Optimize talent management with modular features but needs better reporting
There are difficulties regarding the reporting part. While we have some reporting functionalities, they are not powerful or deep. For instance, the coverage report on a specific effective date provides data effective on the day of the report, which is a significant limitation. Additionally, the available APIs, both inbound and outbound, are not well-developed, preventing the creation of accurate interfaces with other systems. There is also a need to review the reporting infrastructure to build a data lake that would allow customers to access data regardless of the effective date of the information. Moreover, the silos between the different modules need to be removed. Ideally, one would want a report that provides information at the same time from performance and compensation.

Provides unified access to multiple HR functions and reduces navigation effort
I am generally satisfied with the talent management capabilities in Oracle HCM Cloud, but as I mentioned, there are certain pages that really lag sometimes and there are a lot of bugs in talent management. Before, when it had a responsive UI, it was fine, but after it switched to Redwood, I feel there are bugs, and the functionality stated in the documents is not accurate. It takes some time to get that feature, and we need to raise product SR or ask in the community how it works. It's not easily understandable, especially in the talent management area. One potential area of improvement for Oracle HCM Cloud is that it lags. It takes time to reflect the pages, and the loading time now requires us to wait for the page to load. Earlier, we used to click and see the page immediately. However, now we need to wait for it to get loaded, which can be frustrating when working in a fast mode.

Pros

"It helps to optimize some workflows and provides reporting capabilities."
"The solution has a great payroll engine."
"Performance appraisal might be the most valuable feature for us."
"This solution would be good and more cost-effective than an SAP if you are only looking for HR functionality."
"The tool provides a lot of options."
"Recently, support has been excellent."
"Stability of this solution is very good, it's a good product."
"The most valuable feature is you can customize every type of payroll calculation that you have."
"Oracle HCM Cloud adds the latest features on a quarterly basis to the cloud, which makes it very easy for customers to adapt to the new features."
"They give a good package compared to other companies, which was beneficial for our organization."
"The solution is very good at building out a roadmap based on client needs and feedback."
"Oracle HCM Cloud's workforce analytics has helped me in refining my business strategies."
"The most important function is definitely managing the employee and employer staff system. This module allows the company to see information about its own employees. It's crucial for our organization, along with talent management."
"Oracle HCM Cloud is scalable, and Oracle is spending a lot of effort in research and development to increase scalability and speed with the high demand for mobile usage, with approximately 30,000 users using this solution in my organization."
"The valuable features of Oracle HCM Cloud are the frequent updates, if there are any discrepancies, we consult with our record directly and they come up with the solution for the betterment of the cloud."
"Oracle HCM Cloud is a stable solution."
 

Cons

"In future releases, it would be useful to see reporting lines of all the team members in our business to understand who reports to whom."
"I rate the support from Meta4 a two out of five."
"For companies in the Gulf area, I would not recommend this solution."
"The Solution is stable, yet when the data became huge, the Payroll Users are facing slow execution of the Payroll."
"The first response usually lacks depth, and if it were just an HR user submitting tickets, the outcome might be poor."
"Their technical support is not so good."
"The solution is a little bit slow."
"Meta4 could improve by allowing users to manage things by themself."
"I rate this solution a three out of ten."
"Cloud learning can be improved."
"The tool should allow more customization for specific requirements. Some processes could be streamlined, and certain features in specific modules must be added."
"The user interface is not conducive to high volume data entry."
"Oracle's technical support is generally satisfactory yet lacks flexibility and rapid response times."
"The features available in EBS should be available on the cloud as well. When these features are not available on the cloud, it's hard to convince customers to migrate."
"Legal local legislation integration could improve."
"I would focus on making high volume recruitment more bulky."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"From a cost perspective, I think this is a well-balanced option."
"Meta4 requires annual maintenance that needs to be paid for."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"The product could be more affordable."
"I cannot comment on the cost, as this is handled by a different team."
"The solution is quite expensive for small and medium-sized companies."
"Oracle HCM Cloud is pricey, but price-wise, it's now more competitive than in the past year. Here in Central Europe, people also look at the pricing, but Central Europe falls under the UAE and Abu Dhabi in terms of headquarters, management, and strategy, but those states don't care too much about the pricing. Pricing is a significant factor in choosing a solution. In the past, Oracle HCM Cloud was compared to the SAP solution, the largest competitor and up to thirty percent higher in price. Now, Oracle HCM Cloud has a price increase of five to ten percent, which could be pricier than SAP now, but it's a more competitive product nowadays and comparable to SAP."
"It is definitely super expensive. Oracle is very, very expensive for what they offer."
"There is a subscription to use this solution, and there can be additional fees."
"There is a license required for the use of this solution and we are on an annual license."
