We chose Workday HCM due to the innovative nature of the company and the clean and easy to use interface. It's really leaps and bounds ahead of Oracle -- the major other incumbent in the space. We are really please with Workday -- the only complaint being the price.
Workday HCM is being leveraged across the whole company. It serves as the consolidation point for (i) headcount tracking, (ii) employee information, (iii) benefits, (iv) compensation planning, and (v) organizational design. The user interface is sleek and easy to use for all users -- even new ones. We've also been able to easily connect Workday HCM to several other software solutions further improving efficiency. My only complaint about this software is the price -- as your organization grows it gets quite expense due to the SaaS pricing.
