Beeline Extended Workforce Platform vs. Kronos Workforce Dimensions / UKG Dimensions (discontinued)

Works well for time reporting in the staffing world. Allows multiple resources to see time worked on specific projects. Lets managers also view time spent and approve those hours to ensure seamless invoicing to proper projects for time worked.

UKG Dimensions will work well with a company size of [fewer] than 10,000 employees. Once you hit over 10K, you start to notice that batch jobs will time out, clocks will perform slower or become unresponsive requiring manual restarts and the employee demographic will take hours to complete. Will the vendor has on their roadmap to increase the performance of the product, it is not at that point.

• The user interface is much better than other VMS's (ie IQnavigator).
• Faster 'in effect' time.
• It is easy to create reports.
• Being able to jump into the other view points of different users is fantastic. Especially with manager timesheet approvals.

Incentivized

• rule analysis- the rule analysis in this product is much cleaner and easy to follow compared to WFC
• The level of granularity on FAPs is very helpful for configuring access compared to other platforms
• UI is very easy to follow and intuitive

Incentivized

• Finding existing candidates who have profiles within Beeline
• Adding/removing/editing specific job categories to candidates - I often had to create two separate profiles for the same person when submitting them to different jobs within Beeline
• Beeline integration with third-party Applicant Tracking Systems (such as Bullhorn ATS)

Incentivized

• You got to have a solution for employees with multiple jobs
• Need to allow customers to easily access your integration technology
• Your business structure is too restrictive and making the application far less flexible
• Your professional service team needs a lot of improvement, especially in the execution part
• Need to have a proven and working interface for business structure automation.

I think Beeline is one of the best tools, I like Fieldglass the best but beeline comes in a close 2nd. Beeline is easy to navigate around for most things, it is a little difficult to find some information however most of the time it is pretty easy and nice to use

UKG Dimensions is very user-friendly from an employee and supervisor standpoint. It is very robust on an admin level and can get complicated; however, you can do so many things with it that is outweighs the complexity. The security for UKG Dimensions needs to be revamped however. It is very cumbersome and not user-friendly.

Happy with overall support from the representative. They do a great job!

• Kronos Workforce Dimensions a new product, and it has a lot of scope for improvement, with future releases. One of the best tools to perform time tracking.
• Their support team is very knowledgeable, and their SLA's are pretty tight. Any query raised would be addressed in a few hours.
• Timeclock configuration can be complicated; however, their support team knows the processes and guidelines.

Again, I didn't select Beeline, our clients did. But in comparing these products from a user perspective, I would rank Beeline about on par with the rest. IQNavigator and Fieldglass are probably the best ones, and Covendis is by far the worst. The rest are fairly similar, and all have many of the same issues. Most companies don't take the time (or the VMS doesn't allow them) to simplify the software for use. There are always a ton of unnecessary and unused features that are required to fill out, or require clicking through, and it honestly wastes a ton of time. I will say, though, that I have used Fieldglass for more than one client, and it is the easiest, every time.

UKG Dimensions provides an enterprise-wide integrated suite for timekeeping, staff scheduling, and clocks. We were an existing Workforce Central customer for timekeeping only and were interested in providing holistic experience between staff scheduling and timekeeping. In addition, [UKG] Dimensions established a great foundation for transitioning our organization from departmental focused scheduling solutions to enterprise.

• Accuracy is the biggest positive.
• Vision of project budget used.
• Status of project.
• Manager approval of hours worked.
• Seamless billing of invoices off time worked.

• It is neutral. We enjoy having somewhat of a seamless system between HR, PR, and timekeeping.
• When a person uses the Reset Password link, the system sends the user an email with a link to set their password. Then when the person logs in with their new password, the system forces the user to change their password a second time. This second password change is unnecessary and creates confusion.
