James Balbach - PeerSpot reviewer
Centralizes our enterprise-wide functions but could benefit from cloud migration
We have dealt with customer service, and it was awful. For a system this size, it felt like we were merely buying software from them. They weren't really partnered with us on it. Reporting bugs and getting feedback, as well as having engineers work on issues, was very transactional. There was no real ownership on Oracle's part. During several support cases, it became difficult to determine ownership at Oracle and get status updates. The on-premises Oracle support is not great in my experience, and I think this is true in the industry. We've read about their software as a solution, and theoretically, their SaaS portal support is a lot better.
Sudarsan Santhosh Kumar S. - PeerSpot reviewer
It's so easy to use that a customer can easily understand the process with zero knowledge of the system
Ramco is user-friendly. The UA is excellent and so easy to use that a customer can easily understand the process with zero knowledge of the system. We can easily walk a new user through the user guide. For each ESS MSS, I can log in to the ESS access. And documentation is available. Ramco doesn't charge much when customers request custom KPI calculations and other custom features. Workday and SAP impose a high charge. Ramco's bots are excellent, whereas Workday doesn't have an automated system and is only now developing a mobile app.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"On-Time Payroll and its features are user-friendly."
"Oracle EBS adapts to our business rules, so we don't have to change them, whereas SAP is rigid. We need to change our business rules to implement SAP. Oracle's reporting is also excellent and it's easier for our technical team to customize the solution compared to SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, and other products."
"It provides us with a centralized location to have an enterprise-wide GL and other module solutions."
"Oracle E-Business Suite's most valuable feature is the information that it provides. For example, it's good to know the AR due date and the receipt of the products that you have sold. It is a good solution overall for enterprise management."
"The system is reliable and the backbone of financial and other core systems in many organizations worldwide."
"It is scalable."
"Rapidly implement jobs, positions, grades, and steps within setup of organizational structure."
"Oracle EBS provides the customer with faster financial closing because of its accurate calculations."
"Ramco is user-friendly. The UA is excellent and so easy to use that a customer can easily understand the process with zero knowledge of the system. We can easily walk a new user through the user guide. For each ESS MSS, I can log in to the ESS access. and documentation is available."
"Ramco HCM is a stable system that doesn't have downtime or fluctuation issues. It can also take large volumes and scale up very fast."
"Once we implemented this solution, it was customizable for our needs and this has been the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"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."
"The performance management system is really good."
"In general, the solution is very flexible and can be configured in multiple ways."
"Ramco HCM stands out due to its reliability and up-to-date compliance with legal, statutory, and regulatory requirements."
"Payroll processing is very easy. SQL rules can be attached to any pay elements."
 

Cons

"If you get away from the financials core of the product, it is not so good at handling peripherals."
"One issue with the product is because it build on a lot of older technologies, there is a substantial technical debt in the system."
"The issue of frequently applying patches and updates to fix bugs. Oracle should improve upon this issue, especially since it happens too frequently."
"Earlier when our organization was small they chose Oracle because in the telecommunication industry everybody was using Oracle. Our company has grown to a size where our particularly billing phase has created some challenges and now we are looking at alternate solutions. There is not a billing engine or module that you can buy from Oracle that can be added to this EBS solution to fix our problem. They should add a billing module or engine to the solution."
"It is still a little outdated as far as what we consider a twenty-first century software. You're still using Oracle forms, that sort of thing."
"Oracle E-Business Suite's stability could be improved as they have a lot of bugs that need to be fixed."
"We are moving to the cloud and are looking at the cloud version of it for the cost of ownership and a more modernized integrated platform."
"The integration features of the tool on on-premises weren't that great, making it an area where improvements are required."
"The talent management and performance appraisal modules could use some improvement."
"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."
"One area for improvement in Ramco HCM is its UI, which could be more intuitive. Another area for improvement in the system is that it can be challenging to make some modular-based changes to it."
"The mobile app for this solution could be improved as it lacks many features."
"The entire UI/UX of the solution can be improved drastically."
"Ramco could be a bit faster and offer more use cases. A prime aim is to get analytics and this is lacking in Ramco. This lack of reporting is one of the reasons we are moving away from using Ramco."
"The product itself sometimes feels inconsistent because it comes with bugs."
"The mobile app and web page user experience could be more user friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is quite expensive."
"I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten, with ten being very expensive."
"E-Business Suite's pricing could be lower."
"I have found the solution overall to be expensive. There are additional fees on top of the standard license."
"Oracle's licenses are not straightforward."
"The pricing is high."
"Find a best Oracle partner and get a better discount."
"Oracle has different licensing models available. For example, concurrent user license metric and power unit licensing metric. It is different from product to product, but for the application itself, the license is by the number of users."
"I am not aware of the price because I was working in the implementation team, but pricing is generally based on the requirement, modules, headcount, and country."
"This solution is priced in the middle compared to other solutions on the market."
"Their customized solution is pretty expensive but much cheaper than its competitors."
