What is ADP GlobalView Payroll?

GlobalView Payroll is an infrastructure of experts, technology, insight, and innovation, designed to help users understand what motivates and drives employees. It draws on the vendor ADP's 65 years of experience solving for the complexities and intricacies of payroll on a global scale. When fully leveraged, the vendor says ADP GlobalView HCM can be used to create a new strategic approach to building a sustainable and engaged global workforce with the goal of driving modern business needs.

In addition to the HR technology and and strong support and advisory services, the vendor says one of their differentiators is the single ADP user experience, so that users don't have to manage multiple vendor contacts or interfaces.
