Beautifully designed and easy to implement but has some bugs
While it is a beautiful solution in terms of design, we are facing some issues on the payroll side. When payroll processing, we are getting rising service requests and we are getting delayed responses from support. It can take 20 to 30 days to get a solution. I'm working on SaaS environment and we are not able to build some business condition validations like validations. For example, if you use a business trip request feature, we are having some validations, yet we have to check the budget availability. We are capturing that budget availability yet we are not able to do the consolidation and documentation. It's not seamless.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a configurable, scalable solution."
"We have not had any issues with the stability of this solution."
"The solution has good integration with other applications."
"Oracle HCM Cloud adds the latest features on a quarterly basis to the cloud, which makes it very easy for customers to adapt to the new features."
"We have 35,000 employees in our organization, so we consider the solution to be scalable."
"Robust and very dependable."
"What I like best about Oracle HCM Cloud is that its configuration is okay. I also like it in terms of updates. Product updates that take place from time to time improve Oracle HCM Cloud. What I also found valuable in the product is that since it's on cloud, you can work with it from any place."
"The solution has new features like AI-embedded solutions that are very useful for helping customers gain a lot of new insights."
"PeopleStrong Alt is flexible because it allows customization and the user's experience is very good."
"The product has valuable flexibility for customization, user interface, and search capabilities."
"Some of the most valuable features are the onboarding experience of new employees, the employee service portal, and the entire performance management system."
"The mobile responsiveness is strong."
"The UI and UX are fantastic."
"The hiring process is good. It will create a process-oriented procedure in terms of hiring, promotion, the movement of people, and other related HR tasks."
"It has the capability of reporting. We, as a business team, found it good. In fact, we migrated to PeopleStrong essentially because of its reporting feature."
 

Cons

"I was part of a program I went to where I had a discussion on the latest innovation of the Oracle HCM. I think some of the newer technology innovations, such as gamification and consumerization are areas that could be improved."
"The product needs to keep improving the integration tools and the tools to load the data - that whole mechanism - in order to allow for flexibility in the configuration."
"The solution has much room for improvement in all the modules."
"Oracle HCM Cloud could improve by adding AI and more offline capabilities."
"The data uploading part and backup could be better. They are a bit complex. Oracle is continuously changing it from one functionality to another. It's a bit unstable right now, and it's basically on the backend data upload part. If I have to upload, for example, data for 100 employees, it's a bit of a challenge for an end-user. It can be difficult if you're not a technical person and an end-user like me. I administer the platform, and if I get a request to upload and I'm not a technical person, then I'm just lost. I have to do some research and then complete the task. But it's evolving, and I hope it's more user-friendly in the future. In the next release, I would like a more stable mobile application. The current version isn't very stable. It takes time to open, and although they have come up with new UI pages, a few open areas need to be addressed. I would also like to see more robust and user-friendly data uploading techniques that would be helpful for end users like us. We don't have a technical background, and we just want to upload the data for our day-to-day operations."
"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."
"There should be more digital assistance included, like chatbots."
"The GUI interface should be more user-friendly."
"They had challenges getting the performance management system up and integrated with our systems."
"The global scalability and support could improve."
"It would be helpful if you could work offline because sometimes, we have problems with internet connectivity."
"The solution's workflow can improve by adding more customization at the organizational level."
"They could include a sort of collaborative platform where employees are able to work together with a chat mechanism like WhatsApp and video chat."
"They could improve talent management capabilities."
"Sometimes, we feel that we should have an API-based integration aspect."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is definitely super expensive. Oracle is very, very expensive for what they offer."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"Pricing is largely determined by what is agreed upon."
"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."
"The contract for one of them will be extended for three years and for another one for two years. One of them is paying monthly, and another one is paying per quarter. I don't know about the third one. So, it differs."
"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."
"The product could be more affordable."
"The solution is expensive."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"It's very reasonably priced. It is paid per employee."
"The product has reasonable pricing."
