I give the solution a nine out of ten if I put aside the mismanaged implementation.

During our implementation errors were made and we lost data that is no longer available to some users. In addition to the lost data, the solution is slow to pull up information and I am not sure if this is due to the botched implementation or if it is the solution itself.

My department is made up of 2,500 employees and we all use this solution.

I would recommend using the solution. 

Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. 

Like any other software system, the initial setup is crucial, and it requires a degree of follow-up and monitoring in the early stages. However, it proves to be an effective and valuable solution in the end.

I would rate it a nine out of ten.

I would rate the overall solution an eight out of ten. I will recommend this solution to other users.

I rate Workday eight out of 10. We did not require training to use Workday, but they provide a lot of supporting material that's useful to help everyone embrace the solution. In my experience, there are always some people who are hesitant to work with a solution like this. 

The materials are a good way to overcome because you can show them the benefits they would get by embracing this new way of working. Highlight some facts and data about the benefits they would get by implementing a solution like this.

We're a user.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

As I do with my clients when HR topics come to the table, I really, really suggest everyone consider deploying some Workday features. I know it is expensive for some companies. Of course, if the company's a middle-sized company, it may not make sense. However, it is an application that, according to Gartner or other popular reviews, it is the best solution for HR, management, and talent acquisition management.

There is no maintenance required for Workday.

I would advise others to use the solution. It is a holistic tool that does not only focus on candidate experience but on team member experience, it is an end-to-end solution.

I rate Workday a ten out of ten.

The size of my team we have for maintenance is approximately 20 members, not including our reporting team. However, even the reporting team is in-house and part of our organization. In total, we have approximately 25 individuals.

I rate Workday a nine out of ten.

I rate Workday a ten out of ten.

This solution is deployed on the cloud for our company.

When it comes to other people looking into this solution, I would advise looking at your work order and the types of things you need. There are tons of different applications out there and it's all about finding the one that's best for you and that fits the most to your organization's needs.

I would rate Workday as a solution an eight, on a scale from one to 10, with one being the worst and 10 being the best.

You would require a really good partner. You would also require in-house expertise, specifically within the technology itself. You need to be able to go out and attract and bring in the talent to help you be successful. You need to understand that doing it really well is going to require more of an investment than what you're hearing in the sales. If you've got 2,000 employees, Workday may say that you could support this entire application with two or three people, but just in my experience, if you have a lot of modules licensed, it's probably not realistic. You're probably not going to extract the full value. You need to understand whether you are okay with not getting everything out of what you're paying for. If so, that's fine, but if you really want to get the bang for your buck, it's going to require an investment. 

You also need to understand that it's going to take time to implement. So, you need to manage expectations and understand what are other priorities in the organization and what the fiscal year looks like. Is it a standard calendar? If you're going through something that's going to impact financials, you're probably not going to want to roll out something really heavy on January 1st. You would want to have that in place prior to that.

Workday also has a financial piece that they offer in their technology stack that competes against Oracle. We don't currently use that, but it is a good piece of technology. They also have a learning management system that integrates directly with the other pieces of data.

Workday's model and what they really preach is this idea of the Power of One. So, they try to get everything within one environment. The sales pitch is that it is going to then reduce the number of other vendors or applications that you would have to have and integrate with, which holds true in some cases. It might not hold true in other cases depending on the needs of the business, budget, internal expertise, and things of that nature. It's just an overarching model that you see in tech where a lot of IT departments want to license the best in class and scale from there.

I'd rate it a nine out of ten. Overall, it delivers a really seamless solution that allows for operational efficiencies and operational excellence. 

I recommend Workday to others and rate it a seven out of ten.

We would recommend this solution to organizations looking for a unifying product, as there is very little need for customization or development and it is easy to use from implementation.

We would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

To those considering using this solution, I'd advise doing a proper check. Pay attention and ask more questions.

I'd rate Workday a seven out of ten.

The advice I would give to others considering Workday is to know that it's big and time-consuming. I would rate this solution a seven out of ten

I would advise making sure that your HR data is clean. Take your time. Everybody is eager to implement a new shiny toy, but a lot of cleanups are required to get your house in order. You have got to clean up your HR data and make sure that there are no duplicate employees, people are assigned to the right job descriptions, and there are no such people who are terminated but still sit in your organization. When you actually migrate the data, all such issues will create a lot of problems. 

It is a leading talent management tool, and it has got the largest market share. I would rate Workday a ten out of ten.

The tool is easy to maintain and requires around two to three people. Workday is flexible, but SAP and Oracle are better regarding integration with other products and stability. I rate it a nine out of ten. 

I would recommend this solution to anyone who is interested.

I would rate Workday an eight out of ten.

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten. 

I rate the product a nine out of ten. 

The reporting capability is perfectly adequate in 90% of cases, given the requisite training. For "heavy-duty" analytics across very large datasets, consider the integration required for integrating with an on-premise data warehouse, for example... There will be considerable additional overhead in managing the outbound files, SFTP, ETL, etc. from a cloud source vs an on-premise source.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten. 

I would, of course, recommend this solution to others. It is a good solution.

I would rate it an eight out of ten.

