### "Simple and clean"

January 20, 2019

4.0

The software integrates well, though admittedly we purchased products designed to be compatible. Once running the system is very stable and reliable, but more in depth changes than what a day to day employee may use can pile up and bury higher users in a large number of requests

Pros

software design is easy and straightforward, the system is easy to learn for basic functions

Cons

More advanced features and controls are limited to users and administrators can be overwhelmed with simple requests

### "A Great Product with A+ Support"

December 27, 2016

5.0

I highly recommend Kronos Workforce Ready to companies with a limited IT Department who need a fully functional HRIS. Prior to the purchase of Kronos Workforce Ready, our payroll processing was outsourced and what little HR information we had was either in paper files or length, inaccurate Excel spreadsheets. Kronos Workforce Ready provided the most robust functionality at the best cost of our size company. The Kronos implementation team worked with our non-tech savvy HR Department to get the system up and running in very few months. Through the implementation process, we identified policies that needed to be developed as well as flaws in existing policies that needed to be more detailed. By the end of implementation, we not only had a functioning system, we also had a much more mature set of HR policies that our team members could easily understand and our HR Department could easily support and enforce.

Pros

Kronos' Customer Support is perhaps the best I've ever worked with. They never failed to respond promptly. They followed up with us when we failed to respond promptly. At the end of every call they always open the conversation to any other questions we might have on any part of the software. They were happy to log into our system and review functionality we had enabled on our own and look for ways to streamline.

Cons

When we made the purchase, there were no integrations with other systems. We use an external Benefits provider so we have to manually enter enrollment information and updates.

### "Human Resource Manager"

May 30, 2017

4.0

Pros

It's easy to use, like that you can code multiply employees at one time. Exception reports make it easy for deductions with our bonus program.

Cons

Some codes don't show on an exceptions report. If you code someone unexcused for a partial day where they leave early it doesn't show up on exceptions report.

### "Kronos"

December 3, 2018

3.0

Overall Kronos does the job but it’s not an easy or enjoyable experience using the program

Pros

There is not anything in particular about Kronos that I like, I mostly feel neutral about this program as it is slightly frustrating to use however at the end of the day it does do the kob

Cons

Kronos is not user friendly, is difficult for data entry and glitches if you do not full understand how to use to program

### "Kronos Workforce"

January 7, 2020

4.0

Tracking and reporting is great, unfortunately new system did not pull over all of our old records, including time cards.

Pros

Kronos offers a multitude of options for managing workforce, all in one place. I used Kronos for 7 + years so was very comfortable and familiar with it. Recently we changed to an updated version that allowed more options.

Cons

Once upgrading to the new Kronos system there were a lot of issues with set up which we did not get the proper assistance from Kronos customer service with.

### "Y of Greater Boston"

March 7, 2017

4.0

Great Product. Implementation was challenging but overall we are very happy with the product. It's easy now 2-3 years later to see what we could have done better, but focusing on having a great implementation will help the managers acclimate quickly.

Pros

Reporting & HRIS functionality! Timekeeping and payroll.

Cons

scheduling.. although they are working on this

### "Workforce Ready Daily Administration"

August 9, 2019

5.0

Kronos Workforce Ready is a great product and it's a breeze to work with on a daily basis but there is room for improvement in some areas.

Pros

The software is very logically setup and navigating thru the system is quite intuitive.

Cons

Resetting user dashboard isn't available on the administration side and needs access to user side. The logically setup of Tiers for management is a bit confusing.

Reason for choosing UKG Ready

Was already use before I got to this position.

### "This is our first experience at a true HRIS and we love the versatility, options, and it is easy to use."

June 2, 2017

5.0

Pros

We are a multi company organization and the fact that all employees are in the same database is very helpful and fast for us on running reports. Kronos is user friendly for us admins.

Cons

The VCA- it does cause problems for us and our work force as not all of them are tech savvy. Also, we don't like that you use an email address when completing an application at our kiosk- again, not all our work force as email and we are forced to make one up.

### "Great for Scheduling!"

August 14, 2020

5.0

My overall experience with Kronos Workforce Ready has been positive.

Pros

My hospital uses Kronos for scheduling and since it is a very large unit with a lot of employees, Kronos provides a great way to manage our schedule so that we know exactly when we come to work.

Cons

What I like the least about Kronos is that it can get a little hectic when requesting changes with managers and so I wish that process was changed a bit.

### "Workforce Ready "

May 23, 2017

4.0

Customer support was a letdown. Our "specialist" was in another county and it was hard to understand him and he had a hard time understanding our questions as well.

Pros

Workforce Ready has some great features such as being able to clock in and out remotely via smartphone, reviewing schedules and time via smartphone or computer and on-site with the kiosk. The fingerprint clock in is great- it keeps employees honest!

Cons

I miss the feature of employees being able to review their entire pay week on the clock - this isn't available online or via smartphone for employees either, which results in employees requesting a lot of printouts.

User-friendly and accurate.

Pros

Access of time productivity at your fingertips in real time.

Cons

Can view 30 days of timecards with a click of a button, would like to see up to 60 days with one click vs. going into my calendar by specific dates over 30 days.

### "Great Site!"

November 8, 2023

5.0

I have used Mo to both reward colleagues and receive rewards. It is very easy to use and the rewards are easily redeemed.

Pros

The site itself is very easy to use and there is a vast array of options to use your rewards!

Cons

It can be difficult to navigate when you first start using the site, however, there are walk throughs and once you are used to the platform, it becomes very easy to use.
