I second the Consultant - we implemented from Dayforce to UKG and Payroll, in particular, had the smallest voice at the table. One of the most insane components for me is during the "pre-check" process, you will not find a simple to review payroll register including both employee and employer data. There is a BI report but it takes a substantial amount of time to run (at least for our population). A consultant will be helpful as you transition from one software language to another... and help you bridge any gaps from the UKG implementation team and your internal customers. We found ourselves often in conflict with UKG's internal expectations and timelines and our internal needs. If we didn't have the consultant to advocate for us, it could have been far more painful. Echoing another thread here, our 401k plan is particular and challenging ... we moved our go live twice to try and have more confidence in the delivered product. Prioritize your comfort and your company's needs as much as you can.

Subject: UKG Implementation
Good morning -
We are currently in the process of discussing the Statement of Work and Master Services Agreement with UKG. We selected UKG after going out for RFP for timekeeping, payroll and HR systems.
If you have implemented UKG, could you discuss your experiences with the implementation? I am hoping to get both positive and negative experiences. We are trying to prepare in advance for the implementation.
Thanks,
Brian Beth
