Overall Satisfaction with UKG Ready

Most significant challenge is within leave accrual module. As most UKG customers in the civil engineering industry, we do not use time and labor module. Rather, we import an hours file from a separate system. We designed our set up to include leave accruals in UKG and we have encountered numerous, repeat challenges with hours not properly deducting, especially from calendar year to calendar year. After 6 weeks of conversations with various customer support staff, we found the resolution after being told there was no way to resolve or correct it.

This experience demonstrated that not all customer support are prepared to address customer situations and some are actually misinformed of Ready functionality.
  • EEO-1 reporting support
  • ACA tracking
  • Equalize knowledge base of customer support staff - have consistent answers regardless of associate or allow customers to contact support staff who previously supported us.
  • Enhance reporting capabilities and training opportunities so I don't have to go to AI applications with a raw EE dataset
  • EE appreciate dashboard and at-a-glance information.
  • Recruitment module created our first online recruitment effort and materially impacted our growth.
  • Automated EE and benefit data
  • Addressed compliance reporting challenges
For reasons previously stated.
Benefit administration simplifies open enrollment, vendor communications and reporting.
Pricing and sales team commitment to strong back-end customer support.

Appreciate the reminders for quarter end and year end processing.
Compliance reporting functionality makes our job easier.

UKG Ready is not a solution for companies that don't buy time and labor management, and support is not equipped to address situations the arise from this circumstance.

The UKG Ready app should be modified to fit a phone screen. Our field staff do not use it because they cannot easily navigate app functions.
