Optimize talent management with modular features but needs better reporting
There are difficulties regarding the reporting part. While we have some reporting functionalities, they are not powerful or deep. For instance, the coverage report on a specific effective date provides data effective on the day of the report, which is a significant limitation. Additionally, the available APIs, both inbound and outbound, are not well-developed, preventing the creation of accurate interfaces with other systems. There is also a need to review the reporting infrastructure to build a data lake that would allow customers to access data regardless of the effective date of the information. Moreover, the silos between the different modules need to be removed. Ideally, one would want a report that provides information at the same time from performance and compensation.

Provides unified access to multiple HR functions and reduces navigation effort
I am generally satisfied with the talent management capabilities in Oracle HCM Cloud, but as I mentioned, there are certain pages that really lag sometimes and there are a lot of bugs in talent management. Before, when it had a responsive UI, it was fine, but after it switched to Redwood, I feel there are bugs, and the functionality stated in the documents is not accurate. It takes some time to get that feature, and we need to raise product SR or ask in the community how it works. It's not easily understandable, especially in the talent management area. One potential area of improvement for Oracle HCM Cloud is that it lags. It takes time to reflect the pages, and the loading time now requires us to wait for the page to load. Earlier, we used to click and see the page immediately. However, now we need to wait for it to get loaded, which can be frustrating when working in a fast mode.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool provides a lot of options."
"The performance appraisal is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the payment engine."
"The solution has a great payroll engine."
"Meta4 HCM helps us consolidate HR data across various regions."
"Performance appraisal might be the most valuable feature for us."
"The most valuable features of Meta4 are payroll and resource recruitment. However, all of the features in the human resource system are useful."
"This solution would be good and more cost-effective than an SAP if you are only looking for HR functionality."
"I would recommend Oracle HCM Cloud to others."
"The technical support is very good."
"The initial setup or implementation process of the solution is fine. The deployment process took place in two days. So, once one has the runbook and everything in place, it is not that difficult."
"Oracle HCM Cloud offers subscription based services to system that includes web based interface, and mobile and ipad application."
"The solution's scalability potential is very good, and we have more than 1,000 users ourselves."
"What I like most about Oracle HCM Cloud is that I didn't see any area that needs to be dramatically improved. I also appreciate that it has good integration with other Oracle products. The process of integrating Oracle HCM Cloud is rather explanatory. I also found the Oracle library to be helpful. As Oracle HCM Cloud is quite a robust solution, I like it versus other solutions. I like the people at Oracle."
"I like that it is mobile responsive and you can work directly with the vendor on specific requirements that you might have."
"This solution is valuable because it's robust and very dependable."
 

Cons

"The Solution is stable, yet when the data became huge, the Payroll Users are facing slow execution of the Payroll."
"In future releases, it would be useful to see reporting lines of all the team members in our business to understand who reports to whom."
"The HR portal, training model, and development career model could all use improvement. Stability and scalability should be improved as well."
"There are difficulties regarding the reporting part."
"Reporting (although it doesn't always work as intended)."
"Their technical support is not so good."
"The solution is a little bit slow."
"There is room for improvements, such as including AI solutions for people management to improve job descriptions, recruitment reels, skills mapping, etc."
"The solution has much room for improvement in all the modules and we are not wholly satisfied with it."
"The implementation was complex. We needed a third-party Oracle partner to help us to set up the solution."
"The initial setup is straightforward. However, it is more complex than Oracle Taleo because it has a lot more features have complexity."
"Lacks relevancy for the current generation."
"The data uploading part and backup could be better. They are a bit complex. Oracle is continuously changing it from one functionality to another. It's a bit unstable right now, and it's basically on the backend data upload part. If I have to upload, for example, data for 100 employees, it's a bit of a challenge for an end-user. It can be difficult if you're not a technical person and an end-user like me. I administer the platform, and if I get a request to upload and I'm not a technical person, then I'm just lost. I have to do some research and then complete the task. But it's evolving, and I hope it's more user-friendly in the future. In the next release, I would like a more stable mobile application. The current version isn't very stable. It takes time to open, and although they have come up with new UI pages, a few open areas need to be addressed. I would also like to see more robust and user-friendly data uploading techniques that would be helpful for end users like us. We don't have a technical background, and we just want to upload the data for our day-to-day operations."
"The tool's configurable side allows you to have more flexibility, but at the same time, it creates a lot of confusion that still has to do over so much of the configuration, which are areas that are conflicting in nature."
"Oracle HCM Cloud could improve by adding AI and more offline capabilities."
"Learning Management on cloud is relatively new and has scope for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Meta4 requires annual maintenance that needs to be paid for."
"From a cost perspective, I think this is a well-balanced option."
"The product could be more affordable."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"According to the Turkish market, the pricing is a little bit expensive."
"I cannot comment on the cost, as this is handled by a different team."
"I am not normally involved in the product's pricing since it normally involves the packages that a user chooses. Pricing differs based on a case-to-case scenario and client-to-client basis."
"The solution is quite expensive for small and medium-sized companies."
"On average, it's not a cheap solution."
"It is definitely super expensive. Oracle is very, very expensive for what they offer."
