More Cegid Cons →

"Integration between Employee Central and Compensation in SAP SuccessFactors is one area of the solution that has room for improvement.""User experience for this solution needs to be improved.""There's room for improvement in SAP SuccessFactors, particularly in terms of innovation. I'd like more flexibility in its functionality and more customization. In terms of what additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of the product, it depends on the module because you have various modules in SAP SuccessFactors, so it's easier to go module by module and understand what features you have in each module. The product has a lot of features coming up, but the product being more mobile, or having mobile features would be nice.""Forms cannot be edited once submitted.""SuccessFactors should consider building their best practices around critical industries to help companies become more differentiated in the markets they operate in.""Language settings in the solution need to be improved.""The GUI needs to be enhanced to be in line with the latest and complete version of the solution.""SAP resources are at the high end and anything you want to change or any customization is expensive."
