Capable of consolidating data from all countries and providing access to any employee information across locations but poor user experience

Oracle HCM Cloud definitely has a lot to improve from a user experience perspective. The platform is huge and feature-rich, but is it truly appealing to an end user? Is it a two-click solution? Does it match current market trends in user experience? No, it has a lot of catching up to do. For example, is the screen catchy for an employee to see their details or access essential information? No. The user experience is zero. An employee needs training to apply for leave, something as simple as that. They shouldn't need training materials or user guides to navigate the system. We're moving towards empowering users, especially with end-user-facing systems. People should be self-reliant and not need to rely on manuals. Oracle HCM Cloud is very old-school in this regard. It's still stuck in the "PeopleSoft" mentality instead of focusing on a user-friendly experience for employees and managers. So, the user experience needs a major overhaul. So, to summarize, it needs to be more user-friendly and present key information on the login screen. In future releases, I would like to see employee dashboards. Oracle HCM should come up with ready-made employee dashboards, like very simple ones. Right now, an employee dashboard or a manager dashboard, but these should be readily available. You shouldn't expect a customer to go and design something they need. There are a few basic things any employee or manager in any company would want to see. One of the best things would be a very simple org chart. Now, the org chart is quite poor on Oracle. There are applications that focus only on org charts and look really good, giving a lot of details about a team and its employees. But Oracle's org chart is bad, so to be specific, they should improve it a lot.

Assistant Vice President at a recruiting/HR firm with 11-50 employees

Plenty of modules, useful bulk transfers, and scales well

I used SAP SuccessFactors prior to ZingHR. The main difference between ZingHR and SAP SuccessFactors is SAP SuccessFactors has a huge, dynamic UI. Admins have more control over fields, access, and permissions. Additionally, if the administrators are experienced they can make more customization within the system themselves. They do not need to approach the company or consultant. However, ask for the company to make necessary field corrections, or make certain changes for us. SAP SuccessFactors is not a perfect solution either, it has room for improvement. They are missing payroll as part of the core modules, you have to purchase it separately which can add to more costs. I prefer SAP SuccessFactors because it is good overall, dynamic, and it is evolving every quarter, every six months.

Pros

"The product's most valuable feature is the centralization of data."

"The most valuable features of the solution are the core HR, absence, payroll, and recruitment modules."

"The most valuable feature of Oracle HCM Cloud is the dashboards, customization, and configuration."

"The most valuable feature is fast reporting."

"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 essential for security needs and especially for payroll. The payroll feature is very good."

"I like the interfaces, and they are fine. I would like to see more interfaces."

"In terms of ERP, it's a good product. It's convenient."

More Oracle HCM Cloud pros

"The solution is a cloud HRMS, which makes it a self-sufficient model. You can do a lot of things without taking anybody's help."

"The most valuable feature of ZingHR is the data bulk uploading and downloading."

Cons

"I think they should have a larger data center in China, which would significantly increase the access speed from my current workspace."

"There needs to be familiarity mixed in with novelty."

"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."

"The solution has much room for improvement in all the modules."

"There should be more digital assistance included, like chatbots."

"The user interface, as well as the interfaces between modules, should definitely be enhanced."

"Lacks relevancy for the current generation."

"An employee needs training to apply for leave, something as simple as that. They shouldn't need training materials or user guides to navigate the system. We're moving towards empowering users, especially with end-user-facing systems. People should be self-reliant and not need to rely on manuals. Oracle HCM Cloud is very old-school in this regard."

More Oracle HCM Cloud cons

"ZingHR is not flexible and needs to improve offline support."

"ZingHR could improve by giving administration users from the front end the ability to make corrections. I am having to do the bulk corrections from an Excel upload from the system."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of Oracle HCM Cloud is high, it could be reduced. There is an annual subscription and it is user-based."

"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."

"According to the Turkish market, the pricing is a little bit expensive."

"The pricing is reasonable."

"On an annual basis, we pay about $25,000 for our company. This includes the VAT, support, upgrades and everything else."

"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."

"It is definitely super expensive. Oracle is very, very expensive for what they offer."

"The price of Oracle HCM Cloud could improve. However, everyone would like the price of a solution they are using to be less expensive."

More Oracle HCM Cloud pricing and cost advice

"ZingHR is a less expensive solution than others, such as SAP SuccessFactors."

"ZingHR is not expensive."
