We use time, attendance, FMLA, ACA, & Payroll The product meets all our HR & Payroll needs
  • Reporting is probably the best feature of WFR, it is easy to create and modify your own reporting needs while filtering the data and exporting.
  • Using FMLA, ACA, & Points helps us manage our associate data effectively.
  • Self Service
  • Attendance(points) process could use some improvement. Setting up and maintaining I find easier than WFC however we lost some functionality in the automatic processing as well as document generation.
  • FMLA module has a lot of restrictions on setup and has to be handled manually.
  • Not all fields for data entry are effective data which cause some issues in changing associates profiles in a timely manner.
This product was very user friendly and easy to teach associates.

  • biggest ROI is we not longer have to engage for upgrades, all upgrade/enhancements are done automatically
  • All legislative updates are automatically applied
Very user-friendly product, everything is profile based assigned to associates.
once you have a good understanding of how assigning to the associates the flexibility works well.
Reporting and self-service are easy to use.
We have some data feeds, once configured they work well. This is an extra service to get data feed created for you.
Not having to deal with any patches, upgrades, and legislative updates has saved a ton of time and stress.
We came for Kronos WFC, since we have around 400 associates this product was more cost effective for us.

No
Change management was minimal
  • meeting deadlines
Was sometimes hard to get assigned resources to respond in timely manner.
  • Online Training
Pretty good detail, I was also a part of the configuration of the product.
Pretty good online training, you have many how to options and can watch them several times. It can be hard at times to dig through the amount of data online but can usually find what you are looking for. Also you can download documentation for setting up the profiles and policies.
Not to limited has multiple options, can get sometimes confusion on options but testing is simple to work through.
When using implementation team, work with them directly to learn how to configure.
No - we have not done any customization to the interface
No - we have not done any custom code
We have some data feeds for 3rd party benefits.
No, standard works fine for us.
Yes
Eventually you find out in a patch or upgrade that they are fixed, UKG could do a better job informing those who report the issue.
Very helpful when we had to configure rules for California timesheets.
fast response solving most issues with one call, only issue with KGS is when a bug is reported, would like to see a faster update and better communication after it is addressed.
  • Timesheet management
  • Self service

We use Kronos Workforce Ready for all of our employees. Everyone either swipes at a clock or punches in on a computer/phone/tablet. WFR tracks time towards grants, contractual employee hours per pay period, enforces time off for benefited employees and ensures we are in compliance with regulations. WFR is the 3rd version of Kronos we have been on in my 17 years at WCPS.
  • Flexible to our employee diversity.
  • Easy to use from an employees view.
  • Takes away back end system issues by being in the cloud.
  • Being in a shared environment, customization is not allowed.
  • Somewhat slow at times because of browser technology (compared to WFC we had on-site).
  • Implementation CANNOT be rushed through.
Be prepared to make your business processes match what WFR does & not vice versa. WFR is capable of handling nearly everything we can throw at it with some tweaks to our processes. Some things can be kind of customized but the days of paying for it the way you want it are gone, which does save you when it is time to upgrade versions/releases.

  • Put punching in the hand/pocket of every employee we have. No time clocks necessary. No add on pricing to let every employee use mobile.
  • Helped our managers be able to manage from home/off-site.
  • Exporting ANY REPORT to Excel is a great break through for managers.
TOTALLY head-n-shoulders above the competition. This is why we are on our 3rd version of Kronos & don't plan on moving anytime soon. Customer support (KGS) is fast, professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. The documentation of the product is incredible. Online training resources are VAST.
We have 4 different types of employees and each is very unique in how we track their time. WFR was able to handle each one remarkably. The level of detail in which you can customize pay rules, work flows, time off requests, etc. is handled well. The user interface is simple for all levels of users.
WFR has everything I need (and more) to do my job easily. Kronos has really listened to the user community and made the program intuitive for users and administrators. Adding/removing fields from screens (reports) is super easy. Making mass changes to employees is awesome. We have numerous data imports and exports getting data from our other systems. WFR is very integrate-able which helps keep information synced across multiple systems.
The Kronos user community can answer questions w/o having to go to support. Very helpful & willing to share knowledge. Training classes offered during our transition were helpful and well lead. WFR internal documentation is very detailed and clearly laid out with nice visuals and step-by-step instructions. The Kronosworks conference was the best conference I've ever attended. First-hand access to product line managers and industry experts was amazing.

