Pros
"The solution offers good customization and good dashboards."

More iCIMS Recruit Pros →

"UKG allows us to customize our home screen so that we can easily monitor important items on a daily basis.""It enables us to manage the system ourselves. We don't need an additional team to do a lot of maintenance and add the things that we want.""It is much easier to use and the customer service is better than our previous solution.""I like UKG's integration.""The solution's UI is good. Also, it is very easy to use.""I have found the most valuable feature to be business intelligence and Cognos reporting.""The solution has improved our organization by helping us cut hours and lessen our labor force. It saved us probably over $100,000 in just the last couple of years.""The most valuable feature is being able to get time management reports which break out reclassified jobs and departments to separate areas of the company. This allows for better tracking of hours spent in certain jobs and where more hours may be needed."

Cons
"If reporting could be more robust, that would be phenomenal."

More iCIMS Recruit Cons →

"One area where UKG could improve is in its ability to understand its own competency and then work hard to improve it.""Certainly, the time and attendance and the payroll integration need a lot of work. They are disjointed pieces, and they don't work smoothly together. That's the main drawback.""I would like the capability to use UKG as a single platform without the need to alternate between systems.""I would like to see more functionality in the next release to be able to get hours and dollars per calendar month rather than just by payroll in the Business Intelligence reports.""The solution could improve by simplifying it even more core reports, such as more sample reports, more generic reports that you can edit and improve on yourself.""UKG could be a little more flexible in some areas.""The solution could use better reporting with standard reports. We use the Cognos platform in BI for a lot of our reporting. However, they need to have more robust standard reporting available to their user base.""The navigation on the screen could be better. Sometimes, I have to dig a little bit deep to find what I need. Everything is there. It just needs to be a little bit smoother."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "I wasn't involved in the pricing part. I'm a user, and I believe it is based on the user count. One thing that is nice about Ultimate is that you can learn how to use the system without additional fees. The learning aspect is the life of a product, and the training was a huge reason why we went with Ultimate. We did have some integration costs. They were a part of the implementation because of the integrations to other systems that we included in our implementation."
  • "While I am unsure of the licensing cost itself, the total cost of implementation and licensing for a company with over 5000 employees would be around 6,00,000. So, there are additional costs beyond licensing."
