In fact, some experts say 70 percent of women rarely or never have orgasms. And yet men put a premium on it for a few obvious reasons: 1 porn and 2 they want to feel like their penis is a sexual hot rod that will make you speak in tongues and throw your vibrator into a volcano. Ob-gyn Heather Bartos explains that vaginal orgasms tend to be deeper and involve more pulsating of the vaginal muscles than clitoral orgasms.
Suddenly sliding away from that peak is disappointing, to say the least. That's doubly true for women, many of whom find it much harder to achieve orgasm during penetrative sex. In fact, according to a recent survey, only 65 percent of heterosexual women consistently reach the pinnacle of pleasure during sex.
But how often do we actually hear the nitty-gritty details of how we might actually achieve those things? Bustle has enlisted Vanessa Marin, a sex therapistto help us out with the specifics. Q: I'm able to orgasm on my ownand can climax during sex by using my own hand or a vibrator. I enjoy it when my boyfriend touches me and goes down on me, but I never orgasm.
To hear a woman say she achieved a vaginal orgasm is a rare occurrence. Historically, there has been a large knowledge gap when it comes to the science of female orgasms. The same study found that less than 1 in 5 women are able to orgasm through vaginal stimulation.
I am a year-old female who masturbates regularly. I have great orgasms quite easily by simply rubbing my clitoris. When I am having intercourse, however, I almost never have an orgasm.
Verified by Psychology Today. All About Sex. Vaginal intercourse can feel wonderful: the physical closeness, the emotional intimacyand for many, the belief that intercourse epitomizes sex.
By Petra Boynton. Is there something physically wrong with me that means I will never orgasm? Should I just give up trying? This may seem like a very silly question, but it is worth considering.
Back to Sexual health. In women, an intense pleasurable release of sexual tension is accompanied by contractions of the genital muscles. A woman may be able to experience more than one orgasm shortly after the first if she continues to be stimulated.
Struggling to hit the high notes in the bedroom and hoping to reach orgasm at the same time as your other half? Or perhaps you're looking for tips to help your female partner climax when you do? Either way, the fact you're asking this question at all is a good start! Great sex is all about experimentation, communication and fun, and if something isn't quite hitting the spot, the best way to boost your sex life and quadruple your chances of achieving mind-blowing orgasms is trial and error.

Plans for a new 39-unit microapartment building on the West Side got the regulatory go-ahead Monday, after a radical redesign by the architect aimed at soothing the concerns of a couple whose house will be surrounded by the new project.
The Buffalo Planning Board approved the proposal by Anthony LoRusso's APL Property Group to construct a four-story building at 129 West Ave., with 550-square-foot one-bedroom apartments designed for moderate-income tenants. The building, whose units will all have Murphy beds to conserve space, also will have a full basement and about 1,000 square feet of first-floor community space.
The project is not subsidized, but the units are designed to be small to keep the market-rate rents low and affordable. The proposed apartments are designed as "workforce housing" for employees on the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus and other parts of nearby downtown Buffalo. The facility is also located just down the street from D'Youville College.
West Side housing proposal features affordable one-bedroom units
However, it will be directly adjacent to LoRusso's previous project, the three-story Allentown Apartments at Maryland Place, located at 295 Maryland, with 59 one- and two-bedroom units. The two buildings surround the single-family home of Eric and Shelley Kempisty, who objected to the planned balconies for each unit that would overlook their home and backyard. They also complained about parking and traffic.
Surrounded neighbor objects to LoRusso's Campus West project
Architect Akos Seres redesigned the building so most of the windows and balconies facing the home would be eliminated, with the exception of a pair of rooftop garden patios.
That was enough to satisfy the Planning Board. The project already received two variances from the Zoning Board of Appeals last week, for building height and a fence.
Site work will begin by May 15, said attorney Marc Romanowski.
Dramatic changes to West Avenue project fail to sway neighbors

How to Add A Referral to a new Customer Account after Signup
If you accidentally delete a referral from a customer account, or need to add a referral to an account, you can. Sometimes customers will forget to type in who referred them, or sometimes you may accidentally delete a referral record. Not a big deal!
For this example, Celie Kerman is a new customer that signed up, but forgot to say who referred her to your business! First, we want to go to Celie Kerman's account, then click on the wrench next to her contact information. Under 'How Did You Hear', select 'A friend told me!', and then underneath 'Text' type in the name of the person that referred Celie Kerman to your business.
Next, go to the 'Referrals' page (use the quick search bar for "referrals", or go to Reports->Acquisition->Referrals.
You'll see there is now an entry for 'Celie Kerman', and the system is prompting you to confirm that it was able to find the right match. In this case, the old customer that referred Celie is named 'Eleen Gygorwicx'. So now all we have to do is hit 'Save'.
We'll see a message that the link was successful. Now, we'll see the referral record for Celie Kerman show up under the 'Pending' tab since she has had less than 2 boxes (she's had zero, she's brand new).
Fixing a Deleted Referral Record
For this example, we'll pretend that we accidentally deleted the record above that we just created. To fix it, first go to the customer account, click on the Wrench next to contact, and reset the 'how did you hear' to none chosen, and delete any text in the 'text' area. These two fields will save automatically as soon as you click your mouse away from the input fields.
As soon as you see a green check mark pop up after both actions, now select 'A Friend Told Me!' and type in the name of the referring customer.
Done! Now you can go to the referrals page and you'll be able to link the accounts.
Make sure the right customer id is in the 'referring customer' column, hit save, and that's it :)

