Reviews of Workday HCM

Increase HR and payroll compliance and daily efficiency
Comments: Post-sandbox testing, Workday can update and release software. This sandbox environment allows me to try things out, observe what happens, and then fine-tune my procedures. Many issues are resolved because to Workday's ability to notify workers of pending tasks and make information about those tasks readily available to them.
Pros:
If you're familiar with the system and its customizations, you should be able to accomplish just about anything using Workday. I really like how workday can be used to both investigate past company procedures and improve current ones. After years of using ADP, I have concluded that Workday is the superior HR software.
Cons:
In my opinion, the time it takes to find and interview potential candidates is too long. While Workday's learning resources are excellent, I do wish they provided more configuration-specific instruction.
WORKDAY REVIEW
Comments: CAN VIEW MY HOURS, PAYCHECKS... CAN VIEW MY PERSONNAL INFORMATION.IT KEEPS A RECORD OF YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS, CERTICIFATIONS AND REIMBURSEMENTS.
Pros:
VERY EASY TO USE. USE FOR MULTIPLE THINGS
Cons:
NOTHING REALLY. IT CAN BE USED FOR ANYTHING

I’d recommend Workday
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.
Seamless experience for the employee
Comments: It seems like a tool that allows a lot of integrations which allows for efficiencies and gives the feeling of just one comprehensive tool for everything HR. And one can use it on the go through the app
Pros:
I have only recently started using Workday, but it seems like a good tool that allows many integrations and therefore the feeling for the end user is that it is a comprehensive tool. Beyond the standard HR information one might need (salary, time off, etc.), my skills profile (from the recruitment stage) is integrated with the skill-building systems (courses, etc.) and the mentoring platform of the company. Another couple of feature I found useful (especially as a new starter) were the admin assistance chat, also integrated within the platform and the org chart. Logging in is made easy and they offer an app.
Cons:
Nothing major negative to report at this stage.
Easy to use solution with infinite possibilities for payrolls.
Comments: Accurate and timely payrolls with unique and futuristic dashboard for the task.
Pros:
Easiest payroll ever used. Workday HCM is competitively priced which makes it perfect. Already working on my next projects with this software.
Cons:
Moderately ranked software with every features required for a successful payroll journey.
Perfect choice for any employer
Pros:
Easy to use pay management system. I have only used in a user capacity, however I have never had any issues.

I would like to see more pay monitoring tools as well as better scheduling tools.

Pros:
With Workday HCM, handling human capital management has been easy. From recruitment to managing talents to organizing staff, this tool offers great features.

Powerful and Scalable, but Complex and Costly
Comments: robust, comprehensive platform for managing HR processes, from payroll to talent management. Its user-friendly interface and real-time analytics make it efficient for HR teams, while the self-service features empower employees and managers. However, the system can be complex to navigate initially, and customization may require significant time and resources. While it’s a scalable solution for large organizations, its cost and implementation time can be challenging, particularly for smaller companies. Despite these challenges, its integration capabilities, global reach, and security features make it a strong choice for businesses with complex HR needs.
Pros:
Workday HCM is praised for its user-friendly interface, comprehensive functionality (covering HR, payroll, talent management), and real-time analytics for data-driven decisions. It offers global capabilities, making it ideal for multinational organizations, and self-service features that empower employees and managers. The system is cloud-based, ensuring easy access and automatic updates, and supports customization to fit unique business needs. With strong security, integration capabilities, and robust support, Workday is a scalable and flexible solution for modern HR management.
Cons:
complexity for new users, requiring extensive training, and time-consuming customization. It can be expensive, with high licensing and implementation costs, and has limited reporting flexibility. Large organizations may experience performance issues, and integration setup can be challenging. The mobile app is less intuitive, and long implementation times can delay deployment.

Workday review
Pros:
Workday HCM excels in providing a comprehensive and user-friendly interface for managing human resources and talent. Its robust analytics and reporting features offer valuable insights into workforce data, helping organizations make informed decisions.
Cons:
One of the main drawbacks of Workday HCM is its high cost, which can be prohibitive for smaller organizations. Additionally, the system can be complex to configure and customize, requiring significant training for users.
Not the finest-looking website, but it definitely does the job
Comments: Largely positive, I can't really complain as the website does ultimately offer me everything I need
Pros:
The website incorporates aspects such as pay, reviews, meetings/discussions, all personal historic job documentation, and absence. It's easy to use and I can quickly see when my teammates are planning annual leave, review my pay situation and so on.
Cons:
The website feels a bit dated aesthetically, and is sometimes a bit clunky when it comes to pages regarding absence/annual leave - it feels like there are multiple ways to see the same end result.
