Peter S.

Senior Finance Associate, FP&A

Pros

“Its greatest strengths are its high system stability with minimal bugs and a seamless Scheduling and Time Clock feature that simplifies daily operations for employees. While it is a premium investment, the Value for Money is clear through the elimination of disconnected third-party tools and the high level of professional Customer Support provided.”

Swaminathan S.

ERC Sr Associate

“The absence calendar is especially useful because it provides a clear visual overview of time off, helping employees request leave and allowing managers to quickly see team availability.”

Waghlis T.

Software Dev Manager

Cons

“The most difficult and time consuming part of commissions is the length of time it takes to review my commissions - 6 to 10 hours - Our commisssions are set up on Accounts we upsell, or add onto. ”

Lee B.

Account Manager

“Although I didn't discover any drawbacks to using Performio, I have found its interface to be a little complicated.”

Tareq O.

Sales Engineer

“Submitting updates can be cumbersome, and there is limited visibility around status of updates or alerts when changes are processed.”

Evan H.

Director, Partnerships

Cons

“The main drawbacks of Workday HCM are its steep learning curve and the complexity of its back end configuration, which often requires specialized training or expensive consultants.”

RAUL M.

software support

“Reporting, not clear on trended worker data source and not easy to combine data and data sources and not easy to make dashboards for higher management, often we need to go to powerbi solution which means exporting sensitive data.”

Sofia P.

HR IT

“One thing I wish were better is how sometimes navigation feels a bit unintuitive in Workday HCM — simple tasks like finding the right leave field or switching between views can take more clicks than I’d expect.”
