Pros / Cons
- Together our company and Dayforce's updates has allowed us to expand and keep everything in on place, from payroll to learning platforms and performance reviews
- Other days I find that there are missing pieces that we can't add because of the cost and the lack of customization allowed in configuration for things like Performance reviews and onboarding.

- I love dayforce, for T4s, EHT, bi-weekly payroll processing, such an easy system to use and so many tutorials and pages dedicated to step-by-step processes
- I didn’t like the limited features offered within this app.
