Featured Reviews

Prashant Shetty - PeerSpot reviewer
Associate Director at Raytheon Technologies
A tool to help manage global payroll that needs to improve the area of customization after its implementation
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a six out of ten. With ADP GlobalView Payroll, if I have to scale up the operations, one of the practical challenges I would like to highlight here is that in the post-implementation phase, if there are any new system enhancements or customization requests, it takes a lot of time to work with ADP to implement such changes. In the present time, every business has to operate in an agile manner, but I think that when it comes to the area revolving around change and control, there is a cost involved in ADP, and it comes as part of ADP's global contract. Most of the time, users may find that the prices quoted are not reasonable to justify the efforts involved from ADP's end. Most of the companies that fall under the category of Fortune 100 use ADP GlobalView Payroll, especially in the APAC region and Europe. The good thing with ADP GlobalView Payroll is that its system can be integrated with any HR system, like Workday or SAP SuccessFactors, since the integration is very seamless because many companies use global HR systems.

Has connected financial data across departments and improved future cash flow planning
I would like to improve the integration with other solutions, as I need everything integrated, like the HR module, purchase module, SCM, production, and engineering. Each and every module should be connected to the finance module, and I think Oracle provides the right solution. Also, SAP, IFS, or Microsoft Dynamics 365 offer some solutions, but I am not as happy with them as I am with Oracle. I believe that Oracle E-Business Suite could improve by transitioning from Java-based scripts in our system to a web-based environment. While Oracle already has JD Edwards available in web-based format, I think it needs to be smoother for optimization and presentation in the future. In comparison, IFS is fully web-based, and all applications are sufficiently good and user-friendly. We are developing and trying to improve to a web-based setup, but it is currently too costly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"ADP is a good solution if you want simple, static systems."
"If someone wants a good payroll system with a good presence in the APAC region and Europe, then without a doubt, ADP GlobalView Payroll falls at the top of the list of best tools."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Good solution if you want simple, static systems."
"Oracle E-Business Suite has over 20 different modules to choose from, it is comprehensive. Additionally, the integration is very good."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is flexible, and its rich functionality can work in any client environment or business."
"Regarding the valuable features, the automation is inherent in all systems, including Oracle E-Business Suite. It helps in various business processes, depending on the company's behavior and requests."
"The most valuable features of Oracle EBS are its ease of use, integration capabilities, and the General Ledger reporting, including the FSG reporting."
"With the Finance module, we can manage our finance organization from a single system for accounting purposes."
"I like Oracle ERP for streamlining the entire process from PRTL and invoice payments. It also has the decision and internet sale order, and my customers can correct the internet decision. It automatically converts to the internet order, and they don't need to create the entry object. They don't need to make a secondary ledger in the parent company and subsidiary. That's very helpful for internet decisions. If they get an order at the parent company, it automatically creates the sales system in the subsidiary."
"Valuable features include expense management and the accounting suite of products."
"Order to cash and procure to pay process: They are valuable features because of their integration and flexibility."
 

Cons

"With big companies, it takes a long time to run when it comes to the reporting part."
"The portal where employees log in to check their weekly tax statements is called ADP ESS, an area where improvements are needed."
"Projects tend to take longer because ADP wants to manage everything."
"Projects tend to take longer because ADP wants to manage everything."
"Although I don't have daily, hands-on work with E-Business Suite, I know that my colleagues are concerned with its reporting and dashboarding abilities. They'd like better reporting on data and dashboard functionalities."
"We wanted a fully-fledged solution that has got payroll, HR, finance et cetera, basically everything finance and administration we'd like to see sustainability management. This solution doesn't offer exactly what we need all in one package."
"A downside of Oracle E-Business Suite is its interface because it's less user-friendly than the latest cloud solutions. As an organization, Oracle now has more interest in cloud applications, so nowadays, it doesn't focus much on Oracle E-Business Suite, an on-premises solution, so this is another downside."
"The iStore could be better."
"The system has bugs, is not user friendly, and requires too much customization."
"Areas for improvement would be that sometimes it's a bit rigid with customization and doesn't always facilitate region-specific requirements."
"Needs more real-time visualizations, in terms of smarter dashboards and reporting competing with the speed of HANA."
"Technical support is mediocre. It used to be a lot better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe that ADP GlobalView Payroll is an expensive solution."
"If users consider the license of the solution, then it is an expensive tool."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is cheaper than SAP. It is expensive."
"I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten, with ten being very expensive."
"Products concerning areas like CRM and ERP should provide value at lesser costs to customers, especially if you consider that the initial cost of implementation is high."
"Licensing is on a yearly basis. There is an initial cost, and the standard fee is 22% per year."
"This product is more expensive if you compare it to SAP."
"The pricing is high."
"Considering the market at the moment, Oracle needs to adjust the pricing of this solution."
"Oracle generally gives a lot of discounts."