For a large organization, this product is really good. For a small organization, there are better value products in the market. Overall, this solution provides a  good user experience and is very easy to use.

I've been in the HR/Payroll product domain for about 25 years, so I've been involved in the development of Ceridian's applications and other companies as well. I know a lot about other products and competitors.

Workday is a bit different, but I love it. You get used to it. It is like back-in-the-day when HR and the payroll system used to be the determining factor in whether you got to have a company laptop or not.

One piece of advice to anyone considering this as a solution is to implement it properly. Spend the time and do it right the first time. Don't rush the requirements, don't skip steps just to get to a stage of deployment. Do your requirements properly. Consider everything beforehand. Don't leave things till later that you should do now. It will be worth the extra time that you invest. That is really true for everyone and every implementation, but especially for Workday. Trying to go back in after the fact and change things is just really complicated and it is a real pain. Skipping steps to get it implemented is a big thing that we notice that clients do.

We have often had to go back and fix something that a client overlooked or looked past. There's always something changing, there's always something that wasn't done correctly. There's always some tweaking afterward. The more tweaking you avoid by doing it right, the less you pay to get it fixed.

After releases, 99 percent of the time it is great and it will not introduce issues. In my experience, it is really rare for issues to crop up or that those issues are so extreme that a client will have to roll an upgrade back. I find that the releases are really well-tested and well-managed. They have two releases a year and in those two releases, they are usually pretty good at getting new features out there.

On a scale from one to ten with one being the worst and ten being the best, I would rate Workday as an 8. Having had 25 years of being involved in the development of other Ceridian products, the development of some other products and having to work with PeopleSoft as a customer, Workday is right there with the best of them.

I have worked with ERP systems. I could recommend the solution to others. However, people must attend training to understand the tool. Overall, I rate the product a six out of ten.

We're a partner with Workday.

An organization considering the solution needs to first organize its requirements. That was the hardest part for us. That was the part that had to be fleshed out by my executives as to what we really wanted. That took a long time, I'm not going to kid you. However, it's a very important part of the process - especially due to the fact that there are so many solutions to choose from and you really need to understand what you need in order to get to which solution is best suited.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

I would advise others to be cautious while selecting a product. Selecting the product is a crucial phase, and you have to know whether the product meets your requirements because you have really limited customization options in a cloud product. 

There is a great amount of support from Workday for implementation. There are also implementation partners in the market.

I would rate Workday an eight out of ten.

Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. I would recommend Workday to other people. 

My advice to others would be to make sure that they understand their requirements. They must have detailed process requirements, and if they see some gaps, they should identify those gaps up front. Workday can be flexible in this regard, so customers should understand what they need to do. 

On a scale of one to ten, my rating for this solution is a nine. In the next version I would like to see a simpler user interface to create reports.

Check carefully whether Workday supports payroll in your country; otherwise it takes additional costs and efforts to build integration.

I would rate Workday as six out of ten.

I would highly recommend it to anyone. It’s the only fully consolidated in-memory application on the market.

Don’t dip your toe in the water, jump in. With a solution like this there are great returns to be had, but you need to invest in really using the API’s, building automation with workflows and centralizing HCM here. If you keep recruiting, performance management, etc. outside of the system you will have purchased an airplane so you can drive around the neighborhood.

I would rate it an eight out of ten. I had minimal issues with the software. The issues that I experienced were things that we were able to fix.

This is definitely a product that I recommend. I still think it's one of the better solutions that you're not paying for customization with. There are better products out there, but you have to customize them. Then, you're paying for increased costs with deliverables. You create a lot of spaghetti strings on customization, then you have to hire consultants to do the work.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

I would rate this product an eight out of 10. 

Most important criteria when selecting a vendor:

• It works for all the countries that we have.
• We are able to implement it.
• It can handle all the necessary modules within the system, such as authorization of benefits and time management.

Great product, think about the BAU/support. It changes the way old ERPs work and creates a whole set of changes to how the BAU works.

I would rate it an eight out of ten.

My advice to anybody who is implementing this solution is to first prepare the company so that Workday will best support the organization. You need to integrate it properly into the business. After that is the security configuration, which is the complex part.

Moving to a cloud solution after using an on-premises solution has given me some difficulty because there is a gap. However, the user interface is easier to use.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

I am working with a product called ServiceNow, but we use Workday for some interfaces. We help with the integration and data from Workday. We are using Workday for our client's companies. 

Our company is part of Bitpro and we use our internal systems.

The technical support needs to improve in reducing their wait time.

If they have time, then I would suggest the look at ServiceNow. They have the platform to cater to other departments, from customer service to security or IT service management.

If you don't have a large number of business requirements where you want to be complete within six months, the Workday would be a good option.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

I would rate Workday a seven out of ten. No software would get a ten because there is no existing software on the market that is perfect. 

First time users, understanding accessibility and consolidated data is fairly easy. The solution improves productivity for users and reduces the need to switch between different tools. The confidentiality of the data can be maintained and secured sing Workday.

I would rate Workday a seven out of ten. 

The solution is cloud-based.

Our organization has 1,000 people making use of the solution. 

I would recommend the solution to others, owing to its stability.
