Workday ist ein „Leader“ im „2022 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud ERP for Service-Centric Enterprises“

We’re thrilled to announce that Workday has been recognized as a Leader in the first-ever 2022 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Cloud ERP for Service-Centric Enterprises¹ based on our completeness of vision and our ability to execute.

This recognition in the newly created category builds on our five consecutive years as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud Core Financial Management Suites for Midsize, Large, and Global Enterprises.² And it builds on our six years in a row as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud HCM Suites for 1,000+ Employee Enterprises.³ We believe our positioning reflects our role as a trusted global partner for the office of the CFO and the broader C-suite.

We have a clear vision for the future of enterprise software that’s demonstrated with Workday Enterprise Management Cloud. Our unique approach combines best-in-class applications, an extensible platform, and an unparalleled customer experience.  

Workday is a leading cloud solution for service-centric industries, including education, government, healthcare, banking and capital markets, insurance, professional services, business services, retail, hospitality, technology, media, engineering, architecture and construction, and transportation and energy. Our financial management, human capital management, planning, and procurement solutions empower business leaders to play a more significant role in solving their biggest challenges, such as revenue optimization, margin expansion, talent recruitment and retention, supply chain management, cost containment, and business risk mitigation.

By going beyond the boundaries of traditional enterprise resource planning (ERP), our more than 9,500 customers deployed in over 175 countries use Workday to transform the way their organizations operate. In fact, according to Gartner, Workday had the largest market share in 2021 for ERP worldwide SaaS revenue at 19.1% and the largest revenue growth increase between 2020 and 2021 at $738 million, a 19.8% increase.⁴

Providing Insights Across the C-Suite

For finance leaders, 2022 continues to challenge organizations and their C-suites around the globe with rising interest rates and inflation, lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and geopolitical instability. Those who have truly embraced digital transformation and enhanced their ability to adapt amid uncertain circumstances are poised to outperform their peers in the years ahead.

Workday Enterprise Management Cloud goes beyond traditional, rigid, and siloed ERP systems. With our future-ready solutions, customers gain the ability to run effective service-centric businesses by combining people, finance, and operational data from across the enterprise into an intelligent data core, which empowers organizations to make better, more holistic data-driven decisions that factor in profitability, people, and purpose.

As part of our integrated enterprise solution, Workday Financial Management provides a way to collect and analyze data. Workday Prism Analytics accelerates the management and transformation of data for reporting, analytics, or planning use cases, while Workday Adaptive Planning enables customers to better plan, execute, and analyze across the enterprise for a more informed financial planning and analysis (FP&A) process. And Workday Human Capital Management (HCM) helps organizations strategically manage their most valuable asset, keep a pulse on employee sentiment, and adapt to the changing world of work. 

By serving as a digital backbone for service-centric industries, Workday delivers robust, global solutions for the office of the CFO and CHRO, including: 

• Providing industry-specific capabilities, such as funds transfer pricing for banks, cost and profitability insights for healthcare, and project management metrics for professional and business services.
• Connecting to best-of-breed industry systems, such as patient systems for healthcare or policy and claims systems for insurance companies.

Our integrated solutions enable finance, human resources (HR), and operational leaders to gain key insights by automatically combining data from industry-specific operational systems and HCM and financial management systems, as well as information from other third-party sources, such as weather, ratings, and government-reported data, to get a full picture of enterprise performance.

For international design, engineering, and advisory company Aurecon, the ability to extract insights from a data-rich environment helped add value to the management decision-making process. “Workday puts the client or the project in the center of our business, capturing all the data we need to achieve better outcomes for our clients,” says Andrew Muller, CFO at Aurecon. “We’ve always had plenty of data, especially now we’re getting more involved with digital engineering. Now we can use that data to support quality, fact-based decisions.”

Adapt Business Strategies to Match the Speed of Change 

Born in the cloud, Workday was built to adapt. Our cloud-based platform is open and extensible yet secure, making it possible to interoperate with other systems, compose the right combination of solutions, and foster the development of new capabilities whether they’re developed by Workday, partners, or customers. 

Anna Tian, financial systems manager at ChenMed, describes benefits the healthcare organization has experienced using Workday Enterprise Management Cloud. The automation features within Workday Financial Management have improved operational efficiency and helped put ChenMed on track toward the brighter future it envisioned. “With automatic data collection and transparency enabled by Workday, we can have a true supply chain management team. Invoice matching, payments, and other steps happen almost without human intervention,” Tian says. “This kind of efficiency is critical for the growth goals we’ve set for the next four to five years, and Workday allows us to continue to scale and support that accelerated growth.”

With Workday Adaptive Planning, our flexible and easy-to-use enterprise planning solution, leaders have continuously updated data with which to carry out scenario planning, as well as inform budgeting, workforce, sales, and operational strategies.

