Fiserv Prologue Financials vs. Workday Financial Management

If I could give this program a zero I would. In my experience, it is horrible to work on and it has caused my staff to lose productivity rather than improve it.

Our primary model for budgeting revenue is centered on patient counts. Missed assumptions early in the year result in massive ramifications over the balance of the year. Workday formulas allowed us to write formulas to project the recovery of such shortfalls over a variable length of time, resulting in realistic projections for overcoming said shortfalls.

• In my opinion, nothing is done well. I hate this program with an extreme passion.

• We specically wanted a cloud financial management system that we could use in China and communicate reports to the headquarters organization and roll-up reporting. It performs well.
• It was reasonably priced since we are not a for-profit company and need the Workday flexibility for finance and accounting operations. Most of our requirements are met with this one system.
• The system worked efficiently with the additional security we built on to keep confidential. Many reports are ready off-the-shelf or easy to develop, which is a strength.

• The automatic save function isn't always active for the cloud version. I'm not sure if it is a glitch or a settings issue.