Me (programmer/analyst) and the Payroll manager support, setup, implement, process pay, etc. in WFR. It is very busy at peak pay & approval times each month.
  • Paying hourly staff
  • Tracking time off for benefited staff
  • Paying substitutes
  • Transferring the above 3 to our ERP system
  • Connecting our bus tracking system (Zonar) to WFR. Drivers punch on the bus software & those punches are imported directly into WFR.
  • Importing substitute working days from Absence Management into WFR
  • Importing leave balances that are calculated in our ERP into WFR
  • Importing teacher time off from Absence Management into WFR
  • LOA module for FMLA compliance
  • Tracking hours worked to Grant Funds
  • Allowing ALL staff to punch with mobile & enforcing geo-fencing
WFR has been able to meet our regular functionality and our special cases within the "out of the box" product. Thus far it is great!

Product Technical Account Manager transition
Change management was minimal
A few processes were updated due to the way WFR works. We used the migration as "the reason" to make changes to procedures that were old or just wrong.
  • Lack of testing by our end users.
  • Time to document step by step procedures.
  • Lack of access to the implementation consultant after go live.
DO NOT attempt to go live too quickly. Sales sold us on 100 days from contract signing was doable. We postponed go live 3 times because everything was not ready. We did not have enough time document the new functionality & train end users. Almost 3 months later we are still working through export issues, minor setup issues, adequate time for system admins to get comfortable with the system.
  • Online training
  • in-person training
Our in-person training was a hybrid. Live online training with an instructor. They were very knowledgeable of the product & the area they were training on. I asked several specific questions and if they didn't know the answer immediately they followed up after class.
Lots & lots of training available. Timing was wrong for our organization. We had lengthy down time in the beginning while the implementation consultant setup our system. We did online training then. Difficult to train on a generic system setup that isn't your industry and hard to understand what you are learning how to do w/o actually being in your system. Online training was well documented and the instructors were very knowledgeable.
The system is very intuitive if you use many web applications. There is a VAST library of learning materials & videos available for self paced learning.
WFR is extremely configurable. From imports to exports, how punches are interrupted, how to calculate time, pay rules, time off requests are good but could use more personal customization.
No, we followed the implementation teams guidelines.
Some - we have done small customizations to the interface
With the help of the product specialist we customized the user dashboard with lots of helpful information and almost a 1-stop-shop ability to do everything from one screen. Thus far is has been very helpful to our end users.
No - the product does not support adding custom code
We were able to configure reports to our specifications. Most fields are accessible & you can create a custom field (needed help of the consultant).
No
We have recently upgraded to WFR. The implementation process was well managed. During our conversion from the implementation team to KGS we had a 4 week window of time where we met with a Kronos product support person who specifically reviewed all the key areas of WFR to ensure we were comfortable with the product & how the setup works. It was a very good transition.
  • New User Interface (UI) is very customizable and displays the employees information clearly.
  • Data imports are easy to find documentation for. Import just about anything in the system.
  • Exporting data from ANY report is incredibly easy. Accountants & Managers LOVE this feature.
  • Automated/scheduled imports take some help to setup.
  • Sometimes the amount of customization in the security setup can be overwhelming to know what setting will do what.
Yes
Mobile app interface is identical to the web browser interface. This is a brilliant concept. It allows users to NOT HAVE TO learn 2 ways to use the system. Makes users feel comfortable to use Kronos on any platform.
WFR is very customizable. Only a few things are off limits....surprisingly the most basic screen, the employee time sheet, IS NOT able to be changed. Almost every screen/report users can add/remove fields. Menu setup is fairly easy with the exception multiple versions of a report CANNOT be directly linked to. They are supposed to be updating this in a future release but at the moment it is cumbersome for users to switch to different versions of the report.
Thus far we are able to add as many users as necessary, implement 3 different bargaining units, 5 different types of user groups. Very flexible.
The system seems very stable. Being hosted in the cloud, we are vulnerable to internet speeds and busy times. The system has been down a couple times over the 3 months we have been live, but Kronos resolved the issues very quickly. To have access from a desktop, tablet, time clock, or phone app is one of the best features....users have almost NO REASON they can't clock in.
We have noticed only a few slow page loading issues while being live on WFR. Most pages load as fast or faster than our in-house hosted systems.
  • PowerSchool BusinessPlus (ERP)
  • Absence Management (Frontline)
With our ERP system we upload employee information, hourly employee tasks, & track work to non-paid tasks (like maintenance jobs). From Absence Management (substitute system) we import daily absences & substitute job information. If you can get the data into a .csv format, WFR can import it.
  • No additional integrations planned at this time.
No additional integrations planned at this time.
  • File import/export
  • Single Signon
  • API (e.g. SOAP or REST)
We worked with our integration consultant to setup several imports & exports. Any report can be exported to .csv or .xls so if you can make the screen look like you want, you just made a basic export. Our school district easily setup Single Sign on with WFR. We employed Kronos serves to write an API integration with a 3rd party system.
Pretty easy to setup an import. WFR provides easy to understand (very detailed) templates you can review before setting up the import file.
Definitely work with KGS or a consultant before attempting an import interface. Since this is hosted, rolling back the database is out of the question.
Kronos was very attentive of our need to reduce cost unless it came with a solution that gave us more. Moving to WFR reduced our in house servers while gaining functionality / modules. Sales was quick to answer all our questions. They connected us with several other K12's to hear how they were using WFR.
Our sales rep left after we signed. Then we were bounced between 2-3 others before our area rep was hired. The process was OK, but not ideal. Since then our rep has been attentive but not pushy....maybe a little less active in the process than I'd liked. We didn't get exactly what we were sold/demo'd. The implementation team has done their best to make it work.
I was not involved in the contract signing.
Try to get full access to a test environment to play around with how your situations will work on WFR. Speak to several references, try to find ones in your state so you know they are dealing with the same type workforce / problems / issues on a day to day basis.
Yes
No problems that we are aware of. Some minor changes to the dashboard layout that we didn't anticipate. There was a lot of information on the Kronos Community site but I didn't have time to review everything.
  • Not sure. The product seems relatively the same.

