October 23, 2019 4.0 We're trying to mandate more use of the system and app - looking to go paperless and Dayforce is going to help Pros Flexibility - you are able to use the program very easily. I especially like the payroll function that allows me to verify before I process Cons Sometimes there are a to of steps to configuration that really aren't intuitive Reason for choosing Dayforce HCM Cost and a true cloud based system Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Manager Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Moved to Ceridian Dayforce to combine HR and Payroll functions" April 12, 2019 4.0 Pros Dayforce allows our teams to manage Time off requests, payroll requests (including the standard tax forms, direct deposit), and other HR data. Sad to say we had a three systems all doing these same tasks independently and to the detriment and frustration for the teams that manage all of this. Enter Ceridian Dayforce which allowed us to have full integration. Our managers have given positive feedback on the reporting and management of requests and changes. Our teams are more efficient and responsive now that we have implemented. Cons We still want there to be easier integration with performance management. We want to be able to store performance data, mid-year and annual reviews, and monthly notes based on manager interactions with team members. Hopefully this will be functionality that will exist soon. Review Source Response from Dayforce April 15, 2019 Thanks so much for sharing your Dayforce experience. We really value your feedback and wish you continued success! All the best, Victoria MC Martin C. Operations Manager Hospitality Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I Love Dayforce" February 16, 2022 5.0 I have used Dayforse for a few years and would recommend it to others Pros Dayforce is very easy to navigate, I like how you can customize the home screen Cons The reports can take a wile to generate, would be nice if the came up faster. Review Source Gordon P. Owner Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent HR product" September 25, 2018 5.0 Pros The recent upgrades has made this a great tool for any HR department. I am part of a multi-level corporation. This handles everything HR. Very clean dashboard and great features. Our company is not going through annual performance reviews and the tools is great. Highly recommend this product for any company of any size. Cons I don' t have any. Very impressed with this product. Review Source ES Evan S. HRIS & Payroll Ops Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "6 Months live on Dayforce HCM" May 12, 2017 3.0 Streamlined some of our manual processes, better reporting options, Automatic carrier feeds, etc Pros It's evolving at a steady pace with features and functionality. We have been through one new release and it included a brand new benefits and payroll modules that thankfully did not replace the previous modules for now so it wasn't disruptive. We have ample time to learn the new modules before they completely replace the old. The support model has been mostly very good. Cons There are still some bugs with the new functionality. I wish there was more control over the data to have an efficient method of fixing records that have bad data. I also think the learning curve is long to learn the advanced reporting methods of creating new topics. Review Source AA Aman A. Sr. Manager, Cyber Security Architect Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great product" June 2, 2023 5.0 Great product. Good for any size of organization. Pros Ease of use. HR loves it.

Payroll/Benefits Administrator Fishery Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Dayforce" October 23, 2019 4.0 Dayforce has helped our Company become more modern in the aspect that we are dealing with a younger generation of employees. They like the ability to have information and access at their fingertips as do I. Thank you Ceridian! Pros I like having the information at my fingertips and the ease of gathering payroll info from a variety of locations. Cons I do not like having some features in multiple locations. Review Source RM Renee M. Sr. Manager, Payroll Operations Media Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Dayforce is Dandy!!" October 23, 2019 4.0 Overall experience is wonderful, mostly in part by the partnership. Pros Dayforce is easy to use with all employee data within one platform. Cons some areas have increased latency which makes it difficult to get through some tasks with speed. Review Source BD Barney D. Vice President Human Resources Events Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "New User Good Experience So Far" October 23, 2019 4.0 Appears to be a group of proud, company centric, team focused employees Pros Integrated platform. We will use it to improve our new hire/seasonal hire process. Once we launch July 2020, the next year will involve become paperless. Integrated payroll and HRIS and ability to maximize employee performance are great opportunities. Cons New to product-Not able to evaluate at this point. Would love to have more face to face implementation meeting with the team. Online/zoom calls are nice. Makes for a slow build and integration. 2 intense weeks with the Ceridian team would provide the needed results. Reason for choosing Dayforce HCM Ceridian CEO knows the product. Dedicated focus on continuous improvement. We think it fits our business model. Comparatively competitive pricing. Once we implement, we will know more. Possibility to become paperless and integrate ancillary services were also key considerations Review Source SG Shane G. QA Manager Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Solid Software but Struggle with Support" March 22, 2021 5.0 The sales process was standard with an excellent rep. Having said that was told that each Live Force Education package supported 3 staff. Just to be told later that was untrue and would have shell out another $1200 to get 2 more staff trained. Took weeks to get answers to my queries. Was not impressed with the after purchase treatment. Got our money and then wanted more. Pros The functionality was exactly as advertised. Cons I found the software to be fine. Issues were with customer support. Review Source Amy N. Director of HRIS and Payroll Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A Truly Integrated Solution" November 30, 2016 5.0 Dayforce HCM is a truly integrated solution that delivers ease of use, transparency and control over data. Pros It is easy to use. Since the product operates on a single platform, there are no interfaces between modules. Cons It is expensive Review Source hP humberto P. accounting manager Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Dayforce review" October 23, 2019 3.0 Too difficult to use and understand its set-up and costly, poor customer support to solve problems. Pros The ability to review time sheets and and flow into payroll. Cons Too difficult to use and support service Switched from [MIP Accounting](https://www.capterra.com/p/116591/MIP-Accounting/) Needed more capability. Review Source CM Conchita M. HRIS Manager Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Conchita;s Review" October 23, 2019 5.0 I love the platform. I only wish I was a part of the implementation. Pros Intuitive, everything you need is in one platform. Cons Implementation was not the best experience. I would like to see a raid map that walks you through the platform step by step. Reason for choosing Dayforce HCM Best platform in comparison with the others.\[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] is one hell of a salesperson Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Director of Human Resources and Benefits Wholesale Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Overall the experience with Ceridian Dayforce has been a great. " February 23, 2018 5.0 Pros I like the all in one system concept. I had to shift my mindset as our previous system interfaced several products. Updates and changes in Dayforce happen as soon as the button is clicked. What's really great is, the system allows several pay cycles to be open at the same time. This allows changes and updates to be made daily for different cycles. Gone are the days of making payroll changes a few days before pay day. From a Benefits perspective, once a new hire has onboarded, they can immediately select their benefit elections. They don't have to wait until their information is pushed to another system. We look forward to implementing Recruiting and Performance Management this year.

