Overall Satisfaction with Ceridian Dayforce

Ceridian Dayforce is our total platform for payroll and employee benefits. We use the platform as administrators, managers, and employees.

Pros

  • Payroll processing
  • New hires
  • Integration with learning

Cons

  • Benefits
  • Tax Integration with Payroll
  • Open Enrollment
  • Ceridian Dayforce has allowed us to integrate a learning platform versus buying one at a separate company.
My experience with the other companies I have used is very similar. ADP also had a single platform with modules like Ceridian Dayforce has and it worked better with the tax integration. However, Ceridian Dayforce does have a very easy-to-use and simple payroll processing function, which is a bit easier to use than ADP.
Ceridian Dayforce payroll is easy to run. Quick entries make adding unique payroll items and manual checks easy, and totals are easy to review. Imports work particularly well in payroll. Improvement could be made in the benefits module and with the integration between payroll and tax. Tax support for a multi-state company is lacking. The benefits module is not easy to use when you want to make changes to one dependent. All benefits are end-dated and restarted, even if the employee and other dependents are not impacted. We've experienced issues around age-banded benefits that also have guarantee issue thresholds that still do not work after two years on the system.
