Overall Satisfaction with Ceridian Dayforce

Ceridian Dayforce is the core Human Capital Management (HCM) and workforce management (WFM) application used across our entire organization, spanning 13 different countries. We also use it for Payroll processing in the USA and Canada, and timesheet recording for payroll in other countries. It is the single Performance Management tool for the organization as well.
  • Fantastic reporting capabilities for HR
  • Excellent entitlement tracking when configured properly
  • Fairly intuitive user interface
  • Application support seems to be taking longer and longer.
  • Application training is improving, but has room for further growth.
  • Positive ROI in getting all employees into a single HR system.
  • Positive ROI on the customizable properties for each employee permits tracking data not native to Ceridian Dayforce.
It is so much easier to have a single source of truth for HR-related data elements. It greatly simplifies not just the HR processes but also integration with other upstream (ADMS) and downstream (LMS and recognition) systems.

Did implementation of Dayforce go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Dayforce again?

Yes

Ceridian Dayforce is great for an SMB (Small to Medium Business), and I have successfully used it in an organization exceeding 6000 employees. The core HR functionality is great regardless of country, as I am currently deployed in 13 widely disparate countries. The capabilities for managing the different entitlements by country are second to none, but do require an excellent understanding of how to configure them appropriately - that is biting us now as we further expand our footprint, but that is an organizational issue and not on Ceridian.
