PeopleSoft Reviews

The ability to fully customize it for our needs is huge. It's by far the most valuable feature for us when it comes to HR management.

We're the federal government, so our need for a customized solution for HR management is of primary importance. I'd say that our level of customization is 80% because our HR services for employees is so varied. PeopleSoft allows us to easily customize it to fit our needs.

From an administration perspective, I think Oracle needs more clarity on their road map as to where they are going to improve the product. This would helps us with planning future customizations to make it fit our needs better. Right now, there's just not enough clarity to what the product will feature in the future.

We've had no issues with deployment.

Stability is about 4/5.

Scalability is about 5/5.

I rate technical support a 4/5. It needs some improvement.

There are other modules, but HR is one of the most popular modules in PeopleSoft so it should be used heavily by federal government, state government, and all other private sector businesses.

It’s more configurable than it used to be. This makes it easier. You have opportunities where coding is not required and I think that’s the direction they are heading in, but if you have complex needs this does create an issue.

It has definitely evolved over time. I like the direction they are going in. It’s more robust now than it used to be, although sometimes that’s a good thing and sometimes a bad thing!

It requires more technical expertise to weed through code and see what’s happening behind the scenes to actually deliver a solution that the end user is happy with. They are trying to make it more flexible. It certainly requires more technical savvy expertise than in the past.

I have been working with PeopleSoft for around 15 years.

First deployment always takes a little work, and we came from the legacy system to the PeopleSoft world. Within the legacy world, we had three systems that didn’t really communicate with one another. I can’t say that it’s become easier over time, from our first implementation to what I deal with now. It’s a complex process, as it just depends on how many systems you are working with and maintaining. I think the first one was certainly easier than the upgrades that we have to deal with since.

We used legacy systems previously.

I would definitely recommend for people to look around at other vendor software. It of course depends on the needs of that business. I think it’s a good product it has its problems because the software is made to fit across many organizations as Oracle tries to make it fit across many industries. However, I definitely enjoy working with the software as I have been working with them for so long.

PeopleSoft HCM is a mature, flexible and robust product. It integrates very well with our IT infrastructure. Its user interface is very good, too.

PeopleSoft is a great product that helps you improve processes in the Human Resources department. Its integrated modules are a better fit into our business processes.

Mobility is an area that has evolved a lot in recent years at PeopleSoft, so I think it would be an area of product improvement. The performance in specific transactions for payroll processes linked to time control would also help to improve the product.

No issues.

It's stable.

No issues.

It’s a very robust and mature product, and perhaps it’s the first HCM product that came out onto the market. It integrates very well with our existing infrastructure, and even though we try not to customize it very much, it is very customizable, which fits our business needs very well. Flexibility is very good for us.

This is a very customizable tool. Whenever my company has a unique need, I am able to quickly use this product to adapt to it.

I think this is coming along as we speak, but mobility isn’t the greatest. PeopleSoft on mobile devices has been a bit of an issue, but now there’s a new interface that is able to better function for that need. It’s still in initial stages, but that’s one area that I see for improvement.

Over 10 years.

I wasn’t the one who initially deployed it, as I’ve been here for less than 10 years. However, I deployed PeopleSoft seven years ago. Whenever we deploy anything there’s always some problems, but no big issues.

No, I don’t think so.

No, I also don’t think so. Just last week we deployed something new and we had no issues.

It's great, 8/10.

Good, overall. Very good.

No, PeopleSoft was one of the first of its kind, so I’ve personally never used any other product.

No, PeopleSoft was the first of its kind.

You need to analyze what the current state of your company is and consider what your needs are. PeopleSoft is definitely a great product though.
