"It is a scalable solution. I would rate it a ten out of ten."
"What I like most about SAP SuccessFactors are its recruiting and compensation features."
"The interface is user-friendly. It is very simple and intuitive, so it's good."
"The solution is very intuitive. Many of the things we need to do are easily accessible."
"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 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."
"I have found the most valuable feature to be business intelligence and Cognos reporting."
"It enables us to manage the system ourselves. We don't need an additional team to do a lot of maintenance and add the things that we want."
"It is much easier to use and the customer service is better than our previous solution."
"I like UKG's integration."
"UKG allows us to customize our home screen so that we can easily monitor important items on a daily basis."
"The most valuable feature is being able to get time management reports which break out reclassified jobs and departments to separate areas of the company. This allows for better tracking of hours spent in certain jobs and where more hours may be needed."
"The process for long modules needs to be improved, because compared to how it's done with a competitor (Meta4), the competitor's process was simpler."
"They should be more user friendly and give us more tools to make it more flexible."
"SAP SuccessFactors is working on making beneficial changes but they are not fast enough. They can improve by making the improvements or updates quicker. Additionally, the user interface could improve, it is not something you want to return to when compared to a solution similar to Instagram."
"The product doesn't have a modernized look and is not very user-friendly like other products."
"It's a bit complicated to make a change in the tool... It is time-consuming."
"SAP SuccessFactors could improve learning management. The module is desperate and should be included in the primary solution. Additionally, it is missing some business use cases."
"The back end for the administration and the front end is too overtly complex and it's not aligned with our operations and learning needs."
"Everything, including the provisioning dependency, should be moved to the instance, and coding should be kept to a minimum. Wherever possible, coding should be minimized, and everything should be a drag-and-drop."
"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."
"Reporting is always a hurdle for any user just because it is so extensive. They provide a lot of out-of-the-box reports, but it is something that you always need to work on because you need more advanced writing of reports."
"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."
"The solution could use better reporting with standard reports. We use the Cognos platform in BI for a lot of our reporting. However, they need to have more robust standard reporting available to their user base."
"One area where UKG could improve is in its ability to understand its own competency and then work hard to improve it."
"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."
"I would like the capability to use UKG as a single platform without the need to alternate between systems."
"UKG could be a little more flexible in some areas."
