Use Cases and Deployment Scope

UKG Ready is used across our entire organization. It addresses timekeeping issues, labor analytics, employee access to employment information, etc. Not only is it our payroll system, [but it also] helps us analyze information about our employees that drive decisions for the improvement of processes across the company.

Pros and Cons

Everything is a report.
Data is easily read.
I have access to it anywhere.
It helps simplify daily tasks.

I cannot really get an "accruals as of specific date".
Certain fields are only available in specific reports, so we have to combine information often.
I would like to see when changes were made to configurations, [as] an audit trail for profiles.

Return on Investment

The most positive is that we can manage most of the HR activities from within one system. It's our one-stop-shop (except for recruiting).
Because we have had it for some time, employees are familiar with it. And although the look has changed, the functionalities have remained helpful.
We are far more productive in labor transfers than we have been in the past because of sunshine systems, an organization that has helped us track labor down to the product.
With the EverythingBenefits partnership, our information is easily transferred to our carriers with very little manual intervention - this has saved us so much time.

Alternatives Considered

I have not used another system before.

Usability

I give it this high rating because it is overall very easy to use. Of course, it can always be better, and some of the terminology used is always changing and not always intuitive.

Ease of Integration

The integration process is easy and help is always provided.
