    ADP Health Compliance is useful for employers to stay compliant with ACA Rules & Regs. I think it would be impossible to manage as a large employer without it. The tool gives us specific action items and employees to review. This helps reduce the mindless navigation to get to important areas. It also outlines potential penalty exposure and other "needs attention" items that are critical to know.

    During COVID, ADP Workforce Now was great about keeping up with changing laws and regulations. They built reports that helped us apply for PPP loans and then later apply for forgiveness. Webinars and other training avenues were well constructed, accurate, and informative. We were all at a loss together and having a partner who ensured the legal side was met was one less worry. They can easily do the day-to-day compliance and regulatory things. COVID highlighted how quickly it could be done.

    Pros
    ADP
    • The ability to breakdown the data into segments allows us to zero in on errors or problems that we can focus on in order to correct those issues.
    • The information is presented in an easy to understand interface which is very user-friendly and very intuitive. I have used the interface in the past to change data or approvals of forms. It was something I could figure out on my own due to it being so easy to navigate.
    • ADP Compliance is very good at pulling in the data and identifying issues and presenting it in method that is easy to work off of. We have many employees and the files we sent over were uploaded and processed. The errors were quickly identified so we could focus on correcting the problem employees.

    • HRIS that is personalized for the employee and addresses DE&I needs.
    • Payroll, of course! The system addresses all needs, such as deductions, additional pay, premium OT, and shift differentials.
    • Onboarding is an excellent way to stay in compliance and have all documents completed.
    • Tax and Banking and resolution to any issues.

    Cons
    ADP
    • Too complicated, too many screens and sections
    • LOA list is great, just needs ability to filter out termed EEs and by date range
    • More interaction and automation with Workforce Now, EEs approved in Health Compliance are not automatically updated or assigned an enrollment workflow in WFN

    • Customized pre-process payroll reports (Limited on pre-process payroll reports)
    • Labor Allocation (Allocations make payroll reporting very hard to review and find any errors )
    • Recruiting (ATS is very basic)
    • Geofencing (should be able to change shape rather than a circle)
    • Pay Classes (should be able to change at Practitioner level rather than reach out to support)
    • Cookies and Cache have to be cleared on a regular basis
    • Only able to see employee documents/acknowledgements one at a time in the employee file
    • Timecards can only be managed/viewed by 1 person
    • Timeoff emails do not have a link
    • Cost per payroll - not just monthly fee so cost with off cycle payrolls
    • Separate I9 step not needed - during onboarding - 2nd Everify step
    • ADP Workforce Now does not pull in allowances for Houly employees into payroll ONLY Salaried employees

    The 12 primary users represent our core Human Resources, Payroll, and Finance operations teams. Within this group, HR managers use the platform to oversee employee lifecycle events, handle benefits administration, and process new-hire onboarding. The payroll specialists and finance staff manage bi-weekly payroll runs, direct deposits, tax compliance, and general ledger reporting. Additionally, a couple of operational team leads use administrative access to approve timesheets, track attendance, and monitor departmental PTO accruals.

    I would give it a 10 however I do not like when ADP does facelifts in Workforce Now which does not add any value other than having to relearn navigation. I am also not a big fan of being forced to refer to the Bridge. We have Google which gives the same results. If I understood the answer I would not contact our Account Rep.

    this is my only down side of ADP, they dont transfer you around a lot (Good) and try to tackle the issue right there, but the english barrier is sometimes a huge brick that stands in the way, and can result in the wrong outcome. There has been times I have asked for someone else as I thought it was getting done wrong, and was still able to get the assistance I needed, just took me explaining it twice

    In-person training was pretty good - I think this significantly depends on the trainer. Our trainer was really good and showed what ADP can do - but I know that all trainers are not the same - and this truly makes such as difference. Overall, our training went pretty well.

    At the time training was not as expansive as it is now. If it could go wrong it did for me so the process was difficult and lengthy. I needed to have more in person walkthroughs of things to ensure the transition was done correctly. Not sure what else I can say, we were part of the initial move to Workforce Now when it was introduced.

    Either assign more than one specialist to the implementation process, or assign less clients to the implementation specialist. The process requires attention to detail and the ability to test and re-test as well as verify the information. It also requires a lot of back and forth between the client ant the implementation specialist, so they need to be readily available during the whole implementation process.

    Before using ADP Health Compliance, I used Paylocity's ACA tool while working for them. I'll be honest - Paylocity leads in design and innovation. They were using complex systems far before ADP had them. When we started using the ADP Smart Compliance system, we were expected to review massive spreadsheets as the system was not available. However, ADP got with the program and was able to produce a system that is actually very advanced.

    They pale compared to ADP because they each have broken systems that do not flow from beginning to end. Another system is required to support all of the functions needed to process payroll. That puts too much on me, the person, instead of the system. We should work smarter, not harder.

    We have been able to grow with ADP from just a few hundred employees to over 10,000 so it's actually very scalable for payroll usage. We do not use the benefits and onboarding offerings for most of our employees but they are built to scale easily enough for when our corporate team has over 1,000 FTE.

    Return on Investment
    ADP
    • Definitely reduced manual work for annual reporting is huge! Before implementing Health Compliance I was dreading the hours and days that needed to be spent in January to prepare the 1095s. With ADP Health Compliance, it took less than two hours to review and submit the forms.
    • The confidence that the tool is helping us stay in compliance and avoid penalties.
    • Ability to access targeted data without running numerous reports.

    • ADP WorkforceNow has provided a positive ROI for our company. It has saved me countless hours in the time I used to spend preparing reports, managing benefits, and annual enrollment, recruitment tracking, and much more.
    • The integration with Payscale has allowed our company to take every position in our organization and benchmark it to industries and job titles. This has allowed us to be more competitive on recruitment and retention.
    • We have used the new DE&I dashboard to provide valuable information on the landscape of our workforce, as well as areas of our organization that may not be as diverse.
