Featured Reviews

reviewer951189 - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
IanCampbell - PeerSpot reviewer
CEO at a consultancy with 1-10 employees
Decades of use have delivered secure, customizable control for public sector operations and finance
I have just completed three assessments: one on inventory demand planning, another on using artificial intelligence to bring supplier contracts in portable document format directly into PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft works both internally as well as with third-party products that integrate seamlessly with PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft operates both from a need-to-know-only basis as well as being able at the same time to do group purchase and realize large quantity purchase discounts. My clients have used marketplaces, and it is really industry-specific whether they use one or not, or if there is even one available. I would rate this product nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use the solution for employee and manager services and person management and employee records."
"The solution is stable."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"PeopleSoft is well integrated and has excellent tools to enhance or amend according to business practices."
"We find the Campus Solutions very valuable."
"A valuable feature is FSCM."
"PeopleSoft allows you to schedule upgrades and inform users beforehand. This gives your IT team time to manage the implementation and minimize disruption."
"The customizations allow us to come up with a lot of complex labor rules. In the Philippines, there's a lot of different kinds of rules you need to be in compliance with. The solution offers up a lot of flexibility and customization that is perfect for our region's requirements."
"PeopleSoft is a stable solution and it has a lot of functionality."
"PeopleSoft automatically generates code, making it easier to integrate with third-party or internal systems."
 

Cons

"The solution has many areas in need of improvement, including management, monitoring, interface, dashboard and technical support."
"PeopleSoft lacks integration capabilities."
"In my opinion, it needs more performance, maybe something technical related, because it's very slow for us and even small activities take a while."
"The biggest disadvantage with things like PeopleSoft is that they do continuous support and fixes and upgrades. You get to choose when you want to implement that upgrade. However, in order to keep up, you have to upgrade."
"The reporting needs to be improved."
"Having applications which provide more enhanced features and user-friendly elements."
"Technical support is not very good and needs improvement in the area of speed in responding to issues."
"PeopleSoft could improve by being more user-friendly. It's somewhat awkward to navigate."
"Parsing of CVs is productive but accuracy can be improved."
