"Easy to use and locate information when needed"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

I like the user interface very much, it makes it easy to find information I need quickly. Having things at my fingertips like that has made it easy to identify discrepancies for my employees and communicate to Human Resources to get them corrected. The ability to access the system remotely through a smartphone app is also very helpful if I need to access the system while on the go. Related to that, the punch map feature has also been very helpful in ensuring that employees are where they should be when they clock in and out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

I think most of the downsides related to my experience with UKG have more to do with the access given to members of management by our organization. I do think that it would be helpful to see historical position changes, as now I have to guess based on variances in compensation, which isn't always effective.

"Efficient Timekeeping with a Few Growing Pains"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

What I like best: I appreciate that UKG Ready promotes accountability and transparency. Employees are now more responsible for managing their own time, which encourages accuracy and ownership.

What is most helpful: The real-time tracking and visibility into punches and timecards are very helpful. It reduces confusion and allows both employees and supervisors to monitor time entries efficiently.

What are the upsides: Encourages employee accountability; Improves accuracy in timekeeping; Provides immediate access to schedules, timecards, and requests; Helps streamline approval workflows Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

What I dislike: Some features lack flexibility. For example, the inability to override or mark certain types of time punches (like working through lunch) can make it harder to reflect actual hours worked.

What are the downsides: Occasional technical glitches (e.g., random clock-outs); Some employees find the interface confusing or not user-friendly; Limited manual adjustments can delay corrections or updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"UKG Ready Review for HR Purposes"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

As someone who uses UKG Ready almost every minute of the day during work, some of the things I like are things like being able to make changes behind the scenes pretty easily, and if I get stuck, I can look up forums on UKG to guide me into the right place. It is just an easy system overall to make changes to and isn't complicated, which is a huge help, and UKG has been a huge help since its implementation last year. Speaking of the integration, things run a lot smoother here in our organization, and UKG has been a huge step in the right direction. Also, the few times i have used customer service has been amazing, the people on the phone have been very helpful, but have also been very kind and easy to work with, even if we don't understand some of the things that may be an obvious answer to them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

Sometimes I think that when going to an employee's profile and going through their page, the way it is set up on default makes a lot of the information cluttered. I know that you can go in and customize it to your liking, but there seems to be too much, and sometimes it makes things hard to find without either looking for it with Ctrl F or having to learn and memorize where each item is.

"UKG has been a super user friendly and efficient HR portal that works great."
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

The ease of using the mobile app is really nice, especially when it comes to applying for PTO from my phone. Its been great to have a central place to receive company information/news, make life changes, and all the other great functions. I've used other porals at previous jobs like VensureHR, and this is much better than anything ive used before. I love the many features that it offers, overall an amazing app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

I dont see any downsides in using it, the PTO toggles maybe could be highlighted/explained a little better. When i first got here, I had to go see my HR to ask how to take off for PTO, and after they showed me to toggle onto the PTO/Flex Time Off options, it was easy to do. 10/10 recommend though.

"UKG Ready is a great tool for any business"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

I like how easy it is to log in and view exactly what I need quickly. Everything is presented directly on the dashboard and couldn't be easier. It was easy to show all my contractors how to use this program also. I know that if I have any problems, I will receive support quickly. I use this program daily and the transition was simple. This makes my work day so stress free! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

I would have to say that the only downside that I have noticed with UKG Ready, is not the program itself, it is from contractors that are not technologically inclined. The app may lag or load slowly, especially on older devices or during peak usage times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Definitely one of the better company interfaces out there!"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

I like the home page hub where it has everything I need at a quick glance. It's easy to request time off, look at pay stubs, documents, and look at your accrued time and PTO. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

I wish the app for the cellphone was a little easier to access. almost every week I get signed out and it doesn't have a remember me or Face ID option. I don't want to have to type in my company code every time I want to look at UKG on my phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Timekeeping Software with helpful Perks"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

The extra little features like the Predict My Pay and time off calculator are great tools! There are so many features built in and it was far more than just a time clock. I can review previous pay stubs, check my time off accruals and time spent. I can also find links to other company benefits such as insurance and 401k. I can also adjust my direct deposits and allocations right from application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

I really can't think of anything. There's a good chance I don't utilize all of the features frequently, but I haven't found anything that was problematic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"UKG has been a game changer for my HR department of one."
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

I am able to automate all of the processes I once completed manually. I've replaced a lot of emailing and spreadsheets with UKG workflows. Customer support is great, as well as Community where I can often answer questions and solve issues on my own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

Being a department of one made the implementation process very stressful. The UKG team members I worked with were amazing, but it is a lot of work. I do feel it was worth it! While general customer support has been great, I did have challenges navigating a service request. That process can use some refining. However, I did share my frustrations with senior management, and they replied to me immediately! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Creative Team - Perspective on UKG"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

When I log in to do my timesheets, UKG Ready has my projects I've been working on pre-filled and I just have to tally the hours and make sure everything adds up. Overall it is a great experience and way better than other's that I've dealt with in the past. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

Sometimes, if you wait till Monday morning to fill out your timesheets, the system will have auto-switched the boxes over to that current week. So, you have to remember to go back one week in the calendar first, otherwise you will mistakenly put in time for the current week that hasn't happened yet. Then you supervisor has to go fix it. It is embarrassing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"UKG Ready is very easy to navigate through!"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

Having access to view my timesheets on a daily basis is very important to me, and UKG makes it very easy to do so. Also, being able to view all my paystubs is great because I don't have to keep physical copies stacked up at home. I can just log into my UKG account and access whichever I need at any time. Having the UKG mobile app available is also another thing I enjoy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

For the way I use UKG Ready, I haven't stumbled upon any problems so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
