Wouldn't change anything! It has simplified and streamlined all our processes into an easy to use system.

A one-stop shop with white-glove service has met every need that we have had.

CONS

Would prefer the success care training happen earlier in the process.

Reason for choosing UKG Ready

Again, UKG met all our needs.

Reasons for switching to UKG Ready

You can't go wrong with UKG

We collected time on paper sheets prior to vetting a software. We went with out payroll software company and they couldn't meet our need for the complex ways we pay our employees. We then did research and really put UKG under a microscope to be sure they were the best fit for us. They have met and exceeded our expectations for time and attendance. We hope to be able to look at their payroll software in the future and see if that might be a better fit for us as well.

PROS

The ease of collecting data and then using it with our payroll software. We were using the same company for payroll as well as time tracking. It was not capable of collecting our complex pay methods, but UKG was. It has made doing payroll easy and expedited the process. Also their customer support is one of the best around. I don't know of a company that is doing this any better in the industry.

CONS

It is hard to find things we don't like. I would say things that we might not change would be the appearance of the online layout. It has changed a few times in the short period we have been on it. Just takes a second to find where something is.

Reason for choosing UKG Ready

We did research some other software's. But UKG was the most user friendly and could handle how we collect time and process payroll.

Reasons for switching to UKG Ready

Their time system couldn't calculate our complex payroll.

Kronos WorkForce Ready

PROS

The termination process is less steps than it was in Kronos Workforce Central

CONS

Using WFR is like taking a trip back in time. The functionality of the system is very clunky, and resembles the old dos systems. There is no room to customize to fit our company needs. We were told that this system would free up our team to do other projects, if anything it has increased the time needed to preform. The date sensitivity is very annoying, when we make changes we should be able to enter them with an effective date, but the system uses the date we are entering the employee changes as the effective date. During implementation, we were constantly told 'the system does not do that', or 'that can't be done'. Out implementation process was terrible, and we still don't have everything working. Moving from one Kronos product to another should have been seamless, it was anything but seamless. The implementation team should have been able to look at our company in Central and recreate in Ready, without us having to provide everything for them. This was the worst implementation I have ever gone through, it was worse that SAP, which is very sad. I could go on and on, but I won't. I have a spreadsheet comparing Kronos Workforce Central to Kronos Workforce Ready, if you would like to see it I can provide for you.

Reasons for switching to UKG Ready

We were told that Central was being fazed out and that everyone had to switch to Ready and be cloud based. Which we now see was not true, and Central has been upgraded since we swiched, and we could have stayed with Central.

Time management made easy

It is a requirement for tracking time worked. The ease of the app makes it very user-friendly.

PROS

It is easy to use and navigate. Anyone could download the app and feel comfortable with its use fairly quickly.

CONS

Sometimes it takes a minute to load. When you attempt to log into the app sometimes it takes longer to connect than normal.