Being used throughout our organization.
  • Electronic time keep has streamlined the payroll process for our organization.
  • Applicant tracking and on-boarding has had positive results.
  • A more universal reports system. Not all available fields are in all reports.
Payroll processing has been a new experience for us. It has its ups and downs.

  • I don't have any information to answer this question.
We felt Kronos fit our organization better.
A solid 8, at times higher, and other times lower on the scale.
From a payroll perspective, Kronos has completely changed my job and streamlined our payroll process.
I wish there was more human contact with the quick training. The majority of my questions can't be answered by searching the community. I find the community is lacking in that respect.
From employees clocking time to our CEO managing employees, our entire company uses Kronos Workforce Ready.

Basically our HR Team. Although all of our branches have staff champions to assist with some functions.
  • Payroll
  • Onboarding
  • Human Capital Management
  • Streamlining payroll
  • Electronic onboarding
  • Managers have access to employee pay rates, PTO, etc.
  • Online Benefit Enrollment
  • FMLA and Personnel Leave Tracking
  • Work Scheduling
We're only a year into our contract but it has been a good change for our organization. If Kronos keeps in front of the competitors and offers a bigger and better product I believe we will continue with Kronos.
Yes
Sage ABRA Suite
  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
  • Positive Sales Experience with the Vendor
Usability and price.
Not sure that we would at this point.
  • Implemented in-house
Yes
Change management was a big part of the implementation and was well-handled
  • Certain earnings codes set up incorrectly that paid our employees incorrectly
  • Not always being on the same page with our implementation specialist
  • Having to repeatedly submit the same reports over the course of a year and the custom reports that were to be created by Kronos were not created.
Overall we made it through....but looking back there are many things that could've made the implementation smoother.
  • Online training
Not applicable.
Sometimes hard to understand without the human touch! Overall we got enough training to get us started. A lot we had to learn through trial and error.
Not applicable as we did online training. After the online training most of what we learned is through trial and error self training.
I'm not familiar in this area.
Sorry I do not
Yes - we have added extensive custom code
Many custom payroll and benefit codes.
None
Yes
No, it is not resolved in a timely matter.
When we first started with Kronos some of our year end fringe reporting was new to Kronos and they worked with us to come up with a solution that would work for us.
  • Payroll Processing
  • Reporting
  • Benefits Enrollment
  • Some on boarding features
  • Payroll corrections
  • I-9 auditing
  • ACA Reporting
Overall it works well for us but there are areas such as ACA reporting that are still very manual to our organization.
None that I know of.
  • Daxko
Not sure.
  • File import/export
It wasn't an easy process.
None
Very personable and knowledgeable.
Still have a relationship.
