What do you like best about ADP SmartCompliance®?

We are a new user and have been with ADP for one year now. We use SmartCompliance quite a bit for managing our invoices and our tax payments. We also love the wage garnishment feature. That has been extremely useful to our business as we get a lot of garnishments during our busy season. The tax management seems to work well also; we haven't had any issues there, and for the most part things are easy to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ADP SmartCompliance®?

We don't use the reporting as much as we might, and would have loved a little more training on what options are available there. And initially the Medical Documents feature didn't work right and we had to work on that, but otherwise it has been great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ADP SmartCompliance® solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing garnishments has been a huge problem for us, and this tool definitely helps simplify that process. Medical support notices too. The payment and management of all of our different tax accounts is also very helpful as we operate in 13 different states in the U.S. and have a lot of seasonal employees, so lots of different taxes.

What do you like best about ADP SmartCompliance®?

ADP SmartCompliance has been super helpful to us in keeping our organization compliant. I've really come to appreciate how user-friendly the platform is when training others how to use it. Everywhere from uploading tax notices to setting up new accounts and validating garnishments with our payroll system has been an almost seamless process. I also like that everything is accessible within SmartCompliance. If I have a question, there are help links available, along with chat and service request options. My favorite aspect of ADP SmartCompliance is how time-saving it is. This is important because it allows our small payroll team to focus on other specialized tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ADP SmartCompliance®?

I dislike that some tax notices are not thoroughly investigated or reviewed. Often, comments on these notices go unnoticed, as they show as "not reviewed by ADP." It would be helpful to allow the client to add comments after the initial investigation or review of the tax notice. Our only option is to re-upload the tax notice and hope the comments are noticed the second or third time uploaded. Adding this feature would save time for both the client and the ADP tax analyst as the analyst would already be familiar with the tax notice, rather than having a new person review it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ADP SmartCompliance® solving and how is that benefiting you?

ADP SmartCompliance solves our problem of not having sufficient personnel and helping ease time constraints. ADP SmartCompliance allows us to redirect our efforts into other tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ADP SmartCompliance®?

I want to give a shout out to their IT team members who work behind the scenes. They are very knowledgeable and helpful to identify and correct processes that get out of sync. Great customer service and always cheery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ADP SmartCompliance®?

To not have direct access by phone to my customer service representative. The wave of the future is to monitor all things via email, which is a new look and feel for the users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ADP SmartCompliance®:

Identify all your internal needs, I recommend the Tax Filing and W2 reporting and Wage and Child Support processing. This has been a huge benefit for our Company. This has reduced the need for amendments and W2c's. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ADP SmartCompliance® solving and how is that benefiting you?

Balancing tax filing and W2's is efficient and accurate. The time frame for quarter processing helps the user to stay on track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ADP SmartCompliance®?

I like being able to review taxes, wages, garnishments and invoices all in 1 place. It is realitivally easy to manage. I like that the home page has tasks that need attention and you don't have to rely on emails. Also that you can see links in multiple areas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ADP SmartCompliance®?

Time out is way too quick.

There is not a option to direct the tax team to apply an agency tax credit direct to the next quarter filing.

It takes way too long to have the quarter filings to post to the site. Also, the data provided in the returns is not complete. We should see the exact agency return form for all agencies. Vouchers for monthly deposits is not enough. We should have all information provided as if I was the one filing the return Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ADP SmartCompliance® solving and how is that benefiting you?

Garnishment management - happy to not review, complete and enter garnishments. Nice to know that the information is going to our employee records and taken care of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ADP SmartCompliance®?

The Smart Compliance website is easy to navigate as each service is contained within a link. Reports can be customized by year, quarter, agency to narrow down criteria and produce reports without unncessary information. Tax agency notices can be uploaded for research with auto fill feature to save time. Invoice and reports are available anytime and are stored indefinitely for old and/or closed periods. Drag and drop wage file upload is great - wish tax and garnishments worked the same. The customer service teams and reps who work at ADP for the smart compliance site are knowledgable and usually able to resolve issues quickly and efficiently. I use the site several times a week and every update seems to always bring better features to aid in processing payroll, paying taxes, and taking care of garnishment payments. Also having a direct link to W2/year end functions and testing is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ADP SmartCompliance®?

I wish Smart Compliance would sync/work/ was compatible with Total Source so my company could utilize the full power of ADP in all aspects of HR and payroll.

It would be nice if the garnishment file transfer and the tax file transfer were easy as "drag and drop".

I would like to see the ability to search and/or download individual employee paystubs one at a time or selecting several at once. Right now I can only download the entire company. When an employee needs multiple copies, I have to extract each one from a separate weekly file. (Similar to the way one can download pdfs on the ADP app) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ADP SmartCompliance® solving and how is that benefiting you?

Paying taxes on time, processing direct deposits, and paying garnishments electonically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ADP SmartCompliance®?

The best thing about SmartCompliance is that it provides access to a number of features and it is pretty easy to use and navigate. It is easy to update your SUI rates, access filing records, seek assistance via the help tool and so much more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ADP SmartCompliance®?

One of the things I idslike is not always being able to access historical tax authority history or the ability to deactivate a tax jusrisdiction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ADP SmartCompliance® solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use SmartCompliance mainly for the employment tax functionality and it provides me with tools to help identify local taxes, access to tax records, as well as support when we receive an agency notice. I also appreciate all the links that can be found under the help functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ADP SmartCompliance®?

I've been a customer of ADP for more than 20 years. In that time, I've watched the tax services product grow and expand to be the leader in the tax services arena. What I like most about ADP SmartCompliance is having our tax records at our fingertips, the ease of the integration between Workday and ADP and the assistance I get resolving tax notices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ADP SmartCompliance®?

There are not a lot of things I can honestly say I dislike about ADP SmartCompliance, however one thing I'm not a real fan of is that they've gotten away from "face to face" customer service. What I mean by that is, I used to have quarterly calls with my account manager to review any anomolies and, I used to be able to email my account manager directly, and now I have to open a case online. I really liked having that direct connection, but I understand that times have changed! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ADP SmartCompliance® solving and how is that benefiting you?

ADP SmartCompliance takes the heavy lifting of remitting and filing our taxes and producing and mailing our W-2's! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ADP SmartCompliance®?

Our account manager Joanne provides amazing service with very quick response time and detailed information. We appreciate the access to all historical returns (including amendments) that is easily searchable by period, tax type, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ADP SmartCompliance®?

Would like the ability to communicate directly with the ADP agent that is working on resolving agency notices. Amendment process could be clearer as to why certain items get picked up on an amendment sync (such corporate officer employee status) when no changes were initiated by our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ensures payroll taxes and returns are filed and paid in a timely manner to avoid P&I. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
