What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is scalable. The solution is best suited for mid-sized to large companies.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I have previously used NetSuite and SAP Business One.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup of Oracle HCM Cloud is complex. It is complex for coding and creating. The solution is highly flexible and has many features with the configuration making it more complex than the NetSuite. The configuration setup takes time.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The price for Oracle HCM Cloud is expensive in Iran, but in other countries, such as Turkey, it can be reasonably priced. 

There are times when the deployment requirements can change and in some cases, we need to have a lot of customization and personalization. This can increase the time the project takes and the cost of the project. 

There are some projects where we need third-party software. For example, in a large Turkey and Dubai company, we use the time and labor inside Oracle, but for the others, we didn't use them. We have to create it in-house or we can buy the missing tool from another company. The integration from these third-party companies costs money.

What other advice do I have?

We make a lot of effort in finding what is the best suitable solution for a company. I would recommend others to do their best and research what solution best suits their company's use case and proceed from there. 

I rate Oracle HCM Cloud a nine out of ten.

Easy to set up with a nice UI and is capable of expansion
Pros and Cons
  • "Its drag-and-drop reporting is great."
  • "Oracle needs to make some sort of support repository that is up to date."

What is our primary use case?

We primarily use the solution for Oracle Taleo. We use it as part of the hiring process and to enter an employee's information. 

What is most valuable?

The solution has a user-friendly interface. It is easy to see data and transactions. The solution is easy to use. 

Its drag-and-drop reporting is great. It's simplified many things for us. 

We have found the initial setup to be easy. 

The solution is stable.

It can scale. 

What needs improvement?

Oracle releases each quarter based on enhancement requests and adds more features with applications.

Oracle needs to make some sort of support repository that is up to date. I've been dealing with some documentation that didn't mention a resolution in a 22D release. The documentation should make a note of issues and when they were resolved. It can be confusing for customers if Oracle isn't clear.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for around two years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Navigation and appearance-wise, there is a bit of instability as users can get very confused as to where things are or what to do. The applications have been completely redesigned, and it is disorienting. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is scalable. It's easy to expand. I'd rate the ability to expand seven out of ten. 

How are customer service and support?

Technical support is pretty good. We are mostly satisfied with the level of assistance we get. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The solution is straightforward and very simple. It's not overly complex. 

We did start with requirement gathering and making documentation for the client's requirements. After that, we finalized the document and started the CRP phase to make configurations. After that, we move over to production. 

It is super-easy to maintain the solution.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I don't deal with licensing and cannot speak to the exact cost.

What other advice do I have?

We are an Oracle partner and an implementer. I'm an Oracle, HCM, and cloud consultant.

We're working with the latest version of the solution. 

I'd recommend the solution to other users. It's easy to use. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

Employee lifecycle management solution that facilitates learning and career development pathways
Pros and Cons
  • "This solution is user friendly and can be used on a mobile phone without a computer."
  • "Although the performance management is good, it could be improved as its functionality is quite basic."

What is our primary use case?

I use the Oracle Learning Cloud and it is a really easy solution to work with. I can take all my courses online, offline and after the solution is updated. All my progress gets tracked. Different learning paths for certain topics are provided and Oracle relates courses across certain topics. 

For my manager, it is easy to understand my progress and how I have advanced. The solution offers good performance management that can be used to facilitate growth discussions with managers. 

What is most valuable?

This solution is user friendly and can be used on a mobile phone without a computer.

What needs improvement?

Although the performance management is good, it could be improved as its functionality is quite basic. The metrics could be improved as well as the solution's ability to integrate with other solutions. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using this solution for four years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

This is a very stable solution. We have not experienced any issues. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

This is a scalable solution. 

How are customer service and support?

I would rate the support for this solution an eight out of ten. They have different ways to raise tickets and a number to call but they aren't always easy to reach. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

I was not involved in the initial setup but I believe that it is easy based on my team's experience. When setting up the solution for customers, we have teams of three including a project manager, functional consultant and a technical consultant. 

What other advice do I have?

Those considering using this solution should have a clear idea of exactly what they are looking for and follow good processes when it comes to setting it up. 

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten because it is a really good solution with small areas of improvement.

