Streamlines HR operations and reduces management through valuable self-service features
We used Oracle HCM Cloud for HRMS to access without a perpetual license. We aimed to transition employees to the cloud because Oracle planned to stop support for E Business Suite by twenty twenty-five. We wanted to test and understand how Oracle HCM Cloud would support our business needs It…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Recruitment, talent management, and payroll are the most important features of talent management, especially in the Middle East, where I work. Performance management includes objective settings, performance evaluation, talent review, and succession planning. It also covers goal cascading, setting objectives, performance evaluations, and midyear reviews for performance improvement."
"All the features are good."
"We have 35,000 employees in our organization, so we consider the solution to be scalable."
"We haven't had a single issue with stability, and we've been using it for more than three years."
"Our overall evaluation of Oracle HCM Cloud as a general ledger tool is mixed. It is a comprehensive and versatile piece of software."
"I like that it is mobile responsive and you can work directly with the vendor on specific requirements that you might have."
"The application design is beautiful."
"We have not had any issues with the stability of this solution."
"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."
"The UI and UX are fantastic."
"The mobile responsiveness is strong."
"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."
"The product has valuable flexibility for customization, user interface, and search capabilities."
"It is priced low."
"Some of the most valuable features are the onboarding experience of new employees, the employee service portal, and the entire performance management system."
"PeopleStrong Alt is flexible because it allows customization and the user's experience is very good."
 

Cons

"The solution's approvals hierarchy or employee hierarchy needs some improvement and more flexibility."
"In some geographies, you might not find specific localizations. For example, here in Turkey, we can use all Oracle Cloud modules except for payroll. The Oracle payroll module isn't localized for the Turkish system. So, we need to integrate a separate, localized payroll solution with Oracle HCM."
"Cloud learning can be improved."
"Lacks relevancy for the current generation."
"The UI needs improvement."
"Legal local legislation integration could improve."
"Oracle needs to make some sort of support repository that is up to date."
"I think it could use more features, perhaps artificial intelligence, since that's becoming more prominent in the world, and it's not yet implemented in HCM."
"It would be helpful if you could work offline because sometimes, we have problems with internet connectivity."
"Sometimes, we feel that we should have an API-based integration aspect."
"The solution's workflow can improve by adding more customization at the organizational level."
"They could improve talent management capabilities."
"They had challenges getting the performance management system up and integrated with our systems."
"PeopleStrong could make it AI-friendly."
"The global scalability and support could improve."
"They could include a sort of collaborative platform where employees are able to work together with a chat mechanism like WhatsApp and video chat."

"According to the Turkish market, the pricing is a little bit expensive."
"I rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten."
"Though I cannot comment on the solution's cost, a fixed cost is involved based on my understanding. The cost multiplies based on the number of users."