Forte Agent
Forte Agent is a great newsreader. It supports multiuser and can read news from different news servers too. But in order to do that, you have to manually create a directory, copy the ini file and then create a shortcut for each directory. (according to their FAQ. )
Thats another reason you should be using XNews!
When you get down to it, NONE of the NNTP clients is very good.
The program has enough buttons and options already! What percentage of people actually need to connect to multiple news servers?
Don't know about percentages, but I myself have to connect to 5 for general usenet adn technical support.
Brad Clarke
I needed a news reader, and downloaded the free to use early version. Since then I've paid my $29.00 and upgraded to the latest version. I consider it to be a good app, and has been fairly hassle free.
Lawrence Attrill
There is no "admins" edition of Agent. There is promised a 2.0 version (and even a 3.0!) that is expected to address the most common complaints, including working with multiple news servers.

Bangladesh Under 19s won by 9 wickets (DLS Method)
Team India would enter this year's ICC Cricket World Cup under the leadership of Virat Kohli for the very first time as critics are hailing the blue shirts as the top contenders for the world title this year.
The Indian run machine is quite excited to play his first World Cup as captain as he said that this would be the first time he would face all the pressures of a world event from a managerial point of view which was not the case in his previous two World Cups.
"It's something I'm looking forward to. When you play international cricket for so long, after a while, you need a bigger challenge. I don't think there is a bigger challenge than World Cup. I am so excited for it. I think it's amazing," he said in an interview.
Moreover, Kohli also expressed full confidence in the selected squad as he feels that the selectors have given him the best possible team to compete for the world title.

Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India President Rattan Kapur described the 43 per cent tax on hybrid vehicles as "penal", observing that ushering of new technologies should not be so disruptive that the entire industry is wiped out.
"We should encourage the hybrid technologies to coexist with the pure electric as it allows the conventional technologies to evolve with the new," he said while addressing an Automotive Conclave organised by industry body CII here.
Kapur said the automotive industry is concerned as the GST rate on hybrid vehicles at 43 per cent is almost penal compared to the benign 12 per cent on electric vehicles.
"We would like to believe that the high rate on the hybrids is merely a matter of oversight and would be rectified to make it at par with that of the electric vehicles. I strongly urge the government through Girish Shankar Secretary Department of Heavy Industry to kindly take it up with the concerned authorities," he said.
Under the Goods and Services Tax (GST), the tax incidence on hybrid vehicles will go up to 43 per cent from the current level of effective tax rate of 30.3 per cent.
In comparison, pure electric vehicles will attract 12 per cent tax under the GST.

"I blew out the speakers in my boat a week before going on vacation. Erik responded right away and sold me a pair of Aquatic AV "waterproof" speakers that looked and sounded fantastic and for much less than the store brands, but the real proof of their quality came when my boat nearly sank in a heavy rain storm. The speakers got soaked, but they still sound as good as ever! Thanks Erik!"

"Aquatic Audio responded to my inquiry very fast and was more than happy to accommodate my situation. Based locally he was able to come down to my boat with almost no notice.

What is trigger point injection?
A trigger point injection is an outpatient procedure designed to reduce or relieve the back pain caused by trigger points. These small knots can form in muscles or in the fascia tissue leading to myofascial pain.
When Is Trigger Point Injection Used?
Trigger point injection (TPI) may be an option for treating pain in some patients. TPI is a procedure used to treat painful areas of muscle that contain trigger points, or knots of muscle that form when muscles do not relax. Many times, such knots can be felt under the skin. Trigger points may irritate the nerves around them and cause referred pain, or pain that is felt in another part of the body.
What Happens During a Trigger Point Injection?
In the TPI procedure, a health care professional inserts a small needle into the patient's trigger point. The injection contains a local anesthetic or saline, and may include a corticosteroid. With the injection, the trigger point is made inactive and the pain is alleviated. Usually, a brief course of treatment will result in sustained relief. Injections are given in a doctor's office and usually take just a few minutes. Several sites may be injected in one visit. If a patient has an allergy to a certain drug, a dry-needle technique (involving no medications) can be used.
When Is Trigger Point Injection Used?
TPI is used to treat many muscle groups, especially those in the arms, legs, lower back, and neck. In addition, TPI can be used to treat fibromyalgia and tension headaches. The technique is also used to alleviate myofascial pain syndrome (chronic pain involving tissue that surrounds muscle) that does not respond to other treatments. However, the effectiveness of TPI for treating myofascial pain is still under study.
The skeletal frame houses our internal organs. When the frame begins to take an unhealthy shape, studies show that this physical stress can damage our organs.

