Featured Reviews

IanCampbell - PeerSpot reviewer
Saves time through transclusion - using a single record across multiple modules
The most valuable feature is the module integration, which saves time through transclusion - using a single record across multiple modules. The user interface has improved significantly. The current client redesigns work centers per subsidiary business unit, making navigation more intuitive and easier for end users. Reporting and analytics capabilities have greatly improved.
Vibha  Mishra - PeerSpot reviewer
Provide performance management and HR operations but lacks AI capabilities
Using PeopleStrong, uploading modules, and downloading reports was very easy. The process was hassle-free and user-friendly. We use PeopleStrong for performance management and HR operations, such as storing data and handling documentation when a new person joins the company. For learning and…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"PeopleSoft is resilient and has the flexibility for us to customize it."
"The solution's scalability is good."
"In general, this solution is user friendly and also performs well. There are two types of forms. One is a standardized form, which you can define things into. The other, you can customize so more repetition can be done in an even manner. That way, it can be designed for what the public or user actually wants. It's not very tough for any person, or layman to understand exactly what the screen requires one to do."
"PeopleSoft is easy to understand, where any end user that is logged in can easily navigate through the menus."
"PeopleSoft automatically generates code, making it easier to integrate with third-party or internal systems."
"The integration between Human Capital Management (HCM) and PeopleSoft is an important feature."
"The most valuable feature is ERP application information."
"The customization and catering to our specific needs have helped."
"The UI and UX are fantastic."
"It is priced low."
"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."
"PeopleStrong Alt is flexible because it allows customization and the user's experience is very good."
"Some of the most valuable features are the onboarding experience of new employees, the employee service portal, and the entire performance management system."
"The product has valuable flexibility for customization, user interface, and search capabilities."
"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."
 

Cons

"There can occasionally be complexity in the initial setup."
"The area that could be improved is the upgrade process, it's not the easiest. Oracle stopped supporting our version. So we have to move either to the cloud or work in a non-supported situation. That was certainly a disadvantage. That's also the reason why we decided not to stay with Oracle. Now we are moving to SAP."
"The solution could improve by offering PeopleSoft site licenses. Currently, Oracle is pushing for everyone to transition to the cloud, but clients are discontent with this approach. Offering new PeopleSoft site licenses would be the most beneficial for our clients."
"I would like to see better support, bug fixing, and documentation."
"The Work Center feature in PeopleSoft is a step in the right direction in consolidating someone's role-based interaction with the system. This enhanced functionality streamlines workflows and improves efficiency."
"Areas that need improvement are the add-ons to the fluid pages and additional features in SCM and finance, both functionally and technically."
"The UI and user experience are not great, and it's not as feature-rich as today's systems. Furthermore, our implementation does not include all the components we need, like payroll or some other functions."
"One of the areas that could improve is the capability of utilizing mobile for some of the self-service activities that are missing. They are running on the older platform. What is happening is people are focusing on the cloud. PeopleSoft is a good provider and should into the cloud. That could be an advantage for them. Customers would not have to go find another solution that is a completely different platform that has different functionality altogether."
"Sometimes, we feel that we should have an API-based integration aspect."
"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 had challenges getting the performance management system up and integrated with our systems."
"The global scalability and support could improve."
"They could improve talent management capabilities."
"PeopleStrong could make it AI-friendly."
"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."

"The solution is priced per module."

"The expenses related to the solution are nominal."
