A good payroll management system for keeping track

Reviewed on 2022/08/04

Pros

Time off and salary slip management was good.
The options are laid out in a format so that you can easily find them. Upon guidance from the manager, i was able to fill in my timesheet, and put my leaves without much hassle

Cons

At times there was a delay in loading the data or the internal site

Overall an ok app, it serves it's purpose but it can be difficult to navigate for new users. I also occasionally experience slowdowns perhaps due to our company's large user base

Pros

Streamlined time tracking and easy access to pay slips

Cons

Unable to clock in or out from phone, not sure if it's an issue with the app or specific to my company. PTO requests can also be confusing to navigate as a new user.

Pros

Moving from Paylocity to Workday was a breath of fresh air. The platform is intuitive and engaging.

Cons

I did find running reports to be a bit of a challenge. If you don’t know the name of the report, it’s tough to search.

Workday is great and has all the feature we wished for

Reviewed on 2024/05/28

Pros

The best thing about Workday is that they provide great visibility over payroll, time management, absence balance and absence calendar for your teams—easy access to payslips and all the history. The recruitment dashboard is a great plus and has made our lives easier.
Another good thing about Workday is that it syncs with Expensify and Netsuite.

Cons

I have not come across any issues so far, so everything is good for me.

Workday is a Great Tool for HR Related Activity

Reviewed on 2024/10/20

Very satisfied with this software! Highly recommend it.

Very satisfied with this software! Highly recommend it.

Pros

I can say this is a great tool for an employee to see every HR-related activity and payroll on one website. Easy to navigate and easy to get used to utilizing the features in Workday - calendar, request PTO, and performance report submissions.
In addition, I'm positive that it forces me to change the password frequently. I'm not a person who regularly changes the password, so whenever I get the message from Workday, I realize it's time to change to keep my information safe - since this software has sensitive/personal/important information,

Cons

Even though it is easy to navigate, some features usually used need to go through several steps to find them. However, after getting used to it, I am sure it will be a fantastic tool to help you alot.

Pros

Approval workflow is robust and provides visibility to all process steps.

Cons

Even if you don't intend to leverage all aspects of a feature, customizing the system yo meet your specific needs requires building out the entire system.

I find it helpful on some days and annoying on others. It's a staple of major corporations but it's not as user oriented as it should be.

Pros

Workday is somewhat intuitive but often requires training and further research to figure it out.

Cons

Features in Workday like reviewing past activities and editing/going back to fix prior entries is not easy.

But overall it was great, easy and one of the best I heaved used. I would say I would continue using this for all my future business.

Pros

One of the best things for me while using this system as an administrator was being able to have a track on where all the employees time was being spend during the day and having the ability to work with time off request in a fast and easy way. Adjusting time for a big team can be a pain for just one person, but you can have different people assigned to different teams and have each team supervisor work with all related to their team.

Cons

The scheduling part of this can be a bit friendly user. I had a bit of trouble setting up schedule for each employee.

So this is the absolute greatest app when it comes to keeping track of your paystubs, hours worked, keeping your time off tracking, and to comp your time. And you can look at your hours you worked for the week and submit so if something not right you can get it fixed right then an there.

Cons

Only con i can say which its really not is if you dont submit your hours you dont get paid

The Organisation Chart feature which is incredibly user friendly. Our integration was well handled and communicated.

Cons

The ease of being able to quickly see how much leave you have remaining could be improved upon. At present, we are having to find this out as a year end balance which doesn't quite add up in total.

Great absence management system

Reviewed on 2023/01/04

Pros

Its clear nd easy to use : we can plan and request our days off, submit our request, and our manager receives a notification for approval. We can also correct absences when needed. The process is really simple and convenient.

Cons

Sometimes system correction doesn't work perfectly : the manager doesn't receive the notification. This is very rare and was apparently an issue with our internal set ups.It only happened once so overall very happy with my experience with Workday Absence management.