A colleague – let's call him Mark – reads a proof of the Renault Mégane RS Trophy-R review with an intake of breath and a question: "Should a hot hatchback really cost £50,000?"
I see the point. Hot hatchbacks are meant to be sports cars for the masses, cars that bring fun down to a level that those of us with more modest means can enjoy. And enjoy often.
On this I agree. And the Trophy-R is likely to cost £50,000 when pricing is announced, a number that isn't notably approachable. At the same time, I don't have quite as much of a problem it, although my eyebrows, too, might have raised when I was first told.
But I've since seen the true extent of the changes, I know how long and lovingly the Trophy-R has been developed and, crucially, I know how it makes you feel when you drive it: line up every supercar on sale today and there are quite a lot of them I'd walk past to get into the Renault.
And I suppose the nub of it is that the Trophy-R doesn't feel cynically priced. I mean it is still hot and it does still have a hatch rear end. But when writing out what its rivals are for the review, I would have felt no less comfortable writing 'Porsche 911 GT3' instead of 'Honda Civic Type R', despite the Renault's outright performance being much closer to the Honda's than the Porsche's.

We supply high quality products to our growing customer base including; Coles & Woolworths, Independent Supermarkets, Delis, Restaurants, Catering Companies, Manufacturers, Cafes, & Take-Aways across Australia.
Mr Huseyin Kaya entered the food industry by bringing speciality food products to Australia and selling them in record time. Responding to the untapped demand in the marketplace, a business was born.
Basfoods moved to its first warehouse of 300 square metres on Victoria Street Brunswick under the name Overseas Imports and Exports. Mr Kaya and his son Oljay Kaya worked together to grow the product range and customer base.
The growing company purchased its first warehouse of 560 square metres in Leo Street, Fawkner. The product range and customer base expanded and the company soon had to rent a further four warehouses in the complex.
With strong growth over the preceeding decade, the company purchased land at 423 Victoria Street Brunswick. With this move came a new business name - Basfoods. An increased range and continued focus on customer needs meant that over the following year turnover doubled.
Basfoods launched the Pasha Yoghurt brand. Pasha Yoghurt is the most recognised brand amongst Middle Eastern and Turkish customers.
Basfoods launched its Royal Fields label. Royal Fields quickly became known for its high quality.
It became clear the growing business needed a Managing Partner with sound operational skills. Basfoods has always been about recruiting good people who are as passionate as we are.
Tony Tracas joined the company bringing his valuable experience working with customers and a hands-on attitude strengthening the Basfoods team.
Construction at 419 Victoria Street was completed and the Basfoods Direct business was born. Basfoods now had two large facilities totalling almost 7000 square metres side by side to service its growing wholesale and retail customer base locally and interstate.
Basfoods set up an office and warehouse in Sydney and invested in a local sales team to service its route trade and supermarket customers.
Mark Djemal joined Basfoods as General Manager bringing with him considerable expertise in the corporate world that would benefit the business through its next phase of growth.
Basfoods began supplying to national retailers Coles and Woolworths.
Basfoods continues to grow based on a solid philosophy of; working closely with our suppliers from around the world, suppling quality products, bringing new and exciting ranges to the Australian market, maintaining value for money pricing, and of course continuing our famous customer service.

UltiPro reviews

Best payroll solution
Yendi C.
Opmerkingen: It help us speed the payroll process by 45% more fast.
Pluspunten: Ultipro best trait is the ability to customize the settings or features in a way to mold it on how the business works.This is a very intuitive tool, that even our non tech people can manage and control their own data and find everything they need on UltiPro. The cloud provides a real-time information including reports and dashboards that has the ability for employees to be able to navigate seamlessly and manage their information is made an impact. Very easy to use.
Minpunten: Very limited on the workflow process in web based. Some features are slower than other, not sure if its because the data is too much. This are small bumps compared to the benefits that this tool offers, so overall it doesn't have too many flaws.

Ultipro Review
Melissa P.
Opmerkingen: We've had some issues with time and attendance but overall it is doing what we need it to do: employee self service, payroll, benefits admin
Pluspunten: We were handheld during the implementation which was great. Compared to our previous system (zuman) there is much for functionality but there are still things UltiPro doesn't have that we need.
Minpunten: It doesn't have a fully functioning org chart that's printable (where you can see the entire organization, not just by each manager)
Beoordeeld op 31-12-2019
It's okay but not the best
Geverifieerde reviewer
Opmerkingen: The biggest benefit of UltiPro is that it is an all in one system that is used by all of HR and also used for our Payroll and Accounting departments. It is easy to be able to sort through all issues across the company through one representative. I also find it is efficient at tracking benefits such as healthcare, sick and vacation leave accruals.
Pluspunten: The Applicant Tracking System (ATS) with UltiPro is the main feature I use in my day to day, and it's just okay. If used as directed it can be a good platform for tracking and collecting applications but unfortunately, my company does not use it properly so to me it seems lackluster for the price. The reporting functions through the core are pretty good and customizable. Overall I would say it is relatively user-friendly and only took me a few days to get navigate the system on my own. I like that you are able to set up shortcuts on your dashboard and see all your accruals on the dashboard.
Minpunten: My issues with UltiPro mostly stem from my company not properly using it as they should, so overall I like UltiPro. I would suggest they have an option to create tracking links so when a position is posted we can see where each applicant was directed from. Advertising efforts aren't as fruitful when we aren't able to do all the tracking right in the ATS.

Flexible System - Rigid Support
Brice W.
Pluspunten: I loved the open workflow builder and approval process engine. Our company had roughly 700 employees and it was great to have the open ability to make, implement and change approval processes on the fly. We had the following additional modules and they were all great: Recruiting, Onboarding, Learning Management, Performance Management, and Compensation Management.
Minpunten: The system struggled with benefits management and administration. It took 8 months to build some pretty simple feeds to our carriers. Even then they were poorly built and the information was not accurate. The benefit open enrollment aspect of the system was good, our employees loved it and our benefits enrollment percent went up substantially. However this came with a lot of manual backend work because of the fragile feeds and the need to check every record against the feed.

