Eightfold Talent Intelligence Platform certainly was easier on the implementation side, but the company was pretty focused on a solution that directly integrated with Microsoft Office, so developing a custom agent was a little bit easier for their use case, especially due to the size. However, I didn't get too deep into the implementation because the use case wasn't there after looking deeper into it, so I didn't dive the deepest into the full integration.Eightfold Talent Intelligence Platform could be better integrated with Microsoft tools in that case. I think scalability is there for a large corporation, but for the corporation size that we were using, it wasn't feasible.
From my perspective, I think the usability could use some attention. Eightfold.ai offers modules for talent acquisition, talent management, and other areas like projects. They try to use a common UI for all of them, but it really needs to be more persona-based. That's the thing that I struggle with the most.
We're looking at how eightfold.ai can expand into our corporate landscape and potentially adopt some of our technologies. AI is one of their biggest selling points and capabilities, but there are some other areas that we can expand into, such as workforce management. We'd like them to be able to adopt and leverage some of the platform tools that we have. Those are some things that could be improved upon.
It would be interesting to enable Eightfold to have a user experience that is seamless in terms of single sign on to and from core systems of record. That is, the ability for a user or hiring manager/recruiter to go in and out of Eightfold back into their core system, whether that be Oracle, Workday, SuccessFactors, Cornerstone, etc. It would great to be able to go back and forth with a single sign on capability so that you don't have to log in and out of applications, where it's a bidirectional single sign on.
We're doing user testing now, and on the calibration page, there's no publish button. I have to go to overview to publish it. It could be user error, but it would be nice to be able to easily figure out where buttons are and what they do.
