### "Excellent Product"

April 6, 2021

5.0

An excellent solution to make all of those once tedious tasks much easier.

Pros

This product has made work in our HR space so much more streamlined. From talent management, to recruiting, to benefits and obviously, financial reporting internally. Budget keeping is no longer the massive chore it used to be.

Cons

Because Workday is a holistic solution for HR, there are minor limitations, but those hardly impact it's greater value.

### "Workday is not for every business"

September 18, 2018

3.0

My overall experience with Workday is sometimes frustrating since I cannot get the reports I need to do my job. I work with the filing of 1099s for all the vendors and it's impossible to run reports with the information I need in order to report accurately to the IRS.

Pros

Workday enables businesses to view all their financials in just a few clicks.

Cons

Usually when a report is exported to excel, it's hard to view since the columns contain information that are irrelevant and need to be hidden.

It is a good program suitable for high volume invoice processing.

Pros

I enjoy the responsiveness of the program, when changes are made to invoices, it is instantaneous.

Occasionally it can be hard to search for reports/tasks by name.

### "Workday does all things accounting"

July 28, 2021

5.0

We have had a great experience with the product. We've been able to retire our on-prem hardware and consume the product via the cloud. We've never experienced any downtime and advanced features are offered aplenty.

Pros

What we liked most about the product was the breadth of services available. The interface is easy to navigate and documentation is easy to understand and follow. We are able to manage our accounts payable with ease with Workday!

Cons

There isn't much negative to say about the product but if I had to nitpick I would say that the interface could be snappier. There are some functions which require multiple mouse clicks to access a report which should be easier.

### "a powerful but complicated tool to use"

June 27, 2021

4.0

It helps us to know and share the accounting figures of some additional areas. it is functional for us to make presentations or dashboards.

Pros

it is a financial control and management tool. I think it can be good for small businesses with few processes to report or very simple accounting.

Cons

Capturing accounting operations are very complicated because we have not yet found a way to automate them to the tool. This is because our company is very large. However you can use it as a reporting tool.

Pros

Workday does an amazing job with a great interface allowing the user to easily learn the system while not sacrificing the work being done. Easy, affordable, maintainable.

Cons

Requestion procedures a little of a task, but manageable.

### "A powerful tool with a terrible UI"

March 2, 2021

4.0

Employees will accept having to use Workday to manage their taxes, etc. I'm not aware of an alternative for large companies. It will, however, be a perpetual pain point for employees.

Pros

Workday is used by large companies for a reason - companies with employees throughout the US or even internationally can gain immense value from Workday. It takes a lot of the legwork out of managing financials with large numbers of employees for the company.

Cons

The user interface for actual employees leaves a lot to be desired. Performing even simple tasks can take multiple minutes of digging through menus.

### "Workday Review"

November 14, 2018

5.0

Overall I am happy with my experience using Workday. I love being able to go to one place for all my HR needs.

Pros

I love how Workday is my company's one stop shop for all things HR. It's easy to be able to log in and have all the important things in one place. We do our annual reviews here, our employee information is tracked here, and our training services are done through here. Prior to Workday, we used many different platforms - now we just have this one.

Cons

I find the platform can be slow, and the user interface is not very compatible with Internet Explorer.

### "It is a little bit difficult to use at the beginning. "

February 8, 2018

4.0

Pros

It has a very simple interface. Reports and features can get customized by ITS on demand. There is an app you can use on your phone with all the working features.

Cons

It contains no tools for project management other than the accounting of available budget, obligations and actuals. Some terms do not reflect the correct accounting, finance, and projext management industries.

### "Simple product"

November 19, 2019

5.0

Great tracking tool for a business that has multiple roles/jobs that are salaries, hourly, and contracted.

Pros

Easy to use and simple product. Does the necessary work and training isn’t necessary bc tool is intuitive.

Cons

Doesn’t have bells and whistles and doesn’t make sense to add on because of the support you get from the basic package.

November 27, 2018

5.0

Pros

everything is in one place - time off; evaluations; goals; job openings. I love one-stop shops

Cons

Never had figured out how to get rid of certain items or delete them specifically in the job interest. I have them lingering on the side but would like to delete. Can't figure it out :-)

### "Workday Review"

May 23, 2019

5.0

Overall my experience with this software has been good. Has come in very handy at my new job.

Pros

I like the fact that it keeps records of my w2 and other information after I had stopped working at a previous job for a year.

Cons

I was locked out once and having to verify my identity to be able to reset my password was a bit of a pain but that was the only thing I was not fond of.

### "Very resourceful HR and finance management software"

July 29, 2021

4.0

Overall, it's good software but can be much better if they work on some of the cons I mentioned.

Pros

The payslip management is very helpful. Taking a look at all of your paycheck structure and absence in easy-to-navigate panes is a good feature.

Cons

The initial learning curve can be tricky. The second thing I find annoying is unplanned maintenance without advanced notice makes it tough when you have some last-minute things to finish over the weekend.

Well it helps me get my payslip even faster than waiting in line it helps me request time off if I want to so when it comes to flexibility this is the right app for work and software

Pros

I like this software because it shows me my payslips my schedules my time off pretty much everything I need from work

Cons

The only thing I cannot do on the app is set up my health insurance with the company I work for but other than that I can do pretty much anything through the software in the app

We currently have Workday HCM and it integrates seamlessly with their other product which saves our financial department tons of time.

Implementation of the software took a better part of the year and needed a third party to help setup the system.
