584 Workday Adaptive Planning Testimonials

"Setting up new organizations with the right level of visibility and aligning management chains in Workday are smooth and seamless."

"From a professional perspective, it gives us more time to sit back and analyze what the data is telling us versus just reporting on the data, getting the information last minute, and having to run to the next meeting and report on the numbers. It actually gives us a couple days to sit back and ask, ‘what is the data telling us."

"With Workday Adaptive Planning we were able to drive our annual variance to less than 1%. For some drivers, even lower. And that is remarkable."

"Now, every improvement we make, is across our whole group of companies and impacts every employee in all our countries."

"We have to make the right strategic decisions at the right time. We needed a unified system to ensure that all our financial and people-related data would be secured in a single location, with easy access on demand."

“Implementing Workday has truly been a transformation project for us. The key benefits of Workday were that it allowed us to standardize and simplify by streamlining processes while maximizing security.”

"The first tool we deployed was used by 100% of employees worldwide."

“Workday helps us bring the right level of technology to personnel globally at a time when the pace of technological change is accelerating.”

“Even confirming the basics, such as how many employees we have, was difficult, We had no single HR system-of-record. We were using Excel spreadsheets. If we wanted to get a headcount, we would need to ask for the information and then combine it. It took almost a week—at which point, it was already out of date. We had counts that excluded contingent workers, people who were part-time or on sick leave. There were no consistent rules.”

"Spend as much time as you can understanding how the business works and how digital transformation will help the business work even better."

“We act with our partners to protect health, enhance life, provide hope and respond to the potential healthcare needs of seven billion people around the world.,

"We couldn’t have done what we’ve done with Workday with our old system; it wouldn’t have happened."

“We found a lot of the things we considered nice to have or even critical—we could easily turn these on, Some were just delivered with the release and some had to be configured. So we had that choice and the flexibility to decide and prioritize which ones we could handle. We can decide within our team when to turn features on.”

"The most important benefit we’ve realized from Workday is standardization and efficiencies across the system. With Workday employees have one security model, one source of truth."

“We are student-focused and very much an academic institution, But fundamentally, we still manage people. We have HR issues, just like anyone else. Before Workday, we were operating with an old legacy ERP system that was designed with a number of other colleges. And for some time, we’d known we needed a more efficient system.”
