Features
UKG Pro includes many payroll features. However, we want to note its Smart Tax Search feature.
Smart Tax Search is beneficial for companies that don’t want to handle the complexities of tracking and updating tax rules for individual employees, but also don’t want to use a third-party service provider. This feature handles all tax calculations for federal, state and local payroll taxes in the U.S., and federal and provincial/territorial taxes in Canada.
Smart Tax Search updates all tax calculations automatically each quarter so companies stay in compliance with the IRS. It also automatically calculates the correct taxes to withhold per employee, based on where the person lives.
Target Market
UKG Pro serves a wide variety of industries, such as finance, hospitality, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, and non-profits. Below, we’ve listed some of their clients:
- Bloomin’ Brands
- Culligan International
- Feeding America
- HonorHealth
- Kawasaki
- Major League Baseball
- Red Roof Inn

Implementation/Integration
UKG Pro is available as a cloud solution with a per-employee per-month subscription. This is ideal for companies that want to avoid the costs, complexities, or IT resources that come with maintaining servers and hardware. UKG houses the data and handles the maintenance and upgrades.
UKG Pro’s approach to implementation is an on-time, on-budget deployment. With fixed-fee pricing customers pay a flat fee based on the organization’s requirements and the level of UKG Pro functionality selected. UKG Pro’s activation process is designed to deploy the software in the shortest time frame possible. And customers don’t begin paying until after their solution is live.
The customer receives a dedicated account manager, who will be on-site to determine requirements and design, handle implementation, and provide training. This dedicated account manager remains as the customer’s first point of contact throughout their partnership with UKG Pro.
Customer Service & Support
UKG Pro provides a variety of included support services at no extra cost, such as phone, email, live chat, an online customer community, Rapid Response Hotline, and online and instructor-led training. Training is included at no additional cost and in unlimited amounts for all customers.
In 2013, it also launched a distance-learning tool called HCM Online Academy for HR professionals who want to learn more about the HCM industry.

UKG Pro Payroll doesn’t handle payroll for companies with locations in other countries aside from the U.S. and Canada. Companies looking for that functionality will need to integrate the software with a third-party tax provider, or one of UKG Pro’s preferred global payroll providers.
Also, some users have reported that customer support response times tend to be slow.
