Dayforce made payroll processing simpler

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Dayforce from other similar products?

Day force's ability to perform payroll computations in real time is its strongest feature. After an employee punches out, their time is added to their next pay check.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It's great because Dayforce can handle so many different functions, like payroll, time tracking, human resources information system, reporting, and even recruitment. Also, everything is in one place, so there's no need to go to a different system to recalculate when something is changed. Payroll serves my needs quite well, and I appreciate that a lot.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It's not always obvious where to look for a particular file in order to make a necessary change to the configuration. Even while reports have improved greatly, it can still be difficult to modify an existing report by adding a new field, especially when dealing with Payroll or Timesheets.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

With Dayforce, calculating payroll is much easier for both me and my employees. Data from timesheets and benefits systems is reliably imported into payroll.