ABC Fitness Solutions Vice President of Finance Jennifer Mitchell sees Workday as key to the company’s accounting and FP&A capabilities. “It’s all proactively positioning us for efficient, scalable, and profitable long-term growth,” she says. “Having made three acquisitions just last year, we needed more efficient integrations like what Workday has enabled.”

In addition to the extensive functionality built into Workday, we offer the ability to quickly and securely develop industry-specific applications within the Workday platform through our adaptable and native cloud architecture. Whether it’s providing suppliers direct access to enter purchase order requests or implementing a vaccine management program, customers can easily build to meet their unique business requirements with Workday Extend.

Das Potenzial der Mitarbeiter und Mitarbeiterinnen ausschöpfen

Die Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter sind oft der größte Kostenfaktor, aber auch die größte Innovationsquelle in serviceorientierten Unternehmen. Gutes Personalmanagement ist für den Erfolg daher unverzichtbar. Mit Workday HCM können HR-Führungskräfte auf effiziente und umfassende Weise die Herausforderungen in Angriff nehmen, die sich aus den Veränderungen in der Arbeitswelt ergeben. Wie die letzten Jahre gezeigt haben, müssen Unternehmen, die ihre Mitarbeiter wertschätzen, effektive Wege finden, um die kurz- und langfristigen Ziele im Bereich Talentakquise, Mitarbeiterbindung und Optimierung umzusetzen. 

Workday bietet den Mitarbeitern die Möglichkeit, ihre Entwicklung und Karriere selbst in die Hand zu nehmen, wodurch die Bindung gestärkt wird und die Fluktuation sinkt. In aller Welt profitieren Kunden von unserer kompetenzbasierten Investitionsstrategie: Mehr als 1.200 Kunden nutzen die Workday Skills Cloud für den Bereich Talentakquise, -management und Mitarbeiterbindung. Darüber hinaus bietet Workday Peakon Employee Voice Erkenntnisse zu Stimmungstrends. So können Themen angesprochen und Lösungen gefunden werden, bevor sie zu ernsten Problemen werden. 

Workday gibt den Mitarbeitern innovative Technologie und Automatisierungstools an die Hand und bietet ihnen kontinuierlichen Zugang zu Daten, sodass sie sich auf fundierte Erkenntnisse konzentrieren können, die tatsächlich für sie relevant sind. Dies gibt Finanzführungskräften besseren Einblick in den Unternehmenswert und trägt dazu bei, dass die Mitarbeiter positive Erfahrungen am Arbeitsplatz machen, sodass sie ihr Unternehmen – und ihre Karriere – voranbringen können.

Das Londoner Unternehmen Alfa Financial hat den Nutzen integrierter Datenströme erkannt und setzt zur Förderung seines künftigen Wachstums auf die Workday Enterprise Management Cloud.

„Workday hat es unserem Finanz- und HR-Team ermöglicht, Prozesse zu optimieren, die zuvor zeitaufwendig manuell durchgeführt wurden. Es liefert uns außerdem umfassende Einblicke ins Geschäft in Echtzeit“, heißt es von Alfa Financial. „Mit dem Wachstum unseres Unternehmens steigt auch unser Personalbedarf. Angesichts des umkämpften Arbeitsmarkts müssen wir zur Talentakquise und Mitarbeiterbindung reibungslose Prozesse gewährleisten – beim Recruiting und Onboarding ebenso wie bei der langfristigen Talententwicklung. Das ist für unseren Erfolg unerlässlich. Wir sind erfreut darüber, dass Workday unsere Wachstumsziele unterstützt.“

And we continue to add new configurations with each release.  

Our Steadfast Commitment to Our Customers 

Our commitments to delivering an exceptional customer experience and continuous innovation are helping a diverse range of industries and sectors. So, it’s no surprise our customers love Workday: Our 97% customer satisfaction rate is one of the reasons we have a 98% gross retention rate in our 2021 annual Customer Satisfaction Survey. Workday has also been recognized as a 2022 Gartner® Peer Insights™ Customers’ Choice for Cloud HCM Suites for 1,000+ Employee Enterprises⁵ and a 2021 Gartner® Peer Insights™ Customers’ Choice for Cloud Core Financial Management Suites for Midsize, Large, and Global Enterprises,⁶ the the most recent year this recognition was given. 

Jenn Kelly, financial controller at the PGA of America, says, “Our biggest challenges were slowing down, identifying all our requirements, not trying to control everything, and trusting the Workday methodology that our partners from Workday Professional Services shared with us.”

And while we’re proud of our success, we know that it isn’t possible without our customers and partners, which is why we continue to innovate our products and solutions and add new ways for organizations to get value from Workday. As the future promises to continue presenting new challenges, we look forward to welcoming more organizations into the Workday community and providing them with the tools needed to succeed in a changing world.
