Like

Talent management encompassing performance optimization, talent acquisition and recruitment, establishes a seamless foundation with strong outsourcing capabilities through platforms such as Workday, ensuring uninterrupted performances.

Like

Like

1) Activity Dashboard 2) Attendance Tracking 3) Ad Hock & customizable reporting 4) Very good service & support 5) Good amount of Features & Functionality

Dislike

User interface is a bit old. Also, customization options are not available, and handling dashboards is challenging due to persistent lagging issues. Exporting from these dashboards is notable cumbersome. Lastly, to go back to previous pages, is not that straightforward and sometimes you need to exit and restart from scratch.

Dislike

- Not integrated with payroll as it was managed by ADP

Dislike

Took time for training all team members. Got little confusing for new team members, as the tool has extensive functionality. Training Videos can be very useful.
