Human Resources Intern at a government with 10,001+ employees
Provides unified access to multiple HR functions and reduces navigation effort
I am generally satisfied with the talent management capabilities in Oracle HCM Cloud, but as I mentioned, there are certain pages that really lag sometimes and there are a lot of bugs in talent management. Before, when it had a responsive UI, it was fine, but after it switched to Redwood, I feel there are bugs, and the functionality stated in the documents is not accurate. It takes some time to get that feature, and we need to raise product SR or ask in the community how it works. It's not easily understandable, especially in the talent management area. One potential area of improvement for Oracle HCM Cloud is that it lags. It takes time to reflect the pages, and the loading time now requires us to wait for the page to load. Earlier, we used to click and see the page immediately. However, now we need to wait for it to get loaded, which can be frustrating when working in a fast mode.

The self-service helps increase employee loyalty
The reporting could use some improvement. It doesn't shorten the data that it displays to the employee. At the moment you have to scroll through all of the results in order to find what you are looking for. Another improvement that should be implemented in the next release is the appraisal. For the appraisal model, we have to go to another solution because the one included is not supporting us in our needs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In general, functionality is fine."
"The solution has good integration with other applications."
"Oracle HCM Cloud has helped the organization by harmonizing the processes."
"Oracle HCM has a great reporting platform, OTPI, with drag-and-drop functionality. I can design my own reports without relying on the technical team. This empowers HR users to create reports based on their needs, which is a huge advantage."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle HCM Cloud is the dashboards, customization, and configuration."
"All the features are good."
"This is a very comprehensive solution, covering every aspect of the HCM profit cycle and the life cycle."
"The best feature of the product is the middleware where it allows you to create a project and all the required and the optional tasks come pre-configured."
"This solution increases the employees' loyalty to the organization since everything regarding their salary, health, insurance, etc. is there, and the employees can also check to see what activity is done on their files."
 

Cons

"The user interface is not conducive to high volume data entry."
"The tool's configurable side allows you to have more flexibility, but at the same time, it creates a lot of confusion that still has to do over so much of the configuration, which are areas that are conflicting in nature."
"The absence management can use some improvement. Due to all the flexible working, the part with work schedules could be a little bit more flexible."
"HCM's analytics features could be improved."
"The interfaces could be improved because when you're going into the landing page, the interfaces look a bit blunt when they could be more user-friendly."
"From the feedback that I get, the functional side of the payroll could be improved."
"The data uploading part and backup could be better. They are a bit complex."
"The solution has much room for improvement in all the modules and we are not wholly satisfied with it."
"The reporting could use some improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a subscription to use this solution, and there can be additional fees."
"On average, it's not a cheap solution."
"Oracle HCM offers many features at a low price."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"It has a licensing cost. It has a cloud-based subscription, which is quite cheap."
"There is a license required for the use of this solution and we are on an annual license."
"According to the Turkish market, the pricing is a little bit expensive."
"I haven't personally dealt with the cost details, but based on client feedback, Oracle HCM Cloud is considered expensive due to additional support costs on top of licensing fees."
