Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We Use WDHCM for HRM, BA, TM, Workforce BI, Recruiting, and Time Tracking. I believe the platform can do other capabilities, but we have not been using it since my tenure. Essentially, associates can help themselves manage their patients through PTO, healthcare, and other benefits, as well as track their employee progress via reviews and yearly touch bases.

Pros and Cons

UI: the user interface is relatively intuitive.
Robust HR functions on the cloud.
Benefits tracking.

Benefits tracking Accuracy.
Included hands on support and product management.

Return on Investment

There are some better analytical insights.
UI is relatively straight forward.
Decreased HR productivity from having to manage old platform protocols.

Flexibility

The Work Day Human Capital Management platform tool can solve most needs of a corporation our size. Our HR team's challenge has been legacy plugins and protocols that we use but need support updating, and now WD no longer provides that support and requires a whole system upgrade at a new cost. The alternative would be to pay for Specific WD support on a separate bill.

Alternatives Considered

ADP Celergo

Workday is more robust and works well with interfacing on Social media for job posts. Also, the main thing that the Workday Human capital management platform tool has going for it is that Workday can and often is used in other capacities and other applications, so employees have often used WD at other shops, and the UI is, therefore, relatively intuitive and familiar to pick up.

Likelihood to Recommend

Workday Human capital management works best when it is set and forget it. That is to say, if your org has done all the heavy lifting up front, scraped all data, and set up best practices and SOPs for the way HR is to be managed by a platform and then loaded these onto the platform, it works well. However, is transitions (from one ATS or platform over to this) or, if you had no real prep work done ahead of time, it could be done concurrent with implementing WDHRM - but I would highly not recommend that.

It's a solid solution, one of several you should try.
