Workday is simple to use and very intuitive. It made training new employees simple and they were able to be caught up quickly. I don't have much bad to say about this product, as it definitely made our day-to-day operations more smooth and easier to swallow. I am happy to endorse it for any company that could use it.

Workday Professional Services Automation is a great tool that holds all of our company files, our HR and onboarding information, payroll, and benefits. I love how easy it is to access any of these files and how much time it saves us. It's just as easy to update any of the information too. I also like that we have a full project lifecycle from start to finish because it helps us see what is going on with the project and where it is in the process.

Workday Professional Services Automation addresses our problem for remote access, scheduling time, and being able to download tax forms. Employees in this new world of work are looking for the flexibility of being remote or hybrid, which means not going into the office to punch in and out or speak with HR to get their tax forms.

I primarily used Workday as a central location for all things HR-related. I didn't manually have to clock in or out, but there was a time-keeping feature. It also tracked all of my vacation and sick hours and allowed me to request vacation/sick time within the portal. It also had all of my pay information and kept track of historical salary information (merit increases, bonuses, etc.). It also was extremely helpful in finding people within our organization. It had an organization tree, so you could find individuals as well as teammates on their team and supervisor/bosses, along with contact information such as their work email and/or phone number, so it was really easy to find anyone within the organization and anyone else associated with them if you needed it. Workday also housed some information about benefits and what I had enrolled in for that fiscal year.

Effective business solution with excellent workflow approval and valuable platform for easy business operations and product development platform. The easy-on data analytics in real-time via Workday Professional Services Automation is beneficial and very reliable project management software. The project planning and budgeting and even resource planning of the product are highly recommendable.

Workday Professional Services Automation has been a great product to our organization and helps manage the whole project lifecycle from start to finish. A holistic view of staffing needs and excellent project and resources management capabilities that help to automate, forecast, and budget projects easily. Great product that lets us bill for everything from start with the best expense and time-tracking functionalities.

Depending on the state you reside in determines the navigation of Workday. In the state of California, it was a bit more difficult due to the tough labor laws, however, that was easy enough to navigate as well, there were just more details that were needed. In most states, you could simply state you had worked 8 hours, etc. In California, login and out along with lunches were required punches. Not a big deal just more time-consuming is all.

It is the heart of our Human Capital Management. It provides complete automation for all processes from search and selection to onboarding. It also provides Leave of Absence, performance management, benefits management, and all day-to-day employee operations so that they can be managed with excellence. Especially during pandemic circumstances, paperless processes and automated workflows helped a lot during an onboarding period.

I used this application in general for clocking in and out of shifts. This application is where all my information was stored towards my job including W2s , payment information , contacts information , other important information needed and necessary for the company and my knowledge. This application without a doubt was one of my favorite applications to use because it never let me down for any reason. Here we also took any test implemented by the company and always worked great.

Workday is used to automate onboarding documentation, people management documentation and employment verification information. Workday houses our employee personnel files. All team members have full access their documents, status or requests from the supervisors, etc. It also holds all payroll information, benefits, etc.

Expansive online HR and payroll platform. Currently used to process payroll including salary changes and additional compensation, manage employee info, onboarding (completing new employee forms), generating employee/payroll related reports, time and absence tracking (clocking in and out, requesting time off, etc.), and tangentially used in relation to benefits and performance review.

My organization currently uses Workday for most of our Human Resource related functions. It houses all of our personal employee information related to our roles. The most important aspect of Workday currently for our company is in relation to our internal review process, as well as goal setting and assessment.

We primarily use Workday as an HRIS. For me specifically, I primarily use it to request time off work and view my vacation time balances. I'm able to send my requests to management and see when they approve the request. The main problem that it addresses is visibility into PTO and Sick time so I can see my balance and request the time needed.

We have transitioned to using it as our HRIS- timekeeping, corrective action, performance, and goal setting, and are looking to add more capabilities in the future. This was to replace PeopleSoft which was outdated and a little clunky with a dated interface and several different sites whereas on workday we just have a central location for everything.

I use Workday Professional Services Automation to update candidate and employee information. I use it for mostly applications and employee informational data. The problems of paper files being used is solved through using the software as a way to store information regarding pay, applications, and data.

I have had multiple experiences with using the Workday Professional Services Automation software; as a consultant, in a large Fortune 500 company, and most recently when the small FinTech company I was working for was acquired by Nuveen/TIAA. The software was used as a one-stop-shop at Nuveen/TIAA for all things HR-related: payroll, benefits administration, recruiting, performance evaluation processing, etc. Workday is a powerful tool that is a good fit for large, multi-national corporations. In my opinion, it is a more technologically advanced/flexible version of the Oracle suite I utilized in roles 10+ years ago.

Workday Professional Services Automation provides many features in one tool, like work hours tracking against different projects, expense tracking and approval process for expenses, and leave approval and leave balance feature. It also helps with the cost and client chargeability. Overall this is one place to manage many work-related items, including new hiring as well.

In our organization, Workday Professional Services Automation is a tool focused on the individual control of each employee. There we can upload our personal and contact data, receive payment receipts, upload our skills, see our salary changes, claims with HR, manage and monitor our KPIs, as well as information on our benefits as an employee.

Workday is used company-wide at our organization. Every employee is managed in the Workday system. It is a fantastic platform for managing employee pay, benefits, and professional relationships. Workday makes it easy for employees to access their "human resources" in a self-serve manner. This is a great time-save by cutting down on simple communications between employees and their managers/HR.
