What do you like best about Assembled WFM?
The combination of modern UX, robust integrations, and genuine flexibility makes Assembled feel like a WFM platform built for today's dynamic workforce management challenges.
What I like best about Assembled WFM:
Intuitive User Experience & Modern Interface
What stands out most is Assembled's clean, modern UI that makes workforce management actually enjoyable to use. Unlike legacy WFM systems that feel clunky, Assembled's interface is intuitive enough that our teams across multiple sites (Manila, Sutherland, Probe) picked it up quickly during training rollouts.
Powerful Integration Capabilities
The seamless integration with Workday has been a game-changer. We've achieved 98.54% accuracy in employee lead assignments across 5,200+ employees with our Workday-Assembled integration - that's exceptional data quality that directly impacts our operational efficiency.
Flexible Scheduling Features
The platform's scheduling flexibility really shines with features like:
Event Layers for complex scheduling scenarios
Recurring Events that streamline repetitive tasks
Extra Time (ET) and Voluntary Time Off (VTO) slots that give our workforce more flexibility
Meeting Scheduler integration
Rapid Deployment & Scalability
We deployed a completed a new instance in just 2 months - that's incredibly fast for enterprise WFM implementations. The platform scales beautifully across our multi-site, multi-BPO environment.
Responsive Development Team
Assembled continuously ships improvements based on user feedback. The platform feels like it's actively evolving with our needs rather than being a static enterprise tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Areas for Improvement in Assembled WFM:
Limited Reporting Flexibility & Customization
The biggest pain point is the lack of custom report building capabilities. We need the ability to create tailored reports that match our specific operational needs and schedule them for automatic delivery. Currently, we're often stuck with pre-built reports that don't quite fit our requirements, leading to manual workarounds.
Adherence Reporting Data Freshness Issues
We've experienced ongoing challenges with adherence reporting due to cached metrics and non-live data feeds. When schedules are updated, the adherence reports should refresh instantly, but there's often a lag that creates confusion and requires manual verification. Real-time data accuracy is critical for workforce management decisions.
Missing Core WFM Features
Two fundamental workforce management capabilities are notably absent:
Vacation Bidding Management: No robust vacation request, approval, and tracking system. Basics are there, but bidding based on custom stack rankings are not present.
Schedule Bidding: Lack of employee self-service schedule bidding functionality that's standard in most WFM platforms
These gaps force us to manage these processes outside the platform, reducing efficiency.
Export Limitations
Many reports and screens lack export functionality or customizable export options. This creates unnecessary manual work when we need data in specific formats for stakeholder reporting or analysis. The ability to export data should be standard across all views.
Insufficient Role & Permission Granularity
The current permissions model doesn't provide enough granular control. We need more nuanced role definitions to properly segment access based on organizational hierarchy, site locations, and functional responsibilities. This is especially challenging in our multi-site, multi-BPO environment.
Overall Impact
While Assembled excels in core scheduling and integration capabilities, these limitations require workarounds that reduce the platform's overall efficiency gains. Enhanced reporting flexibility and real-time data accuracy would significantly improve the user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
