What differentiates Workday Human Capital Management from other similar products?

You can tell it is much more current, it is extremely intuitive to direct employees to where they want to find different information, like Payroll or Requesting Time Off. Other software I have experience with have been far less intuitive or had more clicks involved or you had to dig to find what you were looking for.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Ease of use to find the information you are wanting most! In most cases, you don't even need to contact Human Resources or Payroll with monthly needs.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The Onboarding Area and Trainings available to help a company get up and going could use more.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

This is by far the best all around product option that you have to manage your workforce. There are good companies that do have good products. But, if you are looking for the top option that will be easy for your employees to interact with, minimize hardships that can come from an application where employees have a hard time interacting with, then this is your choice! Although I was not involved in the implementation, I understand that went extremely well and as an end use side, it was very easy and not disruptive at all!

What differentiates Workday Human Capital Management from other similar products?

Workday is able to offer a rich suite of products that comes with a lot of customization while still maintaining user friendly experience. Everything you feels intuitive.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect of the product would have to be the rich options for Compensation Management.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Currently, a few basic features that are already taken for granted in other products are still unavailable in Workday. I dislike that every issue and feature needs to be put to a vote to get anywhere.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Consider the cost and consider the deeper customization options that you would like to have before going forward with Workday.
