Since we conveniently have an inside man, which one of the payroll providers would you recommend us use when we start a startup?

Why not buy up some other domains and setup forwarding to your Zenefits employees. This way ADP can't block you and your customers still get the benefit!

In a well designed system this kind of segmentation and isolation can be done in a way that is transparent to the user experience. TL;DR Have your front end talk to multiple backends-
Is this using "TLDR" as a synonym for "hint"?

#96ADP online access is awful. They make up a username for you, some combination of first initial, last name @ company name. Then the login isn't a modern system, it's the old "authentication required" browser pop up, which disables any user remembering or password managers. Such a pain to deal with!

I see you getting downvoted, but I don't think that's fair. Whether people like it or not this is almost certainly how ADP views the situation. The term "disintermediation" used to be tossed around 10-15 years ago, to describe the process of upstart tech companies getting between older, slower moving companies and their customers. ADP is definitely in the older, slower moving category. Defense is probably the only re…
Sorry to quibble, but I don't think that's what "disintermediation" means. Disintermediation typically refers to "cutting out the middleman", not introducing additional middlemen. Cf: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disintermediation

#98ADP has some of the worst online offerings. In order to see my paystub or signup for health coverage I use one site. To request time off I have to use a different ADP site. Both have different usernames and passwords. Both sites look like they were made in the IE 5/6 web development drought. I have no real complaints though with how everything actually works though, never had an incorrect paycheck or messed up PTO.

What I don't get is if the integration is one-way from Zenefits to ADP (and not vice versa) why all the data allegedly being pulled back from ADP?

I used to send a monthly email asking for my payroll slip since VS2013 required an upgrade to IE 10/11 and adp was only able to run on IE 5-9. The thing that always got me was the error message which ran something like: "please update your browser to a compatible one from this list of 4 year old software, your current browser is not advanced enough". Sigh.
