### "Best user interface out there"

December 4, 2025

5.0

Overall I am very satisfied with the platform and would recommend it to anyone that is in search of a similar software.

Pros

I love the ease of use with the platform. Everything in one place makes everything so easy. One platform covers everything!

Cons

There is not much not to like about it. The only thing I would say is the mobile version is a bit cleaner than the desktop.

### "Easy and Quick to Use Workday"

December 30, 2025

5.0

Overall, I have had a very good experience with Workday. It is very quick to clock into shifts and go back and check my hours.

Pros

The best thing about Workday is the ease of use. It is very easy to operate, and the menu is simple to navigate.

Cons

The user interface of Workday could be improved. It looks a little outdated and the layout of the main screen could look cleaner.

### "Happy User"

June 4, 2025

5.0

No grudges—just applause! It really made handling different tasks so much easier. and later application and employee management as well.

Pros

I can’t stop talking about the pros; it’s such an easy and life-saving tool! I’ve used it for everything from onboarding to scheduling, and honestly, it works wonders across the board.

Cons

Nothing major, but I did notice that signing company-specific legal documents isn’t always straightforward. That option still seems to be missing or limited.

### "Not the easiet product to use"

May 23, 2025

2.0

Not great - there are some definite improvements that I would recommend for future versions and/or updates to the system

Pros

Tracked employee and contractor hours. Also fairly easy to enter vacations and work functions into the system.

Cons

The amount of time it took to process from page to page was completely unnecessary. Some entries also disappear.

### "The go to standard overview tool for employees"

February 6, 2025

5.0

Workday was easy to navigate, overloaded with functionalities. I joined the company and resigned using it. It was the standardized tool and helped me navigate corporate life easily.

Pros

The in depth FAQ and support was good, it was easy to navigate and covered all features, including employment period, payslips, all under one site.

Cons

Even though all functionalities were covered by workday, sometimes due to mismatch of wordings (like the paygrade levels), companies would use external software or at times would have to explain the things on workday once more in person.

### "The all in one HR tool"

July 24, 2025

5.0

Pros

The simplicity of the tool and the fact that it is centralised. Meaning no need to go from one tool to another for submitting PTOs or expense report

Cons

The interface looks a bit dated. It is not the most visual pleasing tool but it gets the job done which is really what matters

### "Workday: Review"

March 19, 2025

5.0

My overall experience is great, I've really appreciate the ease of use and other employees can also attest to this. Great tool for our HR team

Pros

What I like most about Workday is how it holds everything our company needs to operate. Employee management through workday is excellent.

Cons

The thing I like least about Workday is the occasional system maintenance that occurs during my work hours preventing me to use the application.

Pros

What I like most about Workday HCM is that it makes managing my personal work information easy and convenient. I can view my pay, benefits, time-off requests and performance reviews all in one place.

### "Recommended platform"

November 28, 2025

5.0

appreciated that Workday HCM provides a unified platform that streamlines HR functions, making processes more consistent and reducing the need for multiple disconnected tools.

Pros

Automatically extracts candidate information from uploaded resumes, reducing manual data entry and speeding up the recruiting workflow.

Cons

For every firm, I have to create a new account. I hope there could be some common data or common space.

### "Workday Program Review - CSR Role"

October 1, 2024

5.0

I used Workday on a weekly basis while at a Senior Customer Service Respresentative role. The interface was intuitive and it had notifications to elt me know when there was a completed lesson for the learning section. Never had any major issues signing up for or attending these lessons.

Pros

Great learning classes for understanding day to day operations or specific lessons. It was super easy to learn with videos and powerpoints to handle a Senior CSR role.

Cons

Nothing in particular stands out as an awful elemtn. Perhaps it could categoriuze more useful portions together like the lessons and less common sections like the birthdays in another area?

May 12, 2025

5.0

### "Overall, a Good One-Stop-Shop for Employees"

April 8, 2025

4.0

Overall, I use workday frequently and enjoy using it as a tool. I like that most of what I need to find is in one place.

Pros

It's easy to navigate to where I want to go (pay, time off, etc.)

Cons

Having to toggle between certain things has too many clicks. Like requesting time off, for example, I have to manually enter several inputs to get the output I want, and it never saves. Or task items/inbox items are confusing because I get two notifications for them sometimes, and I'm not 100% sure if I've completed the task at hand or not.

### "Overall a great product!"

May 19, 2025

5.0

Managed it as an HR Manager and a Project Manager. Was able to build the platform to suit the needs of both functions.

Pros

The ease of managing tasks, the worker view is user friendly. Prompts for required fields is always helpful to ensure all information is input.

Cons

It has a few more input screens than other software. Could be revamped to make it a quicker tool for HR professionals.

### "Workday Review"

May 5, 2025

5.0

Pros

It's easy as a user to input time and submit timesheets for approval. Also easy to submit time off requests.

Cons

When you need to correct the time to a time office request, you have to delete the request entirely and resubmit vs. just updating the time.

### "Always Evolving HR System"

November 7, 2024

5.0

I enjoy using Workday HCM as it's a one stop shop for our company's HR data. Moving to Workday was a big improvement from our previous HR system where we had an account per country, totalling to over 10 accounts. I would say there is a steep learning curve in the beginning as an Admin and even for employees. And the training and certificates are overpriced so I have had to learn how to configure/use Workday through other mediums.

Pros

It can be used globally. The user interface and usability is easy to understand (similar to Facebook's interface), the ability to customize, the different modules and features it supports. The tool is always evolving as the company has 2 releases every year.

Cons

It is created for the US by the US. It does not accommodate for international laws and compliance resulting in us having multiple tools to support international countries.

5.0

Workday has been a helpful tool for all who use it. It's user friendly and doesn't regularly lag or disconnect.

Pros

I like the easy accessibility through the mobile application.

Not many, workday has always been a useful tool for employers and employees needing to access important information regarding pay and other financial inquiries.

### "Simple intuitive user interface"

June 12, 2025

5.0

Overall very good. As I have stated I am just a user. From what I experienced, because it is so simple, it makes training others on it very easy.

Pros

As a user of workday, I like how simple the interface is. It is intuitive to new users, and makes navigating the site easy.

Cons

The way our IT department has it set up we cannot access the site off site. I do not think that is specific to the software, I think it is specific to my company.

March 2, 2026

5.0

Pros

I like having everything in one place, from payroll and benefits to performance reviews. It's convenient to be able to write reviews about your co-workers on the platform as well.

Cons

The user interface can feel a bit rigid and 'corporate.' Sometimes, simple tasks like finding a specific tax document require clicking through too many sub-menus

### "Workday Review 2025"

February 1, 2025

4.0

Overall my experience has been positive. As previously mentioned it has a user-friendly interface, strong automation, and seamless integrations. It combines HR, payroll, talent management, and benefits administration in one platform, reducing the need for multiple systems.

Pros

What I like the most about Workday HCM is its user-friendly interface, strong automation, and seamless integrations. Not to mention the UI is easy to navigate making it a better time for employees and employers.

Cons

What I like least about Workday HCM is that setting it up can be time consuming and resource intensive. Also while Workday offers flexibility, certain customizations require technical expertise which isn't very user friendly of Workday.
