Overall Satisfaction with Kronos Workforce Ready

We use it for scheduling purposes and switching shifts. It is used by the whole company. It addresses problems with scheduling, payroll, time off requests. It is very easy to use and there have been some nice adjustments in the last year to make it more user friendly. I like using it and I think it has been a helpful tool.
  • Scheudling
  • Payroll
  • Time off Request
  • Could be more intuitive
  • Faster processing
  • Helps with scheduling
  • Increases organization
  • Can be more user friendly.
I am not sure. I was not the decision maker for this product. I will say it is easy to use and I like using it as an employee. I think that it is clear and to the point and allows for minimal effort which is helpful for the work environment.
Kronos does a very good job of meeting the unique needs of managing scheduling for a large group of people. The daily schedules are helpful to keep everything on track and allow for more time management and greater organization as a whole. This has proven successful for many of our teams over the last few years.
The daily schedules are easy to use, printable, and show which individual is working at a given time, for how long, what their tasks are, who they are and increases productivity and organization. It allows for greater visibility in each role and what the workplace needs are. I believe they work very well.
We use this for mostly scheduling purposes. It is an easy to use system that has a few resources that are available to staff. This is not something that we use for all of our employee training or onboarding but it is a great tool for keeping the workplace organized.
Kronos is well suited for businesses with many employees to manage multiple schedules. It helps manage teams, daily task, time sheets, and time off requests. It is very easy to use and fairly user friendly. It could be better with notifications and faster processing, but overall it is a helpful tool and allows businesses to run smoothly.

Using Kronos Workforce Ready

All types of functions. Since we are a retailer this is used for store associates, design teams, management teams and other functions across the company. It is really helpful especially in our retail locations as it keeps accountability, organization and time management at the top of mind for all our associates.
Kronos is an outside system that we use. We reach out to them for any support issues or issues with scheduling. They are always very helpful and knowledgeable and are able to help whenever we need it. It is great to have them as a support team but they are not in house.
  • scheduling
  • time management
  • organization
  • changing shifts
  • daily impact calendars
  • scheduling
This is an easy to use product with minimal issues. We are able to use it for our day to day needs as well as long term needs. It is a great tool and it helps a lot of people in our organization do what they need to. I would recommend.

Kronos has provided exceptional service many times especially when migrating two services together. It was great that they were able to help with so many people and accounts and merge everything successfully. It caused minimal issues, but those were resolved quickly thanks to the diligence of the support team and their service.
