## Reviews

### "UKG Updated Review" — 4.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *27 July 2026* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is fairly easy to use on the web. It is pretty self explanatory after using it a few times and keeping track of all my hours, vacation time, etc.
> 
> **Cons**: The app is so confusing and you have to have additional apps for it to work, so I just never even bother with the app and use the web version. I do wish it calculated how many more hours you need though so you didn't have to do that math.
> 
> After one of the latest updates, I have not been as happy with the app and honestly don't even use it anymore and just use the web version, but the web version I don't mind using.

### "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.

### "I do not recommend this product. Bait and switch." — 1.0/5

> **Clarice** | *24 July 2026* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The only thing I can say I like the most about UKG Ready is that you have the ability to use all of the program's features on both your desktop and mobile.
> 
> **Cons**: After implementation customer service is lacking. The program looks as though it's permanently in an edit screen and is unfinished. It is not user friendly either.
> 
> Customer service is bad. The program is not user friendly and looks like an edit screen. Categories are unusual so finding information is spread out like a scavenger hunt, and not where you think it would be. Directions are scarce. Employees have difficulty operating the system. Porting of information had numerous errors. I could continue. We do not recommend.

### "Ease of use" — 4.0/5

> **Donna** | *16 April 2026* | Mining & Metals | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use, and found alot of positive feedback from workers. The support within the community is helpful sometimes
> 
> **Cons**: UKG team not understanding our needs and hard to navigate reports. EG- Need to know who has not entered times yet that are scheduled to do so.
> 
> Average, i have to wait too long for support and to log tickets and then to wait for costings that are quite costly to our business. There is no notification if you ask a question to the community.

### "UKG Ready review" — 4.0/5

> **Jessica** | *31 July 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: UKG Ready's reporting features are pretty solid, and we've had good luck with data accuracy. The interface can be a bit cluttered at times, but it works well enough.
> 
> **Cons**: We've had some issues with integration with our existing HR system, which took a bit to figure out. Support response times could be faster, but it's not a huge deal.
> 
> I've had a largely positive experience with UKG Ready, using it regularly to manage my team's schedules and payroll. The system is user-friendly and makes it easy to track employee hours and benefits. However, I've encountered some occasional glitches and wished for more customization options.
