What differentiates UKG Ready from other similar products?
UKG ready has a specific user base of mainly mid sized businesses and it has a full focus on it's base users whereas other softwares tries to target multiple segments of businesses, that's make them not a good fit for a company looking for a specialized software for their need and their workforce. The software is integrated with advanced AI for scheduling and compliance and it has this mainly two areas where AI has major focus on, that's not limited to these two only but Leave management, custom payroll and much more which makes a big difference when we compare similar tools.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
This tool comes with a flow of tasks that's make it a all in one software for us. This cimbines HR, Time Tracking, Payroll, scheduling and benefits management, all under one platform that helps us reduce time of shifting from one tool to another. This tool is also a great fit for employees as this provides them with a robust mobile app where they can access Pay stubs, requests leave, and it's not only limited to that but the mobile app works offline as well for the time tracking, which informs the head once the network is connected back.
What do you dislike most about this product?
This tool has a steep learning curve, making it difficult for the 1st time users. Although employee say that platform is feature - rich but at the same time, they require a good training to start working on it. Another would be, this product doesn't display pricing publicly but it is vauge in nature, which makes it less reliable.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
My recommendation would be to go for this tool specifically if yoi are a mid cap firm and looking for a robust all in one HR and Payroll tool. Other bigger companies can avoid it as it doesn't have support for that.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Inspires Innovation
