Dayforce HCM Reviews

We are a consulting company with multiple clients and several thousand employees. Dayforce is a central place to store all HR-related things. It covers HR data, payroll, and various HR modules. 

The biggest benefit is the integration of payroll data. It helps us effectively manage overtime and payroll, saving us so much money.

Configuring your HR policies and rules is straightforward. 

Dayforce has its gaps like every HR system, but nothing comes to mind at the moment. 

I have used Dayforce HCM for about three years.

Dayforce is scalable. 

Ceridian support is excellent. They've built a relationship with us, and there's a structure in place. 

Setting up Dayforce isn't difficult. It depends on who does the implementation, but we get a lot of guidance. I have no issue because I've done it before, and it has built-in tools to help you implement it. It can be deployed in-house or with the help of a third-party consultant. It depends on the client's requirements. 

Dayforce is worth what we pay for it. If someone is late or absent, you can account for it. We save overtime and other payroll costs at the end of the month.

I rate Ceridian Dayforce HCM nine out of 10. If you get the payroll policies set correctly, Dayforce requires no manual intervention, so you save on admin costs. When using Dayforce, the critical thing is to get your project team organized and have all the resources you need to operate it because it requires some work. You need to incorporate training and change management to make this project successful. 

We implemented Time and Attendance, Going live with Payroll, Benefits, Recruiting, Onboarding, and Performance Management. We needed a comprehensive HR software solution, and we found it with Ceridian Dayforce. 

As the HR Benefits Director, the benefits module is my favorite. The ACA Tracking, FMLA, and COBRA management are on point. With our previous software management program, we were required to manage our processes manually exposing the company to possible costly penalties. Now, our employee benefits enrollment is managed through Ceridian Dayforce, which makes for a limited manual process.

Our current software program offers a home page with important company documents and a place for company announcements. Unfortunately, Ceridian Dayfoce does not offer this.

Our previous software provided us with many false promises. They "sold" us in scheduling, however underdelivered.  

Ceridian Dayforce offers a solution with Time & Attendance scheduling, and the software fit our needs. Previously, we managed two software programs, having double entry for almost two years, before moving to the complete HR software package offered by Ceridian Dayforce.

We use the solution for typical HR functions like payroll, performance management, and time tracking. 

We used the solution to do a lot of performance management during the review cycle and it helped us alleviate the administrative burden.

I would like the solution to improve its customer service communication. 

The solution is stable but we had a couple of issues periodically that weren't constant interruptions. 

The solution is very scalable since we can have hundreds of employees as users. My company had 120 users for the product. 

I would rate the product a seven out of ten. 

We use it for payroll and HR. We also use it for the mobile app. 

User experience is great for managers, employees, and the admin.

It is very user-friendly. It provides real-time information with great reports. We have been able to automate many of our manual processes. 

• Reporting
• I can pull anything out of Dayforce.
• It has made my job so much easier. This is its best feature.

I would like to see more built-in forms, like government issued forms (T2200). This would save a lot of time during the year-end process.

This system is our main HRIS and payroll provider. We have two separate payrolls, one for our hourly staff and one for our salaried staff. 

Cloud-based systems are more convenient than the previous desktop system we used. The system still has a lot of bugs that need to be fixed, but it seems as though all of the payroll providers have similar issues. 

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. 

The product they sell you is not the end product. Many things are presented as though they will be included with the system but then require costly upgrades.

Our implementations have been terrible. It's all smoke and mirrors. 

We've been using Ceridian for about eight years, but we switched to the HCM system about four years ago. 

It is used for payroll and human resources applications. The Document Manager module is also used for scheduling and its time clock.

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.

The integrated time clock has provided efficiencies in payroll, as we no longer have to decipher handwritten time sheets and input them into the system.  Statutory holiday pay is also calculated automatically.

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.
