590 Workday Adaptive Planning Testimonials

“And because those changes are fully audited, this helps streamline our compliance with SOX.”

"The biggest benefit of using Adaptive Planning has been the ability to produce reports. It is much easier to create key management reports now because Adaptive Planning is the only place in the organization that houses data across all platforms, including headcount reporting, unit sales, and service revenues based on the number of machines in the field."

“The ability to build scenarios to understand the impact of COVID-19 and inform decisions would not have been possible without Workday Adaptive Planning.”

"Are we happy with Workday? Yes. Would we do it again? Yes. We are now embarking on the global deployment for 50-plus countries and the rest of the 65,000 employees."

“It was important to implement a system that let us confidently make critical data-driven decisions with real-time reporting, gain increased visibility into our workforce and performance, and move forward with better management of compensation costs.”

"Workday is helping us drive optimization within the company and HR. With global processes, the quality is aligned across countries and ensures global managers and HR can work more efficiently."

“Workday really helps managers increase ownership. Sitting with employees, you don’t have to say ‘I’ll speak with HR’ because Workday makes it easy to answer questions in real time. It’s overall more empowering for managers and employees.”

“We were relying on separate, manual systems to monitor client-facing, billable engagements, and there was very little operational visibility into each engagement. It was sometimes difficult to allocate resources to a client project or to understand the margin on a project, and any forecasting was done manually—with potential errors creeping in. If there was a dispute over the number of hours a consultant had worked on an engagement, for example, we had no means of validating that time and the inevitable consequence was a loss of revenue.”

“The preconfigured business processes in Workday helped us further professionalize our HR business and processes—rather than forcing us to start from scratch and customize a solution.”

"The data architecture in Workday is very different from other systems. We have the ability to view data in a multidimensional way and analyze it in ways that were not previously possible."

“We are continually impressed with Workday Payroll’s modern architecture, elegant user interface, and easy-to- use employee self-service capabilities.”

“We also had a history of keeping our systems around for a while. When looking for a replacement of our mainframe system, we knew we wanted a solution that we could use for another 15 to 20 years.”

"What I love about Workday Expenses is that it’s mobile and easy for our employees to use. With over 400 employees out in the field working day to day, having the ability to process expense reports via mobile is crucial."

“The legislature has pressed all public sector entities in the state of Texas to first and foremost move from on-premise to cloud-based solutions, from homegrown solutions to solutions that are managed by a third party. All recent regulations over the last four years have said we must look at the cloud first.”

“The skill sets required to support this legacy payroll system are disappearing in the market and many members of our staff are approaching retirement. We believed that very soon we would either not be able to acquire the resources, or the cost to acquire the resources would eventually go up by 20%, 50%, 100%, 200%.”
