Saptak Samadder

Assistant Manager at Kashiv Biosciences

HR has gained clear analytics for attrition, goals, and appraisals and manages talent efficiently

SAP SuccessFactors has a low error rate. We had many ad hoc reports that we needed to generate, and it was very easy to do so in SAP SuccessFactors. 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. We did not depend on advanced Excel in those cases. We generated a lot of detailed reports whenever we needed them during emergency cases or board meetings. A lot of usefulness and time were saved in those cases. I will also mention that we conducted a comparative study for some recruitment cases. We had a recruitment model where we were looking for a very niche profile. Since the job profile was really different and rare, we had to depend on analytics to understand and shortlist from a large pool of candidates that we already had in our database. Analytics was really helpful in this situation.

The video function could be improved. Now that we do a lot of digital interviews, you can actually have your own video function. Still, I would prefer if it were more of a team function where you could change the background, for example. With everyone currently working from home offices due to lockdowns, some of the backgrounds look quite unprofessional. It would be nice if we could have our own unique background — for branding purposes during interviews. When we schedule an interview, in the message function, you can create a placeholder using a name, etc. I would like to have more generic placeholders and for them to be included in the message function when you schedule the interview.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The overall functionality of the solution is very good."

"The main advantage of SuccessFactors is its ability to add many types of integrations within the SAP Cloud platform, where many useful modules can be implemented alongside SuccessFactors as third-party integrations, and this capability to extend the system is a big plus."

"This solution provides up with an easy way to on/off-board staff, as well as actioning internal transfers."

"The performance management system of SuccessFactors is very valuable."

"SuccessFactors' best features are talent management and HR Analytics."

"The best features that were working well for us was the Goal Management and Performance Management. They were the most valuable to our organization."

"We are partners with a company and we are responsible for using this software for our clients."

"In terms of user experience, it is quite good."

More SAP SuccessFactors pros

"From my experience, there's no better system currently on the market."

"It's just an easy solution to connect with."

Cons

"Also, it would be helpful if they could improve its ability to localize the product to Nigeria."

"The integration with Employee Central and Employee Central Payroll needs improvement as the client is still considering on-premises solutions."

"SAP SuccessFactors' pricing structure could be improved."

"The reporting tool is not as good as IBM Cognos which is very, very powerful."

"The price of the solution could improve, it is too high."

"There's room for improvement in SAP SuccessFactors, particularly in terms of innovation. I'd like more flexibility in its functionality and more customization. In terms of what additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of the product, it depends on the module because you have various modules in SAP SuccessFactors, so it's easier to go module by module and understand what features you have in each module. The product has a lot of features coming up, but the product being more mobile, or having mobile features would be nice."

"We had stability issues very often during the end of the year and after updates."

"The graphical user interface (GUI) is not very friendly. On the homepage, it is not possible to place advisories or announcements at the top."

More SAP SuccessFactors cons

"The video function could be improved. It would be nice if we could have our own unique background — for branding purposes during interviews."

"The video function could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't want to comment on the license cost, to be honest. It could be about $1,000 approximately per customer. However, it's very flexible in terms of the licensing costs depending on the volume and depending on the deal of installation."

"I have raised change requests for some modules within SuccessFactors. For example, when you're using Recruiting Management, there's a feature called Interview Central you can use to reach the candidates you're interviewing. I wanted to add a writing assessment when I select the competency on that platform. It varies from consultant to consultant, depending on what module they use."

"The price of the solution is highly expensive."

"We are on an annual subscription to use SAP SuccessFactors. The pricing model is something that they could restructure a bit better. If it was based differently on the type of usage it would help."

"The cost of SAP SuccessFactors is reasonable."

"It is not cheap, but it is reasonable."

"For SAP, the product is pricey, both CAPEX and the OPEX. It's something that could be improved."

"The licensing fees are based on the number of modules that are being used, and the number of users."

More SAP SuccessFactors pricing and cost advice

"We pay a fixed amount that includes support. I think it's a very good deal actually."
