## Roll by ADP Reviews
  ### 1. Cheap - You get what you pay for

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kaitlyn G. | HR Manager, Real Estate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 12, 2025

**What do you like best about Roll by ADP?**

It is super inexpensive and works fine for a really small teams. Only pay for who you pay which is nice when you are working with contractors who are not all paid on a regular basis.

**What do you dislike about Roll by ADP?**

It is not a super user friendly app. It can ONLY be used on your phone and its short of clunky. Everything is done through a "chat" on the app and it can get hard to navigate. If you have more than 5 people on your team I would stay away from this if you can.

Paying contractors without any W2 employees.

I enjoy your roll because of the ease of the process the support on the back in with the chat function When submitting a ticket overall it's an easy and pleasant experience when you are a busy business owner.

**What do you dislike about Roll by ADP?**

There are a few things that come to mind but have been corrected from support but one of them is child support and how to complete changes with the amounts when that happens. Also, there are not social sec numbers on the paystub's so when verifications need to happen, those numbers are not on there, and those forms cannot be used.

**What problems is Roll by ADP solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The app being able to be used on my phone instead of going to a website is very functional for a small business owner that handles mini hats

How knowledgeable the chat agents are about all the various state and local regulations, and the willingness for ADP to make amendments as needed.
