How to read the Emotional Footprint
The Net Emotional Footprint measures high-level user sentiment towards particular product offerings. It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
While purchasing decisions shouldn't be based on emotion, it's valuable to know what kind of emotional response the vendor you're considering elicits from their users.

Construction Talk Made Easy.

What differentiates Dayforce from other similar products?
We’re already using Office 365, so having Teams means everything talks to each other—documents, schedules, and task lists are just a click away. I don’t have to juggle ten different apps to get through my day, which in the fast-paced world of construction, is a win.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
One feature I can’t overlook is how file-sharing works. I’m not just talking about tossing files back and forth—Teams integrates with SharePoint, so all our important documents are easily accessible and editable right within the conversation thread. Whether it’s a project blueprint, material checklist, or delivery schedule, everything’s in one place.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There is not a thing I dislike.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you’re in construction and need a reliable way to keep communication flowing across multiple teams and sites, I’d definitely recommend Microsoft Teams. It’s not just for office work—it’s a powerhouse for keeping everyone on the same page, whether they’re in the field or behind a desk.
