Some Difficulty

3.0 last month New

Pros:

I enjoy the ability to view and approve my team members' vacation requests.

Cons:

The user-experience is difficult. This may in part be due to our onboarding process, but we have had many struggles getting the system to work properly and understanding the various tools within the platform.

Alternatives Considered:

Dayforce is a highly intelligent system with large reporting capabilities

3.0 3 months ago

Pros:

The payroll system is intuitive and reports are robust.

Cons:

Implementation was incredibly long and the support ticket advisors are usually poorly trained. During implementation we had several different project managers due to turnover. Most of the advisors we have had directly from Ceridian have been so siloed they did not understand how their section of the system effected other systems. This has caused many issues down the line for us. I am still correcting things set up wrong during implementation.