If you are considering transitioning to UltiPro, be extremely cautious.
Brian B.
Pluspunten: Please ignore the "Pros" and "Cons" headers. This review was written as a whole. My company transferred from PayChex to UltiPro in mid-2018. To be fair to UltiPro, the undersigned was not present for any kind of sales pitch, and is not familiar with any of the promises that were made by the UltiPro reps to our company executives. The decision to make the transition was executed without the knowledge or input of the undersigned, who handles approximately 220 employees in a fast-paced, 24-hours-a-day, 7-days-a-week, high-turnover retail operation. Most of our employees are hourly entry-level retail staff. The transition was extremely painful, and we received very poor support from the UltiPro transition team, all the while trying to run the regular, already-demanding day-to-day business of our 24/7 organization. Their "support" consisted of providing us with a number of empty spreadsheets, and expecting us to extract an excruciating amount of employee data from PayChex and enter it into their spreadsheet in their alien format. Again, the undersigned was not present for any sales pitch. I would strongly advise any company considering a transition of this kind to insist that UltiPro shoulder the burden of the transition i.e. give them full and complete access to any information retained by your previous payroll/HR provider, and insist that they and their team transfer the data. Confidentiality of information, while always a concern, should not be an issue – UltiPro is going to have the same information retained by your current payroll provider regardless of who transfers the data. Even in a perfect world, where UltiPro shouldered the burden as described above, some additional work is bound to fall upon your shoulders. In my case, a perfect example was the implementation of a more automated paid-time-off (PTO) accrual system and accompanying PTO request/tracking system. Our company had always done this manually, meaning that the undersigned would have to calculate each qualifying employee's vacation and/or sick leave time and submit it to UltiPro. Calculation and submission of this information to UltiPro through their spreadsheet was a considerable but gladly-accepted chore, given the expected benefit of an automated PTO system. A spreadsheet was completed and submitted to UltiPro for implementation into their system. Several months later, while preparing to go "live", UltiPro informed the undersigned that they would need updated PTO totals. I always love to spend hour upon hour repeating tedious, mind-numbing work. But we're not done yet: After going live & receiving numerous calls from frustrated employees complaining that they were receiving errors whenever they attempted to request vacation time, the undersigned discovered that most of the PTO balances submitted to the UltiPro transition team in the spreadsheets had not accurately transferred into the UltiPro "TIME" module. Almost all of my employees had a balance of zero. The UltiPro transition team's assurance that they would manually compare the spreadsheet with the balances and make the appropriate corrections went unfulfilled, whether due to technical or human error, and one of the undersigned's co-workers was tasked with checking each of the balances one-by-one.
Another major disappointment with UltiPro is the number of different modules. There is the UltiPro CORE module. There is the UltiPro TIME module. There is the UltiPro TIME OFF AND ALLOWANCE module. There is the UltiPro BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE Module. There is the UltiPro CUSTOMER SUCCESS PORTAL, which not only requires a separate login and password, but UltiPro recommends you use the Internet Explorer browser when utilizing it, while recommending the Google Chrome browser for the others. The separate modules leave plenty to be desired in the transfer of information between them i.e. a change to any one piece of employee data may be require multiple entries – one for each module. Multiple modules also mean multiple different departments you may need to contact if you have an urgent issue you need resolved. If you are hoping (as I was) that UltiPro would mean only one phone number or one representative that could handle any of your customer service issues, forget it.
Another major disappointment: with the transition from PayChex to UltiPro, we went from having a payroll processing deadline of 4pm for next-day delivery to a payroll processing deadline of 12pm for second-day delivery of hard-copy paychecks. To be fair, every time the undersigned has failed to meet this infeasible deadline (to wit: every single payroll), UltiPro has been able to get the checks to us on the 2nd day following completion. But if a holiday falls between completion of your payroll and your company payday, your employees will not see their hard-copy paychecks until the 3rd day following completion.
Another: their inability to customize the interface for our company's needs vs. the needs of all their other clients. Example: while entering newly-hired employee data into their system, there are (as would be reasonably expected) a multitude of data fields to complete: i.e. name, SSN, address, hourly rate, etc. etc. One of the necessary fields UltiPro requires for every employee is TIME ZONE. Our company only operates in the U.S. central time zone. Can the system be set up so that this field automatically defaults to U.S. Central Standard Time? Nope. Why not? Because other UltiPro clients operate in other time zones, or in multiple time zones. Repeat this "because our other clients…" answer for a substantial number of other required data fields. It's simply more chances for things to be entered incorrectly; more invitations for other complications and issues.
Another: as issues, difficulties or complications arise, UltiPro expects you reduce the problem you are having to writing for entry into their separate CUSTOMER SUCCESS PORTAL, where you receive a claim number, and hopefully a response of some kind within 24 hours. Describing an issue in writing is often challenging & time-consuming, depending upon the complexity of the issue, even for someone with exceptional writing skills. If you're lucky, your problem might have an easy solution. If not, you might engage in a friendly little game of phone tag over the course of the next few days. I'm sure UltiPro loves this complaint system, as it most likely serves to discourage complaints or service requests from being made at all. To be fair, there is an UltiPro Rapid Response phone number, but they ask that you use this line only for urgent matters affecting a payroll with a payday within 72 hours of your call.
I have yet to experience the standard end-of-year duties and chores with our new UltiPro system. I'm sure it will be an absolute delight, all things considered. I'm afraid. Very afraid. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers, and if you are considering making this transition, BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL.

