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…
Henrik Aminoff - PeerSpot reviewer
A tool to manage HR master data in a single system that needs to improve on the API front
As a developer, I can say that some of Sympa HR's back-end functionalities, like the API systems, aren't fully fledged or modern enough, a downside of which Sympa is aware. My previous company had some kind of relationship with Sympa, and I used to attend meetings with Sympa's development teams regarding Sympa HR's API integrations in and out.

Pros

"This solution has localized the payroll which is a good thing."
"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."

Cons

"Oracle HCM Cloud could improve by adding AI and more offline capabilities."
"Oracle should have different bundles to provide access to courses. Then, we would be able to increase our knowledge on how to use Oracle applications."
"Oracle's technical support is generally satisfactory yet lacks flexibility and rapid response times."
"Product integration, particularly with collaboration tools, is lacking in this solution."
"I would like to see improvements in the user experience, specifically reducing the number of clicks required to achieve desired outcomes. Additionally, enhancing the look and feel of the front end and allowing for a greater level of configuration would be beneficial. Its pricing should be less."

"The interface could be more user friendly."
"The support from Oracle HCM Cloud is great, they are responsive and helpful. However, they still could improve."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Oracle HCM Cloud could improve. However, everyone would like the price of a solution they are using to be less expensive."
"The cost of Oracle HCM Cloud is high, it could be reduced. There is an annual subscription and it is user-based."
"It is definitely super expensive. Oracle is very, very expensive for what they offer."
"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 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."
"The price for Oracle HCM Cloud is expensive in Iran, but in other countries, such as Turkey, it can be reasonably priced."
"There is a license required for the use of this solution and we are on an annual license."
