Not able to carve a niche among its competitors there are other products available as well in the market such as hubstaff which are cabale im giving more than ceridian within the same cost. Hence, overall it is a good product fit for our use however could be improved if doesn't involves the cost factor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Having a system which services all our HR, payroll and performance management needs in one place. It means that we have one source of data, which helps us to manage our headcount and allows managers to view accurate data on their teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The LMS system is managed through a third party and we have experienced some challenges with the system, however, we can't fault the service we receive to manage the issues as they arise. We are still experiencing some problems with the annual leave entitlement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the user-friendly functionality of Dayforce. As a user I like being able to see my accrued vacation/PTO in realtime. I also like the ability to view and print my check stubs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As a user there are any areas of Dayforce that I necessarily dislike. It's simple and multifunctional. I was even able to print my W2 from the portal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The software is intuitive and pretty easy to use, especially for employees. For administrators, it really helps to manage the entire employee life cycle and all of the information you need is right at your fingertips. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If you have to do any type of development that requires interacting with "Professional Services" - add a new legal entity, create a file feed or interface, troubleshoot a custom report, etc - be prepared to have your time wasted. I have found this service to be slow, bureaucratic, inconsistent and just something I would like to avoid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it is easy to navigate and very organized in terms of putting all info together. Easy to navigate your calendar, pay period, holidays, position, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Most often, it's hard to log in, the code takes time to be sent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The talent modules (Recruiting, Onboarding, Performance, Compensation) are very easy to use and have the functions to meet our business needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Overall, the tool works well. However, there are some areas for improvement:
Security Design: Location Access is set at the user level instead of the role level, so that limits the control you have over what is displayed. The tool is setup with a retail-like setting in mind, so if you have multiple departments at one location, the Location Access approach does not really work.
Reporting: The Reporting tool is good, but we frequently have to go to Dayforce Support for help to get the coding just right. There is not a good delivered employee data change report, so this was a big issue for us. Additionally, report distribution is not very robust. For example, you can't send a report to a distribution group or email or shared drive. All of these would be very helpful improvements.
Workflows: These are surprisingly challenging to setup correctly, and many forms you would expect are not available or need customization. For example, the delivered bonus form will not route to the manager for approval and it displays the bonus on on the timesheet - not an ideal way for an employee to find out that they are getting a bonus. Getting a bonus form that routes for manager approval costs $2800 and even then it will not route directly to the payroll module for pay. It has to be manually entered by a payroll admin. Similarly, there can only be one workflow attached to an Internal Candidate Hire workflow so if you have a complex business approval process, you have a problem. Finally, you cannot add ad hoc approvers on a one off basis. We had this functionality in our old system and miss it. Oddly, the workflow in Recruiting is much better, so hopefully the people that designed that will fix HR.
We have logged lots of product enhancement suggestions, so hopefully over the next few years we will see improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Reporting feature. There are a lot of in-built/ ready-made reports that we can generate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is difficult to navigate through various tabs. Employment information tabs are particularly difficult to get the required information from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
