Payroll can be completed much more quickly with dayforce. Cons State tax forms and onboarding are what i think Dayforce can work on. Onboarding forms are not smart and that makes it difficult for employees. Review Source AC Ashley C. HRIS Specialist Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Dayforce has streamlined payroll" July 20, 2015 4.5 Pros The product is easy to use and gives the user freedom. Customization is at the tips of our fingers and can be instant. Cons Customer support can be hit or miss. To be honest, there have been times when a familiar voice answers the phone and I will hang up and call back in hopes of a different support team member answering. Review Source MS Mary S. HR Manager Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Excellent technical acumen!" June 12, 2017 5.0 Pros Pros include the customer support and success manager. Pros also include the technical acumen that the system offers. Cons Dislike the dashboards & My Project. It appears that Ceridian needs to invest a bit more time and money into these features. Review Source RM Reid M. Training Specialist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Implementation is incredibly frustration" October 23, 2019 2.0 It has been frustrationg, because we cannot use it they way we hoped and were sold that we could. Pros The concept of housing all of the different features into one platform is very appealing Cons Implementation has been incredibly frustrating, and there are several features that cannot work the way they should. Our company does not have complicated needs, but Dayforce seems to not be able to handle our requests Review Source SR Stephanie R. Project Manager Medical Practice Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "So much better" January 8, 2018 5.0 Over all this has been a great transition for us! Pros Dayforce allows us to have 1 system where our employee records are linked and in one place. Our systems before were so dispirit. Policies were difficult to manage and each department was able to make up their own policies. This allows us develop one set of policies for the company and implement them. Cons The recruiting module leaves a little to be desired. Our recruiting needs are advanced and Dayforce does not allow us the flexibility to do everything we want. But in the mean time it has allowed us to take a step back and review basic practices. Review Source CE Cindy E. Payroll Manager Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Dayforce survey" March 2, 2016 3.5 Pros Before Dayforce we were on HPL which was very slow. We converted to HCM Dayforce July 1st, 2015. The implementation went pretty good on the Payroll side. The time saved is amazing. Once I learned how to run the reporting side of Dayforce I was able to audit payroll in a more accurate and efficient time. Overall this software is awesome. Cons Customer support is the one thing that I would say needs improvement plus our Dayforce representative. In 7 months we have met her once and she never returns calls. Once we signed off on implementation there were no more support at all. You are left to figure it out on your own. Review Source TD Tracy D. Payroll Manager Hospitality Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Challenging " July 25, 2017 4.0 Pros 1 single data base with real time data the ability to compare payrolls from last period and review taxes prior to submitting. Cons reporting is complex and time consuming and have to log into different roles to see different features is a pain. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer CDC Design Consultant Biotechnology Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Dayforce is easy to use and navigate. Some improvements can be made to the dashboard interface." November 8, 2017 4.0 Pros Clear display of information in each category (eg. Earnings & Benefits). Under the earnings category, each payslip is displayed clearly. I also like the overall look and feel of the software. Cons The dashboard on the front page is too confusing. Both categories and subcategories are presented on the same page, which confuses and overwhelms me every time. Review Source CV Cindy V. Vice President Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Our Dayforce Journey to Increased Efficiency" July 27, 2015 4.5 Pros Dayforce HCM is a one stop shop, user friendly and easy to navigate. We were able to streamline our processes and introduce the system to our field staff. Information they would normally tap into corporate office for is now at their finger tips and easy to find and use. The self-service portal has been a big hit with our employees as well. We are now totally paperless. Cons I don't really have anything that I least like other than support which has been addressed. Review Source Dusti K. Account Executive Broadcast Media Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Could be easier ...." November 17, 2018 4.0 My company uses Dayforce for timecard entry. Pros The software is fairly easy to use, easy to read, and updates instantly. Cons There are so many codes required, at least for my company. While the software itself is easy to navigate, I feel like I have to read a "how-to" document each time I fill out a timecard becuase of all the codes that have to accompany it. Review Source JC Judy C. Payroll Manager Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Dayforce HCM" April 11, 2018 4.0 Pros Global payroll processing, integration of HR and Payroll, product is very easy to accumulate to for new users Cons Unable to turn of courtesy tax withholding on a global level, audits of some modules not available , system sluggishness Review Source CF Crystal F. CSR Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "So many functions" October 23, 2018 5.0 This has offered a transparent overview of attendance and payroll for employees. Pros Dayforce provides the ability to request and approve days off, check payroll, view PTO days and more. Cons Management has a difficult time accessing the portal at times. Review Source MF Melissa F. Benefits Manager Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Went live 12/25/16. A lot of work but worth it." October 5, 2017 5.0 Pros The Payroll auditing features in real time is very powerful. Year end PPACA is so much easier than our prior software. Cons Need to be savvy in