## Reviews

### "Powerful enterprise HR platform with strong analytics, though complex to deploy" — 5.0/5

> **Elon** | *30 April 2026* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I liked most about Workday HCM is the quality of its centralized data model. In practice, employee information, approvals, org charts, talent data, and reporting are managed in one ecosystem. For example, this makes headcount monitoring, workforce planning, and governance much more reliable than using disconnected systems.
> 
> **Cons**: What I liked least about Workday HCM is that implementation and administration can be demanding. In practice, the platform is powerful, but configuration, change management, and user adoption require strong internal ownership. It can also be expensive for smaller organizations.

### "Workday HCM Makes Everything Better and Continues to be a Game Changer" — 5.0/5

> **Rick** | *30 January 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Having previous experience at companies that utilized multiple systems integrated together where we had to manage multiple integration error logs and such I really love that Workday HCM is a truly "core" product that brings all the modules HR, Onboarding, Payroll, Benefits, etc. together into a single system.  Also, like that there is a reporting component built into the product so that as we configure new features we can also report on them.  Also, it is beneficial in that it is translated/translatable so it can be used globally and also has a mobile interface so users can utilize it via a mobile device.
> 
> **Cons**: During the early stages of Workday I was not sure I was going to like it as coming from multiple platforms that was familiar with to a way more robust single platform was a learning curve and initially thought that Workday was very vanilla in that certain basic things did not seem configurable, but over the past few years Workday has become 2nd nature as have become more familiar with the product and the Workday Product team has continued to listed to customers on Workday Community and enhance the product to make it better.
> 
> Workday has really grown on me and continues to evolve and get better.  I do not see any other platforms out there (Oracle HCM, SuccessFactors, etc) that perform like Workday does or are investing and taking the strides that Workday is currently taking.  I see Workday as "best in class".  Is it perfect - no, but my experience continues to get better with each release.

### "Great for HR, but not as a LMS." — 2.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *17 November 2025* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about Workday is that when it does function properly as an LMS, it does well and is able to run SCORM packages as expected. I also like that Workday does track several key components needed for training records and that Workday strives to improve its LMS and how learning partners, like myself, can customize campaigns.
> 
> **Cons**: What I like about Workday is that it does have trouble reading more complex SCORM packages that require tracking of a completion with a quiz that has multiple attempts. There were several back and forth with the Workday team to see what was happening, but no solution was given except to re-evaluate how the SCORM package was set up.
> 
> Overall work day is really easy to use for HR means but when it comes to their LMS it does need several improvements to be made so that it can be used as a true learning management system.

### "Powerful, flexible and user friendly for Payroll" — 5.0/5

> **Rachelle** | *2 February 2026* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very user-friendly interface that’s easy to learn and navigate.&#10;Highly flexible and customizable to match our specific payroll processes.&#10;Streamlines payroll processing and reduces manual work and errors.&#10;Strong reporting capabilities with configurable reports and dashboards.
> 
> **Cons**: Workday is so highly customizable that it can become complex quickly, and configuring or changing certain workflows often requires more time and expertise than expected
> 
> Workday has been an excellent solution for our payroll processing. The interface is intuitive and user friendly, so it’s easy to navigate even for less technical users. What I appreciate most is the flexibility and level of customization—reports, workflows, and fields can be tailored to match our specific payroll processes and policies. Once configured, payroll runs are smooth, accurate, and consistent, and the system makes it simple to track changes and audit activity. Overall, Workday has streamlined our payroll operations and given us much better visibility and control.

### "One Place for all your Enterprise needs" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *30 January 2026* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Unified HR data for global workforce management&#10;AI-driven talent and skills management tools&#10;Integrated payroll with real-time analytics&#10;Configurable workflows and business processes&#10;Powerful reporting and predictive analytics&#10;Employee self-service and mobile accessibility
> 
> **Cons**: Complex navigation and frequent updates can slow user adoption as they don't have all the resources to catchup with the updates and latest technologies.
