Overall Satisfaction with UKG Ready (formerly Kronos Workforce Ready)

We are currently implementing UKG across our organization. We are using the HR, TLM, and KPS modules to help with a timekeeping and actual hours worked/paid issues that we have. Essentially, we are fixing a compliance issue.

Pros

  • Employee Information is laid out well, easy to find, and detailed.
  • Payroll processing is easy, straight forward, and has a step by step process which makes it easy to follow.
  • Open enrollment for benefits is smooth and transfers employee's updated information over to their profile seamlessly.

Cons

  • "Hard-coded" fields are not good. This needs to be customizable since every company is not set up the same and is not using those fields the same way.
  • The work order functionality is either lacking or nonexistent, this needs to be looked into for more seamless integration to what a company might need.
  • I would like to have consultants who work together and aren't so siloed. It is very hard to transfer knowledge to each consultant when they don't know what everyone on the team is doing.
  • The implementation process has been so long, that we have had to put other internal projects on hold to put more focus on implementation.
  • It will help the organization be in compliance for timekeeping.
I think our organization is reluctant to change, and it is difficult to find a balance between a program that can help with that, and a program that can be customized to some things the organization does not want to change.
As a generalist, this program gives me far more visibility to employees than I have ever had. I am more able to help employees with specific issues, look at timesheets, and edit tasks.
I liked the iLearning and the online trainings that are provided. I also like that there are job aids available to print and come back to later for reference.
It is well suited in the HR and payroll module, it is less suited in the TLM module when needed to be tied to work orders or projects.
