Workday Human Capital Management for Scale!

Rating: 9 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Workday Human Capital Management as our ATS and HRIS. On the recruiting team we use Workday Human Capital Management to keep track of headcount, post job openings, internally and externally, track applicants and take candidates to offer/placement. As an employee we use Workday Human Capital Management to track time, benefits and enrollment and pay.

Pros

  • Time Track
  • Manage Applicants
  • Benefits

Cons

  • headcount management
  • duplicate candidate profiles

Likelihood to Recommend

Workday Human Capital Management works well to time track and track pay/details. It is easy to enroll in benefits and view benefits. Easily accessible and user friendly. I think Workday Human Capital Management is difficult in the realm of tracking applicants, headcount and job reqs. Workday Human Capital Management does not allow you to merge candidate profiles without being an admin. This causes confusion and takes more time.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Workday Human Capital Management is an internal profile management tool where associates are updating the work history similar to other job seeking platform. Associates can add projects, achievements , certifications etc. The alerts are helping to get notification for the job and recruiters have complete visibility about candidature. It helps to speed up the process and maintain end to end visibility.

It also helps to maintain performance, annual review and compensation records as well as all type of learning records.

Pros

  • Maintaining associates performance data
  • Seeking and applying for internal job postings
  • one stop solution for various type of learnings

Cons

  • I feel there should be option to add video recorded self introduction and career experience where recruiter can go through it to understand candidate before approaching him.

Likelihood to Recommend

it helped to apply internal and get visibility about application.

Workday Human Capital Management can cover your Enterprise needs

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Workday Human Capital Management in many ways where I work. I use it for requesting time off, seeing time off from other colleagues, looking up coworkers info and their reporting structure, I file my expense reports through Workday Human Capital Management, I review open roles and also refer colleagues to open roles using Workday Human Capital Management. I also review my quarterly and annual conversation talking points, tracking goals and accomplishments.

Pros

  • Expense Reporting
  • Quarterly & Annual Goals & Initiative tracking
  • Job Referrals

Cons

  • Reporting on time off requests, because now, it's a very manual process.
  • Navigation when in Expense Reporting
  • Better defined processes in Expense Reporting that aren't always intuitive.

Likelihood to Recommend

I believe it's well suite for large organizations who need a large platform from which to do many things all within one area. While it may do even more that we don't use it for (I'm not sure), it seems to cover a wide range of features that covers most of our needs. It may be too much for a SMB customer, but again, I'm no expert.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I was using Zoho and other in house applications to managed the different department but post implementation of HCM module I am really got great productivity and results which I was looking for my organisation.
Initially my team wa confused between SF and Workday Human Capital Management but now everyone is very much satisfied.

Pros

  • Easy to manage the team and defining the KPI
  • Helped our organisation for a right transformation using change management Analytics
  • Globally Accepted.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is one of the kind application which help organisation to setup the right workforce with well defined KPI and KRAs
It also came as a saviour while you need global change management and acquisition.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I personally use Workday Human Capital Management for much of the reporting and analysis for our FP&A function. Workday Human Capital Management is used to manage all of our hiring and current employee information including all of the data that is utilized for our budgeting and planning. For my role, Workday Human Capital Management provides an automated and standardized process for employee data that can be transformed and loaded to our financial planning tool.

Pros

  • Reporting and Analysis
  • Employee Data (changing information, promotions, termination, etc.)
  • Open Positions (Tracking, Reporting, and Creation)

Cons

  • Additional Easily Reportable Data Fields (May be available but something we are not utilizing)
  • International Worker integration with Workday Payroll
  • Maybe some additional ways to report on positions

Likelihood to Recommend

I believe that Workday Human Capital Management is a great tool all the way around for any team that is already utilizing any of the Workday Platform products. It makes for a seamless way to view Worker data within the same tool that is used for accounting/finance. This is definitely a tool I would recommend to purchase all of the features for, such as Payroll, because without the full functionality of Workday Human Capital Management the product can prove to be difficult to use. However, with our organization we use the full capabilities and it makes our process seamless.

Great Partners...

Rating: 10 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Workday Human Capital Management for Human Resources, Timekeeping, Benefits and Payroll functions. I find this system to be user-friendly and it partners well with our Third Party partners for Payroll. It is refreshing to have a product that is a one stop shop for all my HR related needs and partners well with my TP.

Pros

  • Employee Records
  • Timekeeping
  • Payroll
  • Benefits Management

Cons

  • Document Cloud
  • Timekeeping
  • Some payroll functions

Likelihood to Recommend

Over the years my experience with the Workday Human Capital Management has increased based on my roles with my companies. This product is very user-friendly, right down to the employee experience. This is very important during the onboarding process.

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

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

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

Cons

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

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.

Workday Human Capital Management - A Solid choice for enterprise users

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Workday HCM extensively to handle our HR processes. This currently includes onboarding, promotions, termination, benefits, etc. Workday is a robust solution/ecosystem that allows us to handle the various components in a single use case. We also use this system to drive integrations to our various other systems including our accounting system which is currently Netsuite.

Pros

  • Robust Search functions
  • Security Groups are powerful
  • business process creation for validation rules and flows

Cons

  • The global search is way behind other software offerings
  • While the reporting is powerful it is complicated
  • Missing a simple way to upload data (EDI is powerful but a simple CSV option would be nice too)

Likelihood to Recommend

I think Workday Human Capital Management is well suited for large organizations who want a system that handles many things pretty well. It isn't without it's flaws though, and I think without a true admin a HR team would struggle to make the system work how it should. The appeal of the entire Workday Human Capital Management ecosystem is also something to consider even if not all of the options are top notch yet.
