10 /10

What differentiates Workday Human Capital Management from other similar products?

Provides everything in one platform like Pyaroll. Talent acquisition, performance measures, benefits, and learning. It provides strong analytic and AI support

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Because everything—HR, payroll, benefits, recruiting, and talent management is connected in one system, This is very helpful for large organizations where they do dnot have proper system setup

What do you dislike most about this product?

This is complex software to use. Need proper training and integrations as per the organisations needs. Basic tasks that we can do easily with the help of understanding and other files can seem s little complicated sometimes.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It takes a long time to implement, so be prepared for it. Training can be expensive. You need to assign someone in your organization who can take full charge of everything. Workday is best for mid-to-large enterprises with complex HR needs
