"The solution is beneficial overall."
"The solution's initial setup was straightforward."

"Sage makes all the information accessible, like pulling a file because an employee needs something ASAP. It's all in the system. It's easy to find old reports if I need them for payroll purposes. It might take days to do some of this work by hand."
"The most valuable features of Sage People are the reports that are useful for decision-making and the API that can be integrated well. Additionally, the solution can be accessed from mobile devices onto the cloud."
"I guess I would say maybe that it is a more robust system."

"Dayforce has its gaps like every HR system, but nothing comes to mind at the moment."
"The reporting could be improved."
"Management and reporting of the GL costing could be improved."
"I would also like to see some improvement in standard reports. A standard report should be available to pull the required information for Affirmative Action Plans. I do not think I should have to build or create one."
"The user interface is not great."
"The integration with our payroll system could improve. However, it is managed by another company."
"In my opinion, the performance management module of this system could use improvement as it falls behind compared to other specialized performance management platforms."

"There were a couple of things that we wanted to customize, but we couldn’t do it ourselves."
"Its stability could be better."
