Is this a startup idea?

Not directly. These are complaints about a product or service people already use — the fix belongs first to that provider.

    UKG Pro — Isn’t fast and is laggy There is a long pause when you click on almost anything and is laggy at times. This app has been out for a while and using this now for my job isn’t looking the best. As a first impression of this app so far it is not looking as a good replacement.

    …tchy times out for no reason. Locks the moblé when logged in at work. Slow response and makes you have to take in necessary steps.
