Overall Satisfaction with Ceridian Dayforce
We use Dayforce for almost all aspects of our business - the biggest modules we utilize are People, Payroll, Recruiting, Learning, Benefits, Performance, and Compensation. Having an all on one system allows us to be consistent between all aspects of our HRIS function. We try to utilize the system in all aspects of the employee life cycle (from attracting talent, to making an offer, to hiring, creating merit increases, etc etc). We also heavily utilize the reporting aspects of the system to ensure that we are in compliance and doing the right thing with all of the previously mentioned modules. As a large employer it can be very difficult to keep things consistent and visible across the organization - using one platform for the vast majority of our HR functions allows us to more effectively do that
- Payroll/Pay Policies are extremely effective
- Reporting is strong, it's rare that I hit walls
- Performance/Compensation are clear and easy to use for our employees
- Ceridian Tax Services - sometimes they feel a bit inefficient
- Learning has made some nice strides but because it is an outside integration you can feel its limitations
- Schedules module is more manual than we would like
- Performance Reviews/Comp used to be handled via paper and tracking/reporting was a nightmare - having all of that in the system is so much more efficient and provides huge ROI
- Our organization used to have big problems with hiring managers going rogue and hiring positions that aren't approved by Finance - we built an approval workflow in the system that triggers before any req is approved which has completely solved this problem
- Dayforce Wallet has been a huge perk for our employees - it's heavily used and our crew love it
The vast majority of modules in the system have very in depth datasets that you can report on. We utilize this in almost every aspect of the system that we utilize. Being able to have a constant data trail has made compliance an absolute breeze for our organization. We can very quickly present what we are doing in a few quick clicks
Though we aren't using Performance Management yet - we use Dayforce heavily to make headcount decisions for our organization. The Recruiting Module/People Module/Reporting Module all work in harmony to ensure that we have a constant pulse on our current headcount, what we need, and what we need to fill. Using that info allows us to make informed hiring decisions
The same frame of logic also occurs in performance/comp, we have a constant view of employee job performance and make informed decisions based on that data

In past lives I have worked at organizations who stitch multiple software solutions together via an integration - it is an absolute nightmare and is prone to breaking. Having everything in one place allows the data to flow under one roof which simplifies the whole process. It also creates a much easier platform for our crew - nobody wants to remember URL's/Passwords for five different sites
