Overall Satisfaction with UKG Ready (formerly Kronos Workforce Ready)

We went live with UKG Ready in October 2019 across our organization. It addressed our immediate needs: to update our technology, fully utilize mobile capabilities, and have a system that was agile and could quickly adapt to changing business needs. We would not have been able to complete the many needed tasks due to business closures in 2020 with our old technology.
  • Handles complex time keeping needs very well.
  • Data in/Data out is extremely easy.
  • User-friendly User Interface - intuitive for users
  • Can't filter on custom reports in the system
  • Managers have easy access to people/hours/earnings to better manage budgets - once we implement Scheduler, we'll take it to the next level.
  • Managers and employees can self-serve in ways not possible before - we eliminated 95% of paper processes during our implementation.
Our workforce is unique with multiple jobs and rates of pay. UKG is listening to user feedback and continues to improve and add to the functionality.

UKG Ready (formerly Kronos Workforce Ready) Support

The Implementation people were terrific and I've not had a bad experience using the customer support group. They respond quickly with resolutions or escalate the issue as needed.
