Gary ButlerAutomatic Data Processing, which has offered a limited test of a mobile application for its Run payroll system, is getting ready to make mobile applications available across its client base. Run was available for the iPhone and iPad, but will now be operating on the Blackberry and Android devices. They company already had "well over 1,000 people", using the mobile version of Run, according to CEO Gary Butler, speaking during this week's earnings conference call.

"In the next month or so, we'll be making that same app available in terms of the BlackBerry and all of the Android devices," Butler said. "And also in the next several months, we're going into the first rollout of making all of our mobile applications available to the entire client base." Butler noted that moblile payroll applications would generally be used in tandem with existing applications, not as a replacement. A person might use the mobile app while on the golf course, but return to use a PC in the office.

Butler said mobile apps will be available for products from Run on the low end to AutoPay for its Major Accounts and Enterpise accounts. "We're in the process of the plan to roll it out to our clients as well as to our sales and implementation people," he said.
