ADP Workforce Now is priced at approximately $23-50 per employee per month (PEPM), depending on which modules you select. Payroll only starts around $23 PEPM. Adding HR management brings it to ~$28 PEPM. A full suite with compliance outsourcing can reach $50 PEPM. For 100 employees, that's $2,300-$5,000/month before implementation costs.
ADP Workforce Now implementation typically costs 10-20% of the first year's software fees. For a 100-person company at $30 PEPM ($36,000/year), expect $3,600-$7,200 in implementation costs. Larger deployments with more modules, data migration complexity, or custom integrations can push this to 25-30% of year-one software fees.
Move from ADP RUN to Workforce Now when you reach 50+ employees, need integrated benefits administration, require time and attendance at scale, want full talent management (recruiting, performance, succession), or need enterprise reporting and analytics. RUN is optimized for 1-49 employees with simpler HR needs. Workforce Now is built for the 50-999 employee mid-market.
Workforce Now is worth the cost if your team is 50-500 employees and you need a unified platform for payroll, benefits, time, and talent. The integration between modules eliminates manual data entry and reduces compliance risk. Competitors like Paylocity ($22-27 PEPM) are often cheaper for similar feature sets. Rippling offers a more modern UX at comparable pricing. The main reason to choose Workforce Now is ADP's compliance track record and deep tax expertise.
