Overall Satisfaction with Dayforce
We operate three different divisions, in three different states, each with their own company policies and procedures, as well as unique state requirements, making our HR/Payroll/Time/Benefits processes complex. Dayforce has helped us to streamline and customize our processes and policies within the platform, where no other system has before. We have control over the configuration of our own system, and do not need to call Dayforce when we need or want to make a change to suit our business, allowing us to act more quickly to meet business demands.
Pros
- Nearly unlimited customization. Other systems you can customize but only within a specific set of system parameters. With Dayforce those parameters do not exist and we can create a system that is entirely unique to us.
- Payroll is more thorough than other systems, and we've already caught potential compliance issues that our previous system did not, allowing us to take action to mitigate risk to the organization
- Employee engagement is also more productive with Dayforce. Our previous system did not have an internal employee job board, and employees didn't often apply for other opportunities in the organization. With Dayforce, we have already seen an uptick in employee applications to open positions.
Cons
- As we are still new to the system and learning, I can really only speak to one area that we've noticed. You often times have to go to multiple different areas to make one change. For example, with recruiting and adding a document, you often have to go to multiple sections of the system to create the topic, upload the document, assign it, attach it, and publish it. This could be streamlined to all being done in a single area.
- The system has enabled us to reduce reliance on paper for personnel change requests and job requisitions, and the approval process and turn around time as we no longer have to wait for leaders to be in the office to sign a physical form.
- Productivity has been significantly increased when processing payroll. It used to take us two days to process payroll for all three divisions. With Dayforce, our divisional payroll is combined, so now we process payroll one time, for all divisions, and we are able to process within a couple of hours instead of days.
- ADP Workforce Now, Kronos Workforce Dimensions / UKG Dimensions (discontinued), SAP Enterprise Portal, Paycor, Paychex Flex, Paycom and Workday Cloud Platform
By having a single application we have seen an increase in our efficiency and an accuracy in our data. Our previous system had third party modules for many systems and they didn't do a good job "talking" to each other. Our data was often incorrect, charging employees the wrong benefits amounts, not updating data correctly or it not feeding to payroll at all. Often times, when we call customer support we would have to get transferred because they would say its not their platform and they would have to transfer us to someone that specializes in that.
