CS
HR MANAGER at a financial services firm with 501-1,000 employees
Allows us to connect with, take care of, and nurture possible employees
The video function could be improved. Now that we do a lot of digital interviews, you can actually have your own video function. Still, I would prefer if it were more of a team function where you could change the background, for example. With everyone currently working from home offices due to lockdowns, some of the backgrounds look quite unprofessional. It would be nice if we could have our own unique background — for branding purposes during interviews. When we schedule an interview, in the message function, you can create a placeholder using a name, etc. I would like to have more generic placeholders and for them to be included in the message function when you schedule the interview.
Streamlined time tracking boosts operational efficiency across multiple regions
The time tracking feature is the most effective for employee management. UKG is used in Europe, the United States, Australia, and East Asian countries for HR activities like payroll. The application is like an ERP, providing comprehensive features for organizations, simplifying their processes, and reducing the need to use multiple software solutions.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's just an easy solution to connect with."
"From my experience, there's no better system currently on the market."
"Customer service is good."
"We use the tool for various functions, including payroll, HR, recruiting, onboarding, and workforce management. We've implemented all these modules across all the clients I've worked with."
"Now that we have cleaned up our data, the reports are much more accurate, and I find the reports to be great."
"Reporting"
"It has helped with keeping track of employees time sheets, wage garnishments, and 401(k) deferrals."
"Self Service has opened up a lot for employees, and there is more visibility to employee data from all levels."
"Customer service is great."
"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."
 

Cons

"The video function could be improved."
"The video function could be improved. It would be nice if we could have our own unique background — for branding purposes during interviews."
"Every now and then, I have some issues with stability using Report Studio. I get some odd errors at times that cause the system to become unusable, and I have to close out without saving my changes."
"Since UKG is a SaaS software, other parts of the application or add-on solutions are not the best in class or very configurable."
"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."
"The tax corrections are a bit burdensome; you have to void and reissue payments."
"A chat feature for customer support would be great. Some questions are simple that we shouldn't have to create a case just to get an answer for (emails do not get answered for several days, if at all)."
"Rollout of new products/communication is sometimes problematic."
"The submit button sometimes does not work and the timesheet stays in the "In Progress" mode."
"I would like the capability to use UKG as a single platform without the need to alternate between systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay a fixed amount that includes support. I think it's a very good deal actually."
"The platform is not affordable but also not the most expensive."
"While I am unsure of the licensing cost itself, the total cost of implementation and licensing for a company with over 5000 employees would be around 6,00,000. So, there are additional costs beyond licensing."
"The pricing depends on the number of licenses we buy."
"I wasn't involved in the pricing part. I'm a user, and I believe it is based on the user count. One thing that is nice about Ultimate is that you can learn how to use the system without additional fees. The learning aspect is the life of a product, and the training was a huge reason why we went with Ultimate. We did have some integration costs. They were a part of the implementation because of the integrations to other systems that we included in our implementation."
"If you're going for the full suite, it can be fairly pricey."
"UKG's pricing and licensing model involves ongoing expenses based on the number of employees paid. The initial implementation cost is low when UKG implements it directly. However, when partners handle the implementation, it becomes more expensive since partners don't receive the monthly recurring fees."
