Carlos  Cardona - PeerSpot reviewer
Operations Manager at Visual K
Powerful accounting functionality, easy to implement, and same day support response
There is a tool in Infor VISUAL that is called Costing Utilities, they should make the functionality more flexible. In a future release, if they could add a CRM incorporated into the core of the solution that would be awesome. Additionally, a more flexible project model. They have a project model, but it's very challenging to set up values.

Newcomers benefit from automation and user-friendly integration
PeopleSoft is affordable for existing customers only, not for new customers. The popularity is declining for several reasons. Resources are moving to cloud solutions such as Workday cloud. Even though it is the same Oracle environment, professionals are transitioning due to challenges in availability, scalability, and resource allocation. When there are limited hiring opportunities for a particular technology, professionals must consider switching technologies either internally within their organization or personally. If a project ends and someone is placed on bench without new opportunities, they often need to switch to technologies with more market demand. Currently, resources are frequently moving to other ERP systems such as Workday, SAP, Mulesoft, and Salesforce, as there are numerous ERP systems in the marketplace.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of Infor VISUAL are its powerful accounting, multicurrency functionality, and production aspects. We implement the manufacturing for many customers. These are the main goals of the solution."
"A valuable feature is HCM."
"In general, this solution is user friendly and also performs well. There are two types of forms. One is a standardized form, which you can define things into. The other, you can customize so more repetition can be done in an even manner. That way, it can be designed for what the public or user actually wants. It's not very tough for any person, or layman to understand exactly what the screen requires one to do."
"The most valuable feature is the module integration, which saves time through transclusion - using a single record across multiple modules."
"Job data is a valuable feature."
"We use a lot of typical cases from PeopleSoft, for example, solutions for security, business performance, monitoring processes, and a lot of training."
"It is a very stable ERP solution. It is also supported on Oracle Cloud and provides extensive features."
"Flexibility in configuration."
"The customization and catering to our specific needs have helped."
 

Cons

"There is a tool in Infor VISUAL that is called Costing Utilities, they should make the functionality more flexible."
"The area that could be improved is the upgrade process, it's not the easiest. Oracle stopped supporting our version. So we have to move either to the cloud or work in a non-supported situation. That was certainly a disadvantage. That's also the reason why we decided not to stay with Oracle. Now we are moving to SAP."
"In my opinion, it needs more performance, maybe something technical related, because it's very slow for us and even small activities take a while."
"It would be nice if it became even more declarative in its development."
"The Time and Labor module is not that flexible."
"PeopleSoft could improve by being more user-friendly. It's somewhat awkward to navigate."
"I would like to see better support, bug fixing, and documentation."
"Services that need improvement include PeopleSoft Query, Pivot Grids, and PeopleSoft Test Framework."
"The support is medium quality through the Oracle support portal. It's neither exceptionally good nor particularly bad."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Check all options before a decision is made."
"The expenses related to the solution are nominal."
"There are no additional costs for licensing."
"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"The solution is priced per module."
"I don't know if they are still providing licenses or if they have suspending licenses."
"It's approximately $3,000,000 to $4,000,000 USD per year."
"I would consider this to be an expensive product, but the quality justifies it."
