NetSuite OneWorld provides swift ROI, enhances efficiency, and is ideal for pre-IPO businesses with multiple subsidiaries.
Sentiment score
6.1
PeopleSoft offers cost-efficient ROI, maintained with minimal resources, outperforming costlier systems like Oracle and SAP in user satisfaction.

PeopleSoft's customer service is satisfactory, but users desire quicker, more detailed support, especially for complex issues and upgrades.

Sentiment score
7.6
PeopleSoft is scalable and adaptable, excelling in performance and integration, though complex applications may pose challenges.
It allows you to scale across various modules and functionalities without losing access to essential features, even if they are not used immediately.
This rating reflects the limitation that custom applications do not receive support.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.3
NetSuite OneWorld is stable with rare IT issues, quick vendor responses, regular upgrades, and minimal customization impact.

PeopleSoft is valued for its stability, consistent performance, customization, and quick resolution of rare bugs, despite minor issues.

Room For Improvement

NetSuite OneWorld needs improvements in usability, inventory analytics, production planning, and performance to address user frustration and inefficiencies.
PeopleSoft needs improvements in mobile UI, technical support, integration capabilities, and customization complexity, while enhancing performance and design.
The performance could be improved as this is a 100% software as a service platform.
Professionals are transitioning due to challenges in availability, scalability, and resource allocation.
 

Setup Cost

NetSuite OneWorld offers higher initial costs but long-term value; pricing varies widely, with discounts often available in certain regions.
PeopleSoft's pricing is high and variable, with significant costs for licensing, setup, customization, and ongoing support.
In Latin America, discounts can be as high as seventy percent.
 

Valuable Features

NetSuite OneWorld integrates business intelligence and customization, streamlines operations, supports multicurrency and inventory management, reducing costs and enhancing efficiency.
PeopleSoft excels in customization, integration, and scalability, offering user-friendly features for HR, finance, payroll, and comprehensive analytics.
The multicurrency reevaluation offered by OneWorld enables consolidation from different branches, such as country or continent levels, making it a powerful feature.
It aids me from an auditing perspective, as it's all system-driven, and cannot be altered.
It provides the easiest way to integrate with third-party applications for data exchange between systems.

Antonio Lira - PeerSpot reviewer
Seamless subsidiary operation visibility with efficient accounting consolidation
One of the most valuable features that I appreciate is the ability to consolidate operations across subsidiaries, which makes accounting consolidation great. The multicurrency reevaluation offered by OneWorld enables consolidation from different branches, such as country or continent levels, making it a powerful feature. Additionally, there is visibility into all operations within the subsidiaries, facilitating awareness of sales, purchases, and manufacturing activities.
IanCampbell - PeerSpot reviewer
Saves time through transclusion - using a single record across multiple modules
The most valuable feature is the module integration, which saves time through transclusion - using a single record across multiple modules. The user interface has improved significantly. The current client redesigns work centers per subsidiary business unit, making navigation more intuitive and easier for end users. Reporting and analytics capabilities have greatly improved.
