WHAT OTHERS SAY
We switched from PayCom because our company needed a more robust solution. We are grateful for ADP - it has wonderful features like payroll tracking, clocking in, and more.

WHAT OTHERS SAY
ADP Workforce Now is far better than its competitors. It has greater functionality, stronger integration capabilities and is priced lower than the competition. We have used Ceridian, UltiPro and Paycom in the past and have found that ADP Workforce Now is easier for our team to use and it has more to offer than the other three.

WHAT OTHERS SAY
Overall, the ADP solution has all the parts our business needs, from timecards to scheduling and DSP support. Recent ADP technology upgrades are big for us. With ADP, it’s just really simple.

WHAT OTHERS SAY
I would be really stressed out right now if Paycom was my only solution to handle my workforce. ADP does an outstanding job. Compared to Paycom, ADP is a dream.
Tina Porter Operations Fleet Manager, Venus Logistics
WHAT OTHERS SAY
With Paycom, they were not very helpful and we always felt like we were given the run around. We were always transferred in a circle to try and get someone to help or answer our questions. The ADP reps have always been able to assist us and walk us through any issue we may have.
Deborah Martinez Accountant II, First Community Bank
WHAT OTHERS SAY
It's a fairly night and day change — we mainly moved for reporting, compliance, and overall usability and efficiency reasons, but many more have cropped up since. ... I've found [ADP] to be a product that can pretty much fit whatever need you have and go extremely deep while still being incredibly accessible for line managers and self-service users.
Dave Mazzarelli Human Resources Director, Flour Bakery
