9 /10

What differentiates Workday Human Capital Management from other similar products?

The UI is clean and simple to use, resulting in a positive customer experience. If you realize what you're getting for, scrolling to various fields or obtaining data is quite straightforward.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We now have a single platform that all workers in retailing, workplace, and manufacturing could be used to retrieve their private details, performance-related details, employment history, perks, remuneration, recruiting, and even more. It's really the technology that allows us to fully analyze our personnel makeup, generate analytics, and make smarter business decisions altogether.

What do you dislike most about this product?

If we need to log in numerous occasions in a day using a clumsy MFA, the login process becomes annoying. If you can somehow test a gadget for extended periods of time, the platform would perform much better.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Highly recommended it allows us to fully analyze our personnel makeup, generate analytics, and make smarter business decisions altogether.

Pros

Effective Service
Caring
Acts with Integrity
Transparent
