    RUN Powered by ADP®Paylocity
    Considered Both Products
    ADP
    Chose RUN Powered by ADP®
    We switched from RUN Powered by ADP® to Paylocity as we think it is more feature rich with document management, automatic onboarding with a work flow that we design and meets our needs and automatic I-9 reporting.

    Chose RUN Powered by ADP®
    I selected RUN Powered by ADP® because not only were the employees very straightforward and informative when I was inquiring about their service but the price was reasonable as well. I felt that Paylocity was being a little sneaky when it came to how billing would be handled. I …

    Chose RUN Powered by ADP®
    The cost was about the same but ADP had a much better HR function and online background checks and ZipRecruiter. We also like the ability to easily add the ADP 401k product although we have not done so yet. As an accountant, I appreciate the "GL Company View" report that has …

    Chose RUN Powered by ADP®
    I did not select ADP, it was the system in place when I started. We are moving away from ADP as it is not robust enough for our needs.

    Chose RUN Powered by ADP®
    I selected RUN Powered by ADP after a detailed demonstration from one of the executives in the franchise team. It seemed to do what I needed it to do and I was not happy with the payroll providers at other companies I had worked for before. So I went with ADP right from the …

    Paylocity
    Chose Paylocity
    ADP was not user-friendly at all. It was quite confusing just to process payroll, much less reports. We had an HR clerk steal over $50k by adding direct deposits to her payroll, and ADP never alerted anyone. When called about this, they claimed it is not their responsibility.

    Chose Paylocity
    Out of all the other HRIS systems I have used, I spend way less time doing my job with Paylocity. Paycom has so many pages to weed through to do anything or find information, Paychex Flex was underwhelming at best, and ADP Workforce Now had too many segmented features that it …

    Chose Paylocity
    ADP had limited tools and couldn't manage a single payroll run with multiple pay periods. Paylocity solved that issue and eliminated our need for a 3rd party recognition platform

    Chose Paylocity
    ADP did not allow for a streamlined process like I wanted. It was much more user friendly for payroll processing though and there were less errors.
