Overall, a vast improvement from what we had before. ADP often gets a bad rap, but I think they are making so great improvements. I am no longer at that company where I used ADP comprehensive services, but I was a key player in the implementation of it and was a super admin.
Pros
The variety of features. We went from a much less robust version of ADP (ResourceNow) to Comprehensive Services and have been surprised by how much we like it. It is definitely comprehensive, providing Payroll, Onboarding (we moved from fully manual to all electronic processes), benefits integration, performance management (again, we moved from manual process to electronic with workflows) and robust reporting capabilities. All of this was for just slightly more cost than what we had before with ResourceNow. The user interface is really good, and as an administrator, it was relatively intuitive to figure out.
Cons
There are some minor areas where I wish there was most custom-ability. I also wish it didn't limit our benefits feed option to only 3 carriers.
Response from ADP
Hi Shandus,

Have a great day!

Overall, our experience has been extremely positive. Our costs have decreased, employee satisfaction has increased and compliance with HR and Payroll regulations has greatly improved.
Pros
I love how my HR and Payroll services are integrated to make everything streamlined and simpler. This significantly decreases errors and helps employees and my HR team be more efficient.
Cons
Some reports could be named more clearly but there is nothing that I dislike!
Response from ADP

It's fine. All the compliance and required reporting for payroll is taken care of well and are a weight off my mind.
Pros
There are many things that ADP handles behind the scenes that are a relief not to have to think about, like payroll taxes and unemployment insurance reporting.
Cons
In many instances, I feel that the staff on my account are soldiers not partners. They do exactly what they are told to do (soliders). But I would prefer a partner - a person that thinks thoughtfully and critically about what you are asking them to do and then suggest a better approach or say, "hey, did you think of this?" or "did you know about this?"

ADP is the best!
Reviewed on 2023/12/14
Pros
Payroll & reports and analytics. It gives you a wide range of options.
Cons
In the new experience, when we have to preview payroll from the payroll register. You have to click to expand each column, so visually it's not convenient as it used to be with Classic. So personally I preferred how Classic view worked (more visual).

Overall, I am very grateful for having Comprehensive Services. I would not have been able to stay with the company I am currently at had they not made this switch.
Pros
We were with ADP Workforce Now in what they call Majors. This is the same technology platform but with significantly less support and modules than with Comprehensive Services. During our time with Majors, we went through several significant issues that required support and it was not a good user experience. By moving to Comprehensive Services, we gained access to modules that streamlined our processes, an HR Business [sensitive content hidden] who is your right-hand person and can support you strategically as well as advocate for you when issues arise, and gained access to a better service platform and team. The amount of stress that his been eliminated by moving to Comprehensive Services is significant.
Cons
I will say that I continue to be disappointed by Benefit Services and implementation. Implementation was a bit of a mess. It was clear there isn't a checklist to make sure clients are receiving access and education to everything included. We did not gain access to some modules until after I had inquired about what we were missing and pushed to gain access. Benefit services tends to be similar to implementation where it seems the teams don't know how to use the entire system. A lot of things are missed/dropped when working with them.
Reasons for Switching to ADP Comprehensive Services
We were already using ADP Workforce Now so being able to keep our same system thus lessening the learning curve was a bonus. Also, Paylocity and Rippling weren't able to meet our complex payroll needs. It didn't make sense to switch.Response from ADP
Hi Emily, we really appreciate the thorough and detailed review! The detailed feedback is so valuable as we continue to work towards improving the user experience where we can. We are so glad to hear that we've been able to meet your complex needs and that you're grateful for Comp Services. We're grateful for clients like you and look forward to a continued partnership.

I have worked with ADP Comprehensove Services at a couple of jobs, and I receive consistenly great service every time! No issue that I may have is too bigfor them to assist me with, or find a way to resolve.
Pros

Cons
Hasving to pay for custom reports sometimes, when an already-existing styandard report is available, and can be tweaked for no additional cost.

Reviewed on 2023/12/14
Pros
Amazing implementation team, all the support, their dedication, motivation to solve all our issues/challenges.
Overall: I like that i can always get a hold of customer service to help out one very topic.
Cons
Moving from implementation to being just a regular customer is very hard, felt like falling from the mountain top to the deep valley.
Scheduling module is not up to my expectations, does not have the functionalities we need
Overall: ADP has a lot of resources to help customer (Admin) to learn the system, but it is overwhelming, i keep getting several email a day, i cannot keep up. Our company does not have a dedicated HR person just for ADP tasks and instead of helping, it just makes me stressed that i have to take care of all the tasks that ADP assigns to me.

While the service addresses many essential HR needs, there are areas that need improvement. Overall I I am comfortable using the system.
Pros
What I liked most about ADP Comprehensive Services was its integration of various HR functions into one platform, which helps simplify tasks. Customer support is generally responsive.
Cons
What I liked least about ADP Comprehensive Services was the disruption caused during the implementation phase. While changes were made in the background, our team was not notified, leading to interruptions in our daily operations. When we inquired about these disruptions, there was a lack of accountability and communication.
Response from ADP

Overall, the system is user friendly. There are a lot of resources available when you need help. I continue to have a good experience with ADP and would recommend.
Pros
The ability to pick up the phone and get a human on the other end in seconds! When you need someone to pick up, they are always available immediately. Our payroll rep is top notch, always goes the extra mile for me.
Cons
If you are fortunate enough to get a seasoned Team, they are amazing. We were given a new employee for almost a year for payroll, and it was a disaster. We have been solid now with an amazing Team after the switch, which we had to initiate.

I understand that ADP has to protect the brand, but the hands off approach is very frustrating at times. If you are not well versed in payroll regulation you may be very frustrated. Your payroll person needs to be more than a button pusher.
Pros
ADP is a one stop shop with accurate calculation and reporting. I have been a payroll ADP user for 40+ years so have seen much growth and change.
Cons
Too much red tape sometimes to get things done. I really dislike customer service. We have had three new case managers in the last 6 months. I can barely understand the person I have now. Forces me to use the online portal for assistance instead of just calling and talking with someone.
Also disappointed they no longer provide APA recertification credits. ADP seems more focused on Human Management at this time.
