Customer service when I call in for Wage Payment issues is usually very helpful and I get answers quickly. I have had several different CSRs since we have had ADP SmartCompliance and they have not always been the most helpful or forthcoming with information. It makes it difficult to do what I need to do if I don't have the help and support from those that know what needs to happen and when. I can't always have a conversation with that person when I need to.

It is very appropriate for new hires to be able to take training during on-boarding. for customer service, safety, and some policy training. It is also great for OSHA training. They have great management training, especially for first time managers. Also have HR training and updates as well for HR staff or HR staff new to their roles.

Pros
  • Upload agency notices when received in the mail
  • Provision a new state is very easy through SmartCompliance
  • There is a resource link within SmartCompliance that gives you a lot of information about the state you are entering with new employees, agency phone numbers, and helpful hints.
  • You can easily see your tax profiles and the status of each along with the quarterly reports that have been filed.

  • The law alerts are great especially since we are in two different states
  • They have an elaborate course catalog of training and the dashboard is a great tool when keeping track of the staff accomplishments
  • I especially like the Checklist they have in the Resources tool to ensure nothing is missed so we can stay in compliance
  • The template toolkits are very easy to understand and follow

Cons
  • I would like to be provided a copy of additional information provided to a jurisdiction when there is an Agency Notice resolution.
  • Access to the code used on the quarterly reports. Code numbers don't do us any good if we don't know what they are in order to address accordingly.
  • The amount of time for issue resolution on an agency notice, at times, can take a very long time before receiving a resolution and there is never a response when asking for an update.

  • Deleting employees from the system could be easier
  • Adding your own content would be a nice feature
  • Setting up your own dashboard would be nice

There is no other option on the table for us at the moment to go with a different vendor. We also have had very little issues processing with ADP that would make us want to look for a new vendor.

Usability
SOme historical information is hard to retrieve and communications go out to clients when ADP is doing some internal work. This is confusing when the client gets one of these notices but no action is required. ADP needs to stop the notices or put a message on the top so the client is aware.

From a user's standpoint, the platform was really easy to navigate, both from the employer and employee standpoints. I had no issues uploading employee information so they had access on day one, and I often helped employees access the platform and make sure they were set to complete their training. It was not often that we encountered an error, and when we did, it was easy to resolve for the employees.

Performance
If ADP is having issues, they communicate the problem within the solution once you log in. They also communicate that the issue will be fixed promptly. Reports run efficiently and in a reasonable amount of time. Also, the reports allow for various reporting types to be produced like a PDF or a Microsoft Excel file.

Support Rating
ADP's support team creates case numbers for every transaction and process. This case is being tracked for status update. ADP Support always notifies us the next step of the process by emailing us if action is needed or not. We can always check the status online and can follow up with them. We can also call them for instant answer to our urgent concerns.

They have annual training for Smart Compliance, which is very helpful. We learn the most up to laws for various subject matters, like garnishments, payroll law, child support, state unemployment laws by states. We also earn credit toward certifications. The training is user friendly, and highly recommended. It can be done live or listened to at your own convenience.

Although there are meeting schedule time to time during the implementation, however, some of the time the account manager is not able to attend or miss the meeting. as that said, never able to get a full house to discuss thing in detail with a group. ADP need to look into this

Alternatives Considered
ADP SmartCompliance had already been selected as a vendor prior to my joining the company. I think one area where ADP excels over OneSource is in the amendment processing. OneSource has a very manual process where you have to request each period/state/jurisdiction needed, then you have to manually review and approve each amendment within a short amount of time. ADP's process of submitting an amendment sync and automatically detecting what amendments are needed based on the information in the sync is much preferred.

We previously used ThinkHR, which I believe changed to Mineral. Outside of that, it was really just manual training with presentations and slide decks.

Return on Investment
  • we were able to outsource our garnishments, so that the bulk task it handled by someone else.
  • we have been able to process tickets quicker for missing deposits can we can see if the payment was sent back from the bank.
  • we are able to fund our final pay payments more efficiently and quicker

  • It has definitely been positive, but I'm not sure how I could measure the ROI. I feel it has given me more insight into certain situations, such as dealing with millennial employees, and has helped me to grow as a leader in my organization.
