Bottom line

UKG Dimensions is now sold as UKG Pro Workforce Management. It is enterprise WFM for shift forecasting, advanced scheduling, and time. Pricing is quoted per employee per month by module.

Stands out for: AI-powered scheduling that uses demand history, skills, certifications, preferences, and labor budgets, plus time, accruals, leave, and analytics as separately licensed modules.

Watch out for: This is not an SMB shift app. Timekeeping, scheduling, forecasting, and analytics are PEPM modules with implementation typically in the tens to hundreds of thousands. UKG Ready is the smaller-company SKU.

Overview

UKG Pro Workforce Management (formerly UKG Dimensions) is enterprise workforce management: timekeeping, advanced and optimized scheduling, forecasting, accruals, leave, absence, and analytics. AI scheduling balances demand, skills, and cost. Mobile time and manager tools sit on the same suite.

Licensing is SaaS PEPM by module. Public-sector price lists show separate PEPM lines for hourly timekeeping, scheduling, advanced scheduling, optimized scheduling, accruals, leave, and analytics. Implementation is a formal project. Pricing is quoted. The Dimensions name was replaced in October 2023.

Who it's for

Best for

  • Large hourly employers that need AI scheduling, forecasting, and FLSA/ACA-style time rules
  • Health systems, manufacturers, and retailers already in the UKG stack
  • Operations teams replacing Kronos Workforce Central-class timekeeping
  • Enterprises that will pair WFM with UKG Pro HCM rather than a point scheduler

Not ideal for

  • Cafes and single-site shops that need a free 30-user scheduler (see Sling)
  • Mid-market teams that wanted UKG Ready, not Dimensions-class PEPM modules

Key features

Labor forecasting. Projects demand and required headcount by site.

Shift scheduling. Builds enterprise rosters from that forecast.

Enterprise timekeeping. Clocks and exceptions sit on the same system.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Enterprise time, AI scheduling, forecasting, and compliance in one UKG suite
  • Module PEPM model so you license timekeeping without buying every add-on
  • Fits complex hourly rules that break SMB schedulers

Cons

  • Quoted PEPM plus a heavy implementation
  • Rename to UKG Pro Workforce Management can confuse Dimensions-era RFPs
  • Wrong size for a 30-person shop that needs Sling or Homebase
