How to read the Emotional Footprint
The Net Emotional Footprint measures high-level user sentiment towards particular product offerings. It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
While purchasing decisions shouldn't be based on emotion, it's valuable to know what kind of emotional response the vendor you're considering elicits from their users.

What differentiates Dayforce from other similar products?
Their INSIGHTS conference has always been fantastic, and the XOXO program is one of our favorites. Ceridian Dayforce provides advanced human capital management tools that help us keep the staff happy and productive. And more successful, which has a direct impact on the bottom line. Ceridian Dayforce helps us in submitting development increases.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
We are very user-friendly, we have an excellent support POD, and we were able to recoup the cost if the deployment was completed in less than a year, owing to human resources savings. Their function that allows you to take time off from work and organize your time is user-friendly. Users will find the mobile app to be simple to use. The enrollment function for benefits works better than planned.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The user interface isn't as user-friendly as it could be. For example, the data entry field is frequently hidden until users move their mouse over it. Unskilled users may wait for the block to open, give up, or contact support because it says to enter, but there is no place to do so.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
High cost, headcount, and time savings. As other payroll systems required more work, processing payroll was a weekly exercise in collective breath-holding. It's a pleasure to work with Ceridian Dayforce. Everyone we've come into contact with is knowledgeable and ready to collaborate to solve worker issues.
