During the December release, we introduced a new, refreshed experience for our UKG Ready in-app marketplace called Solutions Exchange. Designed to enhance and enrich your UKG Ready experience, the Solutions Exchange offers tailored solutions and third-party integrations that add significant value to your organization.
Driven by customer feedback, our dedicated product and UI teams at UKG strived to create an experience that was user friendly, responsive, and accessible to all that have access to it. Some of the updates users can look forward to are enhanced filtering, an improved layout, clear distinctions between paid and free integrations, new tabs such as Featured, All Products, and Your Products. And there’s so much more to explore!
Whether you’re looking to access your data in other platforms or connect with various services and providers, the Solutions Exchange offers a wide array of pre-built integrations and services from trusted partners. These integrations and services can help you streamline processes, improve productivity, and enhance employee engagement. Overall, the product and services offerings in the Solutions Exchange will ensure greater accuracy and efficiency with your use of UKG Ready.
A big point of feedback we heard was people were confusing the classic in-app marketplace and the UKG Marketplace place. To address this, we decided to rename the UKG Ready in-app offering from UKG Marketplace to Solutions Exchange. This change aims to eliminate confusion and better align the two experiences.
So, what sets the Solutions Exchange apart from the UKG Marketplace? It’s a great question! While you may find some integrations available on both platforms, the key difference lies in their integration with your solution. The UKG Marketplace is separate from your solution, whereas the Solutions Exchange lives directly within UKG Ready.
The UKG Marketplace includes any third-party vendors and partners that can integrate with any of our products (UKG Pro, UKG Pro Workforce Management, and UKG Ready). It’s a digital catalog of vetted partners that can extend the value of all UKG products through application programming interface (API) integrations and contracted implementation and consulting services.
The Solutions Exchange includes third-party vendors and partners that integrate directly with UKG Ready. These integrations can be activated and configured directly from the Solutions Exchange within your UKG Ready solution.
The classic UKG Ready Marketplace experience is still available for users to access until the February release. However, we encourage you to check out the new Solutions Exchange experience and let us know what you think! You can find the Solutions Exchange in your system by navigating to My Info > My Company > Solutions Exchange.