Stable, scalable, and has good integration with other solutions; its integration process is easy
Pros and Cons
  • "What I like most about Oracle HCM Cloud is that I didn't see any area that needs to be dramatically improved. I also appreciate that it has good integration with other Oracle products. The process of integrating Oracle HCM Cloud is rather explanatory. I also found the Oracle library to be helpful. As Oracle HCM Cloud is quite a robust solution, I like it versus other solutions. I like the people at Oracle."
  • "Visually, Oracle HCM Cloud needs improvement. For example, the employee portal looks rather old, so it would be awesome if Oracle refreshed its design or if the portal looked more modern. Oracle HCM Cloud works, but visually, it needs improvement."

What is our primary use case?

We used Oracle HCM Cloud for core HR, such as training, career planning, workflow, documentation, and performance management. We used a local solution to cover other functionalities linked to the local legislation, so Oracle HCM Cloud, being a global solution, couldn't cover the rest of the functionalities. In Central Europe, for payroll and local attendance, local solutions need to be used.

What is most valuable?

What I like most about Oracle HCM Cloud is that I didn't see any area that needs to be dramatically improved.

I also appreciate that it has good integration with other Oracle products. The process of integrating Oracle HCM Cloud is rather explanatory.

I also found the Oracle library to be helpful.

As Oracle HCM Cloud is quite a robust solution, I like it versus other solutions. I like the people at Oracle.

What needs improvement?

Visually, Oracle HCM Cloud needs improvement. For example, the employee portal looks rather old, so it would be awesome if Oracle refreshed its design or if the portal looked more modern. Oracle HCM Cloud works, but visually, it needs improvement.

There's nothing specific I'd like added in the next release of Oracle HCM Cloud. Of course, you always have electronic signatures or various levels of electronic validation and advanced payments, but those are more for service-based solutions. Oracle HCM Cloud is also service-based, but it's different from other solutions with specialties; for example, one solution could focus on electronics, while the other could focus on advanced payment. For Oracle to include electronic validation into Oracle HCM Cloud, for example, wouldn't fit the company structure.

For how long have I used the solution?

My experience with Oracle HCM Cloud is three to six months because I took part in its implementation. I wasn't an end-user, but I got accustomed to using Oracle HCM Cloud because I did an integration with it.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Oracle HCM Cloud is a stable product.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Oracle HCM Cloud is a scalable product.

How are customer service and support?

I haven't contacted the technical support team for Oracle HCM Cloud.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup for Oracle HCM Cloud is neither complex nor easy. It's in the middle because it depends on your requirements and inclusions.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Oracle HCM Cloud is pricey, but price-wise, it's now more competitive than in the past year.

Here in Central Europe, people also look at the pricing, but Central Europe falls under the UAE and Abu Dhabi in terms of headquarters, management, and strategy, but those states don't care too much about the pricing.

Pricing is a significant factor in choosing a solution. In the past, Oracle HCM Cloud was compared to the SAP solution, the largest competitor and up to thirty percent higher in price. Now, Oracle HCM Cloud has a price increase of five to ten percent, which could be pricier than SAP now, but it's a more competitive product nowadays and comparable to SAP.

What other advice do I have?

I can't recall the version of Oracle HCM Cloud I implemented, but it was the version between October 2021 to June 2022.

The product was deployed on the cloud, and the local application was on-premises.

Oracle HCM Cloud requires maintenance. Every application requires maintenance, even SaaS, because you still need an administrator who can communicate with support. In Central Europe, you'll find local solutions with better maintenance and support models than what Oracle offers. Oracle is a huge company that has its policies. Oracle-accredited implementation companies in the Czech Republic need to be better.

My company is a partner of Oracle.

I'd give new or potential users of Oracle HCM Cloud the same advice I'd share on other software, HCM, HRRS, or ERP solutions. A coherent and in-depth analysis has to be made, with all the requirements well-defined. Otherwise, the customer will be eaten alive by any implementation company. After all, Oracle HCM Cloud is a global solution, and Oracle has its policies and standards based on good practices, especially in terms of implementation. If you don't define your requirements well for Oracle HCM Cloud, you'll get the standard setup from the implementer, which you may not need at all, or you may want some changes that would cost you a lot. Knowing your complete requirements and communicating those to the implementation team, even at the local level, is essential, or the whole solution would be very pricey.

My rating for Oracle HCM Cloud is eight out of ten.

The valuable features of Oracle HCM Cloud are the frequent updates, if there are any discrepancies, we consult with our record directly and they come up with the solution for the betterment of the cloud.

Integrates well, and is reliable
Pros and Cons
  • "In general, functionality is fine."
  • "In some cases, the price may be lower depending on what is negotiated."

What is our primary use case?

I work for a consulting company. I work with clients who have or are in the process of implementing those systems. I do not use them myself.

