What do you like best about RUN Powered by ADP?

I’ve had a great experience using RUN Powered by ADP for my payroll servicing. As a first-time user of any payroll platform, I was initially unsure about what to expect, but the transition was seamless thanks to the exceptional support I received—especially from Emma.

She has been incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and patient throughout the entire process. From setting up my account to running my first payroll, Emma made sure I understood each step and felt confident in the system. Her professionalism and timely assistance have made a real difference, and I now feel well-supported managing payroll for my business.

I highly recommend RUN by ADP for any small business owner looking for a reliable and easy-to-use payroll solution. The platform is intuitive, and the customer service—particularly from agents like Emma—is outstanding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RUN Powered by ADP?

One area of frustration has been the length of time it has taken for ADP to acquire a state registration number for my state tax filings. While I understand these processes can take time, clearer communication or more proactive handling of that piece would have been appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is RUN Powered by ADP solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the biggest benefits has been how ADP takes the guesswork out of payroll. They’ve made it easy to pay both myself and my employees without needing to manually calculate how much should remain in my operating account or estimate tax withholdings. The automation and clarity around funding and tax deductions have saved me time and reduced the risk of errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RUN Powered by ADP?

Since moving to ADP in 2016, we have never looked back. The ease of using the RUN program makes payroll a breeze. Whenever we have had a question, it has been answered quickly and efficiently. During COVID, we were able to process special pay categories to comply with ERC guidelines. It's so easy to ensure that your payroll is done right!

The implementation team is there to guide you step by step and the features to track benefit co-pays, education reimbursement, PLAWA, bonuses and vacation are so helpful to keep track of it all - with total compliance. Ease of integration was phenomenal!

We use ADP for onboarding and education required by the state and Run's HR platform makes tracking so easy.

I frequently hop into RUN every few days. It's such a time-saving tool and one-stop shop for all things HR, payroll, and benefit tracking. The payroll preview feature allows us to manage the upcoming paychecks and deductions for budgeting purposes for the upcoming payroll and making last minute changes easily. On the submit date, all you have to do is approve it and you are done. The reports are well put together and we can easily share information with our accountant.

ADP is the only way to work smarter in the world of small business! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RUN Powered by ADP?

It is completely user friendly from someone that has worked in a corporate setting before. After starting my own brick and mortar I needed something that could complete hourly payroll tips and commission. It was clear that it was a good choice after dropping my previous payroll company. The price point and customer service is top notch. The main site is so user friendly and navigation is easy. If i did have a problem I would not hesitate to call into the customer help line. I know that my employees and my business is take care of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RUN Powered by ADP?

The only thing that I dislike is that I am not signed up for the clock in clock out function ( it is not needed for my store). Because of this when i put in payroll i cant separate the line pays by date. I can submit separate pay lines just not with a date attached to it. It doesn't hurt my payroll process at all it would just be nice to have it for my own organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RUN Powered by ADP?

I was thrown into the HR role with very little training. As a family owned business, I took on the task to save on payroll. We were previously with Paychex and I had very little access to account management features or HR resources. We quickly switched to RUN/ADP and have been with them for about 8 years now. I have learned so much about compliance, record keeping, employee benefits, and tax forms just by having access to the RUN dashboard. We are a small business but I feel like we have the resources of a much larger company through our partnership with ADP. I was able to build an Employee Handbook tailored to our company and updated it regularly as laws and business needs change. When I'm not clear on something I can call customer support and speak with a live, stateside, representative within minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RUN Powered by ADP?

I wish the pricing was a little more small-business friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RUN Powered by ADP?

I have been using ADP for almost a full year now and I have to say, it is by far my favorite Payroll system I have used to date. It's ease of use and hassle free implementation are some of it's top qualities. If I have to leave the office for some reason I have no doubt my stand in will be able to run payroll without much fuss. I have used live chat many times when things come up or I have a question and they are ususally quick to come up with an answer. Onboarding new employees is also a painless process, with the option to enter the info myself or send it to them to do so. All and all I have liked this system and would recommend to anyone shopping around for payroll services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RUN Powered by ADP?

There are only a couple things I have had issues with so far in using ADP, one of which has been Unemployment withholding percentage mixups and the other is reports. I believe the SUI mixups are more of a result on how Alaska presents the information because I also had issues with QB on the same thing last year. As far as the reports, I can find most of what I'm looking for but there are times I can't find exactly what I want, that was availble in my previous system. I was able to make it work with another report it was just not as concise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RUN Powered by ADP?

