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.

"HCM solution that's easy to set up and scale, with good data integration and technical support."
"The solution's scalability potential is very good. We have more than 1,000 users ourselves."

"The integration capabilities of Oracle HCM Cloud are valuable, particularly its support for managing global HR operations, including absence management, talent management, employee recruitment, and performance evaluations."
 

Cons

"I get very few notifications of Microsoft Viva Insights on my mobile."
"The recruitment aspect is good, but it's new and it still needs some enhancements. In the future, we hope it will be similar to Taleo."
"Customer service is bad, four out of 10. Very slow to respond to issues, requires a lot of work from the HR team just to give them all the details."
"Exposure to users on the volume or utilization of servers and memory is necessary. Currently, when users hit the threshold, the system experiences a slowdown."
"The support from Oracle HCM Cloud is great, they are responsive and helpful. However, they still could improve."
"The user interface, as well as the interfaces between modules, should definitely be enhanced."
"Once we are done working on a template, we can't change it unless we create a new one."
"The mobile capabilities need to be improved."
"Oracle HCM Cloud could improve by adding AI and more offline capabilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I am not normally involved in the product's pricing since it normally involves the packages that a user chooses. Pricing differs based on a case-to-case scenario and client-to-client basis."
"I rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten."
"The contract for one of them will be extended for three years and for another one for two years. One of them is paying monthly, and another one is paying per quarter. I don't know about the third one. So, it differs."
"Oracle HCM offers many features at a low price."
"On an annual basis, we pay about $25,000 for our company. This includes the VAT, support, upgrades and everything else."
"The data traffic cost is expensive. The solution can scale up beyond my imagination, but the cost can rise up easily."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"There is a subscription to use this solution, and there can be additional fees."