I do not have a reselling license. This is an independent consulting firm, and our clients occasionally ask us for advice on ERP systems.

I do not use ERP systems. I work with clients who use ERP systems. I haven't used any ERP system in the last 12 months. ERP systems are used by my customers.

What is most valuable?

In general, functionality is fine. I don't have any specific functional areas that are an issue.

I don't have any issues with the integration.

What needs improvement?

In some cases, the price may be lower depending on what is negotiated.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Oracle HCM Cloud is a stable solution.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Oracle HCM Cloud is scalable.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I do some work with different systems from time to time, such as SAP ERP, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Oracle E-Business Suite.

I am also familiar with Workday.

I've never used any of them. I'm not an end-user. I'm aware of what they're capable of. I understand the process to implement them. I understand the types of issues that must be addressed, but I have never used an ERP system as an end-user.

What about the implementation team?

You will require the assistance of a system implementor.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Pricing is largely determined by what is agreed upon. It's difficult to say that pricing needs improvement, because it depends on what is negotiated and whether you get a good price or not.

What other advice do I have?

Oracle HCM Cloud is a part of Oracle Cloud Fusion. There are many parts such as Financials, Project Accounting, and more. 

You need to have a good, clear design done upfront, and that is well understood by the business. You will need a good system implementation partner. And you must have some level of control over not making changes to standard products. Keep it as close to the standard as possible.

I would rate Oracle HCM Cloud an eight out of ten.

Highly scalable, good application integration, and setup straightforward
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution has good integration with other applications."
  • "I was part of a program I went to where I had a discussion on the latest innovation of the Oracle HCM. I think some of the newer technology innovations, such as gamification and consumerization are areas that could be improved."

What is our primary use case?

Oracle HCM Cloud can be used for workforce management.

What is most valuable?

The solution has good integration with other applications.

What needs improvement?

I was part of a program I went to where I had a discussion on the latest innovation of the Oracle HCM. I think some of the newer technology innovations, such as gamification and consumerization are areas that could be improved. Additionally, there are certain areas of global compliance where there could be improvements. We use a lot of standalone applications for these elements and we are looking forward to having those elements all in one application.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Oracle HCM Cloud for approximately eight years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Oracle HCM Cloud is scalable. Oracle is spending a lot of effort in research and development to increase scalability and speed with the high demand for mobile usage.

We have approximately 30,000 users using this solution in my organization.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

In a previous organization, I used Workday.

How was the initial setup?

The implementation of the solution is easy because it is a cloud solution.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

There is a license required for the use of this solution and we are on an annual license.

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend this solution to others if it fits their organization's use case.

I rate Oracle HCM Cloud an eight out of ten.

Very comprehensive with the additional capability for a balanced scorecard
Pros and Cons
  • "Offers a good balanced scorecard capability."
  • "The interface could be more user friendly."

What is most valuable?

This is a very comprehensive solution, covering every aspect of the HCM profit cycle and the life cycle. It's got from hire to fire. It also has the additional capability for a balanced scorecard, which is a key component of any company evaluation. That comes as part of the balanced scorecard concept, as part of a strategy process within the HCM product portfolio. It's a huge benefit to anyone taking up the Oracle HCM solution.

What needs improvement?

I think the interfaces could be improved because when you're going into the landing page,  the interfaces look a bit blunt when they could be more user-friendly. I'd like to see some additional modules around direct integration into healthcare devices. If you have a lot of wearable devices wher the information could be directly put into the system it might be able to predict the probability that someone might go on sick leave, for example. Health and wellness could be incorporated into the system and it would be good to see integration with the wearables within the product. I'd also like to see more integration with AI.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using this solution for close to four years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

This is a stable product. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Scalability is easily achieved because it's on cloud. 

How are customer service and technical support?

The technical support of Oracle is extremely good because they have a defined platform, and everything is clear. One area that could be improved is when requests are made and they move it across different time zones over the period of a day. In the morning, it might go to Asia and if the issue hasn't been solved by the end of the day there, it gets shifted to Europe which can be frustrating.

How was the initial setup?

With the correct knowledge, the setup is relatively straightforward. It's not a download and install solution like MS office so you need people who know the product. And it's not a difficult process to configure the module because the options for customizations are standardized within the solution itself. The process and procedures for getting the add-on, or the additional functionalities included in the solution are clearly defined in terms of how the customization would work within that solution. You need to have a technical, functional consultant to do the configuration, customizations or any additions that might be required. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate this solution eight out of 10.
