It's so easy to use that a customer can easily understand the process with zero knowledge of the system
Ramco is user-friendly. The UA is excellent and so easy to use that a customer can easily understand the process with zero knowledge of the system. We can easily walk a new user through the user guide. For each ESS MSS, I can log in to the ESS access. And documentation is available. Ramco doesn't charge much when customers request custom KPI calculations and other custom features. Workday and SAP impose a high charge. Ramco's bots are excellent, whereas Workday doesn't have an automated system and is only now developing a mobile app.

Integrated employee data has improved HR coordination but reporting and interface still need work
The GUI of SAP SuccessFactors Learning is still not very good. The drop-downs are too limited. One thing I want to have is an advisory banner with highlighted font that employees can visibly see during login, but support indicated this cannot be done. I have already raised this request to the support team, and they mentioned that the same request has come from other companies.

Pros

"Ramco is user-friendly. The UA is excellent and so easy to use that a customer can easily understand the process with zero knowledge of the system. We can easily walk a new user through the user guide. For each ESS MSS, I can log in to the ESS access. and documentation is available."
"It is a good product, and it is suitable for different client requirements. It has customization options and flexibility. You can customize a report or configure the workflow based on your requirements. Everything is there in the product, and you can customize it as per your requirement. Our clients found the automation of the payroll, leave attendance, and onboarding modules the most valuable. The Time and Attendance module is fully integrated with this solution and supports multiple data entry modes, such as barcode, biometric device, fingerprints, and face reading. Its core HR module includes features like movement, expense management, exit, and separation. The compensation and benefits module includes features like welfare, retirement, and superannuation. It also has analytical tools. You can create a real-time report based on your requirements. You can also publish that report in different formats, such as Excel, PDF, HTML, etc. It has a chatbot feature, which is using machine learning and natural language. You can ask questions about your leave balance, attendance, or things like that, and you will get an immediate reply from the chatbot. It also supports approval through email."
"Once we implemented this solution, it was customizable for our needs and this has been the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"Ramco HCM stands out due to its reliability and up-to-date compliance with legal, statutory, and regulatory requirements."
"Payroll processing is very easy. SQL rules can be attached to any pay elements."
"Ramco HCM is a stable system that doesn't have downtime or fluctuation issues. It can also take large volumes and scale up very fast."
"In general, the solution is very flexible and can be configured in multiple ways."
"The performance management system is really good."
"It is a very stable tool. It is the most stable security application."
"The platform now offers an improved user interface with options like custom cards and banners that enhance the user experience."
"The product offers a lot of information which we can share with systems."
"SAP SuccessFactors Learning easily interfaces with our other systems."
"The platform's most valuable feature is personalized learning recommendations."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"It is a stable solution."
"The solution is a user-friendly application for learning, designing, and setting up courses."
 

Cons

"The product itself sometimes feels inconsistent because it comes with bugs."
"One area for improvement in Ramco HCM is its UI, which could be more intuitive. Another area for improvement in the system is that it can be challenging to make some modular-based changes to it."
"The talent management and performance appraisal modules could use some improvement."
"The mobile app for this solution could be improved as it lacks many features."
"The mobile app and web page user experience could be more user friendly."
"Ramco could be a bit faster and offer more use cases. A prime aim is to get analytics and this is lacking in Ramco. This lack of reporting is one of the reasons we are moving away from using Ramco."
"They can improve the configuration time because it takes more time than other products to configure the system. It could be because they are managing this single product for all countries, but it would be good if they improve the implementation time because we need to implement the solutions within a timeline. They should provide some kind of auto-configuration so that the system can be configured and implemented within a certain timeline. Implementors should have a provision to configure the system in a short time. There should also be an option to move the setup or configuration from staging to production to save time. These types of automation should be there."
"The entire UI/UX of the solution can be improved drastically."
"SAP SuccessFactors Learning's e-learning portal has a very poor interface when compared to Cornerstone or PeopleFluent. It's a very basic interface, but I know that it has a very good foundation."
"The technical support team has room for improvement."
"The application integration between cloud and on-premises storage has been completed. However, there is still room for improvement in integrating EC and SAP applications."
"There is no portal within the tool for collaboration."
"The certifications are valid for only six months."
"It's very difficult to do simple activities using the tool, like getting a report."
"The product must make the integrations more seamless."
"SAP SuccessFactors Learning doesn't have a punch-in and punch-out facility."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Their customized solution is pretty expensive but much cheaper than its competitors."
"I am not aware of the price because I was working in the implementation team, but pricing is generally based on the requirement, modules, headcount, and country."
"This solution is priced in the middle compared to other solutions on the market."
"The additional costs in the solution are based on usage and in regard to the functionalities or services leveraged."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a one out of ten."
"SAP SuccessFactors Learning is an on-premise solution, there is a one-time fee, which will be given by a company during the implementation. Additionally, there are support fees, which are annual."
"The price of SAP SuccessFactors Learning could be better, it is expensive. There is an annual subscription. It's overpriced for small enterprises."
"A company is required to pay annual licensing fees."
"Compared to Workday, SAP SuccessFactors Learning is not an expensive solution."
"The solution is expensive, but it's a good product."
"The tool's licensing model is very straightforward...You will get the relevant mail from SAP, and accordingly, you have to proceed with the provisioning enablement, after which you can start the configuration."
