Gusto vs ADP Comparison

Many know Gusto by its older name ZenPayroll, but the service has improved even more since its rebranding. The first thing you’ll notice about Gusto is its sleek design, which makes using the software a much less daunting task for payroll novices. Indeed, anyone can start running payroll with confidence while using Gusto. The service is also totally paperless, and you can customize your digital paystubs. Perhaps the crowning achievement of Gusto is that it will calculate all your taxes for you, saving you the nightmare of grappling with all the different types of payroll tax. Although Gusto is light on integrations in comparison to ADP there are still a lot of useful addons to choose from. For an extra fee its users can also get additional personal HR assistance to help with hiring and onboarding.

It’s not the most exciting name around, but ADP stands for Automated Data Processing and the company has been helping businesses automate payroll effectively since 1949. As a service, ADP is aimed at businesses of any size with the idea that the software grows as your company grows. New users will find that although the software may look complicated initially, it’s developed to help guide you through the process and is very quick to advise you on any potential mistakes. Whether you’re paying your employees or contractors, ADP will be able to easily process payroll and slips can be sent out digitally or through printed physical copies. However, where ADP really shines is with the advanced HR features. With these extra HR functions, you can have workers clock in and out over the mobile app (for greater payroll accuracy), create employee handbooks, and much more. If that’s not enough for you, simply browsing ADP’s extensive list of integrations should show just how much the service can do for you.
