Best HR tool a company can use

5.0 3 years ago

Pros:

My favorite aspect of Workday is the User Interface. The software is very easy to navigate for any user, and requires almost no training. I also love the personnel reports I can pull through Workday with our HRIS specialist.

Cons:

The Workday implementation took a long time. It took months before the Workday team could implement this software for us to go live.

Can handle multinational payouts and offers customized benefits packages.

Comments: A cool thing about Workday HCM is that you can sign up for free and play around with the tool, not being charged until you pay first team member.

Pros:

Dedicated local Workday HCM experts ensures comprehensive and tailored assistance. It also integrates seamlessly with popular software tools platforms making work easier and enjoyable. Automated invoicing streamlines financial tasks, saving time and energy on such tasks. It is also a perfect solution for remote and global teams.

Cons:

We find Workday HCM to be user-friendly and intuitive to navigate on the employee and manager side alike. However, additional charges apply for specific advanced features such as onboarding automation.

I’d recommend Workday

3.0 last month New

Comments: Overall it’s a fantastic tool for organizations, if they know how to configure it correctly. Each country is different and the system allows you to customize processes based on locations.

Pros:

Having all your HR related tasks in one system (time tracking, vacation tracing, performance, learning, employee files, payroll, etc) make it a one stop system for companies.

Cons:

The security access groups can make it challenging to understand where actions may be stuck. The rules make it challenging to make changes.

HR system at its best

5.0 last month New

Comments: I love it because of the flexibility and ease at which you can navigate to the different parts of the app

Pros:

It is very friendly and easy to use. It can even link you to other sites if the HR defines them. Its like a quick link to those other platforms. The amount of data stored on workday is huge for each staff. I can see my payroll so easily on workday HCM

Cons:

I am not sure it is okay to see the salary of people working under you but workday allows this.
