A tool to help manage global payroll that needs to improve the area of customization after its implementation

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a six out of ten. With ADP GlobalView Payroll, if I have to scale up the operations, one of the practical challenges I would like to highlight here is that in the post-implementation phase, if there are any new system enhancements or customization requests, it takes a lot of time to work with ADP to implement such changes. In the present time, every business has to operate in an agile manner, but I think that when it comes to the area revolving around change and control, there is a cost involved in ADP, and it comes as part of ADP's global contract. Most of the time, users may find that the prices quoted are not reasonable to justify the efforts involved from ADP's end. Most of the companies that fall under the category of Fortune 100 use ADP GlobalView Payroll, especially in the APAC region and Europe. The good thing with ADP GlobalView Payroll is that its system can be integrated with any HR system, like Workday or SAP SuccessFactors, since the integration is very seamless because many companies use global HR systems.

Simplifies payroll processing and reduces the need for extensive marketing efforts while providing scalability, compliance, and excellent stability

I believe there is room for enhancement in the scope of services. We encountered challenges at times in clearly defining it, particularly because the firewall domain is extensive and demands localization for this service. Consequently, there is occasional confusion regarding whether a service falls under the standard category or is considered an add-on. I think there is a need for a deeper level of comprehension.

Pros

"If someone wants a good payroll system with a good presence in the APAC region and Europe, then without a doubt, ADP GlobalView Payroll falls at the top of the list of best tools."

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"Good solution if you want simple, static systems."

"They are very strong in terms of having a central regional system, where a regional person can see and monitor the calendar for each different country and know what stage they are in, if the process has been finalized and approved, and if the process has gone back to the bank, all monitored regionally."

"The ability to have one reporting for all countries is valuable."

"The product allows you to create and manage shared services centrally even in small countries."

"I like the reporting feature as it allows me to generate reports independently without relying on a payroll consultant."

"The most valuable feature was that everything was in one system."

"The advantage was that ADP Streamline was inherently designed to serve as a marketing engine for the company."

"The product is good, user-friendly, and effective."

"They are very strong in terms of having a central regional system. A regional person can see and monitor the calendar for each different country."

Cons

"The portal where employees log in to check their weekly tax statements is called ADP ESS, an area where improvements are needed."

"Projects tend to take longer because ADP wants to manage everything."

"With big companies, it takes a long time to run when it comes to the reporting part."

"The UI could be improved to be a bit more modern or trendy because it looks old-fashioned compared to other systems."

"I think there is a need for a deeper level of comprehension."

"The product is not quite up to our expectations."

"Having more clear guidance on design and training would be beneficial."

"The reporting tool could be improved as it currently is just a data dump and much manipulation is required."

"They could improve the service relationship manager (SRM), because they have an SRM which is not familiar with Simple."

"We had to scrap plans to integrate Brazil because it was not doable."

"The pricing is high as compared with other products in the market. For a small service that is out of scope, it has a huge service charge."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe that ADP GlobalView Payroll is an expensive solution."

"If users consider the license of the solution, then it is an expensive tool."

"The amount we pay is not low, and it is not high. It is average."

"Our company had a standardized pricing model based on the number of employees."
