Overall Satisfaction with UKG Ready

UKG Ready is the tightly integrated time and labor/scheduling component of Primepoint's best-in-class modular HCM offering. We use the product internally, as well as support over 350 corporate, government entities, and major sports franchises across the United States. Primepoint is a proud UKG Ready Partner, the largest UKG Ready (2020 Time & Labor Revenue) partner in the US.
  • User-friendly interface
  • Ever evolving/new features keeping it at the forefront of the industry
  • Robust reporting
  • Specific balance-on-date accrual reports
  • Prematurely sunsetting popular original UI reports
  • Speed of development of scheduling features
  • I would like the ability to offer customized solutions using a combination of Primepont and UKG Ready technologies.
  • I would like the ability to compete more favorably in 100-5000 users marketplace by completing our HCM offering.
Our primary verticals are local state government, non-profits, and professional sports franchises. Due to the complex nature of their time recording, payroll, and reporting needs, we have excelled at helping our clients with challenging reporting needs; easily capture the detailed hours they need, and then produce job costing reports, grant allocation, or assist with complex tax/financial reporting.
The software, while incredibly powerful, is also extremely user-friendly. Because of this, it allows my department of six employees to support over 60,000 users. We have taken government payrolls that used to be paper and pen from a 3-day process of collection, compilation, and entry to a couple of hours while increasing the integrity of the data and offering robust reporting - in many cases downloadable to 6 different formats (CSV, Excel, PDF, HTML, XML, Text). In addition to opening up data integration possibilities, this also allows the end-user to perform other tasks that are a value add to their organization, rather than spending countless hours on menial data entry tasks.
UKG Ready has a vast training aid/video library available thru the product, has the ability to structure end-user learning, and offers educational webinars and an annual conference where partners can interact with the product managers.

Would you buy UKG Ready again?

This product really has few peers in the SMB market for time and labor. The product was developed by SaasHR in Branchburg, NJ, purchased by Kronos in 2012, and acquired via a merger with Ultimate in 2020. The bones of the original product have stood the test of time and the incredible R&D at UKG Ready just keeps improving it.
