Featured Reviews

Prashant Shetty - PeerSpot reviewer

A tool to help manage global payroll that needs to improve the area of customization after its implementation
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a six out of ten. With ADP GlobalView Payroll, if I have to scale up the operations, one of the practical challenges I would like to highlight here is that in the post-implementation phase, if there are any new system enhancements or customization requests, it takes a lot of time to work with ADP to implement such changes. In the present time, every business has to operate in an agile manner, but I think that when it comes to the area revolving around change and control, there is a cost involved in ADP, and it comes as part of ADP's global contract. Most of the time, users may find that the prices quoted are not reasonable to justify the efforts involved from ADP's end. Most of the companies that fall under the category of Fortune 100 use ADP GlobalView Payroll, especially in the APAC region and Europe. The good thing with ADP GlobalView Payroll is that its system can be integrated with any HR system, like Workday or SAP SuccessFactors, since the integration is very seamless because many companies use global HR systems.

Has connected financial data across departments and improved future cash flow planning
I would like to improve the integration with other solutions, as I need everything integrated, like the HR module, purchase module, SCM, production, and engineering. Each and every module should be connected to the finance module, and I think Oracle provides the right solution. Also, SAP, IFS, or Microsoft Dynamics 365 offer some solutions, but I am not as happy with them as I am with Oracle. I believe that Oracle E-Business Suite could improve by transitioning from Java-based scripts in our system to a web-based environment. While Oracle already has JD Edwards available in web-based format, I think it needs to be smoother for optimization and presentation in the future. In comparison, IFS is fully web-based, and all applications are sufficiently good and user-friendly. We are developing and trying to improve to a web-based setup, but it is currently too costly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"ADP is a good solution if you want simple, static systems."
"If someone wants a good payroll system with a good presence in the APAC region and Europe, then without a doubt, ADP GlobalView Payroll falls at the top of the list of best tools."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It has improved the way we worked; everything is now on a very well-centered database."
"With Oracle EBS, the customer gets a better cost calculation and an integrated system between departments."
"The most valuable feature for us is integrity in the sense that the General Ledger module is directly connected with our payables, and our Human Resources is connected with payroll, so it's one unit from HR's perspective, which is very efficient."
"I have found the solution to have a good interface, security, and is user-friendly."
"The supplier invoice payment process is very easy and is integrated from the requisition to the payment (and to creating the asset)."
"The customization and integration features are also great, it's the main thing you look for in a suite."
"Oracle is the only company I can count on for support."
"It does the job, it has a lot of features, and Oracle is constantly upgrading and adding things to it, so it's a solid product, but there is always room for improvement."
 

Cons

"Projects tend to take longer because ADP wants to manage everything."
"With big companies, it takes a long time to run when it comes to the reporting part."
"The portal where employees log in to check their weekly tax statements is called ADP ESS, an area where improvements are needed."
"In my current scenario, I would not recommend EBS for anyone. It is better to purchase a cloud solution rather than having this one."
"The system has bugs, is not user friendly, and requires too much customization."
"Oracle has always had one drawback and that is that it's not as user friendly as it's competitors, whether from the database perspective or switching from SAP to Oracle."
"If you get away from the financials core of the product, it is not so good at handling peripherals."
"Right now, I don’t think the version that we are using supports mobile devices."
"It's difficult for some customers to understand in the beginning. A user really has to understand the processes."
"It would be nice to have more web services."
"Looking at the product on a large scale, some of the features are more spreadsheet-based with data updates."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe that ADP GlobalView Payroll is an expensive solution."
"If users consider the license of the solution, then it is an expensive tool."
"Products concerning areas like CRM and ERP should provide value at lesser costs to customers, especially if you consider that the initial cost of implementation is high."
"USD $100,000 annually."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is heavy subscriptions based and the solution's upgrades, under the technology licensing, are quite costly. Additionally, support is an extra cost. The price of the solution could be reduced."
"This product is more expensive if you compare it to SAP."
"The licensing cost of Oracle E-Business Suite is quite competitive. It's quite flexible, so it can be adapted to the requirements of my company. For confidentiality purposes, I'm unable to disclose how much Oracle E-Business Suite costs, but I'm rating its cost as eight out of ten."
"Oracle's pricing is lower than that of its competitors."
"Licensing and costing of Oracle EBS is very complex. We recommend to use a system integrator during the negotiation process since Oracle sales representatives sometime do not know the actual minimum requirements and may oversell the necessary licenses through ignorance."
"Compared to other vendors like SAP or Microsoft, the prices for Oracle are reasonable, but they could always be lower."
