    I think Dayforce is a great option for a large and/or Global organization. I do not think it would be the best fit for a very small company or business. It really shines for enterprise organizations with multi-locations. While a small business could use it, I would say it has too many bells and whistles that might feel overwhelming to a smaller organization.

    Well suited for getting your sales team visibility on their efforts, it’s great for showing how and why commissions payout as they do with each deal. Adjustments can also be made very quickly on the backend if needed. It’s straightforward and quick to set up and doesn’t require much training, which is very good for smaller-end businesses and sales forces. It doesn’t work well with more nuanced deals that may age multiple pay points or for larger sales forces, and some custom CRMs will have trouble or be incompatible.

    Pros
    Dayforce
    • Payroll - it shows everything in real time and it runs quickly.
    • People - Having all employee details from the offer letter to W2 information in the same spot.
    • Dayforce Wallet: The on-demand feature is fully integrated with Timesheets and Payroll. What shows in one will be in the other.

    • We don’t have to calculate commissions in Excel anymore! It takes a fraction of the time it used to calculate commissions. Saves about 1-2 days on month end close. I like that it is easy for me and reps to drill down and see the calculations of their payouts. Reps can see calcs all month long instead of having to wait until the end of the month, so acts as a motivator. Sales managers can manage their direct reports better.
    • When I first started using QP, I was not thrilled with the quota attainment reporting for dollars, percent, and team management. I’m glad that they added leaderboards and are working on better reporting. I like the UX and UI of the whole software.
    • I like being able to export the following easily to Excel – resolved payouts for all payouts, payouts by rep, and Ledger (ASC 606) info.
    • Admins can request that reps acknowledge their plans through QP, which helps with compliance and ensures we are in agreement with calculations. I like that they are adding a docusign feature.
    • You can easily adjust earnings if a correction is needed, even after the month is closed. Just make sure you reverse from the end of the process (i.e. undo in ledger, undo the resolved payout, delete the unresolved payout, un-approve the deal).

    Cons
    Dayforce
    • There have been a few instances of users being locked out of Ceridian due to recent upgrades. Not ideal when an employee wants to see their paystub and is suddenly have login issues.
    • Not the best for when an employee is transferred to another country as their employee number is locked to their SIN or SSN. And, we are required to create a new user record with a new employee number for the new country.

    • More workspace roles with the ability to customize what each user is able to do. Currently, there's only member and team manager. The team manager currently has too much power and we want to remove some of the things they're able to do like approve deals.
    • When you sync a deal from the CRM, you can override the earnings but you cannot override the field value you're syncing over. It would be great if that was possible.
    • When you want to exclude a deal, you have to go in the filters and add a rule to exclude the ID. It would be better if there's an option to reject deals in certain paths as an approver.

    Usability
    Dayforce
    I think it's very usable for the employee. I don't think it is as easy for the HR/PR admins - especially if there is an issue. There are so many setup screens that need to be looked at to try to figure out why payroll isn't calculating properly, hours aren't feeding over correctly, or benefits are not calculating properly. For the most part, they can't do their own troubleshooting. The same is true for the managers. Our managers find it cumbersome to go into make any schedule changes after the schedules have been generated.

    Reliability and Availability
    Dayforce
    Dayforce's high availability ensures that our HR processes are supported around the clock, which is critical for a global organization like ours. The platform is cloud-based, offering reliable access from any location at any time, allowing our employees, managers, and HR teams to stay connected regardless of time zones or geographic locations. This level of availability ensures that payroll processing, employee self-service, and real-time data access continue uninterrupted, even during peak periods or unforeseen disruptions. The system’s robust infrastructure minimizes downtime, which is vital for operations that span multiple regions. Additionally, having a centralized platform that’s always available helps keep our teams aligned, ensures compliance, and facilitates timely decision-making across all our locations.

    Performance

    We haven't noticed any slow-down due to the integration of Dayforce WFM with our Ceridian HPL products (HRIS and Payroll). The new HTML view of the timesheets don't load as quickly as the old Silverlight view - however, we have gotten used to the change.

    Support Rating
    Dayforce
    Most of the time the support is great; it's not always super efficient but I always get the help I need. Occasionally it takes a lot longer than we had hoped or get conflicting responses. We had one ticket recently where we were told we would have to pay the service team to support us on the project and then another person called the next day with the solution to our query and was able to find a solution easily. Generally, though, the response is great and they either walk me though how to do something via a Zoom Meeting or they email step-by-step instructions on how to do it and say if I have questions we can set up a meeting to discuss further.

    I ran into some issues with setting up an MRR earning path. Their customer service team was readily available to assist, provide guidance and get their hands on our setup, which made getting this up and running much easier. Also (shame on me), I missed a couple of calls with my CSM, Daniel, but he never got frustrated with my absence. In fact, he was always able to reschedule and was flexible with my schedule — when we were able to connect, he was a major, major help.

    Have a strong internal team. Communicate with your implementation team - they are there to make it work for you. Take the time to really think about how you want the system to work for you - in some cases, you may need to rethink your own business practices to see if you are working harder when the system could do it for you

    Xactly Incent was very difficult to configure. And UI wasn't very friendly. Spiff and CaptivateIQ had a good UI but the learning and coding required was going to be too much for the short window of time before implementation was due. QuotaPath was able to build our comp plans in less than a month so we could focus on the necessary configuration of data in Salesforce.

    Scalability
    Dayforce
    Overall, we are extremely happy with the Dayforce WFM module. Our biggest pain point is concerning the twice annual software upgrades - which is the only reason I haven't rated them as a '10'. Because every customer is configured differently, the upgrades can sometimes have adverse effects on our current configured policies/rules. And although they roll-out the upgraded version in a test environment several weeks before go-live, not all testing is accurate in that environment. Some issues do not present themselves until you are working with live punches.

    Return on Investment
    Dayforce
    • Performance Reviews/Comp used to be handled via paper and tracking/reporting was a nightmare - having all of that in the system is so much more efficient and provides huge ROI
    • Our organization used to have big problems with hiring managers going rogue and hiring positions that aren't approved by Finance - we built an approval workflow in the system that triggers before any req is approved which has completely solved this problem
    • Dayforce Wallet has been a huge perk for our employees - it's heavily used and our crew love it

    • Reduce commission calculations from a full day to minutes
    • Provides both managers and reps with insight into their earnings
    • Highly flexible plan structuring that allowed us to pay based on our objectives
    • While saving money on the elimination of manual commission processing (+/12c days per year) I believe the real payback has been the way it has helped us to better incentivize and motivate our reps
