Pros

ADP has been incredibly supportive and proactive, consistently checking in to make sure everything runs smoothly. Their team is always quick to help with any questions, and they do an excellent job keeping us up to date and compliant with all state requirements.

Cons

The main drawback are too many unnecessary emails and solicitation calls. This can be overwhelming.

### "Terrible service….look out for the fancy sales team"

April 9, 2026

1.0

Terrible….lack of voice mail/email replies and you will be shuffled around after the sales person closes the deal. Support is only apology and no actions. Try other companies they all do the same and sure better service.

Pros

Nothing there are many other payroll services which can do the same and at the same price. They have a fancy sales team to reel you in but once closed you will not get an email reply for several days.

Cons

Zero customer service….they follow up and you tell them the issue and all they are trained to say is sorry you are having an issue. But nothing will be done. ADP is only for large business clients.

### "Reliable Payroll System for Small Business Teams"

March 16, 2026

5.0

Overall, RUN Powered by ADP has been a solid payroll solution for our team. It helps automate payroll, handle tax filings, and keep employee records organized, which reduces a lot of administrative work. While there are a few areas where the interface could be smoother, the reliability and support make it a dependable platform for managing payroll.

Pros

RUN Powered by ADP makes payroll and employee management straightforward. The system is reliable, and it is helpful having payroll processing, tax filings, and employee records all in one place. I also like that employees can easily access their pay stubs and tax forms online. For a growing business managing multiple team members, it keeps things organized and saves time.

Cons

Some parts of the interface could be more intuitive, especially when navigating reports or making adjustments. Occasionally it takes a few extra steps to find specific information. Pricing can also feel a little high for smaller businesses.

March 25, 2026

4.0

Pros

I like that everything is all in one place. I am able to see payroll charges as well as my retirement plan, business insurance and workers comp.

Cons

I do not like that you cannot adjust the meal periods to longer than 30 minutes. It is kind of annoying to have to excuse long lunches every day. The wait time on chat can be a little long but everyone has been helpful.

Pros

Loving the CareerPlug job ad/applicant management system. The platform is easy to use and creates a seamless onboarding process. Customer Service is always helpful and quick to respond.

Cons

ADP RUN cannot add deductions for a future effective date. This adds another manual process when a new hire enrolls in their benefits. I have to remember to add their deduction on the week that it takes effect. The system also doesn't show any change history with things like deductions and pay.

February 19, 2026

5.0

Highly recommend for any small business looking for a streamlined payroll solution! Overall, ADP RUN provides the perfect balance of functionality and simplicity for small businesses that don’t need overly complicated systems.

Pros

The platform is intuitive and user-friendly, making payroll processing quick and stress-free. Customer support has also been responsive and helpful whenever we’ve had questions. It’s dependable, efficient, and makes payroll one less thing to worry about.

Cons

Customer support is helpful, but during busy tax seasons, response times can occasionally be longer than expected. Although generally user-friendly, first-time payroll users may still need some time to understand all the settings and options.
