CS
HR MANAGER at a financial services firm with 501-1,000 employees
Allows us to connect with, take care of, and nurture possible employees
The video function could be improved. Now that we do a lot of digital interviews, you can actually have your own video function. Still, I would prefer if it were more of a team function where you could change the background, for example. With everyone currently working from home offices due to lockdowns, some of the backgrounds look quite unprofessional. It would be nice if we could have our own unique background — for branding purposes during interviews. When we schedule an interview, in the message function, you can create a placeholder using a name, etc. I would like to have more generic placeholders and for them to be included in the message function when you schedule the interview.
Streamlined time tracking boosts operational efficiency across multiple regions
The time tracking feature is the most effective for employee management. UKG is used in Europe, the United States, Australia, and East Asian countries for HR activities like payroll. The application is like an ERP, providing comprehensive features for organizations, simplifying their processes, and reducing the need to use multiple software solutions.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"From my experience, there's no better system currently on the market."
"It's just an easy solution to connect with."
"Payroll is reliable."
"Ultimate is cute and fun."
"We've definitely realized ROI on the module."
"The pay policies and approvals are valuable features."
"I have found UTM and the Payroll Gateway to be fairly easy to use."
"The attention paid to what customers want in product services."
"UltiPro is far and away the leader in SaaS products, especially when a $1M solution is not appropriate."
"I am learning new aspects of the program every week and as new modules open I look forward to what this program will do for our business!"
 

Cons

"The video function could be improved. It would be nice if we could have our own unique background — for branding purposes during interviews."
"The video function could be improved."
"Benefit administration is probably the weakest part of the system."
"The tax corrections are a bit burdensome; you have to void and reissue payments."
"Customer service is awful. Technical support is awful."
"Payment services continues to be our biggest area of concern."
"One area where UKG could improve is in its ability to understand its own competency and then work hard to improve it."
"Customer service is 5/10. Technical support is 5/10."
"I wish UltiPro had the functionality as an administrator to view a user's screen or what they are viewing when trying to help troubleshoot if the user is not onsite."
"Implementation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay a fixed amount that includes support. I think it's a very good deal actually."
"While I am unsure of the licensing cost itself, the total cost of implementation and licensing for a company with over 5000 employees would be around 6,00,000. So, there are additional costs beyond licensing."
"The platform is not affordable but also not the most expensive."
"I wasn't involved in the pricing part. I'm a user, and I believe it is based on the user count. One thing that is nice about Ultimate is that you can learn how to use the system without additional fees. The learning aspect is the life of a product, and the training was a huge reason why we went with Ultimate. We did have some integration costs. They were a part of the implementation because of the integrations to other systems that we included in our implementation."
"If you're going for the full suite, it can be fairly pricey."
"The pricing depends on the number of licenses we buy."
"UKG's pricing and licensing model involves ongoing expenses based on the number of employees paid. The initial implementation cost is low when UKG implements it directly. However, when partners handle the implementation, it becomes more expensive since partners don't receive the monthly recurring fees."
