Featured Reviews

Vicki Sham - PeerSpot reviewer
Recruiter at TransVolving
Easy to use, helps place candidates fast, and provides instant notifications
It helped me to place candidates much easier and faster. For example: 1. The job is much more thoroughly presented with a job description, and everything a recruiter needs to know is already well presented when you pick up the job. I love the audio briefing function. It's a record from the hiring team, so it saves time and effort for me to schedule a time with the client to brief the job. Also, I assume it saved a lot of time for hiring companies to schedule with different recruiters to do the job briefing repeatedly. 2. The interview request can be made automatically on the platform instead of back and forth through email. 3. With instant communication tools, the hiring team is more engaging.

Automation has transformed hire to retire processes and delivers powerful HR analytics
In Workday Human Capital Management, I feel that the security part needs to be improved. Workday gives complete control to the implementers regarding security and who is going to see what data. There are sometimes loopholes that are not identified unless fully tested. If Workday had a security alert system, even a small alert would help the security architect secure all information better, especially sensitive data such as payroll. Additionally, customization is another area of improvement, as Workday provides a default blue and yellow theme, which may not align with a company's branding. If Workday provided the option to customize themes based on a company's preferences, it would enhance the user experience.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The job is much more thoroughly presented with a job description, and everything a recruiter needs to know is already well presented when you pick up the job."
"The most valuable feature of Workday is the ease of navigation to browse the application. The solution can hold information about the company and people with accounts can be discovered by others in the whole company."
"The solution is extremely stable."
"Workday is a holistic HR solution."
"Performance and good usability are the two most valuable features of this solution."
"The platform itself is very robust and I generally like the reporting and analytics capability."
"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."
"Everything is in Workday as far as personnel is concerned."
"Overall, this solution provides a good user experience and is very easy to use."
 

Cons

"It would be great to have a mobile version in the future."
"I would really like to see a more robust timekeeping solution in Workday. Currently, most organizations are using Kronos for timekeeping and Workday for HR data. They then integrate Workday with Dimensions to manage time-related activities and payroll processing."
"It is good that much of the development is based on community input but often that can lead to details being ignored and small, nagging issues are ignored."
"The solution has some features missing when you put them in the test studio or Confluence Studio. I would like the tool’s coding to be easier to understand and automated. Most of the coding these days is automated. Any query given can pull the answer directly which can make the solution easier to understand."
"For time management, it does not have a calendar generator. For example, if you want to have a shift calendar for an entire year, you need to push the entire year's calendar into the system instead of being able to generate it using a time management pattern."
"This solution could be made easier to use by continuing to release new improvements."
"Workday would be improved with more API connectors."
"Workday could improve by adding other features, such as messaging to candidates and other recruiting capabilities that other new-age solutions have."
"Errors are not very clear in some cases. I've been experiencing some issues within the application that the error messages or what I needed to do were not very easily clear to me."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It's very, very expensive."
"I need to pay for a license. It is expensive."
"Its price is pretty high. It is more expensive than what is offered by other competitors in the market."
"Each module comes with an additional cost. It operates on a mid-price model. So, there is an additional payment for each module needed. The solution might be costlier for smaller companies, making it more suitable for mid to large-sized enterprises."
"I would rate the solution’s pricing a six out of ten."
"Workday is moderately priced - I'd rate its pricing three out of five."
"The solution is flexible in terms of pricing."
"The pricing is good from an HR perspective, although management gets upset after spending $500,000 a year, every year."
