Simple, easy to access and interface is quite user-friendly.
PeopleStrong is good. The only thing is that they have complete SaaS-based solutions. But sometimes, we feel that we should have an API-based integration aspect. This does not exist right now because we have a separate portal for PeopleStrong. They have been logged in via SSO. But if we want to integrate it via API in the current people system, that feature is not available right now.

Onboarding has streamlined hiring and document workflows but still needs a more intuitive interface
Onboarding is user-friendly, and we can map documents and forms based on the requirements of the clients. The recruit-to-hire data mapping is also quite good in Onboarding. I have worked with the Onboarding dashboard extensively. Based on the company culture and the processes they want to integrate within the Onboarding process, we gather those requirements and implement them in the system. The implementation capabilities are quite strong in this regard. SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding is open to experimentation and iteration. The candidate flow from RCM to Onboarding is quite seamless. Forming a candidate into an employee is accomplished within a few clicks, including sending the candidate from Onboarding to EC, which provides a good experience for the client. From version 1.0 to 2.0, things have changed considerably. DocuSign and other integrations have been added to Onboarding, and I believe things are progressing well. Electronic forms during Onboarding have helped us reduce time, and e-signatures and DocuSign have been particularly beneficial. Building forms within the system and uploading them has significantly reduced paperwork and manpower requirements, resulting in considerable time savings.
