There is a lot to like about it. I really enjoy the business process framework. It's something that's really seamless. It allows you to have people within the flow. They get assigned a task to complete something to approve, etc. That's a really good piece of functionality that Workday offers. Their out-of-the-box reporting framework is also really powerful in terms of what it provides. These would be two things that I would highlight.
View full review »The most valuable feature of Workday is its user-friendliness. I like that you do not need to do a lot of coding to use Workday, unless you are using Studio. Even in Studio, you only need to write code for heavy integrations.
I also like that Workday is hierarchy-based and business object-based. This makes it easy to understand and use. Previously, when we used PeopleSoft, we needed to have knowledge of SQL (NPL SQL) to create integrations or reports. However, this is not required with Workday. We just need to apply the right logic, and Workday will do the rest.
I also appreciate that Workday is well-organized. There is a step-by-step process that we need to follow to configure the system. This makes it easy to implement and use.
In terms of customization, while it may not be fully customizable, you can configure the features based on the foundation that Workday offers. This allows you to take the basic features and tailor them to the specific needs of your company or business. It provides a lot of configuration flexibility.

The most valuable features of the solution are the usability, learning, and compliance tools.
View full review »I think that the key component here is to have everything centralized and that is most valuable for me. The reason this feature is valuable is that when you're working with people in different geographic regions or with those who may or may not be in the office, this solution helps in getting everything organized.

It is a one-stop solution for everything. You can look for information about other employees or you can track your information. There is a directory, so you can search for other employees. You can also see and track your personal details and salary details on the employee profile page.
It allows you to do everything related to career management. For example, you can give an employee reference. You can also refer people from outside the organization.
It also helps you with leave management. If you want to apply for leave or track your leaves, you can do that.

The software is easy to learn and use. When compared to SAP HR and SAP HCM, the tool is easy to access and understand. We have a hierarchy and structural connectivity in Workday. There is a certification for the solution and when we do it, we become the certified partners of the company.

I found the analysis features to be very useful for our company. I also found the modules installed to be aligned with our company's KPIs. These were the two features that stood out. So, the data part of it was what stood out while using this software.
