Workday Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Tool Reviews

“Easy daily tasks without trouble”

Pros

Workday is really easy to use and I never have trouble signing in or carrying out tasks inside the platform during my daily use.

Cons

I haven't encountered any problems with Workday HCM and I am not having any trouble using it right now. everything runs smoothly. Thank you!

“Perfect for me”

Pros

Feels super user friendly and I haven't run into any login problems or workflow issues while using the system.

Cons

No complaints here... It has been working smoothly for me so far. Thanks!

“No glitches at reasonable price”

Pros

Using it has been a breeze and I have never run into problems as no crashes or glitches like I have seen with other programs. It's also reasonably priced. After years of using Workday's offerings, this ranks among my go-to HR tools and one of my top favorites.

Cons

What bothers me is that if I need to change the worker type on a requisition, there isn't a way to edit it directly so I have to basically exit the whole process and start a brand-new requisition from scratch which is annoying.

“Reliable tool”

Pros

Using it has been easy, nothing has gone wrong for me and it has never frozen or acted buggy the way other software sometimes does. Pricing is also reasonable, not overly expensive. Since I've worked with its products for years, it's quickly become one of my favorite HR tools.

Cons

One thing I wish were different, you can't change the requisition worker type without backing out and essentially creating a brand new requisition.

“Better than workforce management alternative”

Pros

In my experience it performs noticeably better than other solutions I have tried in the past. most recently I used WorkForce Management and I found that product to be pretty unfriendly and hard to use.

Cons

The interface can feel clunky and it often seems crowded with too many separate apps. Editing employee hours and approving time could be made much more user friendly.

“stronger than past workforce tools”

Pros

It's been performing better than other products I've tried previously. The most recent comparison point was WorkForce Management which felt pretty unfriendly to use.

Cons

Interface gets dated now and then and it can feel crowded with too many different app components. Editing employee times and approving hours also needs to be more direct and organized.

“Pay and time-off in one”

Pros

What I like most about Workday is having pay, time-off details and the reporting hierarchy all managed and visible in a single place.

Cons

I like least that the notifications and 'tasks features need improvement. several alerts stay around and are stubbornly difficult to dismiss or clear away.

“all-in-one pay”

Pros

Biggest win for me is being able to handle and view my pay details, time off and reporting structure from a single dashboard.

Cons

What bothers me is the notifications and "tasks" feature some of them stick around and it's kind of hard to dismiss them completely.

“Real-time insights with easy dashboards”

Pros

The interface is very user-friendly and well-connected. Also it's simple to operate and provides real-time insights, reports and dashboards that are easy to customize.

Cons

However with so many built-in standard reports, I am often unsure which one to pick for a given situation. despite its self-service focus, I still need guidance.

“connected UI with real-time dashboards”

Pros

The app feels user friendly, with a connected UI that makes navigation simple. It also delivers real time insights, along with reports and dashboards that are simple to customise based on what you need.

Cons

There are quite a lot of standard reports so it's not always obvious which one to use at specific times. Since it's designed for self service, it would still help to have some guidance or recommendations built in.

“Thorough payment details for updates”

Pros

For me the tool provides thorough details about payment info, benefits, the job hub and other key items that I need to check regularly during the week for updates to employees account information.

Cons

Occasionally I have trouble getting clear, timely updates on pending application statuses and I also cannot always find detailed information about the pay ranges for jobs once they are posted.

“Great time management”

Pros

Good one! Its app provides solid, detailed information around payment information, employee benefits, the job hub and other key sections that are worth checking consistently throughout the week when reviewing updates on an employee's account details.

Cons

Occasionally it struggles to reflect updates for pending application status and job postings don't always show the pay range details in time or accurately.

“Easy navigation with simple reports”

Pros

Workday interface is very easy to navigate. Overall it's simple to use and building reports is mostly easy.

Cons

For me working with calculated fields is a real headache. I also have to figure out which data source matches each field and security settings can become overly complex at times.

“Handles work well”

Pros

Feels very user friendly and most of the reporting workflow is simple. Bp also makes it possible to customize things further, including creating more customizable BOS options.

Cons

Calculated fields take some getting used to, figuring out which data source goes with which field isn't always obvious at first. Security can also get pretty complicated at times.

“User-friendly and feature rich”

Pros

I am impressed by how user-friendly and accessible it is for staff. I like exploring the variety of features and seeing the many ways they can be presented to our team members.

Cons

Personally, I don't run into many problems with Workday but I find that rolling out new features can take a while and is often confusing to figure out.

“great employee-friendly software”

Pros

So accessible and simple for employees to use. I also enjoy exploring the different features and seeing how they can be set up and displayed for our team.

Cons

Didnt come across many problems with it. The only recurring hiccup is that rolling out new features can take time and it isn't always immediately clear how to get everything configured.

“Easy to use with strong security”

Pros

The software is easy to use, I appreciate the strong security features, I have had no problems and its usability is excellent

Cons

I cannot think of anything I dislike about it As for me it's easy to navigate and works well for everyone.

“secure and user friendly software”

Pros

This tool is really simple software to use and the security features are excellent. I've gone through regular day to day use with no problems at all and the overall ease of use feels fantastic.

Cons

Not much I can complain about. Navigation is simple enough for everyone on the team and it fits well into how we work.

“Simple benefit elections with cost view”

Pros

I really like being able to complete my benefit elections online during open enrollment. The process is simple and I can quickly go through my choices. What I particularly like is that the main page shows the current monthly cost of my benefits. Adding dependents or beneficiaries and updating details is also easy.

Cons

At the moment I don't have any complaints to report. I haven't experienced any problems with the software. It's generally easy to use and pretty user-friendly. If I ever run into something I don't understand, I just call my HR team and they patiently walk me through what I need to do.

“pretty decent tool”

Pros

With this system I can kick off recruitment through HCM, gather and screen applicants, run interviews, make hires and give employees their own self-service portal.

Cons

I find that I cannot configure organization-specific customizable features and options. Workday handles basic processes well but when it's about our policies and regulatory needs, certain features cannot be implemented which forces me and my team to finish some processes manually.
