Human Resources Intern at a government with 10,001+ employees
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We haven't had a single issue with stability, and we've been using it for more than three years."
"I rate Oracle HCM Cloud nine out of ten."
"The initial setup or implementation process of the solution is fine. The deployment process took place in two days. So, once one has the runbook and everything in place, it is not that difficult."
"Our overall evaluation of Oracle HCM Cloud as a general ledger tool is mixed. It is a comprehensive and versatile piece of software."
"It has good navigation, and it is user friendly and secure. Every three months, there is an upgrade, and it has new features."
"HCM Cloud's most valuable feature is its ease of use - it's interlinked, so you can drill down into information."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle HCM Cloud is the dashboards, customization, and configuration."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the core HR, absence, payroll, and recruitment modules."
"Simple to use Easy setup Cloud-based Easy foundation setup (companies, locations, employee data, etc.) Employees can log in from any internet browser No local installation and support is required."
"The ability to have a whole system with SilkRoad works well, as we can manage most of the functions of an HR department."
"Technical support is excellent."
 

Cons

"In some geographies, you might not find specific localizations. For example, here in Turkey, we can use all Oracle Cloud modules except for payroll. The Oracle payroll module isn't localized for the Turkish system. So, we need to integrate a separate, localized payroll solution with Oracle HCM."
"With HCM Cloud, I have only created two or three SRs, and so far, not bad, but I wouldn't go to phenomenal yet."
"In some cases, the price may be lower depending on what is negotiated."
"There are some modules and suits that are more stable than others. But when it comes to supply chain and financial clients, it's still something written with bugs."
"Integration. We still have Oracle E-Business Suite in other business areas, so integration of HCM Cloud into it would be an improvement."
"The mobile capabilities need to 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 customization of the solution presents many challenges."
"I think the ATS should be able to auto-generate a decline letter when you move thru dispositions or when you close a requisition."
"The setup was straightforward while working with the implementation team. However, it was time consuming."
"The product is designed for smaller companies, so scalability is an issue."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is largely determined by what is agreed upon."
"On average, it's not a cheap solution."
"The solution is expensive."
"I rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten."
"I haven't personally dealt with the cost details, but based on client feedback, Oracle HCM Cloud is considered expensive due to additional support costs on top of licensing fees."
"The is a license needed to use the solution. The license can be paid in different increments, such as quarterly."
"According to the Turkish market, the pricing is a little bit expensive."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
