"I would prefer not to keep using it"

2/5

What do you like best about Workday Benefits?

It is a place to check some of my benefits as an employee and to keep a record of payslips, performance... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday Benefits?

I would prefer if my company had all this information (payslips, all the benefits, expenses) in only one place. Workday is only used for payslips. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday Benefits solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is a way to check my payslips and the truth is that it is easy to use, but I don't find it relevant as it misses a lot of the information I would expect to find here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Workday just works. They kept it simple and functional."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Workday Benefits?

The layout used tiles and is very straightforward. Everything you need easily located by a straightforward image. When creating a benefits site, simple is always better so it works for everyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday Benefits?

The tiles they use are nice, but due to the lack of colors and selection of images, they start to blend together. Add more defining tiles but just don't overdo it. The simplicity is nice but it needs a bit more work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Workday Benefits:

Let the users poke around first as the tiles should be intuitive enough to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday Benefits solving and how is that benefiting you?

When employees visit a benefits portal it's because they have a very specific need in mind. Workday Benefits lays out tiles nicely in a way that employees will actually click through other tiles as well. This integrates a layer of discovery other sites do not, leading to some questions being self found and answered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Workday benefits"

4/5

What do you like best about Workday Benefits?

I like how maneuvering through the application Is very easy to do. Most often times when using an application you have to read through paragraphs just to get to a destination. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday Benefits?

Just like any other application you go through moments where it might freeze and you have to start all over so reentering information were missing something can sometimes affect the flow of things Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Workday Benefits:

Workday helps to carry out day-to-day Business Integrity and accuracy. It helps to have a more realistic outlook on what's happening regardless of what happened today tomorrow or even a week from now. It's nice to have real updates that keep you in the loop as things change from a technology perspective Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday Benefits solving and how is that benefiting you?

Payroll management and other benefits have undergone some changes and it has been helpful. Talent tracking and time management are also really helpful especially when you run a team of 50 or more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Not informative"

2/5

What do you like best about Workday Benefits?

I like the summary page of the benefits, as it lays out all benefits, dependents, and costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday Benefits?

I dislike that there is not a workflow walking me through each benefit. I recommend this type of software to clients, and I do not like most of the Workday Benefits Administration module. The UI of each benefit plan is clunky looking, and, compared with competitors, it has multiple steps to click through. Benefits Administration platforms meant for small businesses does a much better job with the workflow, UI of each plan, information within, organization of each page, and easy-to-find links and related documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday Benefits solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our organization has put benefits administration with the other modules we utilize, so there are fewer systems to log into. That is the only benefit I have seen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very easy, simplifies a lot of the workflow"

5/5

What do you like best about Workday Benefits?

Very easy to set up and get started. Also easy to maintain and administer. It's a gamechanger -- much easier than other solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday Benefits?

Some of the control pages are overly complex and it's not clear exactly what fields need to be changed and why. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday Benefits solving and how is that benefiting you?

Set up benefits, support changes via qualified events, open enrollment, add or remove insurance providers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4.5/5

What do you like best about Workday Benefits?

The organization inside the tool and that the platform is user friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday Benefits?

Maybe is a little too inclusive of information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Workday Benefits:

Maybe the divisions on the platform will be better divided in the future Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday Benefits solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were able to show the payments to our employees in terms of the their bonuses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Unclear UX Design"

1/5

What do you like best about Workday Benefits?

I like how the inbox is located at the main dashboard and has all of our unread/unfinished messages. I like the Shortcuts button because it helps me get to where I need to go faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday Benefits?

It isn't easy to find where to request Paid Time Off. Putting PTO under "Absences" isn't clear. Then when you finally find the tab, it's confusing having to input "Start Time" and "End Time" instead of just saying that you'll be taking the full (8 hour) day off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday Benefits solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is a centralized place where employees can access information about their benefits. It is where HR can send out essential tasks such as signing company acknowledgments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very enterprise, but does the job once you can find what you're looking for"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Workday Benefits?

Workday does what it says on the tin. I can view my paychecks, handle open enrollment, and submit time off in a way that makes intuitive sense, without any funky errors or confusing workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday Benefits?

The user interface is not great. It's a classic case of slightly dated, annoying design with tables and buttons and dropdown menus in places that don't make sense. Plan for it to take 2 minutes longer than it should for you to find what you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday Benefits solving and how is that benefiting you?

Workday saves our HR team time fielding questions and sorting through expenses. It's a centralized place for employees to handle most benefits arrangements via self-serve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Workday Review"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Workday Benefits?

I like how all categories are grouped together on the homepage and that I can access the app from my phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workday Benefits?

Overall, Workday is not as intuitive/easy to navigate as ADP was. I think the clock-in/clock-out and time features could be improved, along with the absence balance calculations - they don't update after future PTO has been approved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workday Benefits solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm able to keep track of my weekly timesheet, PTO/absences and have links to all HR benefits. There was a learning curve switching from ADP, and overall I feel like I waste more time trying to find what I'm looking for, but it's manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