May 2, 2018 5.0 Ease and efficiency. Pros I liked being able to see my schedule and paychecks right on my phone. When working multiple jobs being able to do these things on the go is crucial! Cons I had a bit of trouble with updating my availability/requesting time off. I eventually figured it out but there seems to be a few ways to do it! Review Source Andrew W. Sr. Actuarial Analyst Insurance Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy to review my HR related stuff in one simple app" May 31, 2019 5.0 Pros This app centralize all the needed info for company HR related info, like payroll, vacation schedules, etc. Simple to view and easy to find where the info store, one big improve is including support for fingerprint, save time to type in password all the time. Cons UI is kind of little bit outdated, could make the UI more colorful and in-line with other apps.

Would recommend to other colleagues Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Contact Center Specialist Events Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Dayforce - Straighforward & Helpful" July 3, 2018 4.0 Automated HR functions such as performance management, payroll management, benefits, employee communications. Pros Dayforce has been instrumental in streamlining our human resource management system. We utilize this system for employee alerts, employee accured time, timesheets, manager approvals, payroll, benefits, requests for time off and performance reviews. It's all one place now which is more efficient and a time saver. Cons The timesheet option is a bit complicated. It takes many steps to find your weekly timesheet with the totals added for each week, need to click on the calendar option which is confusing. Not very user friendly during the navigation process.

Hiring Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Hiring managers to determine need for cover letter " April 5, 2023 3.0 Lack of option for cover letter requirement at hiring manager's discretion is unacceptable. Unfortunately, we switched from a previous better system. Pros Clean looking and uncluttered interface. Cons Lack of option for cover letter requirement at hiring manager's discretion. Certain functions not intuitive and lack of training guides. Review Source BRIDGETTE J. Accounting Specialist Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 2+ years ### "DAYFORCE" December 13, 2019 5.0 Employee is responsible for keeping up with benefits and time off request. This made it easier on the employees to track and monitor. Pros We used Ceridian Dayforce to process our benefits and as a time off tracking system. It was easy to use and I would recommend.

HR Generalist/Payroll Public Safety Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "reporting & scheduling" October 24, 2019 4.0 Good - working through the issues with support Pros reports should be able to put numbers in two decimal places managers should be able to edit schedules on the same screen as timesheets Cons reports - creating employee change report - runs be change date not date range of change.

Payroll Manager Consumer Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "It takes a strong team!" February 2, 2017 4.0 Tire Centers has been on several Ceridian platforms over the 16 years I have been with the company. Dayforce HCM certainly stepped into the future of what the full service human capital management arena will look like. Through a tedious implementation and stabilization period we are very pleased with the offerings of the system and most importantly our end users are on board and have embraced the system. Pros User friendly for all levels of employee users. The system has been able to accommodate the specific needs of our business practices. Cons Multiple releases over the past few years has made it difficult to keep our internal training and documentation updated.
