### "HRIS tool to have"

October 20, 2023

5.0

Incredibly positive and nice user experience with all the necessary data at your disposal.

Pros

While it took some time to get to know my way around many options Workday provides, it has lead to a great learning experience and the use of it now is easy and positive. We use it for employee management and learning center. Course ar nicely tracked and the employee is able to see all his data like compensation, vacation and carrier options.

Cons

Steep learning curve, but once you are up to speed it's a breze to scroll around the tool.

### "Intuitive and fast"

September 18, 2022

5.0

Pros

The software is easy to use, intuitive even for a person that never used it before. The main page can be adjusted to everyone's need.

Cons

The only thing that I do not like, is that when you look for an employee it doesn't load names similar to the once you are looking for. The filters in the inbox needs to be checked, they do not work properly.

### "Workday simplifies the way we manage employee information"

April 9, 2021

5.0

Centralization of employee information. We used to have to access different systems for different aspects of an employee porfile. Now everythiing is one place: - Payroll - Performance review - Employee vacation tracking - Job description and salary details

Pros

I can find everything related to my profile as an employee in one place. Whether it is information related to my salary, payroll, time off/vacation, job description. It's all managed in one application. Also, the yearly performance reviews and goals are more simple to enter and submit.

Cons

Some of the screens are not easy to use. The buttons are sometimes confusing. For example, submitting a request for vacation seems cumbersome as there are different buttons that seem to do the same thing displayed at the same time.

### "Workday"

July 13, 2022

4.0

Pros

Everything is in one place and with w-2, payslips, timesheets, and kore

Cons

The software is not very user friendly. It can be very hard to login and customer service is not helpful. You must login with verification and sometimes the verification text does not arrive for hours and by then the code has expired. It is also not user friendly and it is difficult to locate what you are looking for.

### "#1 Enterprise ATS In The World"

February 7, 2023

5.0

I was, and may soon be again, a Workday user. The software meets all of my needs as a Senior Recruiter. It is the most critical tool that I have for managing the recruitment process for my clients.

Pros

It fosters a collaborative work environment where you can learn and grow. Workday is the most effective way to manage jobs, applicants and important issues.

Cons

I love the way that Workday is designed, as well as all of its functionality. There is nothing that I like least about the software.

### "Workday will make your day go more than okay! "

December 23, 2019

5.0

Workday I am so glad it is becoming a lot more common in the industry and I love the convenience that the product provides to the consumer. It expedites the process of applying to positions on a lot of major corporations' websites.

Pros

I love the fact that you can upload your file onto their platform and everything is already prefilled in for you with great accuracy. Yes, other sites do offer that same kind of service but I do notice when applying the file onto the form to prefill, most other sites aren't as good in entering data in the correct fields. The interface is easy to use as well and does not take a long time to load.

Cons

The only thing that I don't like about the product is the fact that depending on the carrier using the product, your account may or may not be saved. Which is no big deal, you just create another account for each consumer's page you are visiting and wish to register on.

### "Workday Lacks Intuition for Users "

November 24, 2023

4.0

Pros

From what I have observed, Workday makes it easy to send things back one step to the previous user if corrections, changes, or additional information is needed.

Cons

I don't find the columns or icons or layout to be user-friendly.

### "Workday is a pain for small vendors who want to be paid efficiently"

October 27, 2023

2.0

I am a "vendor" for several organizations that use WorkDay to pay independent contractors (and full-time staff, I presume). I was excited to have a central interface where I could follow payments from several clients. I have found that this interface is hard to navigate and raises more questions than answers.

Pros

Ability to see invoices and their scheduled payments from multiple clients in one place.

Cons

Lack of transparency and lack of ability to see all invoices that have been submitted. For example, I have submitted multiple invoices (around 8) for one client and can only see 4. It's difficult to match the ones that appear in Workday to my own invoices. It's not clear when the payment will be processed. Not sure if this was a Workday issue, but I had updated my address across all fields and checks kept being sent to my old address. It just seems like there are way more issues than one would expect using a software like this, and it's awful to have to rely on such an unreliable system to get paid.

### "Workday HCM - une solution de gestion des ressources humaines moderne"

February 17, 2023

5.0

Dans l'ensemble, mon expérience avec Workday HCM a été positive. La plateforme offre une large gamme de fonctionnalités pour la gestion des ressources humaines et est facile à utiliser. Les outils de reporting et d'analyse sont également très performants, ce qui facilite la prise de décisions basées sur les données. Cependant, la mise en place initiale peut prendre du temps et le coût peut être un facteur limitant pour certaines entreprises. De plus, le support client peut être parfois lent à répondre, ce qui peut être frustrant en cas de problèmes urgents.

Pros

\- Interface utilisateur intuitive et moderne- Fonctionnalités avancées de gestion des talents, notamment le recrutement, la formation et le développement des compétences, ainsi que la gestion de la performance- Outils de reporting et d'analyse de données performants- Facilité d'intégration avec d'autres systèmes de gestion, tels que la paie et les avantages sociaux- Accessible via une application mobile

Cons

\- Le coût de la licence peut être élevé pour certaines entreprises- La configuration et la mise en place du système peuvent prendre du temps- Le support client peut être parfois lent à répondre

### "Good Employee Lifestyle Management"

January 14, 2023

4.0

Pros

The process workflow from automatic assignment to asignee to completion is really effective and efficient. Our majority of payroll and leave/absence management is done via Workday. The approval chain is easy and quick to follow!

Cons

The UI is very old school! While modern applications are taking the intuitive route, Workday is still in the ERP design era. Maybe a little more flexibility and better UI screen/controls could add some more magic.

### "Keep Track of your Time and Money."

July 26, 2022

5.0

Overall, the software is really easy to use. I am on it daily to add my hours and check my paystubs. I can easily update my direct deposit and personal information as well.

Pros

The company I work for uses Workday to time keeping, payroll, and paperwork. each day I input my hours that I worked. It totals it up so I can easily see what I worked each day. When it is payday I can log in to see my paychecks and print them out if I need to.

Cons

I do not find any issues with the software. I am able to input my schedule each day. It is easy to make adjustments if I need to. The only downside is I do not see my paycheck information until payday. It would be nice to see it before so I have an idea of what I am getting.
