Pros / Cons
  • One function that I personally enjoy (even though my staff do not) is the added security function that if you enter your credentials wrong twice (not three times like most people are used to), the system locks you out and then only an admin (like myself) can connect with Rise to unlock it.
  • Some of the modules do not speak to each other; changing a start date doesnt flow over the compensation start dates, onboarding defaults to work email and phone number when should go to personal; calendars are tedious as you cant choose a date, but need to scroll month by month.

  • What I like most about UKG Pro is the fact that it streamlines my schedule, timecard, and vacation time along with important employee details.
  • The applicant tracking system tool does not even come close to stacking up with stand alone ATS products.
