Dayforce Reviews & Product Details

I appreciate how Dayforce centralizes so many HR functions into one platform, which is really helpful for streamlining a wide range of employee lifecycle processes. I value the transparency it provides to employees and supervisors. The reporting tools are particularly valuable because they allow us to access real-time information quickly without having to pull data from multiple sources, and it's easy to run standardized reports as well as create custom ones. The ability to export reports in different formats is also helpful when sharing information. Overall, Dayforce's ability to integrate processes, maintain accuracy, and improve visibility across the organization are the features that stand out the most.

I find that small configuration changes in Dayforce require back-end support, which can slow down the updates we need to make more quickly. More flexibility and admin-level customization options would be helpful. Most importantly, the customer service reps seem to be overseas and/or speak very broken English and can be very hard to understand. The dashboards are functional but limited, and it would be helpful to have widgets that allow you to quickly visualize. A more drag-and-drop style dashboard builder would also make it easier to tailor views for HR, supervisors, and leaders. The initial setup wasn't easy, and we did most of the heavy lifting.

How different parts of the company within HR integrate with other departments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When they do updates, they change a lot of things without any explanation or guidance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ease of use for employees with Dayforce, as everything is pretty simple. Creating reports, updating information, and requesting time off are straightforward tasks. I also utilize Dayforce reports almost daily, and I appreciate being able to create and add fields whenever needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's more so the way our system is configured, it's very clunky to approve time off for employees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find data visualization significantly easier with Dayforce, which enhances our dashboard views. I particularly appreciate how it displays key reports, such as headcount breakdowns by full-time and contractual employees. The platform also provides insightful bifurcations by age, gender, and salary brackets, enabling quick and effective data analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've encountered frequent technical glitches, particularly with income tax processing, which is frustrating as resolutions often take around 24 hours—likely due to the US-based company's time zone differences with IST. There's heavy dependency on the US team, leading to delays. Additionally, integration options are limited; our attempt to connect with ADP for tax submissions was one integration which I have witnessed others I have not.

I use Dayforce as a management tool for development, work, profile, and performance. I find it very easy to use, and it helps me understand my performance with all my information in one place, which is very helpful. I really appreciate how it allows my managers to access real-time data updates. The fact that workforce management and talent management are all in one place makes it very organized. Dayforce makes scheduling and time tracking easier, and the section for performance reviews helps me understand my strengths and weaknesses, supporting my career growth and keeping me aligned with business needs. The initial setup was quite easy as well, with guidance from our managers, and then we were able to navigate the tool ourselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The reporting tools maybe could have been a bit easier to use. Maybe having single drag and drop features or a few readymade templates so that reports can be made faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dayforce is an All-in-one HR system (its biggest strength)

Dayforce combines HR, payroll, benefits, time tracking, and workforce management into a single platform. That means fewer systems to manage and less duplicate data entry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dayforce is not very user-friendly. The system is clunky and unintuitive

Simple tasks can take too many clicks and steps Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The company I was using Dayforce with is no longer in business, so I don't use it any longer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I no longer am using the Dayforce software, so I don't have any additional feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the simplicity of the schedule in Dayforce, which makes it easy to make edits and changes as needed. I appreciate the ability to authorize and approve my staff's time card entries on the go. It's integrated smoothly with my single sign-on system, which makes accessing it effortless. I can just click on it, and it opens up instantly. I also find it valuable that I can approve time off and run reports to show me overtime, which helps me keep my P&L in line. Overall, it's just a great resource.

My least favorite thing about it is the actual entry of the schedule. I find it slightly challenging when I do a schedule for a month because I can only do it week by week. I'd like to just be able to do an entire employee for the entire month and then go to the next one versus only having to do all my employees week by week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
