## Reviews

### "Dayforce - Reliable, all-in-one package for the majority of your HCM needs" — 5.0/5

> **Shaun** | *17 June 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: All in one, start to finish employee lifecycle solution&#10;Onboarding and recruitment modules are leaders in the field &#10;Ability to thoroughly cover payroll and scheduling compliance for both Australia and New Zealand&#10;Both custom forms and workflows create genuine ability to fill any gaps you find in processes. &#10;Customer Success Management genuinely fights for their clients &#10;Uptime and environment support is reliable&#10;Integration options are vast and reliable
> 
> **Cons**: Upgrade cadence is too frequent, leaving me chasing my tail as an admin&#10;General support without escalation can be slow at times &#10;Some modules are still North American Focused (Benefits and Compensation specifically)
> 
> From the perspective of a system administrator, Dayforce is a reliable, thorough HRIS/HCM package that touches all major items in an employees lifecycle - Ongoing maintenance can be time consuming, but the overall experience for end users is worth it. Onboarding, Recruitment, Engagement and scheduling are best in class modules and worth the effort to implement.

> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use - Extremely efficient system - The Implementation studio is an amazing tool that helps improve employee experience and efficiencies. Has Streamlined payroll processes - Speedy payruns.
> 
> **Cons**: Dayforce is complex to configure due to how large the system is. Support can be a little slow but nothing extremely notable.
> 
> Overall, Dayforce HCM has been an outstanding business decision due to immense efficiencies, improvements to employee/candidate experience and streamline payroll. As for All in Ones, Dayforce is and will be the top of lists if I ever am in the position of commissioning a new system.

> 
> **Pros**: I use Dayforce for work and is my new favourite amongst the rostering platforms. Training tasks can be completed from Dayforce and it allows for details about training and upcoming shift information. The homepage layout provides a suitable amount of personalised content regarding upcoming work preventing endless searching. The platform is also easily accessible from the web and the app.
> 
> **Cons**: Be weary of any potential extra costs to gain access to extra features
> 
> It has been a positive user experience and easy to use. I have also enjoyed the app’s layout and variety. Due to this I prefer it to its competitors

-----

> 
> **Pros**: Reports are easy to read, easily accessible for printing. All the tabs are smart phone friendly (other platforms I’ve had issues with)
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the app does an update that causes issues or lags but the people who run it are quick to fix it.
> 
> Simply, easy. I’m a user of it, not an admin so I think I use it less but it’s helpful to keep track of everything,
