Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Microsoft Viva Insights is integrated with Outlook and SharePoint. It helps me to reply and attend all scheduled meetings."
"Oracle HCM has a great reporting platform, OTPI, with drag-and-drop functionality. I can design my own reports without relying on the technical team. This empowers HR users to create reports based on their needs, which is a huge advantage."
"The most valuable feature is the support for mobile devices."
"The most valuable features in Oracle HCM Cloud are the employee and manager self-services."
"The newer Redwood team is more client-focused and this is very valuable."
"The solution has new features like AI-embedded solutions that are very useful for helping customers gain a lot of new insights."
"I would recommend Oracle HCM Cloud to others."
"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's most valuable feature is that it is user-friendly."
 

Cons

"I get very few notifications of Microsoft Viva Insights on my mobile."
"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."
"The solution could improve by having better integration between on-premise and the cloud. It can be difficult and time-consuming to migrate our applications and interfaces."
"I rate the technical support of Oracle HCM Cloud an eight out of ten. There is some room for improvement."
"Cloud learning can be improved."
"I think they should have a larger data center in China, which would significantly increase the access speed from my current workspace."
"The product is comparably complex to install and deploy properly."
"Oracle's technical support is generally satisfactory yet lacks flexibility and rapid response times."
"The absence management can use some improvement. Due to all the flexible working, the part with work schedules could be a little bit more flexible."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The is a license needed to use the solution. The license can be paid in different increments, such as quarterly."
"The solution is expensive."
"Oracle HCM offers many features at a low price."
"There is a subscription to use this solution, and there can be additional fees."
"The solution is quite expensive for small and medium-sized companies."
"I cannot comment on the cost, as this is handled by a different team."
"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."
