Certified payroll for our construction contracts is not something the newer tools do properly. ADP does it, correctly, every week. That narrowed our options to about two vendors and this is the one that answered the phone.
Pros
Nearly 80 years of payroll behind it. It does not miss filings.
Cons
Reports that should be standard sometimes carry a fee.

Complex payroll they can actually run
We had a penalty notice from a state agency and ADP dealt with it end to end. I forwarded the letter and it was gone. Having been burned by a penalty at a previous employer, that service is the entire reason we are here and I would pay it again.
Pros
General ledger export works with every major accounting platform.
Cons
Reports that should be standard sometimes carry a fee.

Reliable, unpleasant, expensive
Every question seems to have a fee attached. Year end has a fee, W-2 delivery has a fee, a report we wanted had a fee. The base price was competitive and the real price was not.

It works, you just pay for everything

Add on fees for year end and W-2 delivery are not in the initial quote.
