“Unlocking real-time insights from ADP labor data was crucial, but making daily comparisons between time card data in our ERP system with ADP was inefficient and time-consuming. With Flexspring’s ADP Workforce Now Essential Time to Microsoft Azure SQL integration, we can now reconcile and accurately track hours worked, enabling us to make data-driven decisions. We can confidently leverage analytics to optimize our time tracking processes.” - William Gemmell, Director, Data Analytics, West Star Aviation
