Enterprise businesses comprised 43% of the technology buyers researching SAP SuccessFactors on TrustRadius. Compared to other HR management products, SAP SuccessFactors outperforms the market in terms of both the likelihood of renewal and scalability.
A high likelihood to renew score demonstrates that users like the product and are so satisfied with its features, vendor, and price that they don’t plan to evaluate alternative solutions. SAP SuccessFactors’ reviewers gave the product a score of 9.3/10 for the likelihood of renewal, compared to other HR management products, which average 8.7/10.
Furthermore, enterprise software products need to be able to accommodate scale. SAP SuccessFactors scores an 8.3/10 for scalability, while the HR management category average for scalability is 7.8/10.

Of the buyers researching UKG Pro on TrustRadius, 33% were from the enterprise market segment. Like Dayforce, UKG Pro excels in availability, scoring a 10/10.
Additionally, UKG Pro outperforms the HR management category in nearly every rateable attribute, including usability, likelihood to renew, ease of integration, scalability, and implementation. These high scores indicate that UKG Pro is a high-quality product and that its customers are likely happy with their purchase decisions.
