"We have been able to automate many of our manual processes."
"The fact that the time and attendance system is built into the HRIS is very valuable because, in the past, we had to use two different systems."
"It has created efficiencies in HR and Payroll by eliminating double entry into two systems, implementing a time clock feature for hourly employees, and by having a downloadable general ledger (G/L) constructing journal entering for payroll."
"I have not encountered many bugs, and in the rare instances where problems occurred, Ceridian Dayforce HCM promptly fixed them. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"Our employee benefits enrollment is managed through Ceridian Dayforce, which makes for a limited manual process."
"Dayforce has transformed how we operate by saving us time, paper, accuracy, money, and the employee/supervisor experience."
"Configuring your HR policies and rules is straightforward."
"Payroll processing is my favorite HCM feature, and I like all the SuccessFactors talent modules also. SAP is making good progress on enhancements to the features in the SF modules."
"The most valuable feature is the Personnel Administration."
"The setup was straightforward."
"SAP HCM has a good performance."
"When you maintain your data in SAP, you can generate any kind of HR report with one click."
"It is a scalable solution. There are three administrators maintaining the solution: an HR person, a payroll person, and one backup."
"We've found that the solution has the capability to scale."
"They have some interesting features in the learning space."
"One area to be improved is the solution's reporting function, which can be cumbersome."

"The reporting could be improved."
"It would be nice if retro pay calculations were made automatically for salaried payroll, so a calculation and manual entry do not have to be done."

"I would like the solution to improve its customer service communication."
"Many things are presented as though they will be included with the system but then require costly upgrades."
"SAP HCM's long and tedious transactions can be improved."
"I would like it to move more towards a single data space, a single data source. SAP as a platform relies on multiple data sources because traditionally, it's been bolted together by the acquisition of other products rather than a single database. That's why there are lots of points of failure and lots of required points of integration. They need a single integration point."
"A better user interface and greater AI integration are crucial."
"HCM could improve compatibility, making it more accessible via web applications and graphical interfaces."
"The breadth of functionality offered by SAP HCM comes at a cost."
"SAP now does the most innovation for the cloud solution and less innovation for the on-premises client."

"SAP HCM has many different channels for communication with the consultants which makes it complex. There are delays when there is a problem."
