Director at Edge HR
Has all-inclusive pricing and good talent acquisition and onboarding components, and is an excellent product for mid-sized to large organizations
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.
ManujGupta - PeerSpot reviewer
Chief Executive Officer at Orane Consulting Pvt Ltd
Has improved employee satisfaction and streamlined real-time data management
In terms of customizations in specific modules for industry requirements, SAP SuccessFactors is much more generic and does not comply many times with industry requirements as a vertical. In my experience with SuccessFactors' analytics capabilities influencing decision-making, workforce analytics is still challenging due to customizations. It does not provide flexibility in terms of analytics, and we have to customize extensively. For the future of the product, I would like to see more AI implementation, Python integrations, and GPT integrations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The talent acquisition and the onboarding components of the system are most valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the onboarding module, which enables candidates to fill in their details online and smoothly transitions data from the recruitment module into the SAP database."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten...It is a stable solution."
"The cloud security and the correct features for payroll calculations, once issues are resolved, are valuable aspects of this product."
"HR and managers can use the onboarding tool to help new employees prepare for their first day on the job, which can help them acclimate to the company culture and reduce anxiety."
"The interface is really useful and it's very easy to combine different information. For example, we can easily get reports that we need. It's very easy to create reports."
"SuccessFactors' best features are talent management and HR Analytics."
"SAP SuccessFactors is a very reliable and stable solution."
"They have succeeded in sustaining a powerful system supporting their philosophy."
 

Cons

"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."
"There is not much scope for enhancements, personalization, or customization with the cloud-based variant of this solution, which could be improved."
"There are some limiting aspects to this product."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"There is an area of improvement in integrating SuccessFactors with different platforms."
"I think there is room for improvement in user friendliness. In my experience, users are sometimes confused about how to use the solution."
"SAP SuccessFactors could improve learning management. The module is desperate and should be included in the primary solution. Additionally, it is missing some business use cases."
"SAP SuccessFactors needs to improve the LMS and performance management."
"They should be more user friendly and give us more tools to make it more flexible."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Probably, it is one of the priciest products, and is very costly to put up and maintain but because it is a good solution end to end, people take it."
"The product is expensive. The product is worth the money you pay for it."
"Due to the way in which we purchased SuccessFactors as a module along with other SAP modules, we were able to procure it at a slightly better price than usual. I would rate their pricing 5/5 stars."
"We don't utilize even half of the licenses because not everyone uses them. With SAP SuccessFactors, though, we're now conducting all our performance evaluations within the system, so I suppose we're making better use of those licenses. As for SAP for employee services and internal benefits processing, we do have licenses for those but don't utilize them."
"It is not cheap, but it is reasonable."
"The price of the solution is highly expensive."
"The solution is on the expensive side but is definitely worth the money."
"This is a more costly solution than comparable products, and training is not available in the open-market, so this has to be purchased separately from the vendor."