I love the UltiPro experience.
Yeni O.
The UltiPro user interface is intuitive,easily customizable ,easy to navigate and i have been impressed with how UltiPro has continuously improved over the years ,with new features being added regularly. UltiPro has been superb for my team as a tool for time keeping.
Cognos analytic is a stand out tool on UltiPro , and simplifies the process of reporting on our payroll. I like the standardized report ,and the freedom to edit the names and modify them to fit our business need is priceless.
Minpunten: Ultipro's workflows are very limited . I will like the user interface remodeled in a way that we are able to view the "compensation-history" from one page , for every staff in the organization.

All in One Employee Management Software
Michele T.
Opmerkingen: I think it's great. You can manage your time if you missed a time punch, you can alter it. You can request for time off and get it approved in the same place. It's a great software for employee management.
Pluspunten: It is very safe to use and I can do everything in this software. I clock in and out, I can view/change my benefits, change my direct deposit, and my personal information. It keeps everything in one place and very easy to use. It's not complicated to figure out. The human resources department has information there as well.
Minpunten: There isn't anything I really do not like. I would say it is difficult to get some documents to come up under the employee document page.
Beoordeeld op 22-10-2019
Great HR/Payroll Option
Mary G.
Opmerkingen: Great experience for the end-users. Very intuitive UI, easy to find what you need, and the implementation was a very smooth process. Take care when considering your implementation time frame. Many times we think of new FY but check to see where that falls with holidays on both sides.
Pluspunten: Very easy for the end users to use for their day to day needs. Great support and available resources from UltiPro throughout implementation and after that to ensure we got the most of what was available. There is a learning component for content, but that still needs more work. Highly customizable, modular approach (get the features/functionality you actually need), and integrates well with other systems.
Minpunten: Can fall on the higher end as far as cost, but worth the money for the features and support. The learning feature definitely still needs work, so I would not consider this an all-in-one solution as far as HR all the way through learning and development. Take care when choosing a separate LMS as many require an annual or one-time fee to connect to UltiPro and other HR solutions.

Faulty Software
Angelina V.
Opmerkingen: My overall experience with Ultipro is not so great. I would not choose this software for my companies first choice in human resources.
Pluspunten: I like most about the software is the ability to look at your time punches and its accuracy. You are also able to model your pay with taxes and deductions configured too.
Minpunten: What I like least about the software is that I lost wages due to a glitch in the system. When I emailed them about it they forwarded it to my employer who wanted to fire me over it. I emailed Ultipro to bring their attention to the issue I experienced using the software and to get reimbursed for the monies the glitch had cost me. No resolution came from it.

Brittany T.
Opmerkingen: I enjoyed using this software, it was simple to set up and use.
Pluspunten: I used this for work in the past to keep track of payments and hours, it was very easy to use and navigate.
Minpunten: I never ran into any issues using this software, and I have no complaints about it. Easy to use and set up.

UltiPro is a great investment
Jeanne B.
Opmerkingen: We have had a favorable overall experience with UltiPro since going live in October 2016. The support team we have now is incredibly responsive to our requests and the functions in UltiPro have improved the quality of our internal processes. When there have been issues with support, etc. UltiPro has been very quick to resolve the issue. They take client feedback very seriously.
Implementing UltiPro has allowed us to streamline many functions that were performed manually with paper documents. Internal staff transfers, promotions, salary changes, etc. are now handled within the UltiPro system (including approvals) where prior to that, paper forms had to be manually signed off by multiple managers before submitting them to HR for processing.
Our benefit enrollment process has moved from an Excel enrollment form to an online enrollment that feeds directly into the payroll system once approved.
A goal tracking system for employees has been created in UltiPro that allows employees/managers to create goals, rate them, track them with comments, and then show completion dates.
Employees may now access their personnel record in UltiPro and make updates to home address, marital status, dependent/contact info, tax withholding as well as immediate access to W-2 forms and ACA forms.
In addition, UltiPro offers an online PTO tracking system where employees can request time off and managers can immediately approve electronically.
And, of course, what I like most is the amazing reporting capabilities that UltiPro offers. Besides the hundreds of standard reports already created, I can either edit/modify current reports or create my own report.
Minpunten: This is rather minor, but there are functions I would like to create in UltiPro that I don't have access to do as an Administrator. I must submit them to UltiPro Support Team and some of the functions require an additional cost. It's not a lot, but it's just the principal.

