Why choose Paycom over Dayforce?
Trade inconsistent support for actual dedicated service.
World-class service means fast response times, not being treated like a number in a queue. From implementation to ongoing training and support, we provide you with a single point of contact who understands you and your needs and knows our single software inside and out.
Dayforce only provides dedicated support for an extra fee. And even then, how do you know its team truly cares about your success if it doesn’t meaningfully help you without a premium?
Put employee data at your command — not out of reach.
With Paycom, you don’t have to search our software for the employee data you need. Simply ask IWant™. Our command-driven AI engine searches employee profiles and management dashboards to deliver accurate results in a flash — at no additional cost.
Dayforce’s AI tools not only cost additional fees to use, but also do not provide instant access to employee data, withholding the insight you need to make informed decisions about your workforce.
Manage all HR and payroll seamlessly — like you would never see with Dayforce.
We don’t just claim a seamless experience; we actually created one. Our tools are built and housed by us, all in a single software. Data is entered once and flows seamlessly and securely throughout. Any data changes made in one tool populate to the next. No patchwork of apps. No data reentry.
Dayforce claims to be a “unified solution.” However, with recent acquisitions, including the purchase of a learning and development platform, it’s easy to question the truth of this claim.
Measure employee usage and get ROI that isn’t just talk.
We help clients maximize their ROI with a comprehensive approach to user adoption. Our easy-to-use software drives employee engagement, while our analytics tools provide real-time visibility into usage. This allows us to optimize adoption and provide additional training to ensure long-term success and a greater return on your tech investment.
Dayforce offers no way to effectively gauge employee usage or identify ways to maximize ROI. Why trust a software that can’t even prove its value?
