Executive Director Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 6/9/2026 "Seamless Workday HCM Integration with Outstanding Performance and Support" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Workday HCM? In the past use of the ADP platform, it was not as robust or user friendly as I have found the Workday HCM platform to be. The integration process was easy, with use of information migration made simple. The performance since the integration has been second to none, as I have found to be the tool that the company was missing. The support for the any questions was available and our onboarding has really taken a step forward. The pricing was on par with our former platform, but the return I find to be better. The AI intelligence or ability to use, has been helpful as well. I truly enjoy the product and the experience has truly bee satisfying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? At the moment, nothing has presented as dislike, but if there was a challenge, it was the fear of data migration, which was seamless. The product has not disappointed in any regard as of yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you? Our onboarding process through ADP was not as robust, very antiquated, and at times stressful to update. However, all those headaches have now been avoided, and again, very pleased the purchase of the product and implementation process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Single employee record with Workday’s workflow continuity means there’s less need for repetitive data entry. It also provides a good structure for the onboarding process, and it works well for storing people information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? Nothing specific comes to mind. I’ve been using it for about two months now, and my experience has been good so far. The only issue is that it requires me to log in every time I switch to a different application to check other information; apart from that, it’s okay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you? I like how Workday HCM connects recruitment, onboarding and operations by keeping candidate and employee info all in one place easy to access. This feature helps both the recruitment team at the starting and the operations team to maintain the employee cycle well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Assistant Professor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/9/2026 "Workday HCM Streamlines HR with Intuitive Self-Service and Powerful Analytics" 5/5 What do you like best about Workday HCM? orkday HCM has significantly improved the way we manage HR processes by providing a centralized platform for employee data, recruitment, onboarding, performance management, and reporting. One of the most valuable features is its intuitive self-service functionality, which allows employees and managers to update information, submit requests, and access HR resources without relying heavily on the HR team. The automated workflows have streamlined approvals and reduced manual administrative tasks, helping improve efficiency and data accuracy. The reporting and analytics tools are particularly useful, as they provide real-time workforce insights that support informed decision-making. An unexpected benefit has been the seamless integration between different HR functions, which has improved visibility across the employee lifecycle and enhanced collaboration between departments. Overall, Workday HCM has helped create a more efficient, transparent, and user-friendly HR experience while reducing processing time for routine tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? My main challenge with Workday HCM is usability. While the platform is feature-rich, some workflows require multiple clicks and screens to complete relatively simple tasks. Reporting and search functions can also be less intuitive than expected, particularly for users without advanced training. Improvements in navigation, search accuracy, and report-building simplicity would make the overall experience more efficient and user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you? Before using Workday HCM, employee information, leave requests, approvals, and HR-related processes were often managed through multiple systems and manual communication, which made tracking and reporting time-consuming. Workday HCM centralized these processes into a single platform, providing easier access to employee records and standardized workflows. One of the key problems it solves is reducing administrative workload through automation. Tasks such as leave management, approvals, employee data updates, and reporting can be completed more efficiently, improving accuracy and reducing delays. The self-service functionality also empowers employees to manage their own information, reducing dependency on HR teams for routine requests. As a result, we benefit from better visibility of workforce data, faster processing of HR transactions, improved compliance, and more consistent record-keeping. The centralized system has helped save time, minimize manual errors, and improve overall operational efficiency across HR processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Automation Engineer Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 6/9/2026 "Self-service that saves the back-and-forth" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Workday HCM? The self-service side is what does it for me. Booking leave, checking my payslip, updating details, I do it all from my phone in a couple of minutes instead of emailing HR and waiting days. Everything's in one place and the mobile app actually works. Took a bit to learn where things live, but once it clicks it's quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? The search is the main thing. Finding a specific task or report often means knowing the exact term Workday uses, and if you guess wrong you get nothing, so I end up clicking around or googling how to do simple things. Anything beyond the basics, like custom reports, gets fiddly fast. It's powerful once you know it, but not something you can just pick up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you? It's pulled all the HR stuff that used to be scattered across emails and spreadsheets into one place. Before, requesting leave or chasing a payslip meant messaging HR and waiting for someone to get back to me, now I just do it myself and it's logged instantly. I can see my leave balance, benefits, and pay history without asking anyone, which saves me a fair bit of back-and-forth every month. For the company side it keeps everyone's records consistent, so there's less chance of something falling through the cracks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very customisable according to company and users' needs. It's a very easy to use all in one platform from team admin to recruitment to performance review which helps me efficiently deliver the work I need to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? This might be the way the company has built it but some of the functions are hidden which may take some time to find or get used to but once you are used to it, it's easy and quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Workday HCM solving and how is that benefiting you? The biggest problem it solves is the efficiency of having all the admin related stuff in a single platform. I don't have to navigate to different platforms to complete different task and the notification will allow me to easily check outstanding tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"All-in-One HR Hub That Streamlines Payroll, Benefits, and Performance" 5/5 What do you like best about Workday HCM?

Workday is my one-stop shop for handling all direct report issues and finding solutions. It includes everything I need to manage my team in the most effective and efficient way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? There’s a steep learning curve for certain functions, such as schedule changes and the time-off calculators.

It was great for interviews and candidate tracking, and I never had an issue with that. Approvals were easy as well. We didn’t have Slack integration set up, although that might have been possible. For staff 1:1s and annual review meeting notes, we kept everything in Google Docs and didn’t store them in Workday; it would have been nice to have all of that in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Workday HCM? We didn’t have our meeting notes in there, and our KPIs or performance plans were all kept as separate documents in Google Drive.
