### "Look Elsewhere"

September 22, 2020

3.0

there are better systems out there that are easier to learn and easier to work with.

Pros

The HR Database area is compiled well and onboarding is relatively easy once a candidate has been hired. Can be a little difficult getting into the system for some reason but once in you are gold. I have clients who use Workday and require us to submit candidates via the system.

Cons

More cons that pros, I'm afraid. The training was long, extensive and confusing. Nothing really seemed easy. You pay $ for everything....an email, a submission, etc. I think it's a very expensive product. Also, you don't see candidates from other recruiters, therefore, you don't know if your candidate has been previously submitted.

They offered great guides and trainings on their product. I was impressed with the amount of care and work the representative put in.

Pros

Super easy to use, organized, and user friendly!

### "Workday is one of the easiest and most user friendly human capital managements software."

November 7, 2017

5.0

Pros

It's very intuitive to use. A lot of human capital management softwares are not that easy to use. This one is very to the point and you can find things easily. It takes the guessing game out of the picture

Cons

There are a lot of clicks involved to get to certain places. It might not be that easy to use for someone who isn't technically savvy. If that's the case, having a simple walk through with a coworker on how to use it would be sufficient enough.

### "Workday - Efficient"

April 12, 2020

5.0

It took my a couple of months, but after that I really began to love Workday. I really like how you can track so much HR related information in one place. It makes my life efficient.

Pros

The biggest pro of Workday is how options that are available to front line managers like me. It stores everything from Performance Documents, time off information, and salary guidelines all in one place.

Cons

I still struggle with finding the most effective reports to use. There are so many reports available to the managers that it takes time to figure out what reports are best for you.

### "One Stop Shop"

July 20, 2023

4.0

Pros

I like as a user, how it's a one-stop-shop to manage my benefit selections, see my employee data, paystubs, and request time off.

Cons

Speed. I find I am waiting a lot on Workday when I put in a request for things, such as to open a particular pay stub.

My experince has been great after I started to get the grasp of it

Pros

Workday Payroll have everything in one site . You can find HR related stuffs, enter work day time and so on in one site

Cons

It will take some time for the first time users as there is lack of manual. Most of the functionality of workday is hidden.

### "Nice Interface, Easy to Use App...Wish there was more info displayed sometimes."

October 5, 2021

4.0

Pros

Easy to find what you are looking for, data is displayed in an easy to read way, also easy to clock-in/out.

Cons

There are some instances where I wish it didn't look as sleek and instead displayed more info in the app. You have to separately download paystubs to see all of your pay info, for instance, so you can't stay in the same app/window for that.

### "Great all-in-one HR tool"

March 28, 2018

5.0

Pros

\- Very clean and easy to navigate UI, there are topics depending on what information you might be looking for - Easy to log and track hours worked and view paychecks - Easy to track and request time off - Can review company org structure easily - Can easily view information on your pay, time with the company, bonus information, and tax info.

Cons

Even though the UI is clean, there's some instances where I'll be trying to find a certain page, form, or piece of information and it isn't in an intuitive spot so you can waste alot of time trying to find one thing. I also dislike how sometimes when I submit a form and realize I made an error I can't go back and edit it.

### "Workday Has Everything!"

August 11, 2018

4.0

Pros

The best thing about Workday, is that is combines all of the necessary HR functions of a company, along with the ability to input Organization Team Workflows for the ease of viewing. They also offer a smartphone app that allows you to access some of your organizations HR functions on the go.

Cons

The smartphone app is a little buggy at times, and sometimes you get stuck in a screen you can't get out of without ending the app and re-entering.

### "Ease of Use"

May 7, 2019

5.0

Pros

Recruiting through Workday is one of the easier systems I've used. The best thing about Workday Recruiting is that you can't mess up. If you haven't put something in correctly it won't let you move forward and/or it will give you an explanation as to what's wrong or incorrect prior to allowing you to submit it. The candidates that apply are all in one section and you can easily move them forward in the process.

Cons

It's a little time consuming at first to adjust to a new software, and there are different parameters than the other system we used in the past. Once you get through the learning curve though it's just fine.

### "Excellent product to use for HCM, if the appropriate support model is in place for your organization."

March 5, 2017

4.0

Inadequate training, lack of internal SME resources, and an absence of a true guided vision/direction by leadership will result in an expensive and poorly received system. As such, an organization will be reliant on implementation partners or independents as consultants, supporting or re-implementing a failed system, which will be even more expensive.

Pros

Workday is leading edge technology and highly configurable.The UI is best in class. Integrations with most 3rd party systems are easy to configure and the delivered packaged integrations are superb.

Cons

An organization needs to ensure proper internal support for the system to function smoothly. Training and user adoption/communication is also key for acceptance. An organization must have the SME talent in-house to be successful.

Very pleased with the whole system.

Pros

It is Easy and Convenient as the menu is designed in a very user friendly and practical way. It gives you all the details you are looking for up to real time. It runs fast and accessibility is easy. Saves much time for Time Off application, checking your hours, documents, pay stubs and more.

Cons

Some features are accessible only through a Computer and cannot be accessed by cell phone like the Benefits.

### "Workday Hooray"

July 6, 2023

5.0

I think it's a great platform for managing all the "HR" stuff.

Pros

I like a central location where I can access all my important information: Pay, Benefits, Policies, Procedures, Reviews, etc etc.

Cons

It's a little tricky navigating and it seems like there are different levels of access. I'd like to personalize a little more if possible.
