Integrates with various tools with flexible pricing model and easy setup
We conduct quarterly reviews throughout the year, using the system to manage the entire performance cycle. Employees and managers provide feedback, and one-on-one meetings can be scheduled directly through the platform. The system handles all records and notifications, syncing with Google Calendar and providing meeting preparation tools. Employees only need to complete their reviews, while the system takes care of the rest. After the reviews, we receive insights from all departments and regions, helping us analyze performance trends. HiBob can be configured to support hybrid and remote work, but its effectiveness will depend on how well it aligns with your company's needs and setup. While the system allows for customization, including features like tracking birthdays and anniversaries, its usefulness for remote work will vary. Compliance issues, such as GDPR, will also play a role in deciding which features to use. Ultimately, the value of these tools will depend on your company's specific requirements and location. HiBob requires one person for maintenance, though additional admins can be assigned as needed. The system offers various modules, such as the talent model, compensation hub, analytics hub, and hiring model, which may be utilized depending on your company's needs. For a company of around 200 employees, one person is typically sufficient for maintenance, but a second person might be needed if the company grows to around 250 employees. Overall, I rate the solution an eight-point five out of ten.

Saves time through transclusion - using a single record across multiple modules
The most valuable feature is the module integration, which saves time through transclusion - using a single record across multiple modules. The user interface has improved significantly. The current client redesigns work centers per subsidiary business unit, making navigation more intuitive and easier for end users. Reporting and analytics capabilities have greatly improved.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"HiBob integrates with various tools, such as Slack, Jira, and Google Calendar."
"PeopleSoft allows you to schedule upgrades and inform users beforehand. This gives your IT team time to manage the implementation and minimize disruption."
"The customization and catering to our specific needs have helped."
"PeopleSoft is mostly used for payroll and core HR functionality. Some customers use it for its finance module."
"Stability-wise, it is a good tool."
"The solution is easy to scale, expand and make bigger."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is having the sources so that you're able to adapt the product to your needs. That was a big benefit."
"Scales up very well."
"The integration between Human Capital Management (HCM) and PeopleSoft is an important feature."
 

Cons

"HiBob isn't as user-friendly for managing contractors, part-time employees, or consultants."
"Tools and UI could be enhanced."
"The support is medium quality through the Oracle support portal. It's neither exceptionally good nor particularly bad."
"The solution's initial setup is not straightforward."
"The biggest disadvantage with things like PeopleSoft is that they do continuous support and fixes and upgrades. You get to choose when you want to implement that upgrade. However, in order to keep up, you have to upgrade."
"The solution could improve by offering PeopleSoft site licenses. Currently, Oracle is pushing for everyone to transition to the cloud, but clients are discontent with this approach. Offering new PeopleSoft site licenses would be the most beneficial for our clients."
"It would be helpful for the end-user if the reports were customized. They would be able to select the fields while generating their reports."
"The ease of integration needs improvement."
"I would like to see a better UI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"We are a University and the cost and license are negotiated privately."
"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being expensive."
