### "All around fantastic tool"

February 6, 2018

5.0

Pros

Very intuitive and easy for the end user to navigate; overall, less clunky than ADP. Even people who aren't familiar with software or computing for that matter can figure it out easily. The app is great as well and a necessity due to our mostly mobile workforce. Pay stubs and forms are clearly organized, labeled, and the graphs are a nice addition. Good value for money in comparison to other tools.

Cons

Sometimes it's confusing to have different login pages for SSO vs. regular login. Also, the SSO portion is iffy. At the end of the day, this is highly confidential financial information - perhaps SSO isn't the best method if someone could very easily be on someone else's computer and have access to their compensation information by clicking one link on a company intranet.

### "Good for Larger Organization"

February 15, 2023

5.0

Pros

I worked at a few companies who utilized DayForce as the software for clocking in, paystubs and scheduling. It was very user friendly and even after I left the company I could access my paystubs for a bit. The app was great to have.

Cons

Adding time off was time consuming and a bit of a learning curve. It could be updated now, but notifications about an upcoming shift would be a cool feature.

### "Dayforce is dynamic."

October 17, 2018

5.0

We’re turning paperless. We’re streamlining functions to become more strategic for our employees and able to concentrate resources on other projects.

Pros

Flexibility and versatility. Ceridian is big on making improvements and listening to their customers in order to add new features and functionality.

Cons

Because of the customization and versatility of the product, customer support sometimes has a hard time keeping up with the updates when you run into a challenge.

### "I use Dayforce for my part time employer to check my daily work schedule."

June 26, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like that I can access it from my phone and that is it easy to use. I like that I can request off of work and I can change my availability.

Cons

I don't like the desktop version as much as it is harder to find the availability option and it is easier to find it on the app.

### "Easy to understand work schedule software"

June 22, 2020

4.0

Dayforxe allows us to easily view pay stubs, make schedule requests and send messages to other employees. Overall I am happy with the program.

Pros

Dayforce provides us employees and easy to use and easy to navigate workplace program. We are easily able to view paycheck stubs and work calendars as well as make time off requests.

Cons

The constant need to change your password gets annoying. I'm not sure if that feature is able to be changed by the administrators.

Pros

SAAS platform allows for continuous improvements and implementations based on customer feedback. Updates are made overnight as needed.

Cons

Initial implementation took longer than expected, but it was worth the wait to get it right. (Additional modules were easy to add.)

### "Keesha's Dayforce HCM Review"

July 24, 2017

5.0

Dayforce Is a great tool and is definitely evolving. I cannot wait to see what the future holds with the product.

Pros

What I like the most about Dayforce is , the system is very user friendly. I love that we have a test environment to test all the products and determine what works best for us and what doesn't. I am able to perform any tasks in Dayforce quick and efficiently.

Cons

The only thing I would like to change about Dayforce is functionality to add more items to items such as pay approve checklist. This is to work like my day but the manager is not on the page as it is displayed in my day. So eventhough Pay approve checklist is a lot user friendly than may day I have to complete an extra step and run a report to find out who the manager is for the employee I am approving time for.

March 28, 2022

5.0

Pros

I really like how user friendly Ceridian Dayforce is! And not only that it provides real time tracking which is great because I'm able to view my calculated vacation days before and after scheduling.

Cons

The software could improve in regards to making notes that I input easily accessible by my manager.

### "Good application"

June 2, 2017

5.0

No real general comments other than the current support structure is a little disturbing. There are time you can call support and get a person to help and try and determine the problem. There are other times you get a person that literally tells you they are opening a ticket and that's it!

Pros

compared to older Ceridian applications (HPL, HPW, Source 500) everything is done and complete. No more application/Signature issues.

Cons

There is still a 'back end' that as a client I can not see. You used to be able to use SQL to make behind the scene application changes and have the data flow to Signature. You no longer need to flow anything to Signature but there is so some of behind the scene work the client can't do,

### "Dayforce solves many of our engagement problems "

August 26, 2017

5.0

Pros

Dayforce is very easy to use. This is true from the payroll, HR and employee perspective. Our performance management roll out was the biggest win so far!

Cons

Some nice to have features are not yet available and not all of the changes are included with each upgrade

### "Easy Peasy"

December 5, 2019

5.0

I like it. It's simple and personal and there's no old-school punching in and out of work. It also provides a means for employee communication which is handy.

Pros

I'm a new employee at Books a Million and this app so far has been super easy to use. You use it to clock in and it knows when you're on the premises and check schedule for the week.

Cons

No real cons. My store didn't seem to know the information to get me logged on at first. Perhaps it's more difficult for administrators.

### "Dayforce HCM user for 4 months now!"

February 12, 2015

3.5

Pros

The thing I like best about Dayforce HCM is that it is all on one platform. We came from a world of uploading and downloading many times to get the information where we needed it and in the format we needed it. This has saved us 1.5 days every other week in processing time! I was also very impressed with the CEO at how intimately he knows the system and can answer any question about it. You don't find that very often in CEO's, especially for a company the size of Ceridian. He's a very friendly person as well!

Cons

We find the adhoc reporting a little difficult. We are accountants and not very familiar with SQL programming, and SQL is needed sometimes to write expressions in the adhoc reporting. We are still pretty new to the system, so maybe this is something that will come with time. The customer service could use a boost as well. Sometimes we feel the time frame for our tickets to be addresses/completed are a little long.

Overall,an okay product that needs improvement.

Pros

I do enjoy the simplicity of some of the reports . However the onboarding was very tercentenary .

Cons

Support was not great. Packages should be catered to the company’s needs and wants not what’s standard.

One stop shop! The integration has been key to our HCM requirements. Dayforce has a great product!!