Opmerkingen: We launched with UltiPro a year and a half ago. The implementation team was very knowledgeable of the product and services offered. They were able to come to the house on many occasions for hands-on training prior to the launch. We also traveled to an On-Site Class near us. These were great to be able to talk back and forth through issues you had been experiencing. I recommend taking notes for questions you may have before going. In the Learning Center Online, there is an abundance of course and previously recorded webcasts for you to learn from. The levels range from the beginner to more complex detailed positions. The Security-Based features are wonderful for companies with multiple subsidiaries. The reporting has many standard reports built for you. It also has the ability for you as a customer to build unique reports to fit your companies' needs. Onboarding has been a way for us to eliminate a lot of paperwork and scanning of policies and documents. It has taken a while to get in groove with so many locations hiring all our seasonal employees at the same time. However, in the end this is saving enormous amounts of time.
Pluspunten: Security-based roles are great for top down management. Payroll processing is a lot faster. We have completely moved away from paper checks. The Community Groups and Knowledge Hours are a great tool to have to continually learn from other customers on how they are using the same programs in their company. Many customers are very quick to respond to simple or complex questions. UltiPro has an extensive collection of resource materials that are searchable to help quickly. In the beginning, the Quick Tour videos were a life saver. You learn so much information at once that you don't retain it all. These videos are brief and to the point. they are housed on each screen that it pertains to which is wonderful. Also, every screen has a "Things" I can do here. Another good tool when learning where to locate all of the information.
Minpunten: For departments housing only human resource and payroll employees, the reporting is a very slow process to learn. While there are many courses offered, majority of which are online which is more difficult during the initial transition. The Rapid Response is not so rapid. You call in to log a case and wait for someone to call you back. Unless you are completely locked out of production, you could be waiting a long time for a return call. Logging a case on the website is not much faster. However there you are able to fully describe your issue and attach any documents needed to be examined.

My managers call it UltiPoo...
Erica K.
Opmerkingen: We began with UltiPro at the end of this summer, going from an antiquated HRIS system to what we (correctly) thought would be a significant upgrade. And while the cost does reflect that; and it is an upgrade; it has been an extremely rough road getting there. Technical issues, the amount of data required (most of it being a manual entry, in part to our antiquated system we were on before) and the level of depth you will go into building this system is outrageous. Each "silo" was assigned a technical SME who helped us build the program. Everything is incredibly customizable and easy to change once it is set up.
Pluspunten: Assigned help along the way, so you knew who your person was. You can build a system to your liking. Makes some functionalities very easy, like building out an "opportunity" or requisition. The system has some great possibilities and can support a lot of different functions through customizable reports. A lot of integrations into external vendor systems that make background checks, job posting, benefits, 401K very easy. Once it is BUILT, I can see how easy it will be to use.
Minpunten: Each "silo" of the UltiPro function is usually created by that department - recruiting builds out recruiting and onboarding, payroll builds payroll, TD builds performance, etc. Problem is that WE, the builders, don't usually know how the other team will build their system so often times they don't talk well. You build it over a series of meetings with your SME, with can make it disjointed to build. There is a different SME for each function, so if I want to build a report that pulls from my onboarding module, I have to talk to a different SME because the onboarding SME doesn't know Business Intelligence SME. Building it is a second full-time job for your team. We had to build out own training for our employees on how to use the system because each system is so customizable, you won't have a packaged training you can plop in front of your employees.

Best HR site I have personally used
Jamie S.
Opmerkingen: Allows me to view all my HR information all in one location.
Been using this site now for our clocking in and out at work for 5+ years.
Very easy to use. Site has never been down, always up and works.
The site is speedy to navigate.
Allows me to easily and quickly log in and out.
Allows me to pick easily pick my insurance every year and has all the information I need on the site.
Allows me to quickly get a brief overview how many sick/personal/vacation days I have and will earn.
Can hop in and request days off very easily and then view a yearly calendar to see what I have already added in the future and the past.
We also use this for our performance reviews. Not a fan of those but the site makes it work OK.
Site times out at 30 minutes and it gives you a countdown before it gets there, so it makes it easy for me to see when to clock back in for lunch.
I can also view my paycheck stubs here.
It is very nice to have access to all of this in one location.
I also hear it integrates with AD credentials but we have not implemented that.
I have used other HR websites such as Kronos and this one is so much easier to use.
Minpunten: Honestly I cannot think of anything negative to say about the website. I have never had a problem with it.

UltiPro - Everyone Should Use It!
Tiffany W.
Opmerkingen: UltiPro has helped us integrate our 2000+ decentralized workforce into one HR system. We have a lot of HR users in our locations that are resistant to change, but we have been able to prove to them what Ulti can do for them and the time it can save. We use Ulti for HR, Payroll, Benefits, Open Enrollment/Life Events, Recruiting, Onboarding, Performance Management and Time and Attendance. It's great to have all of this in one system, with easily reportable data. As a decentralized workforce, we have many customizations. Ulti can handle all of them with ease. I truly can't say enough good things about the product, and the company.
Pluspunten: UltiPro by far has the best customer service and training I've experienced (I've used ADP, Ceridian and SilkRoad products in the past). The system is user friendly and intuitive and customizable to meet our needs. In addition, the company truly cares about customer feedback - and works to implement solutions quickly. It's an all around solid HR system, with many modules that integrate to give you some great functionality and workflow.
Minpunten: I hate to truly list a "con" here as I know Ulti is constantly working to improve their products. I would say though that the Recruiting tool needs continuous ramping up to become a true competitive ATS system. It's working for us now, but we need more from it. The GREAT thing is that every month Ulti is rolling out new features and updates to this module. I'm confident they will continue to enhance this product and make it a great tool for us.

