Payroll Systems - 2005/05/10 13:29
I am looking at replacing ADP as our payroll provider. The ADP fees have gotten outrageous for a smaller company like ours. What payroll providers other than ADP do people use and would you recommend them?
Thanks.

We use ADP and are considering going to Quick Books and doing it ourselves. Would you want to talk to our payroll berson?

Hi
We use Peachtree. We have about 80 employees throughout the year.
Peachtree is really designed for a smaller company, but I've just made adaptations to make it do what I want. I have pre-tax and post tax deductions, retirement plan, wage garnishments, etc.
I've found (from using payroll companies in the past) that the hardest part is the figuring out the hours (which you have to do anyway, regardless of system) and then when it comes back to us I have to do a lot of verification. I was always forgetting to tell them to take extra medical withholdings, or not to take them, etc.
For doing all that, I find it's a lot easier to just do the payroll myself (and I know it's right)
My favorite sales pitch: ADP now allows you to enter in all of your information directly into their computer. So what are you paying them to do?
We have manual checks and balances set up to verify weekly totals against each other and also to verify amounts withheld. We would never go to a payroll provider again.
If you know what you're doing, I think you will find it well worth your time and money to do it yourself.
Had a REALLY BAD experience with Paychex. Would not recommend them at all.

We use Checkwriters in West Springfield. I particularly like that the checks are cut from their account (no bank reconciliations!) and I have a great deal of flexibility when I need reports. We enter our own payroll through pc input but they process everything. I have the ability to show staff the effect on their checks if they change their tax withholding or if they joined the 401k, etc. I can also design my own reports in Crystal Reports for more individualized reports. I've used their system when worked at a large company with multi departments/positions, etc. as well as an employer with 35 people. Also, once you set up your general ledger to your codes, it is is really easy to make journal entries each month. Pete Whalen is the salesman there. I love it.
