I'm sorry, but I've seen numerous comments to the contrary.
Regardless, that they have APIs and documentation, regardless of your opinion of their quality, only supports my assertion.
ADP is not a monopoly.
Zenefits built a model that vaguely value adds onto ADP by using a more modern web stack.
I'm no huge fan of ADP, but they're being generous to even consider themselves to be competing with Zenefits.

ps: I'm pretty sure they're trying to do just that. But you have to consider just how incredibly difficult ACH is - not just from a coding perspective, but from a regulatory perspective. Banking and accounting legal entities need created.
pps: ADP knows good and well that Zenefits is working on their own ACH implementation with their buckets of cash. This is a preemptive strike.
I'm troubled by this assertion. I know firsthand that ADP will actively fight attempts to integrate with them; their APIs are bad, poorly documented, and have reliability problems. Should somebody attempting to do well for the customer--and, yes, make some money, but it's not like Zenefits is inventing problems to solve--not do well by the customer first and foremost?
Like, from my perspective: forget ADP, forget Zenefits. Is this better for the customer?
