## Reviews

### "Employee data together in one place" — 5.0/5

> **Edwin** | *July 29, 2026* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I liked most about Workday Workforce Management is how it brings workforce planning, scheduling, time tracking, and employee data together in one place. The platform provides useful AI-driven insights that help managers make better decisions by identifying workforce trends, staffing needs, and potential scheduling issues. The reporting and statistical analysis features are valuable because they help teams understand labor costs, employee availability, productivity patterns, and operational performance. I also liked the cloud-based approach because employees and managers can access information from different locations without relying on traditional on-premise systems. The integrations with other Workday modules make it easier to manage HR processes, payroll, and workforce data without moving between multiple applications. The interface is generally organized, and once users become familiar with the system, daily tasks like approving time, reviewing schedules, and analyzing workforce metrics become much easier.
> 
> **Cons**: The biggest challenge with Workday Workforce Management is that it can feel complex for new users. There are many features available, but learning where everything is located and understanding the different configuration options requires time and proper training. Some smaller organizations may find the cost difficult to justify compared with simpler workforce management tools, especially if they do not need all of the advanced capabilities. While the AI and analytics features are helpful, they depend heavily on having accurate workforce data, and incorrect information can affect the quality of insights. I have also noticed that some processes can require too many steps, especially when making configuration changes or handling less common scenarios. Customer support is generally helpful, but resolving more complicated technical issues can sometimes take longer than expected.
> 
> My overall experience with Workday Workforce Management has been positive, especially for organizations that need a complete workforce solution with strong reporting and cloud capabilities. The platform provides detailed workforce analytics, scheduling tools, and automation features that help managers improve planning and reduce manual work. The AI capabilities add value by helping identify patterns and trends that may not be obvious through regular reporting. I appreciate how it connects with the broader Workday ecosystem, making employee information and workforce processes easier to manage across departments. However, the platform requires investment in training and configuration to get the most value from it. The user experience improves significantly once teams understand the system. Overall, Workday Workforce Management is a powerful enterprise tool that works best for companies looking for advanced workforce management, statistical insights, and long-term scalability.

### "Great Program\!\!  A bit on the pricey side though..." — 4.0/5

> **Amber** | *January 18, 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> I like all the features available for the Workday Payroll \&amp; Workforce Management program.. It's user friendly for all of our employees using it to date. It's a little bit on the pricey side.. A bit more than a few other programs I compared it with at the time of final purchase. Otherwise so far so good with Workday\!\!

### "Mixed Experience with Workday" — 3.0/5

> **Marcia** | *January 28, 2025* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Streamlined time tracking and easy access to pay slips
> 
> **Cons**: Unable to clock in or out from phone, not sure if it's an issue with the app or specific to my company. PTO requests can also be confusing to navigate as a new user.
> 
> Overall an ok app, it serves it's purpose but it can be difficult to navigate for new users. I also occasionally experience slowdowns perhaps due to our company's large user base

### "Workday, Fun Look and Easy to Use" — 5.0/5

> **Nikki** | *November 13, 2024* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Moving from Paylocity to Workday was a breath of fresh air. The platform is intuitive and engaging.
> 
> **Cons**: I did find running reports to be a bit of a challenge. If you don’t know the name of the report, it’s tough to search.
> 
> Great\! It has a fun look and it’s easy to use.

### "A time clock app with some perks" — 5.0/5

> **Andy** | *April 7, 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I use Workday mostly for clocking in and out everyday and submitting time sheets. I’ll also use it for Workday Learning, which consists of learning modules relevant to my company. I’d say altogether it’s very straightforward to use.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish that I could reorganize apps on the Home Screen of the mobile app to better suit what I use most. But other than that I really don’t have any complaints.
> 
> Overall I’ve had a very positive experience with using the app. Clocking in and out is simple enough, and Workday Learning is a good way to learn some new information.
