Decades of use have delivered secure, customizable control for public sector operations and finance
I have just completed three assessments: one on inventory demand planning, another on using artificial intelligence to bring supplier contracts in portable document format directly into PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft works both internally as well as with third-party products that integrate seamlessly with PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft operates both from a need-to-know-only basis as well as being able at the same time to do group purchase and realize large quantity purchase discounts. My clients have used marketplaces, and it is really industry-specific whether they use one or not, or if there is even one available. I would rate this product nine out of ten.

Can accomplish more with this tool than with a website or shared drive, yet reporting is weak
A large percentage of our employee base is remote at client locations. A web-based VMS allows anyone to access our catalog, and to work on their professional development, 24/7, regardless of location. I am a single system admin for over 600 users. I can accomplish much more with this tool than with a website or shared drive that doesn't have reporting, assignment, and other capabilities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a very stable ERP solution, supported on Oracle Cloud and providing extensive features such as perfect load balancing and automatic scaling of the ERP deployment to handle millions of users."
"I like its wide variety and its use in many applications; receivables, payables, general ledger."
"I like the speed of the processing and how easy it is to use."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The breadcrumb approach to navigation in PeopleSoft is good. nVision is also a good supplement."
"I think it's a very strong, solid product, very mature."
"PeopleSoft is well integrated and has excellent tools to enhance or amend according to business practices."
"Our end process is going through multiple procure-to-pay systems, so the most valuable feature of PeopleSoft is the collaboration that it provides between our procurement/purchasing and accounts payable."
"SilkRoad support has been very responsible and helpful."
 

Cons

"The product was too complicated when it came to navigating through multiple places and the search filters weren't great."
"My developers want to use more HTML instead of the specialized tool, PeopleTools because, they say, it's better from a user perspective."
"PCM, the procurement side, is weak and is far from the strongest product."
"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."
"Tools and UI could be enhanced."
"It would be helpful for the end-user if the reports were customized. They would be able to select the fields while generating their reports."
"Mobility isn’t the greatest."
"The Time and Labor module is not that flexible."
"The ability to view and report on, then manage data is not very robust."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The main issue we have with the solution is that it is very expensive."
"The licensing cost for PeopleSoft is 3,500 per course and the annual subscription fee is 6,500."
"This solution offers annual licensing. We pay per user."
"The solution is priced per module."
"Mostly yearly payments are to be made toward licensing costs. It is not much of an expensive solution."
"One of the cheapest solutions available and also one of the best."
"PeopleSoft has a yearly maintenance fee."
"The tool is expensive."
