The effectiveness, user-friendliness, and adaptability to new features are key strengths of Workday. It's also convenient for sourcing, allowing us to revisit candidates who performed well but didn't pass the interview.

At times, I've heard from our technical team that configuring or implementing certain requests from senior leadership can be challenging. There seem to be constraints in fulfilling specific requirements. Unfortunately, I don't have detailed information as it's what I've gathered from discussions with the technical team. There might be limitations in what can be achieved, but I can't provide specific examples without more context.
Certainly, there's room for enhancement, especially in terms of regular upgrades. I've noticed that there aren't many updates, and it would be beneficial to have improvements. Regular upgrades and the introduction of new, innovative solutions could make our work more efficient and easier to manage.
I have been using Workday Business Process Framework for last two years.

The implementation process duration varied based on the module. For example, modules like legal and compliance took approximately two to three months each for deployment and configuration.
We conduct troubleshooting, and the technical team, particularly our Linux administrators, handles most of it. We have a team of around thirty people, including SREs, full stack DevOps, Linux administrators, and data analysts, along with specialists in machine learning.
I find it reasonably priced, even for startups. The cost is minimal and depends on what features you want to add. Workday allows customization and personalization, and it operates like a cloud solution, making it affordable as long as you know what you need.
I would strongly recommend it. And in terms of overall satisfaction, I would give it a nine out of ten.

The platform's most valuable feature is understanding the effectiveness of business processes. It helps us audit and analyze transaction execution times providing us crucial insights. It is efficient to fine-tune some of our organizational processes and policies.
Workday Business Process Framework lacks automation features. We can work on a lot of customization with its on-premise version. However, there could be automated functionality for its mobile version as well. At present, it requires manual intervention. There could be more automation included.
We have been using Workday Business Process Framework since November.
The product is stable enough. We encounter challenges during the transitioning process of multiple instances. We have to work through many issues related to configuration errors affecting payroll. It requires specific training and knowledge to understand the new expectations of human capital partners, colleagues, and line managers. The complexity of a specific organization's requirement might contribute to the varied experiences and challenges in configuring effectively.
The product offers favorable scalability for your organization's international expansion and growth across different footprints. It is simple to acquire and onboard new entities. We can work on three to four full-fledged projects.
The technical support team's response time they needed improvement in the beginning. At the moment, they have improved the response time in some cases. However, it could be better to adapt to new communication mediums.

We used Oracle's on-premise version before. However, we couldn't optimize it well as the concept of business framework was new back then. We have adapted Workday Business Process Framework and use it properly.
The initial setup is complex in dealing with different countries, each with unique legal and legislative frameworks, which pose significant localization challenges. Our organization has a segmented structure, with different franchises operating independently, leading to a decentralized approach, making it challenging to unify processes and systems. We have to balance local requirements, including understanding the terms and the latest data. They should do R&D from an application's point of view.
It is a straightforward process once we know how to set up the business definition. It has certain limitations in terms of automated functionality. They could have more automation to reduce manual intervention.
We take help from consultants with essential knowledge for implementation.
We evaluated Oracle Cloud ERP. We decided to use Workday Business Process Framework for better pricing.
I rate Workday Business Process Framework a nine out of ten.
