"The reporting features are also very valuable because, on top of 300+ reports available on the system, you can also customize quite a number of reports."
"The report builder and dashboard builder are very, very good."
"The solution is beneficial overall."

"The most valuable feature is the ease of reporting."
"It is quite user-friendly."
"It stores everything for the employee. It has also been able to store the information that we use for our payroll demand."
"Workday is highly intuitive from a customer experience perspective. It was effortless for us to understand what to do even though we didn't have any related training. It was easy to use without guidance."
"Its technical support could have been better."
"The user interface is not great."
"If Sage People were to become a fully cloud-based solution, it could lead to significant improvements. With the COVID pandemic highlighting the benefits of remote work, a complete shift to cloud-based functionality would be a welcome development for users."
"The integration with our payroll system could improve. However, it is managed by another company."
"In my opinion, the performance management module of this system could use improvement as it falls behind compared to other specialized performance management platforms."
"There were a couple of things that we wanted to customize, but we couldn’t do it ourselves."
"Right now, Sage doesn't seem to have what we are looking for when it comes to managing HR tickets. In my previous experiences with other HR software, we had to buy another solution to obtain this functionality, and it would be a great feature for Sage to consider adding. For an HR system, Sage would do very well to include it."
"The budget module does not work. Sage People need to maybe make it more user-friendly."
"The finance module of this solution is not great and needs improvement."
"There could be a web-based application for making payments to the employees."
"One potential feature that could be added is the ability to streamline business processes through quick tips and guided tours. This would allow for a smoother and more guided experience for colleagues as they navigate through different processes and steps. It would be similar to a guidance system or a step-by-step tutorial that could be added after the business process to guide users through it."
"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."
"The user interface could be better. Everything else was fine."
"This solution could be made easier to use by continuing to release new improvements."
"Workday would be improved with more API connectors."
"They don't have worker payroll in the product. We have to solve our payroll. I hope one day they will be able to have their own localized standard payrolls for all countries."
