Dayforce - Customizable and Efficient
Overall Satisfaction with Dayforce HCM
Our whole organization uses Dayforce HCM. We are in the process of implementing the payroll, recruitment & benefits modules. Currently, as a high level overview, the business problems that Dayforce HCM addresses include workflows for form approvals, managing employee data, running timely and accurate reports to pull information driving efficiencies, updating employee records, and managing timesheets and schedules.
Pros
- Reporting - easy to customize & create for the data you need.
- Options for customization - can submit requests for customization more applicable to your organization e.g. creating forms.
- Managing employee records - information in one spot (My HR).
Cons
- Technical functionality e.g. error messages coming up but not knowing what the error is e.g. "An exception has occurred."
- Positive - less transactional tasks in HR for reporting purposes, time can be spent elsewhere, and soon to be more with implementation of Recruitment module.
- Positive - less transactional tasks for Payroll team, and soon to be more with implementation of Payroll & Benefits modules.
Dayforce Feature Ratings
Using Dayforce HCM
1500
4 - Payroll team, two members of the HR team. HR manages the forms, and reporting. Payroll manages employee data and enrolling new hires (no recruitment module implemented yet). The skills required are technological skills and being able to learn new software quickly and to be able to self teach as you use the product to be able to get the most out of it. SQL skills are an asset as this can help with reporting and creating custom forms.
