If you need a simple but extremely feature rich platform this is it.

Can't say anything bad about it. Is that a bad thing?

### "Dayforce has been a real transformation for us"

May 14, 2018

5.0

Pros

There are many pros to Dayforce. It's eliminated around 100 spreadsheets, automated timekeeping and attendance, simplified and streamlined our HR processes and brought our department into the 21st Century. We've been able to save time and save money since its implementation - removing the need to employ an additional HR team member. It really is an amazing application.

Cons

Sometimes reporting can be complicated - but one we've got the hang of it, it works really well and is a very robust system.

### "We have been with Ceridian now for 9 months for both our Domestic and International needs "

September 21, 2017

5.0

More efficient than previous software used

Pros

Payroll processing is by far the easiest on Dayforce than on any other system. I particularly like that I can run a processing at any time to provide financial data to the Accounting Departments when asked.

Cons

At the quarter end, when we have to open an Off Cycle payroll to enter termination checks or misc earnings after the final regular payroll and the end of the quarter, the Off Cycle is missing a feature that allows for you to "Pay Out To Date" an employee. The problem then occurs that the hours or generated earnings being paid are not marked as paid so there is the chance that they will import to the next regular pay cycle to be paid again.

### "Great product!"

June 2, 2017

4.0

A one stop shop for mostly all human resources and payroll functions.

Pros

The integration of payroll, scheduling, document management, performance management, recruiting, and onboarding on one platform.

Cons

It can be more intutitive. The system is easy enough to operate, but I think it would be more beneficial if some of the features were more intuitive so new users can become more efficient in a quicker manner. It takes some getting used to. I would recommend changing the format for drop down selections. It isn't always obvious to new users.

### "Ceridian Is Alright"

March 15, 2019

4.0

Pros

Ceridian Dayforce is not the most robust of HCMs (human capital management) but it gets the job done. Accessing payroll records, updating benefits information and utilizing the time clock functionality are intuitive for anyone with basic computer skills.

Cons

The least optimal feature of Dayforce is the amount of time it takes the software to load (generally one to two minutes) when logging in. This can be frustrating for hourly employees.

### "Reducing payroll cost"

October 17, 2018

5.0

My experience has been very positive and I think support has been a huge help when I have gotten stuck on a feature that I want to use.

Pros

It is very streamlined and when you take advantage of all the features you are become very efficient. I like the way all of the components feed into each other and take very little manual intervention.

Cons

It is still sluggish with the slow upgrade to html.

### "Review HCM 1st year"

April 25, 2017

4.0

We started in January 2016 with HCM . At first we struggled but as the year went on all parts of the module became easier to use. I don't receive as many requests for payroll information. Employees are using the system better than expected.

Pros

It has a lot of information needed to do reports and Journal Entries. It's easy to navigate thru and gives me the information I need.

Cons

Some reports are hard to read. Customer service at times has trouble either getting back to me or they fix the problem but don't tell me how they did it so if it happens again I can fix it.

### "Horrible Help"

February 27, 2020

3.0

Overall I guess it's fine, from what I've seen if your a company, its not worth your money. You can find nearly the same thing for way cheaper. There app is unaccesible, you can't request time off without worrying if the app actually accepted it. You have to basically do everything online anyways, seeing your tax forms? Can't see it on the app. If you ever forget your password? Good luck to you, customer service kicks you right in the hiney. All they do is feed you lies that you want to hear. I recommend when I work and finding another payroll company that is better. Go somewhere else.

Pros

The layout looks professional, not just another quickly put together app. Nice, clean and modern vibe.

Cons

The customer service and help is absolutely the worst I've seen throughout all my years using other scheduling apps. They do not try and help you as best they can, in fact your lucky if you get an email back. They aren't accessible in anyway, shape or form.

### "Great in the US and Canada. Globally it needs improvement"

October 23, 2019

3.0

We have solved a manual T&A process in the countries we have implemented globally.

Pros

User interface. Ability to integrate payroll in the US and Canada.

Cons

The implementation teams are not aware of product functionality. To many interfaces to manage internationally. Way to may fail points.

### "Just went live!"

October 17, 2018

4.0

Overall - just easy to use and great for our employees!

Pros

The all in one solution for timesheets, Benefits, payroll and other features. The ease of use for our employees always for so much more independence in individual needs.

Cons

Some features we had in our legacy system are not available - but we have put them on the Ideas portal for future implementation (hopefulily)!

### "Great HR tool"

September 11, 2020

5.0

It's software that makes interaction with HR seamless and effective, I believe it saves a lot of time of going back and forth via email or other means of communication.

Pros

Very easy to manage all my HR requests, such as time off, personal data changes or evaluation reports.

Cons

The time clock has a little too many options, so it's easy to click on a wrong "event". It could be prompting you to select a certain event based on the time of the day and your previous selections.

Pros

The benefits enrollment. We have seasonal employees so not having to do it manually is great

### "Love hate relationship "

October 18, 2018

4.0

It is overall well liked and appreciated. However it has a reputation of having issues that take a very long time to fix...because of the support set up

Pros

Title can do pretty much anything you need it to do, even the craziest pay structure or org structure

Cons

That it’s so configurable that it’s sometimes very hard or impossible to configure it correctly without professional IT assistance.

### "We have used Dayforce for more than 3 years now and it has come a long way."

November 9, 2017

5.0

Pros

I like the fact that I can now access Dayforce from multiple internet applications, including my Mac. The convenience has helped me tremendously with my very busy schedule.

Cons

What I like least about Dayforce is it can run slow and reports can take a while. There is no mobile application available for employees, it is view only from a mobile device.
