Supports recruitment workflows effectively but requires better AI search and mobile capabilities

Oracle Taleo lacks AI right now when everyone is transitioning into AI. It is very limited with a single word search. A chatbot could be added to Oracle Taleo as most of the current existing tools have. Career site redirection could be more advanced with the user interface.AI-assisted search can help in the sourcing platform, which would be an added advantage compared to Oracle Taleo. The filters are good, but when trying to use a Boolean search or customize search options, it only takes a limited selection of keywords. AI could help in more advanced search capability, which might be a drawback for Oracle Taleo. Additionally, creating campaigns and bulk messaging is lacking.Regarding the mobile-friendly candidate experience, there are better options from other tools. You are limited to the approval part. Difficulties arise when wanting access to applications or dashboards connected to Oracle Taleo or viewing the transition on mobile.When it comes to stability and performance, there are prior communications about downtimes on Saturdays, but there are some issues during weekdays which are faced occasionally. The scalability aspect is not quite scalable.

Has all-inclusive pricing and good talent acquisition and onboarding components, and is an excellent product for mid-sized to large organizations

They could probably add surveying, as in engagement surveys, to their product. That would be something that would be valued by their customers. For instance, Culture Amp is a product that does a lot of the engagement stuff. They're diversifying into other aspects of talent management. It is not yet at the same scale as PageUp People, but it is an excellent product as well.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution offers good benefits for administrators."

"It is easy to use. Requisition management and pre-screening are the two most valuable features."

"The stability of the solution is good."

"I think we have faster on-boarding time, it is mobile and you can use it anywhere, and it's also more cost effective because it doesn't take as many people to do it."

"Performance and goal management are good to have, based on certain client requirements where the user base isn't too large, but the most workable domain of Taleo is the recruiting module."

"The product remains stable, and Oracle is investing further to improve and enhance it."

"It is a really competitive solution in terms of technical features and user experience."

"The stability of the solution is good."

More Oracle Taleo pros

"This product is user-friendly and great for reporting purposes."

"The talent acquisition and the onboarding components of the system are most valuable."

"I have recommended PageUp to a lot of my networks due to the fact that it is one of the best systems on the market in terms of functionality, support, and reporting capability."

"Most of features in PageUp are very useful."

"It has a user-friendly interface in managing job requisitions for the end user."

"PageUp has allowed us to integrate all HR systems and manage all processes associated with the employee lifecycle from recruitment through to managing performance, learning and development; also where applicable, departures from the organisation processes."

"It provides a centralised repository of information for various HR functions."

"Once automated through the system, the approval timeframe decreased to two days."

More PageUp People pros

Cons

"I don't see very valuable features in this product because it has an old way of interpreting ATS. It should be more flexible in managing datasets and data searches. The screening data is a long process in Taleo."

"With Taleo, I experience two limitations. First, it only supports soft calls with a daily limit, which is a concern. The other limitation is that it feels outdated, and I cannot compare certain things or implement some automations that require a lot of manual intervention when initiating, generating, and calculating offers."

"Customer support. It is very cold, you put a ticket in and you might get a response back an hour or two later."

"The bulk recruitment feature does not work well."

"Oracle Taleo felt a bit outdated, and we didn't use it for every step of the candidate process. We mainly used it to track job IDs, create job requisitions, and add candidates when making an offer. It wasn't very user-friendly for moving candidates through different stages of the recruitment lifecycle."

"It would be beneficial if Oracle Taleo included AI-based CV screening, rather than just keyword matches."

"Lacks some systems that we need."

"Also, the users didn’t like Learn. It was not as user friendly and simple (step-wise) as our legacy system. We didn’t anticipate how much they would hate Learn."

More Oracle Taleo cons

"Initially, we experienced issues with the stability of the learning management module as we migrated 50,000+ existing training records from our old system."

"Maybe there is a need to improve the interface so that we will be able to easily search for modules in regards to the system fix."

"In the Boolean search functions, I would like to be able to search CVs in regards to the skills using the AND/OR functions as well as keywords."

"There are sometimes problems when loading the system; it can be very slow."

"The automated removal of historical data would be great if the user could remove it on an ad-hoc basis when required."

"The ability to pull reports was limited for us."

"They could probably add surveying, as in engagement surveys, to their product. That would be something that would be valued by their customers. For instance, Culture Amp is a product that does a lot of the engagement stuff. They're diversifying into other aspects of talent management. It is not yet at the same scale as PageUp People, but it is an excellent product as well."

"The on-boarding process, with specific relation to the provisioning process, isn’t set up as well as other competitors, such as RedCarpet (SilkRoad)."

More PageUp People cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Whether you pay annually or on some other payment schedule depends on the license model you choose. Typically, clients pay a yearly subscription."

"Oracle Taleo is an expensive solution."

"PageUp has a different model from other organizations. As part of their pricing structure, they tend to work with you very closely and not charge you for the setup. So, there is one price all inclusive of setup, and for that reason, they become an attractive provider to work with. Here in Australia, the education sector has gravitated very heavily towards PageUp."
