Fine once mastered, mastering takes a while

The capability is clearly there but our small HR team spends more time administering the system than we expected, and simpler tools we used before were kinder to generalists.

Absence management across countries just works

HR used to field fifty routine emails a day. WX self service has taken most of them away and the team finally does actual HR work.

Self service adoption was immediate, staff book leave and grab payslips on their phones without training.

Cons

Nothing that has made us regret the decision.

Self service the staff genuinely use

Absence rules for each of our countries are configured once and just work. The days of manually checking whether someone in another office gets a public holiday are over.

Org charts and reporting lines are finally accurate because they maintain themselves from the records.

Cons

The performance module is solid but plain, no complaints on function, few compliments on style.

Deep system, worth the learning curve

Migration from our old system went cleanly and the data quality gains showed within weeks. Some workflows took two attempts to configure the way we wanted.

Does the heavy lifting well

Good experience overall. Implementation overran by a couple of months which coloured the first year, but the steady state is reliable and the staff like the portal.

Worth every penny of the project

Our people data was scattered and contradictory. Now there is one record per employee and every downstream system, including payroll, works off it.

Manager dashboards mean team leads answer their own headcount questions.

Honestly minor, mostly the interface aesthetics rather than the substance.

Two years in, would choose it again

Once our administrator got certified the system opened up properly. Before that we were using a tenth of it, which was our fault as much as anyone’s.

Everything the auditors asked for at year end came straight out of the system. First clean HR audit we have ever had.
