Find out in this report how the two Cloud HCM solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
The accuracy with timekeeping has been one of the largest game changers.
We have saved time and money by doing our own payroll in-house and by utilizing Paycom as a software system to provide us with the support we need to run an efficient operation.
Customer support is rated ten out of ten.
They immediately responded to me, and the support was awesome.
Our specific Paycom representative is always very responsive.
Since they have a lot of understanding about HR metrics and KPIs, they understand what the expectations are.
since we have gone live with Paycom, they have implemented at least two of our suggestions to improve our work around those issues.
I think there are some more complex employee tracking metrics and features that could be useful as we scale, such as if an employee has an incident that we need to file or different workflows where managers could request employee changes, and then it comes to us in Human Resources to make those changes.
Paycom's scalability is not good because you have to do everything one at a time.
SAP SuccessFactors is 100 percent reliable and one of the biggest in the market.
We have implemented it for 25,000 employees, scaling from 7,000 to 25,000 using the same set of rules, and it was not difficult.
Right now, I do not think ADP or Paycom are replaceable with other software that I have used.
I hardly ever encounter any stability issues, as SAP SuccessFactors is very good and stable.
The solution is absolutely stable.
The expectation from a non-IT representative is high.
The lack of a sandbox and the lack of being able to view as a different viewer is extremely frustrating in this system.
Customer service is very important to us because if you don't have good customer service and a good account manager, you lose it.
I wish Paycom would spend more time training their new reps and not handing off what I would consider a legacy client to someone that is brand new.
Advisories can only be placed at the bottom, which is less effective as employees may not scroll down to see them.
The change management process during the initial launch was not effectively handled, leading to a poor user experience.
Workforce analytics is still challenging due to customizations. It does not provide flexibility in terms of analytics, and we have to customize extensively.
I did not find it to be very expensive overall, and the fees seemed reasonable.
The licensing cost is not expensive now.
Pricing is a bit high and on the higher side.
The licensing costs are quite high, which is a typical scenario for such solutions.
The big takeaway is that Paycom is very customizable, so for organizations that might be growing and scaling, and that may change in terms of how they use the platform over time, the platform can really evolve with you as the organization changes and evolves.
The interface itself is very intuitive as far as a brand new user could log in and with a few clicks figure out where things live and how to make changes really easily.
The best feature of Paycom is that punches are clearly visible in the timecard in sequence. This is a very useful feature.
We also created many in-house reports according to our specific requirements with the help of this tool, which was a really big game changer for us.
Employees can view their goals, performance, ratings, and employee information, which enhances the employee experience.
SAP SuccessFactors has advantages in providing AI-driven initiatives such as candidate screening and matching features within the recruitment module.
