Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Workday has increased the exposure over our company recently. We initially used for feedbacks, to check compensation, user profile for HR purposes and to set year goals. Now we increased the usability by adding the Time appointment module. Before, we used to have Netsuite for time appointment, and now, Workday has assumed the lead. The usability is seamless, easy to understand and user friendly

Pros

  • Provide clear view of what you need and look for
  • User friendly
  • Clean visibility, not a platform that has too much information to look for

Cons

  • On time appointment, you can't pre-fill dates for the week, you need to fill dates on present or past only.

Return on Investment

  • Help me to address my goals for the year
  • Keep track of my objectives
  • Help to understand my compensation
