Centralized management, useful information storage, but can feel clunky
We have found value in Work.com because it gave us a central place for capturing any opportunities-related information, such as client-related information. Additionally, it is a place for storing this information. Anyone in the organization, if it was being updated actively by the people or by the sales team, could have access to it. Once the contact information is there about any client, then it stays there. If you are approaching a client, you are able to check if there's any history. It's a good tool, but it all depends on how disciplined the sales team is in entering the information regularly.

Automation has transformed hire to retire processes and delivers powerful HR analytics
In Workday Human Capital Management, I feel that the security part needs to be improved. Workday gives complete control to the implementers regarding security and who is going to see what data. There are sometimes loopholes that are not identified unless fully tested. If Workday had a security alert system, even a small alert would help the security architect secure all information better, especially sensitive data such as payroll. Additionally, customization is another area of improvement, as Workday provides a default blue and yellow theme, which may not align with a company's branding. If Workday provided the option to customize themes based on a company's preferences, it would enhance the user experience.

Pros

"We have found value in Work.com because it gave us a central place for capturing any opportunities-related information, such as client-related information. Additionally, it is a place for storing this information. Anyone in the organization, if it was being updated actively by the people or by the sales team, could have access to it.

It's a good tool, but it all depends on how disciplined the sales team is in entering the information regularly."
"We have found value in Work.com because it gave us a central place for capturing any opportunities-related information, such as client-related information."
"Performance management and goals are the most valuable features."
"Employees in our company recognize each other daily for their contributions."
"We use this solution to manage financials, payroll and recruiting."
"What I appreciate best about Workday is the recruiting component."
"The software is easy to learn and use. When compared to SAP HR and SAP HCM, the tool is easy to access and understand. We have a hierarchy and structural connectivity in Workday. There is a certification for the solution and when we do it, we become the certified partners of the company"
"Since adopting Workday, we have reduced HR administrative processing time by 45%."
"Provides flexibility to integrate with the product. It has several tools, out-of-the-box, for integrations. It delivers pre-built interfaces for specific vendors, pre-built generic integrations to extract or push data into Workday through configuration."
"The reports I can download with compensation details come in a very organized manner, and I can record any future payments through the software, such as deferred cash bonuses that need to be paid one year later."
"Workday is easy to use. Timesheet and resource management are also easy."
"The scalability is amazing."
 

Cons

"I found Work.com a bit clunky. There were too many fields, but maybe that was the design. It could be company-specific to me. There were overlapping fields and sometimes it was confusing."
"The UI needs to improve."
"The pricing is higher than what we would have preferred to spend."
"The implementation could have gone a little smoother."
"It's possible that the way things are integrated could be improved but if you've used SAP then Workday is actually pretty good."
"Currently, the product's payroll feature works only in four countries. It should work for more countries."
"The solution should enhance its flexibility and promptly incorporate the brainstormed ideas into the upcoming releases. Typically, after their brainstorming session, it takes one or two update cycles for the changes to reflect in the tenant."
"There are other enhancements that go untended that have been languishing for years."
"One area that could be improved with Workday is the analytics side."
"Payroll integration is terrible. It has a lot of limitations."
"Reporting systems should be improved. If you want to report it on paper, if you want something more BI oriented, more high level predictive or more data-driven, it should be improved."

"Workday is an expensive solution."
"The solution’s pricing is better than SAP SuccessFactors."
"You have the license fee per module, and then you have a kind of annual training fee, which is a kind of add-on. I wouldn't say it is exhaustive; it is minor. Licensing is pretty transparent for most of the part."
"I need to pay for a license. It is expensive."
"I would rate the solution’s pricing a six out of ten."
"It's very, very expensive."
"Its price is pretty high. It is more expensive than what is offered by other competitors in the market."
