Featured Reviews

Petra Valjak - PeerSpot reviewer
Head of People&Culture at a outsourcing company with 51-200 employees
Unified HR platform has streamlined global hiring, reduced onboarding work, and improved reviews
There are some minor things that I am looking forward to seeing improved in Deel, such as employment types. For example, I hire a lot of interns and there isn't a specific employment type for intern. There are employment types for direct employee, contractor and similar, but nothing for interns. There is a way to work around it by saying an intern is actually a direct employee and then implementing a custom field, but it would be really good if there was a general field to recognize interns as a part of the workforce. That is something that comes to mind. I think there are still some things that Deel will improve over time and then I will be happy to give it a 10 out of 10. Given the fact that it is still a fairly new HRIS system, there are minor improvements that can be made from that perspective of purely admin work, for example, correcting data in the fields once you import them when changing a salary. If I input one salary incorrectly, I need to import another line. I cannot just correct the previous field, which some of the other HRIS systems allow. This way, on one hand I have full tracking of all the logs so I am not missing if someone corrected something or did any changes, but on the other hand, it also remains visible in the logs. Even if it is a small human error, there is no way to make it very well structured and polished when I am drawing, for example, a historical report of all the salary changes. Such things are minor improvements that I believe would come over time. Once those are implemented, it would be a 10 out of 10.

Reliable and loaded with features, but the UI is outdated
The entire UI/UX of the solution can be improved drastically. When I give a new employee, aged 19 and recently graduated, the solution, they are not enthused to use it on a daily basis. Ramco HCM looks outdated and is not as intuitive as it should be. I want to create an easier experience for new generations who come to work with me, with fewer scrolls, clicks, and pages to navigate. The optimization should be available with the minimum number of clicks. This is why I believe UI/UX is the most important element. I would love to see an intuitive web interface for the app, which would enable each user to easily manage and govern their data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Everybody loves Deel. It is easier for us to track timesheets of our contractors, and I have been receiving a lot of positive feedback from the contractors that Deel is pretty easy to navigate and very user-friendly for them."
"Now that we have everything automatically in Deel, we save a lot of time, and we can have someone ready to work with us in about a day."
"Deel has positively impacted our organization by reducing the time necessary for payroll processing from the moment of payroll inputs to payroll outputs, reducing human errors, and greatly helping us hire professionals in regions where we couldn't do so before."
"My advice for others looking into using Deel is to consider it if you need to streamline payroll; it's really straightforward."
"Deel has created a great impact and saved us a lot of time and hard work behind the scenes."
"With Deel, I am able to hire people across the world, which has positively impacted my organization."
"Deel has positively impacted our organization by allowing us to access talent that we otherwise would not be able to hire because we don't have entities in all those countries."
"Deel has positively impacted my organization by helping us streamline and automate processes, reducing our workload."
"It is a good product, and it is suitable for different client requirements. It has customization options and flexibility. You can customize a report or configure the workflow based on your requirements. Everything is there in the product, and you can customize it as per your requirement. Our clients found the automation of the payroll, leave attendance, and onboarding modules the most valuable. The Time and Attendance module is fully integrated with this solution and supports multiple data entry modes, such as barcode, biometric device, fingerprints, and face reading. Its core HR module includes features like movement, expense management, exit, and separation. The compensation and benefits module includes features like welfare, retirement, and superannuation. It also has analytical tools. You can create a real-time report based on your requirements. You can also publish that report in different formats, such as Excel, PDF, HTML, etc. It has a chatbot feature, which is using machine learning and natural language. You can ask questions about your leave balance, attendance, or things like that, and you will get an immediate reply from the chatbot. It also supports approval through email."
"Ramco HCM stands out due to its reliability and up-to-date compliance with legal, statutory, and regulatory requirements."
"It is a complete HCM suite from hire to retire that streamlines business requirements."
"Ramco HCM's performance management system is really good and supports assessments, appraisals, and more."
"Once we implemented this solution, it was customizable for our needs and this has been the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The performance management system is really good."
"If the implementation is without modification for any of the modules, it’s really simple using their QiK tool; the implementation takes around 2-3 months to go live."
"In general, the solution is very flexible and can be configured in multiple ways."
 

Cons

"Deel can be improved, especially since their reporting is not the greatest."
"Deel is a very big system and sometimes it becomes a bit too big."
"My advice for others looking into using Deel is to skip."
"There are some minor things that I am looking forward to seeing improved in Deel, such as employment types."
"All of those bugs that come with updates lower the overall experience, and the pricing might be quite expensive for some companies in Europe."
"Deel can be improved in such a way that I am able to connect to customer service faster because usually it just directs me to an AI, which sometimes isn't really that helpful."
"For reporting, I would say that is the only thing I think Deel can be improved at."
"One of the things that I would suggest for Deel to improve is its user interface and navigation because there are times that it can be overwhelming, especially to new users."
"I would like to see the flexibility to create reports suitable to the company because the standard reports from Ramco are so conservative."
"They can improve the configuration time because it takes more time than other products to configure the system."
"The mobile app for this solution could be improved as it lacks many features."
"It can improve on the Comp Off and On Duty leave management process and can include real time Google Maps instead of geo-tagging to track the real location of employees."
"They can improve the configuration time because it takes more time than other products to configure the system. It could be because they are managing this single product for all countries, but it would be good if they improve the implementation time because we need to implement the solutions within a timeline. They should provide some kind of auto-configuration so that the system can be configured and implemented within a certain timeline. Implementors should have a provision to configure the system in a short time. There should also be an option to move the setup or configuration from staging to production to save time. These types of automation should be there."
"There were so many bugs in the older releases."
"The entire UI/UX of the solution can be improved drastically."
"The one area where I would like to see some improvement would be the mobile app and web page user experience which could be more user friendly."
