Overall Satisfaction with Workday Human Capital Management
In any organization, a HCM software is required to track and manage its workforce. Unlike other HCM software, Workday is much more capable than just tracking and managing the organization’s workforce. At the company, Workday is utilized as the main portal for all employees, whether it is for compensation to retrieve payslips, benefits for benefits election, reimbursement, or even absence to request time-off and leave. On the other hand, from the HR side, Workday allows the HR team to retrieve any data that is needed and critical to the business at anytime via report writer. For instance the number of employees in each department or the total amount of reimbursement for each department. Workday also supports the creation, edit, and deletion of new supervisory organization (team, region, company, etc) and allow the admins to easily perform changes to employee data to accurately keep track of employee data so that it is most up-to-date.
- Workday is easy-to-use for end-users due to its simple interface.

- Easily and accurately track and maintain employee data.
- Easily allow the HR team to pull data and information through report writer.
- Workday Studio allows Workday to be integrated with other platforms, leading to automation and time-savings using Workday as the main source of truth.
- Even though Workday is easy-to-use for end-user, negative feedback on Workday generally revolve around the interface that doesn't look modern.
- Even through Workday allows unlimited configuration, learning one Workday module can take up to 2 years. Workday configuration is not as simple as other HCM softwares.
- Even though Workday provides learning course, it is extremely expensive.
- Even though Workday has Workday Support to support errors, issues, and bugs on Workday, Workda Supports tend to be kind of slow when compared to other softwares support.
- Workday is extremely expensive when compared to other HCM softwares.

- Report Writer (creating reports that provide insights)
- BP Architecture (creation of business flow such as who approve what, bp architecture also allows complex creation of business flow such as if A happens B will approve, but if C happens D will approve instead)
- Core HCM allows an accurate tracking and maintenance of employees. Workday Reporting allows management to see all data related to the employee.
- Workday Studio integration capabilities have reduced more than 1,000 labor hours in one year.
