I have just completed three assessments: one on inventory demand planning, another on using artificial intelligence to bring supplier contracts in portable document format directly into PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft works both internally as well as with third-party products that integrate seamlessly with PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft operates both from a need-to-know-only basis as well as being able at the same time to do group purchase and realize large quantity purchase discounts. My clients have used marketplaces, and it is really industry-specific whether they use one or not, or if there is even one available. I would rate this product nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Microsoft Viva Insights is integrated with Outlook and SharePoint. It helps me to reply and attend all scheduled meetings."
"A solid and mature product."
"A valuable feature is HCM."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I like its wide variety and its use in many applications; receivables, payables, general ledger."
"The most valuable feature of PeopleSoft Procurement is the completely end-to-end integration of the procurement process."
"Peoplesoft is the best payroll software in the market."
"The most valuable feature is the module integration, which saves time through transclusion - using a single record across multiple modules."
"Scales up very well."
 

Cons

"I get very few notifications of Microsoft Viva Insights on my mobile."
"PeopleSoft can improve by having proper connectors. It's very difficult to change some interfaces with the other systems."
"There should be more analytics, monitoring analytics, and also machine learning should be incorporated into the core product."
"If they could provide reports for various organizations, especially global ones. Currently, the report fields are mostly US centric, and do not support other regions."
"PeopleSoft lacks integration capabilities."
"One of the areas that could improve is the capability of utilizing mobile for some of the self-service activities that are missing. They are running on the older platform. What is happening is people are focusing on the cloud. PeopleSoft is a good provider and should into the cloud. That could be an advantage for them. Customers would not have to go find another solution that is a completely different platform that has different functionality altogether."
"From an administration perspective, I think Oracle needs more clarity on their road map as to where they are going to improve the product."
"My developers want to use more HTML instead of the specialized tool, PeopleTools because, they say, it's better from a user perspective."
"Processing speed and user-friendliness."
