Easy to use and configure, but needs better integration
Breezy HR could be improved with better integration. The only drawback I see is that it's a bit disconnected from other online tests or evaluations that we have to do, which means we may need to engage another tool. There is no easy or seamless way to integrate that information, so people have to go back and forth to fill in that information, and we find it a bit disjointed. Another improvement is in regards to resume filtering. For example, there is no internal solution for being able to score a resume for the relevant skill sets. If we get 100 resumes for a role, how do we stack-rank those files without having to manually read through each of the profiles? There are a few other tools that have embodied those advanced techniques which Breezy doesn't have.
Streamlined time tracking boosts operational efficiency across multiple regions
The time tracking feature is the most effective for employee management. UKG is used in Europe, the United States, Australia, and East Asian countries for HR activities like payroll. The application is like an ERP, providing comprehensive features for organizations, simplifying their processes, and reducing the need to use multiple software solutions.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"A valuable feature is that it provides an easy-to-use and easy-to-configure recruitment process for different roles. It also allows you to customize the recruitment process for different roles, which is very good."
"A valuable feature is that it provides an easy-to-use and easy-to-configure recruitment process for different roles, and it also allows you to customize the recruitment process for different roles, which is very good."
"Pending pay and retroactive pay are the most valuable features."
"The fact that I can see the whole HR information in a single point is valuable. There is a unified view of everything, which is good. Previously, we had many different systems for each part of the information. Now, it is all centralized. It is very good."
"Now that we have cleaned up our data, the reports are much more accurate, and I find the reports to be great."
"UTM has improved our productivity in having our timesheets produced in a timely manner, in order to process payroll earlier than we had with previous payroll product."
"We have gone form 1200 employees processing paper reviews to having everything being online and at our finger tips."
"It allows me to disseminate the information in the way I see fit."
"I have found UTM and the Payroll Gateway to be fairly easy to use."
"I have found the most valuable feature to be business intelligence and Cognos reporting."

"The tool needs improvement on the configuration side."
"Customer Service: 7 - during implementation I believe our consultants were over-worked, so while they were extremely knowledgeable, they were not always accessible."
"I would like to see more consideration in the web to sports teams' payroll."
"Too many updates"
"Recruiting and interfacing the information to payroll are areas with room for improvement."
"I would like to see better platform config and benefits admin."
"Post implementation team - Not going well."
"I would like to see more functionality in the next release to be able to get hours and dollars per calendar month rather than just by payroll in the Business Intelligence reports."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The platform is not affordable but also not the most expensive."
"While I am unsure of the licensing cost itself, the total cost of implementation and licensing for a company with over 5000 employees would be around 6,00,000. So, there are additional costs beyond licensing."
"The pricing depends on the number of licenses we buy."
"I wasn't involved in the pricing part. I'm a user, and I believe it is based on the user count. One thing that is nice about Ultimate is that you can learn how to use the system without additional fees. The learning aspect is the life of a product, and the training was a huge reason why we went with Ultimate. We did have some integration costs. They were a part of the implementation because of the integrations to other systems that we included in our implementation."
"UKG's pricing and licensing model involves ongoing expenses based on the number of employees paid. The initial implementation cost is low when UKG implements it directly. However, when partners handle the implementation, it becomes more expensive since partners don't receive the monthly recurring fees."
"If you're going for the full suite, it can be fairly pricey."