UltiPro is the primary UI that I use to access all my personal work information.
Nathan B.
Opmerkingen: I am able to keep track of my personal work information in one convenient software and mobile app. It allows me to view my payment history, my PTO statuses and many other things. I like being able to view all this information in one easy to use software.
Pluspunten: UltiPro is an easy to use Software that provides me with easy access to all work related information. The mobile application is great when I am on the go and need to get access to a quick piece of information. It allows me to view all my tax information as well as insurance information. It allows me to export W2 and W4 information when doing my taxes and does so in an easy way.
Minpunten: I would say the biggest Con for the software is the mobile app does have some missing features of that compared to the PC software. On the mobile app I am not able to access some features that normally I would be able to. Other than that I do not have many Cons for this software if anymore at all.

Opmerkingen: Overall, am satisfied.
Visual appeal
Rapid Response is available to assist 24/7!
Highly customizable
Minpunten: Quality of troubleshooting depends on the person you get first on Rapid Response or your Rollout Team, so 50% of the time, it's great, and 50% of the time it's sub-par. There is a lot that needs to be developed in the Onboarding and Recruiting Gateways. Some simple things are not available, or work in a strange way (i.e. the way someone needs to submit a background check).

Want to Love, but it needs focus on system users functionality
Danielle P.
Pluspunten: I like the fact that we are able to customize and build the software package to our needs. The software has some amazing functionality that work well for our business. I like the vendor because the value of the company being "people first" shows in the way they care for their employees. I think that filters down to the customers.
Minpunten: I would like Ultimate to finish things that need to be corrected that are known system flaws before they move on to new technology. It would be comforting to know as the system administrator that the system processed right from beginning to end before all the other "cool" features come out. Also, I wish the project focus was for system users first and then the employee user. Example, they listened to customers when we asked for the ability to change labels. That is great and the employee users are happy about that. But then they stopped the project without thinking what the system user would need. It is simple when you think about it. Everything that goes into Ulti - we have to report on. So that label project should have included those label changes in BI. Now the reports and the system will not match. Can you imagine having your payroll staff turn over and then trying to run a report based on names you don't have in system because the staff before you used the label edit feature? Nightmare.

Wonderful, comprehensive system for all of your HR needs
Geverifieerde reviewer
Opmerkingen: Efficiency and tracking personnel changes
Pluspunten: Ultipro has the type of versatility and customization features needed for small and large companies alike. It's highly customizable so that you can use it for all of your HRIS needs. What I like most about Ultipro is the integration across multiple facets. Your employees' files are stored electronically and the permissions you give the employees allow you to use the system to track and approve changes to position, title, pay, benefits and employees can change their address and names, all electronically.
Minpunten: Ultipro's customer service is probably the worst feature as getting anything changed or having to troubleshoot issues can take more time than you have, especially within a large corporation.

So much capability, so hard to navigate!
Geverifieerde reviewer
Opmerkingen: Overall, if you are only looking for basic information as an employee its easy; find paychecks, find personal info, etc. As a long-term solution, unless you do a great job of training and modifying the tools and menus, its easy to get lost; both because of the interface is not clean and it has too many options.
Pluspunten: Ultipro has a ton of options of what is available to you; I've seen it now in two different companies. In both scenarios, the capabilities of the software were not utilized to their fullest extent. It looks as if Ultipro can do far more than either used it for. The load times and menus for initially finding information are fast to navigate. Information on different pages is presented clear as well. PDFs and other files generated by the system load fast.
Minpunten: The presentation of the material, menus, hotlinks, etc. is unwieldy and jumbled. It is hard to sort through all of the pages past initial launch ones. Drop down menus, if you move your mouse off of them, disappear; in 2019 that doesn't make sense. The ease of use is definitely missing. As mentioned, too, I've seen it in two scenarios, one with a company of 2000+ and one with around 200 employees. All of the features are not used and yet you can still open up menus and pages that do not have relevant information; if thats the system, it needs to be fixed, if its the user/moderator of the business, they need to be encouraged to get rid of it from the systems administrator from Ultipro. Just not an easy and clean tool to use. The Time Clock tool as an employee is very difficult to use, too; multiple pages/clicks to get to basic information is overkill. Even then, it has a very mid-range power user feel to it... if you don't know what you're doing you may break it!

10+ years of success
Glenn G.
We have been using Ultipro successfully in cloud for over 12 years.
-We recently started using onboarding and conditional workflow approvals and have been able to go almost 100% paperless.
-We have been able to leverage Employee Self Service(via SSO) and modules such Open Enrollment and Life Event to streamline employee benefit elections
-Cognos Analytics, is an extremely powerful business intelligence reporting tool that allows us to schedule reports, burst information and set alerts
-We were able to use Ultipro's auto-population feature to generate 1095's for ACA Compliance
-You have a dedicated support rep, but when needed the quality of the Rapid Response support channel can be hit or miss
-As a client who has been Ultimate Software for many years, we had to customize a lot to achieve what we wanted, but as new releases come out many of these customs are no longer necessary. Unfortunately, unwinding some of these customs to replace with new core functionality can be a challenge

UltiPro- is it right for you.
Carolyn J.
Opmerkingen: Our organization's primary focus in HR is reducing turnover and we use the bsuiness analytics for our Turnover HR reports. This report has been crucial to identifying departments/teams that are seeing trends of influx in turnover. When identified in these reports we partner with these teams share the info with the leaders and are able to turnaround the turnover in that area we are experiencing. We also use these reports for our Affirmative Action and it has saved a lot of time being able to save these report templates to use them annually to report out on.
Pluspunten: I like the tasks red start at the top right of your screen as a shortcut to go to my tasks that are waiting instead of going into each individual employee profile. It has nice features to save you time, such as when I am assigning distribution of performance reviews I can select multiple employees instead of re-filling out and distributing the form to each individual employee.
Minpunten: Learning how to set filters to get the end result of the reports in Business Analytics is complex. Many filters are labeled similar so it is hard determine which one you need.

