It is smart to use ADP to stay in compliance.
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We used ADP SmartCompliance for our payroll taxes. By using SmartCompliance we didn't have to use the time it takes to pay taxes and fill our paperwork. They do all of the work for us. We used this approach because it decreased errors in pay and filing our payroll taxes. They also processed our W2s and sent them out to our employees.
Pros
- They provide an account manager to answer any questions or help you resolve any issues you may have.
- They resolve any issues you may have with the IRS or state tax agencies.
- They have a variety of reports that helps in balancing your taxes.
- They provide webinars and seminars to help you get familiar in using the product.
- I like that they create our W2s as well which saves on postage, paper and envelopes.
Cons
- When implementing the product, I think the training can be better.
- I think the account managers should check in with you more often even though you have no issues or you been using the product for a long time.
- More help in navigating the site not just by attending seminars but actually having one-on-one instructions.
Return on Investment
- It has really reduced my workload.
- It has reduced our risk of having errors when reporting taxes.
- It has saved me a lot of time in preparing tax forms each quarter and annually.
- It has helped save time and expense when doing W2s
