I use the Recruiting and Onboarding sections the most, but I also have some use of BI, User Administration, and pretty regular use of Standard Reports as well. As an organization we utilize the platform for benefits, time management, payroll, recruiting and onboarding, BI, and reporting. I am not involved in payroll and time management. We also use UKG Pro Learning for our organizational online training needs.

Our company moved to UKG Pro in 2019. This was our first successful joint HR and Payroll solution. UKG Pro streamlined our practices in so many ways. We were able to have one system of record to store and maintain employee information. We were able to streamline our resources, which allowed us to have more time to focus on other HR initiatives. We transitioned our company from paper forms, to online workflows which reduced time and limited document loss. We were able to add additional modules to our core HR and Payroll product, and fully integrated performance management, learning & development, benefits, and compensation management. UKG is always updating their product so that it is the best on the market and we really felt that. The system was easy to use and has a modern look and feel. I loved my time using UKG Pro and would suggest it to anyone looking for a new HRIS.

We initially chose UKG as our HRIS when we decided to leave our PEO in 2020. It allowed us to effectively bring all HR functions in house including payroll, compliance, time tracking, document storage, recruiting, onboarding, leave tracking, etc. We have 600+ employees at over 120 locations all over the USA. UKG allows us to manage our employee data and care for our team members.

First and foremost, we needed a solution that could grow with us. We were likely a bit small when we signed with UKG, but have since doubled our size and it was needed for our growth success. It offers one integrated solution for our US and Canadian based employees. One of the first things it tackled was an electronic onboarding offering - no more printed sheets with physical signatures. Next up was recruiting automation. Then came open enrollment/life event efficiency. This tool is integral to our success.

We use the core system as well as UTM (UKG Time Management) and Onboarding. We use it for onboarding, process hires, workflows, performance reviews, timekeeping, payroll, reporting, dashboarding as well as many other HR functions. We use it to help our processes in HR become more efficient and accurate.

We use UKG Pro as our HRIS and Payroll system. Over the years we have added Onboarding, Recruitment, Talent Management, Workforce Management, and most recently Document Manager. We are looking to implement UKG Learning and UKG Voice to have a fully integrated system. UKG is our system of record for employee information, payroll processing and information, performance reviews, job competitions, employee file management and more. The system is very configurable to meet individual needs and the Ultimate Community is a wealth of knowledge and resources.

I mainly use UKG in recruitment, onboarding and Performance Management.
My Company has high volume of hiring across Canada, UKG recruitment and onboarding is able to facilitate the process in a simple and efficient way. We involved many hiring managers and sections, but HR can monitor the process in an integrated platform.

With our constant growth and being in so many cities UKG streamlines all of our business needs. We have grown into our UKG processes and explore more growth in UKG each year to maximize our associate's experience. The more they can utilize UKG with our associates the better we are.

I was part of the original project team that implemented UKG Pro (then UltiPro) for our company in 2017 to 2018. We were also a beta customer for the Benefits Prime (now Benefits Administration) system. We have since added additional modules to our platform, including Performance Management, Compensation Management, LMS (integrated with LinkedIn Learning), and UKG Dimensions (in progress now). We have integrated UKG Pro with our SuccessFactors succession planning system and our iCIMS Recruiting and Onboarding system.
UKG Pro manages all of our associate HR, Payroll and Benefits data seamlessly and integrates our multiple platforms that I support as part of the IT Corporate Applications department. We have found that the system is easy to navigate and use for our business customers, and also provides excellent training and documentation materials for customers.

We use UKG Pro as our HRMS, we use it from Recruiting to Onboarding and throughout the entire employee tenure with the company, and we also pay our employees through UKG Pro. UKG Pro help maintains and manage our employee data, and we build and run reports for employee analytics. It's important to have a centralized cloud solution our employees can enter and update their information with ease.

We currently have 13 component companies on [the] UKG Pro Platform and three different payroll frequencies.

I use UKG Pro to process payroll for our employees and independent contractors. We use UKG Pro for our HR systems to store our employee information. We use WFM to log in employee hours and use Time off system. In 2023 we will begin to use the Performance tool, for our annual reviews. This feature also includes goal, and goal setting to monitor progress. We also UKG to post company bulletins and handbooks, any information that is useful to the employee. We also use reporting system to pull reports needed each day to assist us with Payroll or HR needs.

UKG Pro is our Human Capital Management system. It carries our employee data through the whole life cycle: recruiting, onboarding, payroll, performance, benefits... We run reports through Cognos Analytics (BI). UKG Pro has pre-built many reports that are ready to use, and some of which need little modification to suit our specific needs.

We utilize several UKG modules including Pro, Compensation, Recruiting, Onboarding, and the LMS. We implemented 2 of those this year -- clearly, we love using UKG or we would not have signed up for those modules. UKG makes it really easy for us to manage our employee data in a single system, rather than having to make changes in several systems.

My company currently uses quite a few of the UKG modules. UKG addresses our recruiting issues by seamlessly taking the candidate from the first point of contact all the way through the employment stage. We have implemented the performance evaluation module which helped our company go from an old excel spreadsheet review to a streamlined review process in UKG. We have leveraged the ability to configure fields to meet our unique company needs.

I use it to do my timecard, any pay inquiries including paystubs and to handle administrative tasks like changing bank accounts for direct deposits.

Furthermore, we use the site to carry out mandatory trainings per quarter and keep track on all trainings. This helps the company to be able to handle most HR inquiries and trainings in one consolidated website that is very easy to use.

To my knowledge, we utilize UKG for Time Management, Pay, Time Off/PTO, UKG Pro Learning for Trainings and I believe we will soon start internal goals and reviews through UKG. I utilize UKG Pro as an employee that is not in the HR department so I do not see some of the implementation and back-end reporting. However, I think its ability to be all encompassing is a quality in a software tool that all businesses need.

We use UKG Pro for onboarding, electronic document acknowledgement and tracking, timekeeping, payroll, paid time off tracking and ACA tracking. It has helped us cut down on the paper since everything is electronic and everything is centralized so information is available to anyone in the organization who needs it. The security set up allows us to control who is able to see what in the system. The self service functionality allows us to have the employees and/or managers enter information into the system instead of sending it to payroll to enter for them which helps with accountability and workload for the payroll department. We are able to set up workflow so that we can monitor changes that are made in the system to ensure accuracy.

We use UKG Pro as an HCM for payroll, recruiting, onboarding, performance reviews, and benefits adminstration. By using UKG Pro as the system of record for all aspects of employment, it streamlines processes and reduces duplication of data.
