Takes a while to get an understanding on how UKG consultants and support work. A lot of it is not customized, and a lot of time and dedication is required from the internal resources to understand how the system works and what needs to happen to make it work for the operational needs. If it wasn’t for Axsium, we would still be in the initial stages of the project.

Leave more time for piloting & researching the business needs. Unfortunately, we rushed through discovery/piloting to implement. If we were given more time to launch some of the issues at implementation would have been discovered via store pilots.

I wish we would have known about this partner when we initially went through implementation with UKG. We kept asking for restaurant experienced consultants but never got any which caused some of the issues we had. We had to pause go live due to this. I would have preferred working with Axsium over UKG for the implementation from the beginning.

Continue to ask about industry ‘best practices’ and research multiple options. We met some challenges sending all our labor standards from Opus to UKG, seemed like Axsium hadn’t encountered this issue before, but we eventually got it resolved. As for UKG, we had issues with a custom report. We had to push and escalate that issue longer than expected.

The overall organization by Axsium was pretty disjointed throughout. There was not a good mechanism that was used for organizing the project plan. Things got added to a spreadsheet line by line but there was never any way to know when a task was expected to be complete.

The release notes from UKG were not accurate and/or clear at times. Ashley Richard with Axsium was an AMAZING partner and obtained the information and clarifications for our team. Axsium partner and their associates are fantastic to work and collaborate! They truly value the relationship and respect following the client’s processes.

When moving from WFR to WFD, system configurations can not be copied over. You will need to manually “re-build” all configurations. This was not included in the scope of work which required a change order to our budgeted hours.

The issues we have are with the complexity of our own company but also some limitation in the software. Our partners at Axsium have all been extremely knowledgeable and helped up solve on-going problems and helped up set up new policies and continue to help in our ever changing environment.

If I were to change one thing about Kronos, it is that they have some of the same retrictions with time off plans that are use as it relates to timecards. For example, edits cannot be made to time cards once a pay period is closed. The same holds true for assigning a accrual profile but many of the changes related to assigning an accrual profile are retroactive (ie promotions or changes in status full time to part time)

On an engagement of this size that has multiple efforts, some related, some not, there should be a period of time where Axsium guides us as a partner to better support the consultants needs. This could include a series of discussions with internal experts on process, environment, configurations, and organizational structure. This will help to establish a set of documents and trainings that can be leveraged for all future consultants that are brought into future efforts.

Michael provided us with an objective counterpoint to recommendations being made by the UKG Dimensions implementation team. He helped validate our concerns and plan for the longer term. We had a somewhat negative experience with our assigned UKG team because we think they were inexperienced and disorganized. This was not due to Michael (Axsium). Michael helped us survive the implementation. I am rating Michael in this survey, not the UKG team.
