Where ADP TotalSource wins
- ADP TotalSource is last because our fetches of ADP's pages returned HTTP 403, so the entry rests on Wikipedia.
- That source says ADP is headquartered in Roseland, New Jersey, began acting as a PEO in August 1996 after acquiring Staff Management Systems of Tampa, and was founded in 1949 as Automatic Payrolls.
- We have no verified detail on benefits, states or fees.
- As a major, it also cannot take places 1 to 3.
Where it falls short
- Fees, coverage, carriers, contract terms and service model are not verified here.
- Ask for them in writing.
- The low position reflects our limited sources, not a verdict on the service itself.
- A company that wants a clearly documented offer should start with G&A Partners or ExtensisHR.
