Works at a manufacturing company with 51-200 employees

Benefits, Life Events and OE have allowed us to move away from paper and integrate/track our data with our benefit providers. This allows us to better focus on improving benefits and communications versus data entry.

The Open enrollment and Life Events processes within UltiPro have enabled us
to manage benefit changes and open enrollment elections online.

We no longer utilize paper and receive email notifications for approval. In
addition, we are able to report on this information much easier now.

Sr HRIS Analyst at a real estate/law firm with 201-500 employees

It is very agile. There are some custom fields that we need, and we're able to add them ourselves. We have two people on our team, and if someone comes to us and says, "Hey, I need a new field on this particular page," we're able to do that without anybody else's assistance.

It is mobile-ready, and you can do everything on your phone. Everything that you can do on a desktop can be done on your phone. It helps with self-service because we're pushing people to utilize the system to their best ability.

The UltiPro application's configurability allowed us to create a more impactful and meaningful performance review process, allowing us to align competencies with the company's core values, as well as each individual position.

The built-in alerts, plus the alerts that we have put together, have worked to help us achieve a completion rate for our performance reviews that we've never seen previously.

We have been able to move to a paperless onboarding process for new employees. We have also been able to automate our compensation increase process, moving away from sending Excel spreadsheets back and forth between HR and managers. Now, managers are able to enter the data once via Ultipro's salary planning, and workflow the review and completion process through to HR for final approval and acceptance into payroll; no more double-, sometimes, triple-keying of the same data.

If there was an error on an employee's pay during the payroll auditing process, we would have to correct the error and send it off for validation, which could take another 20-30 minutes to verify. If it was wrong, you do it all over again. With UltiPro, I fix the error and can see immediately if everything is correct.

  • Fun, and easy to use on the cloud portion
  • There is a need to manage back-office applications in order to get everything done which is a more complex setting with security not flowing through. Also, complexity in compensation plans is not accommodated. 
  • Prorations over more then a pay period is not possible, so allocating mid-hire bonuses prorated will be a manual task to accomplish. 
  • System slowdowns and bugs when processing payroll on Mondays and Tuesdays with too much high traffic from other customers. If you are patient, have a simple payroll, other requirements, and no rushes.
  • Ultimate is cute and fun. 
  • It creates more manual work at a slower pace, fills your week as a user, and as an enterprise you might want to utilize that time elsewhere. Also, the cost for services after implementation is out of this world.
