RUN Powered by ADP is a payroll platform for small businesses. It runs payroll, files payroll taxes and handles year-end tax forms.
RUN can pay both employees and contractors, and it uses AI to flag common payroll errors before they affect your business. Recurring payroll can run automatically through a feature ADP calls RUN & DONE. New hires can fill out their own paperwork online before their first day. The Complete and HR Pro packages add a tool that builds an employee handbook based on federal employment law, and Enhanced and higher packages send updated labor law posters automatically.
ADP describes its Essential package as a fit for small businesses that only need payroll, taxes and compliance help. For growing teams, RUN adds hiring and HR tools such as recruiting, onboarding, handbook help and compliance training. Time tracking and worker classification tools help you manage labor costs and overtime. The time and attendance service, which covers schedules, hours worked and time off, is sold as an add-on.
RUN connects with accounting, point of sale, HR and other business software, and ADP says you can link it to hundreds of popular apps. A general ledger interface exports journal entries to QuickBooks, Xero, Wave or Creative Solutions, or to a generic file. Support from payroll and HR professionals is available around the clock, by phone or online. If you are switching providers, ADP includes guided payroll setup and migration support.
Essential covers payroll and compliance, Enhanced adds hiring and unemployment insurance services, and the Complete and HR Pro packages add HR support. Current pricing details are in the pricing box above.
