Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why

Switching from ultimate software to Dayforce
It helps with state tax withholding, healthcare eligibility, and overtime policies.
April 27, 2022
Canadian user
They are imbedded in rules. If I have issues, with new codes, support tells me how to set them up quickly.
April 19, 2022
High potential if implemented properly
I think it allows for all these things as long as it is set up correctly. Currently, one employee's time card shows their schedule as being Wed-Sun which is not true at all, but rather should have been Mon-Fri all along. This seems as if it cannot be fixed.
April 13, 2022
Ceridian Dayforce HCM saved us time and money!
Dayforce handles a large volume of our Federal and state tax filings. Our OT policies are easily maintained in the payroll system. And the configuration possibilities allow for our team to update policy to align with our union contracts quickly.

Ceridian Dayforce - changing our payroll processes
Compliance with withholding taxes.
April 04, 2022
Enables better employee and manager self service
Ceridian Dayforce enables us to ensure proper withholding for federal payroll taxes (including Social Security and Medicare), state payroll taxes, and local payroll taxes.
Controls in place enable us to maintain Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance and have allowed us to demonstrate this compliance, as necessary, in both internal and external audits.

HR perspective
It is easy to pull reports and will cause errors if something is not in compliance. Although I was not in the compliance department I know that it was helpful and has changed our numbers after signing with Ceridian Dayforce.
November 24, 2021
Challenging implementation, but the end result is extremely useful
Compliance was a major decision factor in our move to Dayforce. We saw tremendous value in Dayforce’s ability to put in place automated leave calculation, overtime tracking, alerts for sick/family leave law changes.

Dayforce review
Federal and Provincial Tax was getting annually updated by Ceridian Team. Updating Employment Insurance Rate and WCB Rate was very simple.
October 28, 2021
This Can't Go Wrong!

Dayforce - great employee resource!
It is so helpful with compliance when it comes to benefit enrollment. now everyone who is benefit eligible can login to their portal and complete their options online. previously we had everyone fill out a paper form and turn it into their human resources and then they would have to scan them into our corporate office. no more!
September 22, 2021
Benefits of Dayforce
Automated taxes, overtime, and benefits deductions.
September 19, 2021
Dayforce is awesome!
Ceridian Dayforce is really great at making sure we are compliant. Especially during COVID times, we really have relied on Ceridian Dayforce doing the bulk of the work to ensure that we are receiving things like FFCRA credits.
September 09, 2021
[In My Opinion,] Run the Other Way!
[I believe] it makes a lot of it more difficult.
September 08, 2021
Ceridian Dayforce - Automate your payroll processes!
Dayforce automatically calculates all our pay for unionized employees based on rules outlined in the collective agreement. We simply import raw hours and then validate the output. It also allows for quick entries and off cycle payments in the even something was missed on the import (missed time, days off, etc.).
It automatically calculates dedications for taxes, cpp, e/i, benefits, and more.
It took a long time to get setup the way we needed, but it was well worth the effort. The day to day savings are significant.

May the Dayforce be With You.
[Ceridian Dayforce helps enable compliance in the following ways:]
- Special pays (restricted stock, employee stock plan, deferred stock, etc)
- Taxes: we are in many states, several with locals
- Tax service pays and files taxes on time.
- Easily process amendments.
- Automatic compliance notifications and updates are invaluable.
August 30, 2021
Good, but could be better
I know that Dayforce has a strong focus on compliance, but I don't deal with that directly.
August 02, 2021
New-ish to Dayforce
Dayforce offers automated tax compliance based on employee home and work addresses. The jurisdictions are automatically applied and withholding is automatic and guaranteed to be in compliance. This was a headache we had with a previous system, especially where reciprocal agreements come into play. The only issue we've run into is with Pennsylvania local withholding - Dayforce does not allow for courtesy withholding of local jurisdictions. Our employees are used to seeing both their local worked-in and lived-in taxes withheld, but Dayforce only withholds the worked-in jurisdiction's taxes. They are in compliance with PA Act 32 but this has been a minor pain point with our employees.
July 27, 2021
Great, but could improve tax knowledge/support
Ceridian has helped us to maintain compliance with multistate payroll laws, multiple variations on paid holidays per location, overtime laws in different states, administration for union employees vs. non-union employees, and benefits eligibility and tracking, and well as year-end mandated tasks such as OSHA and PPACA reporting.
July 21, 2021
Fantastic Company
Enabling all of the compliance portions of HR/Payroll, we enrolled into their features that takes care of that for us!
July 01, 2021
Ceridian Dayforce
The system does a great job at automatically updating our local and state taxes when an employee changes their address or when we update their work location. The system also helps us be proactive by tracking employee policy acknowledgements and certification expiration dates which is required for our organizations accreditation.
Ceridian Dayforce allows us to track overtime and ensure our hourly employees are getting the breaks they need.
June 28, 2021
Dayforce Review
[Ceridian] Dayforce has allowed us to set specific rules for hiring and scheduling that has increased our compliance. For example, the scheduler has a feature that allows a required skill to be uploaded before allowing an associate to work. We have utilized this for food handler permits. When the associate does not have a permit or if the permit is expired, the system will not allow the associate to be scheduled.
