Considered Both Products

Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
They both have their advantages and disadvantages. PayCore is a better application to track the PTO time of employees however ADP is a better application to track paystubs and is a better application to use as a general employee hub. Overall, both applications have their …
Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
While I was not responsible for the platform selection, ADP has a much better interface. The tools available help in accessing payroll data for several pay periods easily. The data is easy to interpret and consume without the need to open every pay slip. Also the data is …
Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
We use ADP Mobile Solutions in conjunction with ADP Workforce Now. The mobile convenience for timekeeping is the primary reason we went with ADP Mobile Solutions instead of other products.
Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
We were having a lot of issues with paycor reps editing things without our permission messing up the payroll for the bookkeepers.
Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
Our company was acquired and we went with the parent company's vendor. I am glad we did because I honestly stopped going in the Insperity app. I would wake up and see that I was paid in an email but when I tried to log in to the app it was just too annoying. Once I was in I had …
Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
ADP definitely stacks up to all its other products. It looks 10x fresher than the ADP Vantage (Classic) platform. I wish Vantage could have a better UI like the ADP Mobile Solutions.
Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
I evaluated several other payroll services for small business, like Paychex and QuickBooks. I found that ADP provides so much value in the accuracy, ease of use and support provided, that any small monetary savings a cheaper services provides is outweighed by the savings in …
Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
ADP mobile is an extremely straightforward application in my opinion. Other apps are very similar though, offering an array of the same options. I wouldn't say the mobile application was the primary reason why we choose one service over another, but it is absolutely a …

The ADP Enterprise eTIME customer service team is excellent. I hope that ADP gears up their support for the ADP Mobile Solutions app and models it after ADP Enterprise eTIME. They are very professional and knowledgeable whenever my payroll needs to call them for a solution. …
Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
Both software do the same types of things. I think either is a good choice, I would just recommend you consolidate all your processes onto one software. Having multiple software can be tedious and confusing for employees.
Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
I have not used another mobile solution...But I am impressed with this one. At age 52 if I find it easy to use then it must be very intuitive.
Chose ADP Mobile Solutions
Have you used no other - normally there is a payroll/benefits department.

I currently use Paycor. It is a good platform for the organization. Sage HRMS was good software, but didn't support some of the more quirkier states like PA and IN for payroll. Paycor had similar constraints. Neither is a great fit if you are doing business across multiple …
Chose Sage HRMS
Sage HRMS is pretty good, but ICIMS was more of a complete and concrete ATS package. Sage HRMS's customer service was excellent, but ICIMS was robust and user-friendly. I would rate them both close, but ICIMS would be a better applicant tracking system from an HR standpoint.
Chose Sage HRMS
Sage HRMS is popular and it's used in most organizations due to the reputation of Sage in coming up with popular and reliable business softwares. The software is not that expensive and after learning how to use it, everything becomes smooth and perfect. It's ultimate strength …
Chose Sage HRMS
Sage HRMS was very cost effective for a non-profit. It does all that we needed as a company and more. It also allows us to handle payroll ourselves instead of outsourcing [it].
Chose Sage HRMS
I would say that Sage is ranked #3.
Chose Sage HRMS
Our version of Sage does not stand up to the competition, however, the cost is also much lower as well.
Chose Sage HRMS
Prior to implementing Sage HRMS, our organization was much smaller and split into two separate companies. The smaller of the companies used a similar product called "FileBound" that served at the business' human resource management software. It was much like Sage HRMS, but …

Likelihood to Recommend
[ADP Mobile Solutions is] appropriate for when your at home and you need to request time off. It's also nice to see your benefits that you elected and be able to do open enrollment for benefits via the app. They can see their paystubs and their W2's and your able to print or email those documents to yourself.

Sage HRMS might be great for a smaller company under 1,000 employees. I would not recommend it for larger companies. It becomes too burdensome because many processes still have to be manual and reports take forever to process if you have too many records in your system

Pros
  • ADP does a great job of handling all tax filings, which removes a lot of complexity and headache for the business owner.
  • ADP has great reporting functions to facilitate analysis around labor costs.
  • The "employee access" function allows employees to directly view their pay stubs, or tax statements, update changes in personal information like address or direct deposit info, which cuts down on admin work for business owner and improves accuracy of employee records.

  • Reporting - there are three levels of reporting - 1. Standard Reports 2. Query Tool - users can create very simple list with some filtering functionality 3. Crystal Reports - user can create very simple to complex report pulling data from multiple table, calculated fields, etc.
  • Benefit Tracking - benefit plans are setup utilizing rate tables therefore rate changes are updated globally
  • Payroll - everyday payroll processing and tax filing that is very user friendly

Cons
  • The password requirements are onerous.
  • It takes awhile for the UI to load.
  • I'd like to see favorites added to the selection bar. There are normally only one or two items I need to find quickly but there are several click-throughs.

  • It is sometimes hard to identify parts of competency/compensation history. We built tables to store this data but it is not laid out well on the screen.
  • Sometimes, even when you tell the system to "Add to History" it doesn't update so there is history missing. This impacts someone that relies on history for troubleshooting and reports.

I do not work with this software anymore, and I am not involved with the renewal of it. However, if I were, I would still suggest using it unless something better was introduced

Usability
The usability seems very intuitive, as we turn more features on we are continually impressed. As we roll out features to our employees, it is very user-friendly, and most users have little to complain about. I would recommend a training module when someone first downloads the app, to have a few training screens before logging in to help those less familiar with application technology. Other than that recommendation, the app has been great.

Support Rating
I've never really had to use the support for ADP mobile, so I would say that it is a great reason to give a good score. I believe the support that is put into keeping the application up to date and keeping the functionality of the application must be a focus of ADP, which is nice to see.

ADP mobile is an extremely straightforward application in my opinion. Other apps are very similar though, offering an array of the same options. I wouldn't say the mobile application was the primary reason why we choose one service over another, but it is absolutely a must-have for choosing a system in general. I would say most applications we reviewed, specifically the Ceridian app, were very similar

Return on Investment
  • Well it's only for my pay but I will admit I check my pay a lot more often and check more data than I have before. I was able to catch a mistake early on and get it fixed. I might not have done so as early with my previous app.

  • Sage HRMS allowed us to manage payroll in house.
  • It was disappointing that we had to use an outside vendor to file and pay our withholding tax.
  • Ultimately, the decision was made to outsource payroll after using HRMS for 3 years.
