Pros

“It is good value for money, tracks time easily, helps keep track of schedule and helps in editing the schedule, make request or changes to the schedule, etc.”

Malika K.

CEO

“At the time our organization used iCIMs with UKG my role was as primarily an Onboarding Manager, but because of my systems, reporting and analytics background I was often asked to pull reporting for our [sensitive content hidden] and this is where my experience with UKG was gained.”

Lisa C.

Onboarding Manager

“What I liked most about UKG Ready is that it combines multiple HR functions into one centralized system, making daily operations much more efficient.”

Swaminathan S.

HR Assistant

Pros

“It also offers great flexibility for employees, who can clock in through mobile apps with geofencing, web browsers, or physical biometric kiosks.”

Gift S.

Human Resources Clerk

“ADP Workforce Now is a highly reliable, all-in-one HR platform that does a fantastic job of streamlining everything from payroll and tax filing to benefits administration and time tracking. Because it houses employee data in one centralized hub, it eliminates the headache of jumping between different systems and drastically reduces manual data entry.”

Allyson B.

“The ability to easily access payroll, tax documents, time-off balances, and other HR-related information enables self-service and reduces the need to contact HR, helping to minimize administrative bottlenecks and improve efficiency.”

Caroline M.

Value-Based Solutions Manager

Cons

“It is not compatible with our current payroll system, so we have to do manual work to process employee payroll, which adds extra steps and time to the process.”

Will R.

SR. HR Operations Specialist

“Unable to tab between fields in some pages which causes issues when completing timesheets from scratch”

Kevin W.

Owner

“The notifications are annoying as they ping me about everything (no matter what) as long as it is related to Mo. And I always get confused with the "boost" button and I'm not sure if I'm using it correctly and also occasionally the application will crash when I attempt to load a picture into it.”

Sergei O.

Co-Founder

Cons

“Setting up custom approval workflows or building specialized reports via the custom report builder is a cumbersome, click-heavy process that often requires a steep learning curve or direct intervention from ADP support”

Brennan N.

Insurance Agent

“The biggest complaints about ADP Workforce Now center on clunky reporting, inflexible customization, and frustrating customer support, and it doesn't have pto hours updated”

Tamia J.

Administration

“It requires a fair number of clicks and time to manage and doesn't visually show performance as well as other available performance management platforms.”
