### "Dayforce HCM App is user friendly"

July 5, 2025

4.0

Overall I like how the different parts of the app are laid out. It is easy to access the different areas, and you don't need to click through multiple things to find the information you are looking for. I also found using the different sections of the app straight forward which was appreciated by someone who is not the most tech savy.

Pros

User friendly interface. I am able to easily locate and access the different parts of the app when needed.

Cons

When looking at the daily schedule for my team I am not able to see all team members working that day, only the ones in the same role/position as me.

I have enjoyed learning all areas of Dayforce and becoming a expert in Payroll and Benefits

Pros

It is very user friendly and the community guides you through areas that you need a refresher on.

Cons

I think the reporting section, needs a little work and running reports can be hard.

Overall great user experience. No issues or complaints.

Pros

User friendly and intuitive to the user. Visuals indicate where everything is.

Cons

At times it might be confusing where to find the bf s or if you don or have permissions to a certain module you won’t find what your looking for.

I think its okay as too many updates and requires lots of time to learn the system.

Pros

It's very user-friendly for employees. The system also offers wide range of tools that streamline HR operations.

Cons

Too many updates and the reporting feature is too complex and not very user friendly.

### "Easiest platform to use to manage employment documentation"

December 2, 2024

5.0

It has been great so far for part time jobs to manage schedules and payment information. The days of having paper documentation and clock in/out are gone.

Pros

Seamless platform to manage employment information. Easy to access and update schedule, tax forms and payment information. Shifts management in part time jobs is also a plus as you can easily switch with colleagues.

Cons

Clock in and out option should be more easy to access as it is actually hidden inside the settings and not as a quick access button.

### "Dayforce is usable for timetracking & payroll "

March 11, 2025

4.0

Overall, Dayforce is easy enough to use for clocking in and out and making changes to timecards. Finding your pay and time off requests are simple. I dislike the redundant email notifications to both personal and work emails and far too many notifications regarding the quarterly review process (even when no action is needed).

Pros

Easy to view paycheck and time off requests, the teamrelate profile (personality test) is a cool feature.

Cons

I despise that a 2 factor verification is required EVERY SINGLE TIME you log in, even on the same personal device.

### "Dayforce is okay"

January 23, 2025

3.0

Like I said, it got the job done, but it wasn't my favorite platform.

Pros

This platform did what it needed to do, and it was nice to have an all-in-one platform for hiring, payroll changes, and time clocks.

Cons

This platform wasn't precisely the most organized. It wasn't too difficult to navigate, but everything was everywhere.

September 25, 2025

5.0

I used it on my previous work, and I can strongly say that great software fro employee. I was always able to see my full payrolls, download it and manage my work time.

Pros

It's greater platform to manage your payrolls, taxes form, update your employee info, scheduled day offs and see your shift time. Easy to use.

Cons

No issue. Always works perfect. Web version has more option. Mobile app help to use it any time. No bugs.

### "Great program for employee self serve"

December 18, 2024

5.0

Pros

Great program for a large company, focused on easy accessible programs and employee self serve functions! My group feels empowered and capable, and know that I am there to support them in case the need it!

Cons

I personally would like to see more online training videos for myself as the HR person and some available for employees as well.

### "Dayforce - Almost Perfect Platform for HR & Payroll"

October 23, 2024

4.0

I've been using Dayforce as a Payroll administrator for the last 5 years. My experience has been very good. One of the best platforms I've used for Payroll.

Pros

The fact that HR and Payroll are linked together in one seamless application. The web interface and mobile app are very well-designed and useful.

Cons

Dayforce has an enormous amount of data that can be accessed—so much in fact that finding the right report to include all the data you want can be overwhelming. Not all the data is transferable between reports. For example, Timesheet data is not always able to be included with Payroll data.

### "Great HCM for complex companies. "

December 3, 2024

5.0

we feel very supported and solid from a platform and compliance perspective. They really have a deep bench of help.

Pros

Integration options, both import, and exports. The platform is very stable and the R&D efforts are second to none.

Cons

Lack of UDF in all areas. We see it in employee properties, but many object would benefit from the ability to add user-defined fields.

Happy customer. Once you learn how to use the system the things you can do are endless. Custom reporting and form workflows has been a big help this year.

Pros

Workflows and HR management system is one of the best I've used.

Cons

Support can take a bit of time. Experience level of reps varies widely.

### "Dayforce - a very intuitive sytem."

September 17, 2024

5.0

Transitioning from an in-house system to Dayforce is the best decision we ever made. Although implementation during covid was rough, and going live, we still have many policies not correctly configured. But after 3 years of using dayforce, I was able to modify some entitlement policies, pay policies that were not working properly. I do not have a computer programming background but the dayforce is so intuitive that I was able to do so.

Pros

The dayforce system is very intuitive. The continues calculation is a hot seller for me.

Cons

Initially reporting is the feature I liked least but once I'm getting the hang of it, it's not too bad.

February 6, 2025

Really good. I use it all the time to track what days I have off coming up, my remaining balance and to store and fine my payslips.

Pros

Easy to use and find info on. I can book time off quickly and find my payslips

Cons

Not sure why there are two ways to find the same thing. Seems repetitive

### "Great System, but only as good as the effort you put in."

November 6, 2024

4.0

I like the system a lot, but it is so extensive that it's impossible for any super user to really understand all of the granular functionality/configuration.

Pros

Flexibility and constant innovation. The software is intuitive but does need IT/Financial Analyst support to really have it set up well.

Cons

Some things that should be included in the software (basic reports) require that you pay for customization. Not a big fan of the transition from implementation to support. The hand off is very abrupt.

Overall it made tracking time and location and benefits much easier.

Pros

It has GPS location for clocking in and out. Makes accountability much better.

Cons

The gps location can be in accurate sometimes depending on cell service.
