ATOSS Staff Efficiency Suite vs UKG Pro

Likelihood to Recommend

ATOSS is well suited for companies working with different work patterns and on different sites. It is also possible to block the changes for the past, which is really useful if payroll is centralized. The interfaces work with multiple systems as well. But in order to avoid having a huge database, it has to be carefully cleaned from time to time by a system admin, especially if you give access to multiple persons.

We use secondary jobs for many of our employees. I wish there was a way to track the effective dates for rate changes on secondary jobs in the job history. Many of our employees work multiple jobs in different programs across our organization and get paid different rates. When these rates change we have no way to track this in UKG with effective dates. We also have issues when an employee is rehired, the secondary jobs does not update with the new effective date and rates that are set for these jobs.

Taxes - I have struggled in this area from the beginning. Even though I do see improvements over the last two years, there is still room for improvement. Locating QVR and receiving multiple emails when it is ready. Look forward to the fall 2021 release on payment services.
Cases opened are sometimes not addressed as quickly as I would like to see. Again, this could be related to a lot of my cases are about tax errors, or notices from agencies.
BI reports - I used to be able to search and find the reports I want to run, now they do not seem to show up in the search tool. Making more difficult to locate.

Ultipro is by far the very best HCM solution that I've used, and I don't mind acting as a point of contact to anyone that might be interested in hearing from an actual user about my experiences with the suite. Ultipro can pretty much handle anything that you throw at it, while ensuring that what you throw at it is compliant with federal and state regulations. It really is quite simple to use and only gets easier to use the more you use it obviously. I would encourage anyone that is having issues with the suite to partner with their customer success manager to tackle anything that is at any point problematic.

In the 3+ years that we've been live in UltiPro, I believe the core HR/Payroll module went down one time. I don't recall how long it was down for, possibly an hour or two, but thankfully it was not during a payroll week for us so it did not impact us significantly. Other than that, there are some minor outages every once in a while with the Recruiting application, but the communication when those outages occur is very good so you always get status updates.

Pages usually load quickly, once in a while there's an intermittent connectivity issue, but an email notification is sent and it's resolved quickly. Reports complete in a timely manner, even if leveraging the UKG support team to build. Haven't noticed any other integrations being slowed down. We do consistently have reports in the queue to build, and that is why we still have to do [a] double entry with our legacy system until they are replaced.

As I've stated earlier, the support I receive from UKG Pro is world class. I've worked with other vendors in the past, and they simply don't compare. I have had the pleasure of working with, and getting to know, several "Ulti-Peeps" over the years. I've also worked with great ERM's as well!

I love that it's free and flexible. Some of it could have a little more hands-on and have trainers that can answer different scenarios. If the trainer has not been a user, they may not always be able to relate. In most cases they do a great job at answering questions.

UltiPro made it very easy to implement. I implemented UltiPro on my own (as we were short-handed), in addition to my other duties, and was able to stay on track with our original implementation timeline. The process is laid out in a very detailed method. This was by far the most thorough and easiest implementation that I have been through

Ultipro has great scalability overall. The core functionality of Ultipro allows for easy replication, while also providing room for customization that is often required during acquisitions/additions of new business units. The only drawback in scalability, is that by design, Ultipro requires knowledgeable end users and internal resources to execute. Although Ultipro provides immense support and service to its customers in all organizational phases, without the proper internal development, scalability could be hampered. At the same time, this is what I personally love about the product; the ability to work within a DIY environment during expansion while still having access to subject matter experts when needed.

From a cost/time perspective, it has allowed our small HR department of 10 to manage all HR functions for the entire organization without adding additional staff. We can work more efficiently using the same tool and manage all HR activities through the UKG Pro platform.
Streamline different department functions: payroll, HR, employee communications all through one tool.
Positive impact with more employees working from home, supervisors ability to approve/deny schedule requests through time management in and outside of the office has been beneficial to approve and accommodate employee schedule changes.
