What do you like best about Workday HCM?

I've used multiple which HCMs as an administrator and my expereince with Workdays HCM has been so far the best. Workday HCM is easy to configure, you don't need any experience of coding language.

You can tailor your workflows as per the need of the business Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday HCM?

The cost is high for a small organization.

The reporting tool is quite powerful but not as user friendly as Tablue or Power BI. The visuals are aslo basic sompared to other tools. It also takes time for it to process large data sets compared to Tablue of Power BI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you?

Workday really helps in managing multiple comanies data. It helps us manage data in bulk for all these companies.

We can create seperate workflows for each company/country which is very helpful.

Managing absence is very easy and we've also integrated it with Slack, which helps employees submit their leaves from their slack app.

Self-service is very user friendly as an employee can view their paysliip, request time offs and approve employee changes from you Mobile app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Workday HCM?

I've found Workday to be a reliable application for handling holiday and HR activities at my company. Its user-friendly interface makes requesting leave and checking balances easy and efficient. Real-time updates ensure I always know my leave status without chasing paperwork. I appreciate the integration with other HR functions, which provides a central hub for important information. While there can be some lag during busy times, overall, Workday simplifies holiday management and enhances transparency for both employees and HR teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday HCM?

Workday serves as a practical tool for managing holiday requests and HR activities, but it’s not without its drawbacks. The interface is generally intuitive, allowing for easy navigation when requesting leave or checking balances. However, the application can become sluggish during peak times, which can be frustrating if you're trying to get things done quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Workday?

It's a SaaS tool that is well integrated into modern toolchains (e.g., Slack). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday?

After working with the tool for more than two years, I still struggle to navigate to what I'm looking for. The structure and usability do not support me in getting my things done. Without the shortcuts I've saved after finding the most essential features, I would be lost.

In general, Workday's usability is lacking compared to other tools. For example, why do I have to select each day when planning an absence? Selecting a rand by picking the first and last day would be more convenient. There are multiple of these little things that make Workday challenging to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday solving and how is that benefiting you?

Workday is rather causing problems than helping to solve them. Please make the every day tasks easier to accomplish with less clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
