Easy to use and provides great flexibility and security
Implementing the solution is generally not easy because it depends on our client's landscape. In the last one and a half years, Workday has started a new implementation approach called launch implementation. This approach allows you, as a client organization, to implement Workday in a shorter amount of time, given that you fulfill certain criteria. It depends on the number of subsidiaries and employees you have and their compensation structure. If it's not too complex, Workday provides its clients with this new approach called launch, where they can quickly onboard with the Workday without many complex requirements. The general implementation for Fortune 500 companies is always complex.

Pros

"greytHR has a great payroll system for India."

"Workday is a holistic HR solution."
"I would say that we have definitely seen a return on investment."

"Setting up reports can be a bit tricky."
"One area that could be improved with Workday is the analytics side."
"There is a lot of complexity in the configuration of this solution."
"My opinion is that this solution can improve the overall integrations and add more automation. I think anything that could be on a self-serve basis would work quite well."
"The price could be lower."
"The product must include payroll features."
"They don't have worker payroll in the product. We have to solve our payroll. I hope one day they will be able to have their own localized standard payrolls for all countries."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We need to pay a yearly license for greytHR, which is much cheaper than SAP SuccessFactors."
"It's very, very expensive."
"I rate the product’s pricing a ten out of ten."
"You have the license fee per module, and then you have a kind of annual training fee, which is a kind of add-on. I wouldn't say it is exhaustive; it is minor. Licensing is pretty transparent for most of the part."
"I need to pay for a license. It is expensive."
"The solution is flexible in terms of pricing."
"It is on a yearly basis."
"The pricing is good from an HR perspective, although management gets upset after spending $500,000 a year, every year."
"Workday is moderately priced - I'd rate its pricing three out of five."
