## Reviews

### "Highly recommend for compliance and ease of use" — 5.0/5

> **Jaston** | *20 March 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to run scheduling, with time tracking, for my team that I can automatically pull into payroll. The primary reason we switched over to RUN by ADP was for compliance purposes. When payroll runs being able to easily track sick time, vacation time, worker's comp, and retirement with a few clicks has saved our company hours of work each week at a great price.
> 
> **Cons**: There are a few systems and communication pieces that our employees receive that sound a bit more corporate than our companies typical communication that I wish I could edit.
> 
> Highly recommend ADP. I've gotten my brother's company using them and have referred them to others in my city and community as well. It seems like many employees have worked for companies that use them at this point as well, so there's a lot of familiarity with how to navigate their systems. And all of that scale hasn't translated into a major increase in price which we really appreciate as a small business.

### "ADP for the smallest of businesses\!" — 5.0/5

> **Linda** | *25 April 2026* | Recreational Facilities & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I am a very small business, but ADP treats me just as if I was a big business.  The customer support is outstanding and learning the payroll system was so much easier than the other system I had been using.  The value in my time saved has been incredible.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing.  I couldn't ask for a better and more efficient system. Also, if I make a mistake ADP is right there for me.  They help me understand the details, fix it, and tell me to have a great day after we have worked together.
> 
> My overall experience with ADP has been outstanding and when I work with them on issues or have questions, they are right there for me.  I never feel I am alone in  my payroll because I have ADP and their team of professionals.

### "Simple to use but couldn't trust with Local tax filings" — 2.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *17 April 2026* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Setting up our Run was very straight forward and simple to use.  It was easy to run payroll and manage data.
> 
> **Cons**: While the normal transactions and interactions inside of Run were very good. The consistency of paying local taxes was a struggle.
> 
> We ended up leaving Run to go with another Payroll/HR vendor due to the extreme problems with local taxes being paid in the right amounts and to the right entities.  They did it correctly the first quarter, then never got it right until after we had switched vendors.

-----

### "Value Based Professional Platform" — 5.0/5

> **Russell** | *11 March 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use for any size company or number of employees. User friendly tabs with pertinent categories to keep one focused on necessary tasks.
> 
> **Cons**: Frequent necessary password changes came about at inconvenient times. Although necessary seemed forced when could be optional.
> 
> Functions well with guidance from support to help implement report processes. Used with our administration can be a very powerful tool to address HR and payroll issues when changes are unavoidable.

### "My life got a little easier\!" — 5.0/5

> **Michael** | *31 May 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Run  by ADP makes my job a easier when it comes to dealing with payroll for one, and many other services. Just started a small construction company, and not having to worry about what taxes go where and if i did anything wrong, is worth its weight in gold. &#10;The customer service i receive from \[sensitive content hidden\]&#10;l is amazing\! This guy answers me promptly every time i need something.  If he doesn't have the answer right away, i get it within an hour. &#10;When i make payroll i get a call from the implementation specialist next day to make sure everything went smoothly.  &#10;The app is easy to use and makes this part of my job mindless, would recommend ADP to anyone.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the app on the phone runs real slow and shows some different information than the computer app.
> 
> Amazing\! Not having to worry about if I'm paying the right amount and to where is top tier for me. They make this part mindless.
