Who it's for

RUN Powered by ADP is listed as a fit for solo practitioners, small firms and mid-size firms, and the vendor names accounting practices generally on its own site. The job it gets hired for: running client payroll, bills and receivables through a firm console, with AI catching what's off.

What it costs

RUN Powered by ADP is priced by quote, so the demo is where you get a number tailored to your firm. Ask the vendor about a trial when you reach out.

Good to know

RUN is ADP's small-business payroll and HR, and Accountant Connect is the free platform firms use to work across clients: a multi-client dashboard, scheduled multi-client reports, GL mapping and pay-data import into QuickBooks, Xero and Sage, plus a CCH AnswerConnect research library and Wolters Kluwer IntelliForms thrown in. ADP Assist is the AI — a virtual assistant for payroll and HR questions, a payroll inspector with AI-enabled error flagging and smart timesheet import. Firms can refer and earn up to 75% revenue share, process payroll on RUN for Partners, or sell their payroll base to ADP. Packages are quoted, with no contract required; SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type 2 reports are issued.
