ADP Is a Payroll Powerhouse With a Wide Economic Moat
ADP has invested heavily over the past decade to develop public cloud native solutions and consolidate its portfolio of disparate platforms. ADP had successfully migrated most of its small and midsize clients to its strategic platforms as of fiscal 2021 and will be migrating enterprise clients to its new human capital management platform over the coming decade, as well as rolling out its new underlying payroll and tax engines. While we expect platform migrations to ultimately result in higher retention and profitability, the forced migrations will likely create a catalyst for enterprise clients to reassess providers, temporarily hindering both metrics.