report writing to create your own teports. Configuration requires some SQL experience. Review Source AM Aileen M. Education instructor Education Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Amazing!" December 14, 2018 5.0 Pros We had several programs serving different functions and it became too much to handle. We are in the process of rolling out Ceridian Dayforce in order to keep everything in one program - recruitment, payroll, employee portals, vacation tracking, etc. It has been a dream to rollout. Very easy and it will make our lives so easy! Cons Rolling out will take time, as with any software. Review Source EG Erika G. AP Lead Analyst Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Going through Implementation" October 23, 2019 4.0 Still Learning Pros Self Service Functionality. Once implementation is finished and issues resolved, I am going to love it. Ease of finding functions. Cons Tickets take a long time to be answered, and when we update info, all of the sudden entries we did not do appear. Calculating payroll takes an eternity. I am still not able to Commit as I cannot do Audits. The perils of implementation. Review Source AK Arlis K. HR Manager Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Bad start, better support " October 18, 2018 3.0 Poor implementation, had to figure things out on our own. Product support is getting better in responding to our issues Pros The all in one platform . Applications, on boarding, hr and payroll Cons Limitations on .org structure . Not easy to figure out Review Source EL Elizabeth L. HR Director Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ceridian Dayforce is the way of the future " July 14, 2016 4.0 Pros We are always looking for a way to provide visibility to our Managers and employees. Automation is key, with Dayforce we are able to go paperless and automate most manual functions. Cons Implementation is time consuming, but worth it. The workbook is very intense and everything requires mapping. Review Source PL Penny L. Director of Finance Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Review of Dayforce HCM" December 1, 2016 5.0 Dayforce has streamlined payroll by allowing managers access to manage their departments. It has cut down the time spent looking for information. Pros What I like most is the ease of use as well as the time savings. Cons There has been an issue with our holiday stat scheduler for quite a while. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Service Desk Support Specialist Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great " February 1, 2019 4.0 Pros Able to easily sign in to check current and previous paychecks, view any benefits and current news provided. Cons Sometimes have issues logging in but clearing out the web page cache usually corrects it, quite annoying. Review Source Response from Dayforce February 22, 2019 We¿re so happy that you are enjoying your experience and really appreciate you taking the time to share your review. Very Best, Victoria VR Verified Reviewer Assistant Clinical Administrator Used the software for: 2+ years ### "We use this software for HR purposes at work, it works as expected. " May 15, 2018 3.0 Pros I like using Dayforce, it works the best it can for how we use it at my company. I don't dislike anything so far. Cons It's not the software I don't like. What I don't like is the my company only utilizes a small portion of Dayforce and then uses other software for things that Dayforce can do as well. I say, let's stick to only software for multiple functions but I don't make the calls on that. Review Source YP Yashira P. Payroll Supervisor Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Personal Review of my Experience " October 17, 2018 5.0 Pros I really enjoy how the system is under one umbrella. Meaning if we make any changes any where in the system, it flows through everything. Cons Support portal closes my cases before my issues are resolved. Review Source MK Melissa K. HR Generalist Environmental Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Dayforce for timekeeping " October 4, 2019 5.0 It’s been okay because I only use it for timekeeping and benefits. Pros Works well with remote employees. Has a mobile app. Easy for timekeeping haven’t tried the recruitment section of dayforce yet. Cons It doesn’t work well for our payroll it also doesn’t talk to other systems. We were promised it would do a lot more than it could and now are looking at implementing a whole different system. Review Source Aayush B. Trainee Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Dayforce is amazing" June 1, 2019 5.0 Amazing considering it automated a manual process in my company Pros The day force was implemented to manage the payroll and it functioned really well Cons It offers less features as compared to its competitors Review Source Response from Dayforce June 14, 2019 Hi Aayush, Thanks so much for sharing your Dayforce experience. We really value your feedback and wish you continued success! All the best, Victoria AH Al H. Infrastructure Analyst Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great product to keep track of attendance" November 10, 2022 5.0 Pros Great product to keep track of attendance, PTO, benefits, and payroll. Cons Nothing, app is easy to use and intuitive. Review Source DC Dan C. CFO Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Horrible implementation, training, and support" March 30, 2018 3.0 Unless you detail out EXACTLY what you expect from them as far as implementation help and training BEFORE you sign on the dotted line, expect a nightmare. Pros The system itself seems pretty solid and capable of doing most of what was shown to us in the dog and pony show we saw before we committed, if we could just figure out how to use it. Cons Implementation assistance and training was just enough to get us to produce payroll (mostly). After that, we got tossed over to "regular" support which is HORRIBLE. Response time for support questions is longer than any sane person would think is reasonable and usually the responses don't even come close to answering the question you submitted. We have been on the system for 3 months now and we still don't now how to use all of the modules (but of course we're paying for the whole system). I no longer even get responses back from our so-called implementation people.
