Procare vs. Workday Workforce Management

It's good for monitoring and communication, but is very clunky when it comes to billing. It's nice that all messages for a student come up in the same conversation, but it would be nice if I could send message to only Administration or only room staff and also receive notification that my message has been read.

Workday Workforce Management has a lot of varying templates that give you a good place to start. You can tailor the if/then statements to your liking. When scheduling meetings, it scans for people on break/lunch/in other meetings and reduces conflicts that can derail an important meeting by someone having to leave early

The UI is a bit outdated and could be a bit more streamlined. There are a lot of clicks for a few items like updating employee information. The training section could be more integrated into the tasks section so users can see they have training right from their home screen.

We have used Sandbox, which was bought out by Procare and will become obsolete. The program had many good features, but in most ways we find that Procare has surpassed Sandbox. The interface as a staff person is very user-friendly, messages are more easily sent to parents, and parents have found this simple to navigate as well

The only other tool I have used was paylocity. Paylocity is a great tool as well and is more user friendly, however it is not for as big of organizations as Workday is. I would say if you are under 1k employees go with Paylocity as it will be less expensive and has everything you need with a user friendly experience. Workday is great for larger orgs but doesn’t have as much of a user friendly experience

Incentivized

• parent communication is more fluid
• changes in daily schedules are quickly communicated
• child security is handled well
• we are able to send documents and receive parent signatures through the program

• Workday Workforce Management has lowered the amount of time team members have to go to HR for questions.
• The approval process for reimbursement is lightning fast.
• I am no longer requested to research my team's different benefit options, which saves me a LOT of time during enrollment periods.
