The main upsides of Workday are its unified, cloud-based platform for HR, Finance, and Operations, offering real-time analytics, seamless integration, and enhanced employee self-service via a user-friendly, mobile-friendly interface, boosting efficiency, data accuracy, and compliance while reducing manual work and empowering strategic decision-making. Its scalability, security, and configurable workflows support global operations, adapting to changing regulations and business needs effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Downsides of Workday include a complex, non-intuitive interface requiring significant training, high costs (especially for mid-market/smaller firms), lengthy implementations, and limitations in deep, specialized functions like manufacturing or robust recruiting (ATS) compared to dedicated solutions, often leading to user dissatisfaction and reliance on third-party integrations for a complete user experience. Its siloed data model for different modules also creates integration challenges for end-to-end processes, despite its "single source of truth" goal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
