It has several features that allow for great documentation of staff information. It is a great way to keep track of employment historical data. ----- ### "UKG Ready or Not?" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *26 February 2026* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I really like all the features in UKG Ready and it's easy-to-use interface. It's an all-in-one platform and has so many uses. > > **Cons**: UKG Ready has long loading wait times and after updates I need to put all my information back into the app. > > Overall UKG Ready is a good application all things considered, even with it's flaws and shortcomings. ----- ### "Looks good but doesn't feel good" — 2.0/5 > **J** | *20 March 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: UKG Ready has a slick frontend and they do provide a detailed training library that is usually quite helpful. > > **Cons**: While the frontend is slick a lot of functions are BURIED underneath other menus and tabs, end users cannot stand using it for booking time off or logging hours (myself included). It's a pain to actually use the system, even after having it for a few months now. Support after implementation has been very lacking and when not lacking, just plain frustrating. > > The product looks great but when all's said and done, it tends to overcomplicate a lot of functions and the layout of the system is just awful for end users and administrators alike. ----- ### "UKG Ready has been a benefit for our organization" — 5.0/5 > **Terry** | *7 April 2026* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: UKG Ready is a full service HRIS. In particular, I really appreciate the service that we receive when we put in a ticket. Of course the salesperson makes UKG sound great, and of course the demo provided always runs fantastically, but we all know in the real world that something unexpected will happen that requires extra assistance. When it does, I am happy to report that the service provided by the UKG team has been consistently very good. Their experts are knowledgeable, helpful, and seem to actually care about getting things right. > > **Cons**: We have multiple employees across the US and around the globe, and that complexity does rear its head from time-to-time in the system. Some state and local taxes require a lot more effort than I wish they did. Some of the system limitations tied to global locations and currencies require creative solutions to solve. But overall, the good far outweighs the bad. > > I am happy with the decision to move to UKG Ready. We moved from a full-suite PEO to Ready and it was a massive change. UKG has been a good partner for us and so long as you are willing and able to invest the time during implementation, to ask questions, and provide the necessary institutional knowledge when it is needed, I suspect your experience will be good as well. ----- ### "It's good, could always be better." — 4.0/5 > **Jeannette** | *16 April 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Everything is in one location, no need to use multiple services. The reports are fairly easy to pull information needed. > > **Cons**: When I submit a case for assistance there are some times that it takes days to get a response. When I ask for a call back there are several times that they send me a message with what they did. Some reports I'm not able to get certain information and have to pull multiple reports and combine them to have all the data needed. > > Overall it is good, no big issues. Except, when I want to talk to someone about pricing on adding a 360 file feed between UKG and our Retirement provider they will not just talk to me so I can get the info, they are wanting $500 just to talk to someone, if I decided to do the file feed or not. ----- Page: 1 / 41\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/419228/Kronos-Workforce-Ready?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/419228/Kronos-Workforce-Ready) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