Ultipro is great for your jobs health benefits and work related topics
Geverifieerde reviewer
Opmerkingen: My experience with UltiPro has always been great for the 4 1/2 years I've been with PSAV (Presentation Services Audio Visual). The old way we used to ask off for days from work was writing it on paper and then submitting to your Director of Operations. Now you just log in to UltiPro and go to scheduling, and then click on time off request and submit. It is so much easier than how we had to do it 4 years ago before they introduced UltiPro to our intranet websites.
Pluspunten: It is very easy to navigate when you're searching for some info on your health benefits, and looking for other higher up employees if you have issues you need to report such as conflicts with other employees. It list everyone above you without having to ask your manager for email addresses from say the person who handles HR issues.
Minpunten: Nothing I have always found it easy to navigate and if you can't figure something out say for instance logging into some of our companies intranet websites for training and other purposes it has a step by step solution for anything you can think of company related.

Ultipro provides consistent, easy to use HR services
Geverifieerde reviewer
Opmerkingen: I've been on both the end user and HR setup sides of UltiPro, so I have multiple opinions on it. For the most part, I can see how HR and management likes it. UltiPro cuts down on a lot of manual lookup and integrates many tools and features into one package. And if you're an employee who really only uses it for time&attendance, then it's not really a big change. For the most part, I like using UltiPro and it's a solid HR MS that helps me manage my team in a more concise manner.
Pluspunten: It's nice to be able to view an employee's information via a report. I recognize that you won't be able to gather all the info but having a consolidated PDF generated makes some of my duties a bit easier to begin with. I also really like the modules that accompanies UltiPro. We've used the main modules such as Payroll and Attendance, but it's nice to have things like Recruitment and Workforce Analytics as well. As an aside, I think that UltiPro has pretty strong online customer support. I've almost always found a resolution within a business day or so.
Minpunten: It can seem a bit... redundant at time. I feel like some features that I have to go through should have already been expressed to another person, and I shouldn't have to input them again. For example, the time-sheet feature feels like it can be incorporated to add minute schedule changes and unexpected TO off a bit better. Also, some of my team says it's a bit tricky for them to find pay-stubs or that it might be delayed in showing up, but I've personally never had that happen.

Ultipro is great!
Michael M.
Opmerkingen: Overall the product works great, and my company states it is an affordable alternative.
Pluspunten: We have been using Ultipro for about 4 years, and it works great. We manage our time sheets, as well as employee performances in the program.
Minpunten: My biggest con as a user is having a difficult time telling when I punched out, or if I had just punched out minutes ago. This causes a lot of dependencies.

Leander Family Pride Festival and Story Time draws over 200 demonstrators
LEANDER, Texas - On Saturday, over 200 people demonstrated outside of a "Family Pride Festival and Story Time" event held at the Leander Public Library.
The event was initially slated as "Drag Queen Story Time," hosted by the public library.
After receiving backlash and in the "interest of safety," the library dropped the event.
"We understood there were some concerns about how the event was placed on the agenda. How people were screened, how staff resources were gonna deal with that. So, we decided to cancel," Leander public information officer Mike Neu said.
Neu says the library has routinely held events with guests who are not screened. Now he says they're reviewing their policies.
"I'm here in support of an event that was canceled due to the cowardice of a few city officials." said Clara Short.
The event was picked up by the "Church of the Open Cathedral," who still hosted it inside a rented room in the library. In a Facebook post, the church said a drag queen scheduled to attend could not make it, so it was officially renamed "Family Pride Festival and Story Time," but that did not hamper the controversy.
"I don't know if there's much material difference between what was going to happen and what's happening now," Cedar Park resident Brandon Clay said.
Clay said he felt it was important to attend the event to support his "biblical view that marriage is between a man and a woman."
"It seems like the other side is going against that norm, a biblical norm, and they're actually pushing children to start accepting the deviant behavior." he said.
Leander resident Angela Williams echoed Clay.
"I just want kids to be kids. I don't want kids to have sexual indoctrination," she said.
Miss Kitty Litter ATX countered claims of "indoctrination."
"We have no interest in indoctrinating children." she said. "Just kind of read and share a message of inclusivity and kindness and I don't think those are terrible messages to put out there."
Of all the messages shared Saturday afternoon, Libby Onks, 14, who attended the event with her mother and brother Travis, 6, says she took away the message "It's okay to be who you are."
"It teaches people and people my age it's okay to be who you want to be," Onks said. "It's okay to be who you are and what you like."
Story Time was a ticketed event that sold out in advance.
Leander had a large police presence at the event and fire, park, and media personnel were on hand as well.
