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. Workday has a user friendly interface compared to other HCMs. For the end user's (managers) it is easy for them to manage their team and manage their time tracking.

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.

I've been using Workday for the past five years. The platform is very user-friendly, and there are a ton of features that Workday can offer. I currently use Workday for recruiting and HR functions. I also use it to review my personal details, including time off and payroll. Workday sends great communication from customer support when there are platform issues and they send updates when the issues are corrected. I haven't been on the implementation side but others in my company have and say it's easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Workday solves the problem of having to use multiple platforms without a business. We only use Workday and it allows us to be profecient and experts in Workday. 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.

What do you like best about Workday Financial Management?

What I like best about Workday Financial Management is its intuitive and user-friendly interface. It seamlessly integrates various financial processes into one platform, making tasks like budgeting, reporting, and accounting more efficient. The real-time data and analytics provide valuable insights, helping to make informed decisions quickly. Plus, the flexibility and scalability of the system allow it to adapt to changing business needs, which is crucial for long-term growth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday Financial Management?

One thing I dislike about Workday Financial Management is the complexity of its initial setup and configuration. While the platform is powerful and comprehensive, getting everything customized to fit specific business needs can be time-consuming and requires a good deal of expertise. Additionally, the learning curve for new users can be steep, especially for those unfamiliar with the system, which might slow down the onboarding process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Workday Financial Management is solving the problem of disjointed and inefficient financial processes by bringing everything into a single, integrated platform. This helps streamline tasks like financial reporting, budgeting, and accounting, which used to be time-consuming and prone to errors when handled across multiple systems. By having real-time access to financial data and insights, I can make more informed decisions quickly, which improves overall financial management and planning. The automation of routine tasks also reduces the workload, freeing up time to focus on more strategic activities. Overall, it's making my job easier and more efficient.
