## Reviews

### "Easy & user friendly" — 4.0/5

> **Brittany** | *July 10, 2025* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Reports are easy to read, easily accessible for printing. All the tabs are smart phone friendly (other platforms I’ve had issues with)
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the app does an update that causes issues or lags but the people who run it are quick to fix it.
> 
> Simply, easy. I’m a user of it, not an admin so I think I use it less but it’s helpful to keep track of everything,

### "Pros and Cons" — 4.0/5

> **Simranjit** | *October 15, 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: UI is simple and user friendly. Able to see vacation, time off, pending request and apprved and their balance. Ability to schedule time off is big plus
> 
> **Cons**: compatability with other softwares. Have to a lot of manual work through excels and stuff just to transfer data into it
> 
> Overall it is good software, gives bunch of options and flexibility. Easy to use by the staff and UI is good however for back end admin staff it might ne challenging

### "Great System for End Users (Employees)" — 4.0/5

> **Milica** | *December 18, 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's very user friendly for the end user. I like how everything is housed in one HRIS and I am able to view all of the employee's information in one easy place. The data is visually easy to read and it's conveniently in one place.
> 
> **Cons**: The reporting function. Creating reports from scratch isn't that simple for users who aren't familiar with how to create reports. I feel like this could be enhanced and simplified so that creating reports is easier. I also think the number of clicks it takes to do certain functions could be reduced by using shorthand or typing and having the system auto-populate information.
> 
> Positive experience overall. We were previously using an HRIS that didn't display all of the information we needed and our employees were never able to view it, so using Dayforce has made our employee's experience with their information positive but also provided them with the autonomy they didn't previously have in our old system.

### "Convenient and easy to use" — 5.0/5

> **Shailyn** | *January 16, 2025* | Insurance Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very easy to navigate, well organize, and is very secure.
> 
> **Cons**: I haven't yet found anything that bothers me about Dayforce HCM
> 
> Quite good, never experienced any crashing, or it being shut down for maintenance. Like I said very easy to navigate, overall, I recommend Dayforce.

### "Convenient and essential for management" — 5.0/5

> **Elgiz** | *December 22, 2025* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is very convenient because I can do a lot on the app, example, schedule and payroll. People can see who they are working with and also  they can book their vacations through the app.
> 
> **Cons**: There is a lot of features that it may take some time for people to get to know how it all works. There's also a bit of trouble when people are clocking in due to the location having errors.
