> **Pros**: I like having everything in one place, from payroll and benefits to performance reviews. It's convenient to be able to write reviews about your co-workers on the platform as well.

### "Reliable, All in One HR and ERP Platform" — 5.0/5

> **Michael** | *30 January 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What stands out most is how everything is centralized in one place. Core HR tasks like payroll, time off requests, benefits, tax forms, and career information are all accessible without jumping between different systems. The interface is clean and easy to navigate, so routine actions take very little effort. Real time reporting and analytics make it easier for leaders to make informed decisions, and the built in workflows and role based permissions help keep processes consistent and compliant. It also connects well with other business tools, and with additional configuration it can expand beyond HR into a full ERP and financial platform. Overall, it removes a lot of friction from day to day work.
> 
> **Cons**: Some of the more advanced functionality is not fully available out of the box and requires upgrades or extra configuration to unlock its full potential. For larger or more complex organizations, the initial setup and customization can take time and careful planning before the system feels fully optimized.
> 
> The overall experience is dependable and straightforward. Regular users can quickly find what they need, whether that is checking pay details, updating tax documents, or submitting time off. Transactions process quickly and payroll accuracy is consistent, which builds trust in the system. For administrators, the automation and reporting tools reduce manual work and provide better visibility across the workforce. When properly configured, it can grow from a solid HR platform into a broader operational system that supports both people and financial data in one unified environment.

### "Highly recommend Workday for all size companies and sectors" — 5.0/5

> **Arka** | *2 January 2026* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: After starting at a new company, I found that Workday was excellent for onboarding task management. The requirements are itemized and quickly refresh once completed, helping me stay on task in a new environment that requires significant amounts of time for onboarding.
> 
> **Cons**: I'm still having some trouble using the organizational chart/tree lookup function. I think some training videos for this and other features would help a lot.
> 
> Workday is super convenient and all-in-one. They occupy a good niche in HR management for internal employees and external applicants. I doubt any other software is up to par.
