IT Manager at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
Has many features in need of improvement, including its monitoring, interface, dashboard and technical support
The solution has many areas in need of improvement. I cannot cite just one or two. These include management, monitoring, interface, dashboard and technical support, by way of example. A checklist should be included and the user interface should be addressed. The solution has a function which allows one to give feedback for every employee and to do so overall. The visibility, GUI and features involved in the feedback function are not up to snuff. Employee service details are an issue.

Supports recruitment workflows effectively but requires better AI search and mobile capabilities
Oracle Taleo lacks AI right now when everyone is transitioning into AI. It is very limited with a single word search. A chatbot could be added to Oracle Taleo as most of the current existing tools have. Career site redirection could be more advanced with the user interface.AI-assisted search can help in the sourcing platform, which would be an added advantage compared to Oracle Taleo. The filters are good, but when trying to use a Boolean search or customize search options, it only takes a limited selection of keywords. AI could help in more advanced search capability, which might be a drawback for Oracle Taleo. Additionally, creating campaigns and bulk messaging is lacking.Regarding the mobile-friendly candidate experience, there are better options from other tools. You are limited to the approval part. Difficulties arise when wanting access to applications or dashboards connected to Oracle Taleo or viewing the transition on mobile.When it comes to stability and performance, there are prior communications about downtimes on Saturdays, but there are some issues during weekdays which are faced occasionally. The scalability aspect is not quite scalable.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is stable."
"We use the solution for employee and manager services and person management and employee records."
"It has allowed us to be able to source candidates, have them apply for the job, or put in applications online, and all of our onboarding is done via the web as well, which makes everything easy, stable, and reliable."
"Good integration capabilities and extensibility."
"The solution offers good benefits for administrators."
"We had no tracking system prior, so this was a huge improvement."
"The product's stability is good."
"It's huge, as it is revenue for us as we sell our training to hospitals and hospital systems, as well as through e-commerce for individual purchases."
"Oracle Taleo's integration capabilities are good."
"It works okay, I've found good resources using Taleo, it saved me a lot of time, I just put a requisition in and then I just grab the candidates, the resumes, and I scan them, okay, I want this guy, I don't want that guy, the rest is done by HR, so it's less trouble for me as a manager, and I am dealing with a very special group of people."
 

Cons

"The solution has many areas in need of improvement, including management, monitoring, interface, dashboard and technical support."
"Taleo doesn't really provide us with the systems that we need."
"The solution should be more intuitive and user-friendly when navigating the different pages within Oracle."
"The product was not very sophisticated in terms of what it could do."
"There are always going to be little caveats here and there that you might not have known about as far as changes are concerned, however, it's not business-oriented to the point where the business shuts down."
"It only supports soft calls with a daily limit, which is a concern."
"Lacks some systems that we need."
"When it comes to the scalability aspect, I do not find it scalable."
"The bulk recruitment feature does not work well."
