Workday GO FAQs

While Workday is known for powering the world’s largest organisations, the vast majority of our customers are actually medium enterprises. In fact, over 75% of our customer base has fewer than 3,500 employees. Our cloud solution is built to scale seamlessly, meeting the evolving needs of businesses at every stage of their growth

Here in Australia and New Zealand, medium enterprises (MEs) are generally considered to have 350 to 3,500 employees, while small and medium businesses (SMBs) can be those with fewer than 350 employees. But this varies from industry to industry.

In a word, no. We’re committed to making it easier than ever for medium enterprises to get up and running on our platform. Workday can scale and be customised to meet the needs of small and medium businesses (SMBs), small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and large enterprises. In Australia and New Zealand, we work hand-in-hand with our partners to meet the specific needs of medium enterprises and accelerate deployment to provide you with the essential HCM and ERP functionality you need at a price and on a timeline you can afford.

Workday AI levels the playing field between medium and large enterprises. From day one, Workday was designed as a multi-tenant cloud with a unified data model. This means that all customers—no matter their size—benefit from the clean, coherent data sets comprised of over 600B transactions per year across 65M+ users, representing organisations of a range of sizes and industries. All this data serves as high quality fuel for training our AI models.

A unified ERP platform, such as Workday, brings together your HR and payroll into a connected workflow that optimises processes and streamlines operations. This means that no matter your size or industry, you gain full transparency across the entire organisation so you can adapt to changing business needs.

Not at all. Workday reduces complexity with streamlined processes, automation, integration, and extensibility tools. The Workday platform unifies your data, so you get an accurate and complete picture of your business in real time across workforce and operations data—rather than separate, siloed views.

Workday maximises the potential of your existing resources, making things easier for smaller teams. Automation, coupled with self-service, gives time back to your teams so they can focus on more valuable work, rather than being bogged down. Workday AI frees up IT, HR, and payroll from manual, repetitive tasks. It allows your teams to spend more time advancing new capabilities and less time on routine operations with the easy-to-consume updates and adaptability Workday provides.

You can benefit from increased productivity and efficiency, optimised business processes, and more engaging employee and customer experiences when you invest in ERP. The Workday platform unifies accounting and operations to streamline workflows. This enables organisations of all sizes to make confident decisions, drive flawless business operations, and empower people for maximum performance.
