What differentiates Workday Human Capital Management from other similar products?

Workday helped us with a global onboarding seamless experience which is a very attractive feature as HCM. Workday HCM gives HR the capability to do visual and graphical analysis across time with the ability to slice and dice information easily. It helps in learning by using inbuilt integration with the "Percipio University" and is also useful to set goals. All openings from the HR team are also available through Workday. Customisation of this tool plays a vital role, we recently updated our covid vaccination status through Workday only. You can easily find out the complete organisational hierarchy through the workday in a graphical manner.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

There is a lot of favourite aspect of this product for me. But the security and user-friendliness of this tool irrespective of platform won my heart as a favourite aspect. Workday's Reporting functionalities are so sophisticated and it would be nice to have a click-drag-and-drop approach to building a custom report oneself. Login is possible only through multi-factor authentication and also integrated with the "Authenticate app". Mobile applications have also a face/touch-ID feature to provide additional security for access. This platform has the agility and power of data analytics to uncover the stories and opportunities for improvement.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Since this platform is a global HCM platform that is why this platform is a little expensive. Sometimes I feel there are delays in compensation updating when we get hikes under the payroll section. There have been times when I and my colleague were trying to find information and even the search feature wasn't pulling anything up. But the above-mentioned issues I faced once in blue moon so please don't consider as dislike. Rather than dislike consider it as likelihood feedback which I wish will be solved in an upcoming release.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

As for recommendations, I would say Workday HCM is a platform that is widely used across the world in all industries. So while pre-joining as well this platform is not new for employees to provide/upload joining related formalities. This platform is flexible and likes learning and growing in their knowledge. WorkDay was able to more quickly synchronise any changes in employee data to other ecosystems like O365. If you have a larger workforce, in class and simplify talent management processes then blindly choose Workday as a Human capital Management platform.
