Company Report

Workday's Switching Costs Support a Narrow Moat Amid AI's Potential Disruption

Workday is a relatively new entrant to the enterprise resource planning market. However, the company was able to take market share from competitors by demonstrating that adopting cloud-native enterprise systems provides a superior user experience and reduces the total cost of ownership. As Workday continues to expand its ecosystem with third-party partners, we believe it operates the best-of-breed cloud-only solution for human capital management.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Workday has already gathered a large customer base as enterprises move their corporate systems to the cloud, offering the company upsell opportunities as it rolls out new modules.

Bears

Workday’s FINS platform still misses some advanced functionality compared with other solutions, which may limit future financial management module attach rates.
