Capable of consolidating data from all countries and providing access to any employee information across locations but poor user experience
Oracle HCM Cloud definitely has a lot to improve from a user experience perspective. The platform is huge and feature-rich, but is it truly appealing to an end user? Is it a two-click solution? Does it match current market trends in user experience? No, it has a lot of catching up to do. For example, is the screen catchy for an employee to see their details or access essential information? No. The user experience is zero. An employee needs training to apply for leave, something as simple as that. They shouldn't need training materials or user guides to navigate the system. We're moving towards empowering users, especially with end-user-facing systems. People should be self-reliant and not need to rely on manuals. Oracle HCM Cloud is very old-school in this regard. It's still stuck in the "PeopleSoft" mentality instead of focusing on a user-friendly experience for employees and managers. So, the user experience needs a major overhaul. So, to summarize, it needs to be more user-friendly and present key information on the login screen. In future releases, I would like to see employee dashboards. Oracle HCM should come up with ready-made employee dashboards, like very simple ones. Right now, an employee dashboard or a manager dashboard, but these should be readily available. You shouldn't expect a customer to go and design something they need. There are a few basic things any employee or manager in any company would want to see. One of the best things would be a very simple org chart. Now, the org chart is quite poor on Oracle. There are applications that focus only on org charts and look really good, giving a lot of details about a team and its employees. But Oracle's org chart is bad, so to be specific, they should improve it a lot.

Candidate management supports the process from the application stage through offer, onboarding, learning and performance management.
Reporting could be improved. Some changes were made to functionality a year or two ago, and whilst there have certainly been some improvements in some areas (in terms of the dashboard view, for example), we have experienced some difficulty in trying to automate some fairly standard reports to be sent out to our hiring areas regarding current recruitment in their respective areas.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support is very good."
"The solution's scalability potential is very good. We have more than 1,000 users ourselves."
"The feature I find most valuable in Oracle HCM Cloud is 'Journeys'. This feature is widely used across clients for onboarding, offboarding, and other automated tasks without manual intervention."
"Robust and very dependable."
"I like that it is mobile responsive and you can work directly with the vendor on specific requirements that you might have."
"The solution is very good at building out a roadmap based on client needs and feedback."
"The most valuable feature is the support for mobile devices."
"This solution has localized the payroll which is a good thing."
"The talent acquisition and the onboarding components of the system are most valuable."
 

Cons

"From the feedback that I get, the functional side of the payroll could be improved."
"Occasionally there are problems with stability."
"The performance and reaction time can be improved."
"It would be very nice if we were able to roll back transactions from data that was loaded with the data loader."
"Cloud learning can be improved."
"Oracle needs to make some sort of support repository that is up to date."
"I would like to see more direct access for both human resources and employees without so many screens to navigate."
"Although the performance management is good, it could be improved as its functionality is quite basic."
"They could probably add surveying, as in engagement surveys, to their product. That would be something that would be valued by their customers. For instance, Culture Amp is a product that does a lot of the engagement stuff. They're diversifying into other aspects of talent management. It is not yet at the same scale as PageUp People, but it is an excellent product as well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am not normally involved in the product's pricing since it normally involves the packages that a user chooses. Pricing differs based on a case-to-case scenario and client-to-client basis."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"I cannot comment on the cost, as this is handled by a different team."
"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."
"I don't know how much it costs, but I know that everything is included. We don't pay anything extra apart from the licensing fee."
"It is definitely super expensive. Oracle is very, very expensive for what they offer."
"Pricing is largely determined by what is agreed upon."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"PageUp has a different model from other organizations. As part of their pricing structure, they tend to work with you very closely and not charge you for the setup. So, there is one price all inclusive of setup, and for that reason, they become an attractive provider to work with. Here in Australia, the education sector has gravitated very heavily towards PageUp."
