"HCM Software for Clients and Partners: UKG Ready — Powerful & Worth the Investment"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

UKG Ready offers a wide range of all-in-one services, but what I like most is the flexibility and customization in time and labor management. There have been instances where even UKG claimed something wasn’t possible, and yet we managed to find a workaround.

The ability to calculate hours using formulas and trigger different categories based on various scenarios makes this one of the most robust and versatile time and labor management systems out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

Training, documentation, and support are the weak spots. Although these areas have improved over time, they still leave much to be desired. There’s a reason consulting firms thrive around this software. UKG provides a powerful product, but its training lacks depth. Instead of focusing on real-world, scenario-based training—like “if this, then that” logic—they often present a high-level overview. Users need more practical, hands-on guidance to fully utilize the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quick and Easy to Use."
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

I can easily log in from my laptop or phone (i.e., works best with the Wi-Fi off). It is very straight forward. You click "modify punch" for any missing ones or corrections needed. You select "My Time" or "Request Time Off" for time off. Hours are rounded up or down, but you can see this on the timesheet. It clarifies available time-off hours and reflects approvals of requests. A message is also sent to update you. I work for an FQHC, so this is our second or third product since I have been here. So far there have been no major issues and we all love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

I need to turn off Wi-Fi to punch in or out on my phone. By not doing so, the punch would sync 1-2 days later. Then sometimes they do not sync at all. I would also like to be add to manually add in missed punches myself, but you have to submit a request and do it that way. This is not too bad, but it gets annoying and tedious when it keeps happening from punching in or out through the mobile app or in general. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient and Reliable: My Experience with UKG Payroll"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

What I appreciate most about UKG Ready is its user-friendly interface and centralized functionality. It allows for seamless integration of payroll, timekeeping, and HR tasks all in one platform, which significantly reduces administrative burden. The real-time reporting tools are especially helpful for tracking employee hours, managing PTO, and ensuring payroll accuracy.

Additionally, the system is highly customizable, making it adaptable to the specific needs of our organization. The mobile access is also a great feature—allowing both employees and managers to handle tasks on the go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

One of the main challenges is the occasional system lags or slow loading times during peak usage can be frustrating, particularly around payroll processing deadlines. It would also be helpful if there were more streamlined workflows between modules like timekeeping and scheduling to avoid duplicative entries or errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very user friendly software"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

I like that in can store the documents related to my company. It also has a notification system that enabled me to get the tasks done that I needed to get done. I use the software nearly everyday and have not had any trouble finding what I need to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

One feature I dislike is that you have to hold your mouse over the dropdown tabs on the side. You cannot click on them to get them to stay open. Sometimes I will have to try 2-3 times to get to the tab I need because my mouse temporarily leaves the hitbox of the menu. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My experience with UKG"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

UKG is in general incredibly user friendly and very easy to navigate Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

I don't really think there's anything I dislike about UKG. It was a little tricky to navigate after our company merger but after getting used to it again it was still fairly simple to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ease of use with UKG Ready"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

UKG Ready is very easy to use and that's great because I use it every day!

I once had a forgot password issue and spoke with the customer service rep and they had everything fixed in just a few minutes, so I didn't miss anything in my day waiting on hold or for a resolution.

It was also super easy to get all my paperwork done when I started with this company Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

There isn't really anything I dislike. It works very well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A straightforward way to keep timesheets"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

UKG Ready is an easy to use, straightforward program. The "clock-in"--"clock out" buttons makes filing out your time sheet a very simple process. However, if edits need to be made to your time sheet, one can easily enter into the specific page and do so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

The UKG program has a plethora of features. While this is necessary to make it useful for a variety of tasks, it can sometimes make navigating the application a bit difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great system for any company, everything in one place"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

I use UKG for clocking in and out, reviewing my timesheet, checking my paystubs, and sometimes completing some kind of checklist. I love how everything is organized and easy to use. I also like that everything is in the same place, and I don't need to use another system for legal documents or benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

Sometimes it is annoying to have to change my password randomly, but I understand that is due to security purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quick and Simple to use"
What do you like best about UKG Ready?

How the side dropdown bar is labeled and categorized into different items. (Time, schedule, benefits, etc) makes it easier to find what I'm looking for. Using it daily with these features makes clocking in simple.

Both the laptop version and phone version are both easy to navigate and pair with the authentication easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

Home screen seems to change what is on it without me knowing. But I'm sure an email to customer support would resolve this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I like that I'm able to pull up files of every employee that works with us. Being able to approve vacations, or adding notes to files, as well as write-ups. If i need to reach out to anyone, I have all their records recorded to contact the employee in case of emergency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UKG Ready?

Everything is just fine to me. I don't see anything that needs to be changed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
