Greatly improved our efficiency with its integrated time and attendance module
Dayforce has given us near to real-time access to time sheets and clockings since it has an integrated time and attendance module. Within six minutes of someone clocking in, we can see them on the timesheets. Dayforce has enabled us to smooth out our payroll system so not everything is happening at the end of the payroll cycle. We can see the impacts during the week and make it a lot more manageable. It's also been helpful for benefits administration with employees being able to file life and work events online. They can access their pay stubs, request leave, change their address, update their direct deposit details, and other things. We've become much more efficient, and much less paper driven.

Centralized leave and payroll management has saved time and simplifies approvals for our teams
HiBob has positively impacted my organization by making it very easy to track employee leaves and employee time off. Managing all of that in one system, having it all in one place, has really saved a lot of time for HR teams and management teams where approval does not need to go through a series of channels. It is all there in one platform and easily trackable. The quickest outcome I can share since using HiBob is that when we need leave approved, it is much easier. It is quite quick to really assess and review whether it is something that can be approved, and it is just a matter of a few clicks. This is the easiest experience I have ever had.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Employees like being able to see what entitlements/balances that they have for their time away."
"We needed a comprehensive HR software solution, and we found it with Ceridian Dayforce."
"We have been able to automate many of our manual processes."
"Dayforce has transformed how we operate by saving us time, paper, accuracy, money, and the employee/supervisor experience."
"It provides real-time information with great reports."
"Our employee benefits enrollment is managed through Ceridian Dayforce, which makes for a limited manual process."
"Reporting I can pull anything out of Dayforce."
"We like being able to hire from the Dayforce recruiting module straight into Dayforce and having the file feeds go to our benefits vendor."
"Everything works great, and I am quite happy with it."
"HiBob integrates with various tools, such as Slack, Jira, and Google Calendar."
 

Cons

"The solution's initial setup was difficult. Also, the solution's initial deployment took around six months."
"The solution's dashboards and geofencing could be improved."
"I would also like to see some improvement in standard reports. A standard report should be available to pull the required information for Affirmative Action Plans. I do not think I should have to build or create one."
"Management and reporting of the GL costing could be improved."
"Dayforce has its gaps like every HR system, but nothing comes to mind at the moment."
"The reporting could be improved."
"I would like to see more built-in forms, like government issued forms (T2200). This would save a lot of time during the year-end process."
"I would like the solution to improve its customer service communication."
"HiBob isn't as user-friendly for managing contractors, part-time employees, or consultants."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Negotiate for everything you want."
"Earlier, the price of the product was reasonable. Under present circumstances, the price or cost of the product has been increased."
"The XOXO program associated with Dayforce allows you to earn credits towards registration and accommodations at their annual Insight Conferences, which can be a real savings to the company when sending employees to the conference."
"I rate the solution's pricing a seven on a scale where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"In terms of pricing, the product is expensive. However, it is crucial to take into account the manner in which the solution will be utilized and the availability of other alternatives."
"We paid for the implementation costs in the first year with the money that we saved by switching to Dayforce HCM."
"We found the setup costs and pricing to be very reasonable."
"Ceridian continually enhances Dayforce HCM. Some of these enhancements they charge for and some are just straight enhancements with no extra charge."
