Overall Satisfaction with UltiPro

The activation consultant was good but needed more support. He was good in some areas and lacking in others. We have spent months fixing configuration issues. More information regarding training would be helpful. We were confused as to who needed to take what. The sales presentation needs to do a better job explaining the core product. We were shown a certain functionality and told it would be available [only] to find out months later that it was a third party add-on that came at a additional cost.
We are using UltiPro across the entire company. We implemented Payroll in January and are in the process of implementing Benefits, OnBoarding, Recruiting and also use UltiPro Time Management (UTM). Since we are new to the product and are implementing several modules in a small time frame we were challenged with getting our core HR users trained in aspects they are currently involved in.
  • The core product is very user friendly. Employees doing time management having taken very well to it. Admin users in HR in Benefits, Compensation and Recruiting are learning the various modules and have provided very positive feedback.
  • UTM has simplified how we do time management and made it very easy for the end-users.
  • BI Reporting is a welcome tool. Myself and the other Senior HRIS Analyst have learned tons in the several months since implementation.
  • Activation was challenging. The consultant was good but really needed some help. He was good in some areas and lacking in others. We have spent months correcting configuration issues.
  • UltiPro needs better communication on who needs to take what training. We were very confused initially.
  • During the sales presentation we were told about certain functionality and shown a demonstration to later find out it was a third party add on and we would have to pay extra.
What exactly are we getting? What costs [are] additional? We are learning as we prepare for Open Enrollment that there is an additional cost associated with vendor interfaces.
