Reviews of UKG Ready
Great Product and Services
Comments: Wouldn't change anything! It has simplified and streamlined all our processes into an easy to use system.
Pros:
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.
Alternatives Considered: Payentry, ADP Workforce Now and Paylocity
Reasons for Choosing UKG Ready: Looking for more service.
Switched From: BambooHR
Reasons for Switching to UKG Ready: Again, UKG met all our needs.
The fact that it covers every HR need in one place is a big plus
Comments: I am addressing the issue of digitizing and automating human resources procedures. When I first joined the firm, there was some resistance to adopting "the cloud." With my increasing use of UKG, I am facilitating faster data access and a more fluid technological experience for everyone.
Pros:
UKG Ready is an excellent payroll administration system for small and medium-sized businesses. Payroll duties can be handled conveniently from any location with online access. Customers are able to automate and streamline crucial processes with the use of automation, artificial intelligence and machine learning, integration, higher productivity, and mobile apps.
Cons:
The thing I despise most about UKG is not a fault with UKG per se, but rather an issue that UKG is likely to face: adoption. Adoption is not as robust as it could be because of a small percentage of long-term employees who are reluctant to embrace change.
UKG for the Win
Comments: As I mention before my job uses this and it is very convent
Pros:
I love this software because you the freedom to view your schedule, request time off, and check your schedule from the comfort of your home. My job uses this, and I absolutely think that it is wonderful.
Cons:
The only con that I have is that it can be difficult to fix your timecard if you miss a punch in or out.
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.
Enhances employee privacy and gives them the right to review evaluations and follow up on their progress according to performance indicators
Comments: UKG Ready has given evaluations the required transparency, enhanced the values of self-criticism among employees and enabled them to manage their relationships and work affairs efficiently.
Pros:
I like that UKG Ready is like an employee's bag. Everything is in the same place, we can easily access information about our job status and progress according to KPIs. I liked the ease of documenting the start and end of official working hours and the accuracy of documentation, issuing a payslip, scheduling vacations or requesting leave directly from the employee's page. I liked the ease of approving goals with UKG Ready, and I liked the ease of sharing them with direct managers by updating them and issuing reports about them. What UKG Ready provides in terms of dashboards that display progress according to each KPI independently, and the transparency of accessing and reviewing evaluations is very motivating to put in more effort.
Cons:
UKG Ready has not overlooked anything, is easy to use, and ensures real-time notifications that keep us up to date with updates.