Managing payroll and HR tasks used to feel like a constant tightrope walk, always worried about missing crucial regulations. Since implementing RUN Powered by ADP, that stress has significantly eased. It's like having a dedicated expert ensuring everything is handled correctly and compliantly – a huge weight off my shoulders!

What I appreciate most about RUN is its comprehensive approach to staying on top of ever-changing regulations. I no longer have to spend countless hours researching updates or worrying about potential penalties. ADP RUN seems to have it all covered, giving me peace of mind and freeing up valuable time to focus on growing my business.

Beyond compliance, the platform offers a fantastic library of templates for various HR needs. These templates are incredibly helpful and well-designed, saving me from having to create documents from scratch. They are easy to use and customize, making HR tasks much more efficient.

Overall, RUN Powered by ADP has been a game-changer for my business. It simplifies complex processes, ensures regulatory compliance, and provides valuable resources like the template library.

What do you dislike about RUN Powered by ADP?

The reporting capabilities are robust, but sometimes generating highly specific or custom reports can take a little extra navigation. Streamlining the custom report creation process could be a nice enhancement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is RUN Powered by ADP solving and how is that benefiting you?

RUN Powered by ADP is primarily solving the complexities and time-consuming nature of payroll and HR administration for my business. Before implementing RUN, I was constantly juggling tasks like calculating wages, withholding taxes, managing employee information, and trying to stay on top of ever-evolving regulations. This was not only stressful but also pulled me away from focusing on the core aspects of my role. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RUN Powered by ADP?

What I like best about RUN Powered by ADP is its ease of use and intuitive interface. It makes processing payroll straightforward, even for users who aren’t payroll experts. The automated tax filings, reminders, and compliance updates are extremely helpful and reduce the risk of errors. I also appreciate the employee self-service portal, which allows staff to access their pay stubs and tax documents without needing HR’s involvement, saving time on both ends Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RUN Powered by ADP?

One thing I dislike about RUN Powered by ADP is the limited flexibility in generating customized reports. Often, we need to manually adjust exported data in Excel to get the insights we need. Additionally, some features are behind paywalls or require upgrades, which can be frustrating for smaller businesses trying to manage costs. At times, customer support can be slow to respond, especially during peak periods, which delays resolution of time-sensitive issues like payroll errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is RUN Powered by ADP solving and how is that benefiting you?

RUN Powered by ADP is helping us streamline payroll processing and time and attendance tracking, which were previously manual and time-consuming tasks. The system automatically calculates employee hours, manages tax withholdings, and ensures timely and accurate payroll submissions. This has significantly reduced errors, improved compliance, and saved us valuable administrative time. Additionally, having everything in one platform—time tracking, payroll, and tax filings—makes it easier to stay organized and maintain accurate records for audits and reporting.

What do you like best about RUN Powered by ADP?

ADP Payroll services was an excellent choice to switch over from Quickbooks Payroll. They handle all my payroll taxes and anytime I have a question, they are very imformative and prompt handling it. They have very competitive pricing with a variety of other services.

Running payroll is effortless and seamless with easy navigations. I can even run payroll on my phone with ease, when I out of the office sick or on leave. I would give ADP 100 stars if I could. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one thing I would love to see from ADP in the hopeful near future is job costing that integrates with Quickbooks and other programs alike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RUN Powered by ADP?

I like the reminders when running payroll if an employee has a variance in their pay. The system is easy to use. Payroll is easy to run. Overall Customer Service has been helpful. I love the resources the system has as well such as Learning Library. Employees have stated that they like the easy of navigating the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RUN Powered by ADP?

There are things other systems do that RUN does not, for example when clocking hourly time it only does exact time, unless you want to manually change punches. Employees do not always punch exactly on time so there is always punches that need to be fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is RUN Powered by ADP solving and how is that benefiting you?

There was no big problem when we switched to ADP for payroll. It was more about our retirement plan and getting additional support along with education. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RUN Powered by ADP?

Run is so easy to navigate through, adding employees and all information necessary for their payroll profiles. Processing is an easy process. Setting up our new account was very successful with follow up along the way and also having an implementation team available for questions. Features are easy to navigate through and the integration from our old payroll company to ADP was amazingly seamless and thorough. I am in payroll everyday so I am accessing the account daily to check time clock entries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RUN Powered by ADP?

Wish I could add customized deduction codes, ie: we do an automatic half hour deduction, I am manually entering this on a daily basis. We don't accrue vacation, PTO, or sick time so again have a deduction code so I could enter on their time sheet would be fantastic. I had both of the features with previous company.
