Decades of use have delivered secure, customizable control for public sector operations and finance
I have just completed three assessments: one on inventory demand planning, another on using artificial intelligence to bring supplier contracts in portable document format directly into PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft works both internally as well as with third-party products that integrate seamlessly with PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft operates both from a need-to-know-only basis as well as being able at the same time to do group purchase and realize large quantity purchase discounts. My clients have used marketplaces, and it is really industry-specific whether they use one or not, or if there is even one available. I would rate this product nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The three most crucial pieces are the financial modules, the banking module, and the management module."
"The tool's usability is straightforward."
"I have found the solution has many valuable features such as a user-friendly mobile platform, notification settings, and the ability to do many customizations."
"It is an affordable ERP system and rich in functionality, providing good control of processes."
"Flexibility in configuration."
"One of the best on-prem ERP systems on the market with robust features."
"What I like is that we can have multiple web services created and multiple consumers can use them together without any interruption or downtime."
"There were no issues with stability."
"The breadcrumb approach to navigation in PeopleSoft is good. nVision is also a good supplement."
"Stability-wise, it is a good tool."
"For example, any time you need to search information for any employee, you do not need to navigate through different screens and menus."
"PeopleSoft is easy to understand, where any end user that is logged in can easily navigate through the menus."
 

Cons

"The build-in dashboard and reporting customization should be improved."
"Improvements could be made regarding user-friendliness and transitioning fully to a web version. Features like forex reconciliation and a cash flow planning module could enhance the solution."
"The reporting Module should be improved and a drag and drop functionality should be added."
"The system has enough controls, but still there is scope for improvement."
"We've had to build all our data warehouses and datamarts in order for PeopleSoft to do the detailed reporting that we need."
"My advice to those thinking about implementing this solution is it is a dying technology."
"First-level support is poor, but second-level support has been fantastic."
"I would like for the initial rollout process to be completed faster so that it can be implemented in a more efficient manner."
"There are some small things I'd like changing, but the big thing that needs work is their technical support."
"The problem we have is the customization. We've gone a bit overboard with customization. That’s problematic during upgrades, which is a common problem with PeopleSoft."
"This is an area I would warn others about. I've worked on several implementations and there's a long period of time within which PeopleSoft needs to be implemented."
"Areas for improvement include implementing/upgrading tools and documentation. The Oracle support website can be difficult to navigate."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is fair compared to competitors."
"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten. Customizations can cost you extra money."
"The solution is moderately priced. The licensing cost is around sixty thousand USD for annual maintenance. If you're using an application-specific license, it is a little cheaper. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"The expenses related to the solution are nominal."
"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"It's approximately $3,000,000 to $4,000,000 USD per year."
"There are no additional costs for licensing."
"I don't know if they are still providing licenses or if they have suspending licenses."
"This solution offers annual licensing. We pay per user."
"PeopleSoft has a yearly maintenance fee."
"We are a University and the cost and license are negotiated privately."
