Overall Satisfaction with UKG Ready (formerly Kronos Workforce Ready)

We currently utilize UKG across our whole organization. We use UKG to resolve TLM, HR, and payroll business problems. We have solved timesheet issues by implementing specific rules and thus limiting overtime costs due to inaccurate punching. UKG allows our company to be completely paperless and we have implemented many checklists for many happy clients.
  • UKG offers an enormous amount of documentation, training classes, and opportunities to increase knowledge of the system.
  • The customization options are endless.
  • User friendly interface.
  • Definitely takes a while to get familiar in the system.
  • Certain mass editing options could be improved.
  • Ability to configure certain defaults sometimes seems limited.
  • We have doubled our profits.
  • We have spent less money and time on mindless tasks.
  • We save so many trees.
I think the overall system is great, however, there are a lot of areas that could be improved, specifically the recruitment and scheduler modules. The TLM, HR, and payroll modules however are very good for what they have been designed to accomplish. Plenty of ways to configure file feeds as well.
UKG's super software, allows me to seamlessly configure, implement, and onboard all of our new clients from anywhere with internet access. It is so convenient to be able to complete half of my tasks via mobile phone as well. UKG's directory online even made it possible for one of my employees' to inform me of an urgent matter fairly quickly. Thanks!
UKG has a plethora of information to everyone with just a few clicks. From webinars, training sessions, community groups, announcements, etc, there is a helpful piece of information just lurking around the corner!

Do you think UKG Ready delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with UKG Ready's feature set?

Yes

Did UKG Ready live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of UKG Ready go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy UKG Ready again?

Yes

I find that UKG is not the best system for using a scheduler engine. It is very complicated, hard to follow, and not very much support available on this topic. UKG is great for turning your company paperless. All onboarding, documents, trainings, reviews, recruiting, etc. can be done through the system, stored in one place with one password.
