Overall Satisfaction with Ceridian Dayforce
We use Ceridian Dayforce across our whole organization, and we encourage employees to use the mobile app. I would say that we use 90% of the modules offered in Dayforce. Dayforce is a one-stop-shop with all of our employee information in one system, we do not have to enter duplicate information into different systems. Saving time in every department, across the board. For example; our Managers can easily see TAFW requests, create employee schedules and review their employee's Timesheets. When they approve the TAFW, it automatically shows up in the employee's schedule and/or Timesheets.
And for our HR and Payroll team, if we update an employee's file to show that they are on a leave of absence, the system automatically begins calculating benefit arrears. When the employee returns, the system then begins deducting the arrears from the employee's paychecks until the arrears are caught up. We don't have to create spreadsheets to track this information and we can trust the information.
- Dayforce is fully integrated, a one-stop-shop! All employee information is in one system and moves quickly throughout it. This is particularly helpful when a wage change goes through in the middle of a pay period or when completing a retro wage change. You can see the change, including the retro change, right in the employee's Timesheet, which automatically feeds over into Payroll.
- Dayforce makes benefits enrollment and annual open enrollment simple. The system remembers what benefit programs the employee has participated in and the employee's beneficiary information.
- Dayforce is very customizable. You can create shift rotations, pay policies and attendance management policies based on the needs of your company.
- Dayforce does not have a paycheck calculator and it would be great if it did!
- Dayforce could do better with basic reporting, ie: 401(k), garnishments, etc.
- Dayforce allows up to program state-specific payroll policies, for example, Missed Meal Periods and the 5th-hour rule. By using the set up of this policy correctly, we were able to track and cut back on this direct cost to California plant.
- Dayforce Payroll allows for verifications which prevent mistakes. This keeps our payroll accuracy rate above industry standards and keeps our employee's happy.
We are able to utilize Dayforce benefit management for new hire and annual enrollment, retirement enrollment and create EDI's for our benefit vendors. This allows us to make sure that we are in compliance with our plans.
And if I feel that something is off, I can export the information and verify it separately if needed.
