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

"Recently, support has been excellent."
"It helps to optimize some workflows and provides reporting capabilities."
"Meta4 HCM helps us consolidate HR data across various regions."
"The solution is very helpful as it allows us to optimize and consolidate all the data for talent management."
"This solution would be good and more cost-effective than an SAP if you are only looking for HR functionality."
"Stability of this solution is very good, it's a good product."
"The solution has a great payroll engine."
"The performance appraisal is the most valuable feature."
"It has good navigation, and it is user friendly and secure. Every three months, there is an upgrade, and it has new features."
"Compared to earlier, older versions, HCM Cloud has built-in business intelligence and reporting capabilities, and not just transactional, providing actual analytic capabilities that are pretty good, and on the accounts tables side it has built-in document image capturing tools so there is no need to rely on third-party products anymore."
"All the features are good."
"This is a very comprehensive solution, covering every aspect of the HCM profit cycle and the life cycle."
"The best feature of the product is the middleware where it allows you to create a project and all the required and the optional tasks come pre-configured."
"HCM Cloud's most valuable feature is its ease of use - it's interlinked, so you can drill down into information."
"We haven't had a single issue with stability, and we've been using it for more than three years."
"I work in Saudi Arabia, the localization is most valuable as this solution has localized the payroll and they are providing the same service to HR with the core HRMS system without budgets procuring separately."
 

Cons

"The first response usually lacks depth, and if it were just an HR user submitting tickets, the outcome might be poor."
"The user interface could be improved and the maintenance is complex when it comes to upgrades."
"I rate the support from Meta4 a two out of five."
"To put it bluntly, the e-Mind product is obsolete older technology, and has no upgrade path for the new PeopleNet product."
"I think the areas of training and performance could be improved in the solution."
"The HR portal, training model, and development career model could all use improvement. Stability and scalability should be improved as well."
"The HR portal, training model, and the development career model all need improvement."
"The Solution is stable, yet when the data became huge, the Payroll Users are facing slow execution of the Payroll."
"Oracle HCM Cloud could improve by adding AI and more offline capabilities."
"The user interface, as well as the interfaces between modules, should definitely be enhanced."
"It's not so easy to customize as it's cloud-based."
"The recruitment aspect is good, but it's new and it still needs some enhancements. In the future, we hope it will be similar to Taleo."
"Occasionally there are problems with stability."
"Integration. We still have Oracle E-Business Suite in other business areas, so integration of HCM Cloud into it would be an improvement."
"The interface could be more user friendly."
"I believe what could be improved is the EX portion of Oracle HCM Cloud and how it can more easily integrate with other tools."
 

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 data traffic cost is expensive. The solution can scale up beyond my imagination, but the cost can rise up easily."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"I haven't personally dealt with the cost details, but based on client feedback, Oracle HCM Cloud is considered expensive due to additional support costs on top of licensing fees."
"The solution is quite expensive for small and medium-sized companies."
"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 cost of Oracle HCM Cloud is high, it could be reduced. There is an annual subscription and it is user-based."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"The pricing is reasonable."
