Great for large organizations, excellent customization, from a seasoned user.

Our primary use cases are related to payroll The layer of customization is very high and this has improved our organization. The most valuable feature is you can customize every type of payroll calculation that you have. The user interface could be improved and the maintenance is complex when…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The most valuable features of Meta4 are payroll and resource recruitment. However, all of the features in the human resource system are useful."

"The most valuable feature of this solution is the payment engine."

"The solution has a great payroll engine."

"The performance appraisal is the most valuable feature."

"The support team were friendly and work in a systematic way. When contacting support you are able to add a level of priority to your case which is always respected by their team."

"The tool provides a lot of options."

"The most valuable feature is you can customize every type of payroll calculation that you have."

"Performance appraisal might be the most valuable feature for us."

"It is much easier to use and the customer service is better than our previous solution."

"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 fact that I can see the whole HR information in a single point is valuable. There is a unified view of everything, which is good. Previously, we had many different systems for each part of the information. Now, it is all centralized. It is very good."

"The solution's UI is good. Also, it is very easy to use."

"The pay policies and approvals are valuable features."

"We use the tool for various functions, including payroll, HR, recruiting, onboarding, and workforce management. We've implemented all these modules across all the clients I've worked with."

"The solution's employee experience is pretty good."

"UKG allows us to customize our home screen so that we can easily monitor important items on a daily basis."

Cons

"The solution is a little bit slow."

"Meta4 could improve by allowing users to manage things by themself."

"The user interface could be improved and the maintenance is complex when it comes to upgrades."

"In future releases, it would be useful to see reporting lines of all the team members in our business to understand who reports to whom."

"The HR portal, training model, and development career model could all use improvement. Stability and scalability should be improved as well."

"I would like to have recruitment and acquisition features added to this solution."

"The HR portal, training model, and the development career model all need improvement."

"training and performance could be improved."

"The tool needs improvement on the configuration side."

"The product's integration features need improvement."

"Since UKG is a SaaS software, other parts of the application or add-on solutions are not the best in class or very configurable."

"UKG has complex clock-in and clock-out features. It changes things too often, and it feels like the tool is constantly changing things without testing before implementing changes in production. Additionally, it doesn't communicate these changes very well."

"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."

"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."

"The platform's features need enhancement while being used as a recruiting tool."

"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."

More UKG cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"From a cost perspective, I think this is a well-balanced option."

"Meta4 requires annual maintenance that needs to be paid for."

"UKG's pricing and licensing model involves ongoing expenses based on the number of employees paid. The initial implementation cost is low when UKG implements it directly. However, when partners handle the implementation, it becomes more expensive since partners don't receive the monthly recurring fees."

"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."

"The pricing depends on the number of licenses we buy."

"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."

"If you're going for the full suite, it can be fairly pricey."

"The platform is not affordable but also not the most expensive."
