Workday Reviews

The primary use case for the product in our environment is to manage the entire employee lifecycle, from recruitment to retirement.

The product's most valuable features include its intuitive user interface, seamless integration with other systems like Microsoft Outlook for calendar management, and comprehensive reporting capabilities that provide insights into workforce analytics.

They could improve the product areas such as enhancing the interview scheduling module to support more flexible online assessments within the platform. Additionally, further integration with third-party applications could broaden its functionality.

I have been using Workday for approximately three years. 

The product is stable. 

The product is scalable. 

The technical support services are excellent.

Positive

We previously used Oracle Taleo for candidate tracking but switched to Workday due to Taleo's less intuitive workflow management.

The initial setup was complex due to the need for detailed configuration and integration with existing systems. 

We took help from a vendor team for product implementation. 

We evaluated SAP SuccessFactors and ADP Workforce Now. However, Workday stood out due to its superior user experience, robust feature set, and scalability.

Overall, the product has been instrumental in modernizing our HR operations. Its training resources help us keep up with updates and new features.

I rate it an eight out of ten.

We only used Workday for the APS or the time acquisition model. Only about 30 people used the solution at the bank. 

Workday is highly intuitive from a customer experience perspective. It was effortless for us to understand what to do even though we didn't have any related training. It was easy to use without guidance.

I'm not sure they have added this feature yet, but there should be a cellphone version, so we do not need to do it on a laptop. I'd like to log in on a cellphone and have the same features. I'm not sure if that is already available or if it's on the roadmap, but that would be a great feature.

We used Workday when I was working at a bank in my previous role. Currently, I am working at a a local airline in Mexico that doesn't have a CRM. I used Workday for about a year and a half. 

Workday is stable.

It was already deployed when I joined the company, but the people involved in the deployment process say it is scalable. 

I rate Workday support eight out of 10. I only required assistance from Workday a couple of times, but they responded promptly every time. 

Positive

Setting up Workday is straightforward.

I rate Workday eight out of 10. We did not require training to use Workday, but they provide a lot of supporting material that's useful to help everyone embrace the solution. In my experience, there are always some people who are hesitant to work with a solution like this. 

The materials are a good way to overcome because you can show them the benefits they would get by embracing this new way of working. Highlight some facts and data about the benefits they would get by implementing a solution like this.

We use the platform for tasks, including applying for leaves, communication, and adhering to our organization's policies through efficient goal setting and reviews.

The platform doesn't help me in decision-making as I have used it only for basic applications, including applying for leaves and managing calendars.

They could provide a web chatbot feature in the dashboard for Workday.

We have been using Workday for eight or nine years.

I rate the product's stability a seven or eight.

We have over 2000 employees in our organization using Workday.

The product can be deployed on the cloud.

I recommend Workday to others and rate it a seven out of ten.

Workday is easy to use. Timesheet and resource management are also easy.

The solution has to work a lot on financial integrations, material management and CRM modules. 

I have been working with the solution for three to four years. 

Workday is scalable, and we have 40,000 users for it. 

The tool's customer support is good. 

Positive

Workday has saved us time by at least 40 per cent. 

The tool is easy to maintain and requires around two to three people. Workday is flexible, but SAP and Oracle are better regarding integration with other products and stability. I rate it a nine out of ten. 

When I used to work on Workday, some of the info wasn't accurate, and I had to double-check via Sage People. The company that bought us wanted to use their own product. Their product was Workday, and our product was Sage People. They told us that Workday is like Sage People, but something didn't add up. I always used Sage People as a backup tool for Workday.

It was more efficient for the agents for their performance reviews, but when it came to HR and the recruitment team, it sometimes worked, and sometimes, it didn't work.

There were a lot of issues. There were consistency or accuracy issues with the data we had, and every time we had to pull reports in Workday, it was difficult. 

I've been using Workday since 2020. It has been around two years. I don't know the version that we had. All I know is that for HR, we've got access to everything, and employees have got access to their payslips, etc.

It was being used by the whole call center with more than 250 agents.

When a company bought us, we were still working on Sage People. That's how Workday came to us. If I could choose between Sage People and Workday, I'd go for Sage People. It's the best.

It's straightforward, but you need to know it in order to work on it. You need training on Workday.

To those considering using this solution, I'd advise doing a proper check. Pay attention and ask more questions.

I'd rate Workday a seven out of ten.

We install this solution for our customers to use, for capital management purposes.

We like the fact that this solution is very user-friendly, with a straightforward user interface.

We would like to see improvement in the mobile app variant of this solution. The  time sheet entry and approval, and the geo-tagging features all need to have their functionality updated, in order to be comparable with other products on the market.

We have been working with this solution for three years.

We have found this to be a stable solution during our time working with it.

We are informed bu our customers that it is an easily scalable solution.

The initial setup of this solution is very easy, and the deployment will take a maximum of one week to complete.

We would recommend this solution to organizations looking for a unifying product, as there is very little need for customization or development and it is easy to use from implementation.

We would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Our HR team use it to manage all employee information and processes. 

 It is easy to use and straightforward.

This solution could be made easier to use by continuing to release new improvements. 

I have been using this solution for six months. 

This is a stable solution. 

I have not needed to contact customer support. 

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten. 

We primarily use the solution for benefits administration and talent management. We can also manage HR and administration. We use the solution worldwide. 

It's for absence management. For platform and feedback management, both for myself and for my coaches. We use it for performance, in general, across the company. It's for onboarding. 

For example, I've been provided with monthly pay slips through Workday, I can have available all the pay slips and other information, personal information, such as certificates for tax and personal purposes. Everything is in Workday as far as personnel is concerned.

I like the usability and responsiveness of the application.

The interface is fine.

It's easy to set up.

It is stable.

It could be expensive, however, that is not something that is my concern as it is my company's concern, in terms of pricing. 

The user interface could be modernized somehow. 

Errors are not very clear in some cases. I've been experiencing some issues within the application that the error messages or what I needed to do were not very easily clear to me. I needed to contact an expert in order to facilitate the problem resolution.

Technical support could be better. 

I've been using the solution for two years. 

It's a very stable solution. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

We have about 1,000 users. 

It's a solution that can scale. 

While technical support could be better, it's improved. When I needed their support, it took me some days to resolve my issues. Probably it is not due to Workday's support. That said, in general, it is something that I expect to be improved.

It's very easy to set up. It's not overly complex or difficult. 

I'm not technical and did not handle the deployment and therefore cannot speak to how long it took or the exact process. It was a global rollout. It may have taken six months to a year. 

I'm not sure what the maintenance process looks like. It is a centrally managed application. I don't know which team actually covers it. Here in Greece, we have some application subunits that can support end-users, however, not the actual technical team. It is somewhere in the world. I don't know if it is in America, or if it is in India. I really don't know.

The solution would be expensive for smaller organizations. 

We're a user.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

As I do with my clients when HR topics come to the table, I really, really suggest everyone consider deploying some Workday features. I know it is expensive for some companies. Of course, if the company's a middle-sized company, it may not make sense. However, it is an application that, according to Gartner or other popular reviews, it is the best solution for HR, management, and talent acquisition management.
