Pending pay and retroactive pay are the most valuable features. When you use all fields, they should appear on one page.

What is most valuable?

Pending pay and retroactive pay are the most valuable features.

How has it helped my organization?

  • Less manual entry

What needs improvement?

Time management and the screen showing punches

Not showing on the same page when you use all fields, even when you down size your screen

The only way to see all the fields is by making the screen smaller and it is not readable. We change depts., jobs, projects , HR depts. and Activity.

It can be difficult for the managers and I when we try to correct or just check time. There are frequent errors due to this issue.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used it since November 2016.

What was my experience with deployment of the solution?

We encountered many deployment issues. Our implementation team had no idea about healthcare and its complexity; would have been nice to have a team that understood healthcare.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We did not encounter any stability issues.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We did encounter some scalability issues with the setup of our home healthcare.

How are customer service and technical support?

Customer Service:

The implementation team was less than desirable.

Customer services for cases has been awesome!

Technical Support:

Technical support is 8/10.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

There was too much manual entry in the old system, and the HR and payroll systems were different.

How was the initial setup?

Initial setup was complex because the team we have did not have healthcare experience.

What about the implementation team?

An in-house team implemented it. I would not rate them even a one out of 10.

What was our ROI?

Determining ROI is not part of my job description.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Before choosing this product, we also evaluated Kronos.

What other advice do I have?

Make sure your implementation team has experience with the industry they are setting up.

The platform configuration and workflow features are valuable. Effective date should be available in audit for all transactions.

We did not really encounter scalability issues.

How are customer service and technical support?

The system administration and ESS features are valuable.

What is most valuable?

  • System administration
  • BI reporting
  • Onboarding
  • ESS

How has it helped my organization?

At my current organization, we are just starting our implementation project. At my past companies, UltiPro has improved service delivery to employees, streamlined processes, improved efficiencies, and given time back to employees.

What needs improvement?

Global employee management features are limited. I would love to see the ability to add tables to store increments for supplemental life when using the age-graded rates setup.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used it for eight years.

What was my experience with deployment of the solution?

Implementation in 2009-2010 was a bit bumpy due to changes with the UltiPro project team.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

System stability is generally good and issues are typically addressed quickly.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have not encountered any scalability issues up to this point.

How is customer service and technical support?

Customer Service:

Customer service is generally very good. Response times can be slower during peak times (i.e., open enrollment, year-end, etc.).

Technical Support:

Technical support is very good.

What about the implementation team?

An in-house team implemented it.

Hi Jeff, thank you for providing us with feedback. We're thrilled to hear UltiPro has improved service delivery to employees, streamlined processes, improved efficiencies, and given time back to employees at your former organizations.

I am looking forward to the new workflows.

What is most valuable?

We are a new customer, still implementing. The implementing staff has been very friendly.

How has it helped my organization?

I am looking forward to the new workflows.

What needs improvement?

More explanations on the required spreadsheets for implementation; explanation of each field in the spreadsheet.

We are still in the implementation stages.  There are several spreadsheets that we use to upload info into ACT.  When we are having our info calls, they touch base on each of the columns and give examples of what that column represents or what you are looking for in this column.  But, when we go to enter this info in, it become a foreign language and we are left feeling frustrated.  We have to skip those columns and ask again what they are for.   It would be nice if when we go to fill out these fields that we could hover over the column header and read a description what you are wanting in that column.    Also, if 85% of your clients come from ADP, why not have a more customized spreadsheet for ADP rather than a generic spreadsheet?   We were discussing Data conversion and some of the columns came over on the ADP dump and some didn’t.  Making a spreadsheet for ADP would give you the option of saying at the top of the column that this comes over from ADP data conversion and not needed unless you want to change that info.  Honestly, why isn’t it assumed that everything in your current system is accurate?  I just adds confusion to the data conversion saying you can add this field and change it if it’s not accurate in your current system.

For how long have I used the solution?

We are not using it yet, July 1.

What was my experience with deployment of the solution?

We are still deploying it.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used an older version of ADP.

How was the initial setup?

Initial setup feels complex at the moment.

What about the implementation team?

An in-house team is implementing it.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Before choosing this product, we did some demos.
