Featured Reviews

Vicki Sham - PeerSpot reviewer
Recruiter at TransVolving
Easy to use, helps place candidates fast, and provides instant notifications
It helped me to place candidates much easier and faster. For example: 1. The job is much more thoroughly presented with a job description, and everything a recruiter needs to know is already well presented when you pick up the job. I love the audio briefing function. It's a record from the hiring team, so it saves time and effort for me to schedule a time with the client to brief the job. Also, I assume it saved a lot of time for hiring companies to schedule with different recruiters to do the job briefing repeatedly. 2. The interview request can be made automatically on the platform instead of back and forth through email. 3. With instant communication tools, the hiring team is more engaging.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The job is much more thoroughly presented with a job description, and everything a recruiter needs to know is already well presented when you pick up the job."
"I would say that we have definitely seen a return on investment."
"We use Workday for HR services and found the software to be very user-friendly compared to the previous software."
"Technical support is always available."
"Workday is a holistic HR solution."
"With Workday being a cloud application and SaaS model, the upgrade process is no more a nightmare; it gets updated overnight."
"I would highly recommend it to anyone."
"It's really stable, we use it globally and have 100,000 employees, and I know that there are no big issues with the stability of the tool."
"Overall, this solution provides a good user experience and is very easy to use."
 

Cons

"It would be great to have a mobile version in the future."
"The security console should be made less complex."
"Workday could give us industry-specific or vertical-specific solutions."
"The product must include payroll features."
"The user interface could be modernized somehow."
"The UI, UX (user experience) is very bad. It is not very interactive."
"Workday is an expensive solution."
"In terms of reporting, we have to rely on a consultant to do the report customization. The most important thing is to be able to do your own reporting, which it can't do. We rely so much on our consultant to customize reports for us."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It's very, very expensive."
"By and large, Workday is expensive. It is based on the headcount. I'd probably rate it a three or four out of five in terms of pricing. It'd be like buying a Mercedes or a high-end car. It's expensive, but there's a specific value that you're getting with additional features and things of that nature. Using that metaphor, Workday probably tends to be more of a luxury. There are others like ADP that can do your payroll, your time off, and other things, but they don't do it as well."
"I would rate the solution’s pricing a six out of ten."
"The pricing is good from an HR perspective, although management gets upset after spending $500,000 a year, every year."
"Workday is moderately priced - I'd rate its pricing three out of five."
"Its price is pretty high. It is more expensive than what is offered by other competitors in the market."
"It is on a yearly basis."
"The solution is flexible in terms of pricing."
