ADP Resource (Discontinued) vs. Employee Navigator

I would highly recommend ADP Resource. It is a one stop shop for all human resource needs. One key question that I would ask on any product is: Does it cover all my HR needs in one application? ADP does just that.

Employee Navigator is well suited to introduce the beginning of an HRIS to the organisation. There are excellent features for management to keep track of employee numbers and assets. Employee Navigator is not so well suited as an employee hub. I think the next step here would be to evolve into a directory service that users can use to look up their coworkers' strengths and other work-related attributes.

• ADP has an easy to read portal that is easy to navigate. The UI is fairly intuitive and as a user I can find the right information quickly.
• The ADP portal is flexible in the sense that we can change payroll amounts for special circumstances such as a special bonus or special payout. This allows our payroll team to make the necessary changes right away.
• The reporting capabilities are quite robust and there are many ways to customize reports that we use for finance, payroll, HR, etc.

• Open Enrollment: It is easy to set up and a smooth process for the employees.
• Benefits Management: We used it to manage overall benefits, which helped a lot with billing and reconciling.
• ACA Compliance: We use it to track our lookback period as well as to file at year-end.

• My biggest peeve is....and they are aware of this - a new state is sometimes very difficult to set up. With all the different classifications in states back east, it can take days to get it set up correctly.

• We are relatively new users of Employee Navigator but so far haven't really run into anything that has been an issue.

I would renew my use of ADP Resource if I had the need. It is a great format but at this time I do not have the need for the product

Really.....I hate to keep repeating my self but I am very confident in any ADP software. They are worldwide and have proven their capabilities throughout the world

So far, we have had very little reason to call in to Employee Navigator support. Our team who works with them have found it easy and simple to work with them when needed. They aren't able to work on much or divulge how the system works internally, nor what's on the roadmap, but it is still helpful to have timely confirmation.

ADP is just a well known brand and is fairly affordable. Compared to other software such as Workday, it was a more affordable price point for our budget. However, if we had more resources and time to examine, Workday seems to offer a strong alternative to ADP in terms of payroll, HR, and financial systems. Overall though, there are more consultants knowledgeable about ADP which made it an easier choice for us

[Employee Navigator] knocks them out of the park and honestly isn't even in the same category as far as what it offers. In comparison Navigator is Windows 10 and Beacon is still on a dot matrix system.

• Positive - ADP has simplified our payroll batches as the payroll side is quite intuitive.
• Negatives - Because of a lack of internal coordination, we've often had to have multiple phone calls to resolve issues.
• Positive - The reporting within the tool has allowed us to be more efficient during our financial audits.

• Very positive impact on the employees -- open enrollment is a breeze! No more paper, and the dependent information is already there, they just have to make updates.
• From the employer side, you can print off the changes and key them into payroll -- everything is in one place, and so easy to use.
• The CFO is happy with the no cost, and less downtime with people asking about benefits.
