Progressing Beyond the HR Portal
People working across separate applications, websites, and systems to conduct workplace tasks often struggle to find answers to basic questions and information when they need it most. To address this challenge, some companies aggregate and promote content, applications, and services with an HR portal. But even the most advanced HR portals are clunky, tough to navigate, and tethered to a desktop or laptop environment -- creating more frustration and friction than ease, and lacking the full context of the person using it. Workday will simplify this heterogeneous environment with a single, cohesive experience for employees that is accessible via mobile devices and underpinned by the rich context and people data within their core people management system -- Workday HCM. With a truly connected, personalized experience, Workday will be able to intelligently deliver the content, support, and guidance people need during critical moments throughout their employee journey.
With Workday's new features and functionality, customers will benefit from:

"Today's HR leaders accept that they must employ a network of solutions to fully support and enable their people, but will no longer settle for a subpar, disconnected portal that adds complexity and friction to the employee experience," said Cristina Goldt, vice president, HCM products, Workday. "Workday will fill the gap where HR portals have failed -- alleviating the frustration that people endure when having to move between various tools and resources. With the power of personalization and intuitive functionality woven into the core HR system, our customers can enable their people to perform tasks easily and efficiently, in turn, boosting engagement and productivity for the benefit of the business."
