Challenges

  • Using QuickBooks to run payroll was only a partial solution which required a lot of time for manual entry

How ADP helped

  • RUN Powered by ADP allows payroll to be completed in minutes. And HR411® and Pay-by-Pay® Premium Payment Program help maintain compliance and avoid surprises.

 

Switching to ADP from QuickBooks took my business to the next level

With ADP, I still do payroll myself, but it only takes me about 10 minutes. I use ADP Time & Attendance, so at the end of the week, I just review everyone’s hours in RUN Powered by ADP and I’m done. Switching to ADP from QuickBooks took my business to the next level, because it freed me up to be better at the things I do — like management and sales.

ADP Time & Attendance is mobile for my workers

In my business, you have to make sure that your employees are showing up on time and leaving when they’re supposed to. All my workers have ADP Time & Attendance on their phones, so when they get to the job site, they clock in and I get a ping telling me where they are.

HR411 and Pay-by-Pay Premium Payment Program help me avoid surprises

We’re located in California, which is a very strict state. I know so many people who’ve gotten in trouble for working their employees when they’re not supposed to, or not paying them the right amount. So, I’m always checking my HR411 notifications. It keeps me up to date on what’s legal and everything I need to stay compliant.

I hate surprises, so I started using ADP’s Pay-by-Pay Premium Payment Program for my workers’ compensation insurance. Now, instead of getting a big, unexpected bill at the end of the year, I pay exactly what I owe every week based on how many hours my employees worked.
