Good work-related personality survey, but it needs to be updated
When it comes to understanding personality, the models are not dynamic enough. They use old, obsolete or outdated terminology. In general, they need to be updated. They need to include more dimensions for analyzing personality. They do not have an option for Saudi norms, or Arab norms, so we utilize the US norms. The problem is that these are not right for people working in the Middle East because the market is different and the culture is different. The US norms do not, for example, take into account the problems associated with regions that are underdeveloped culturally. I would add a dimension that deals with how the person perceives the culture of their society or the culture of their organization. It would help to determine how honest they are in their understanding, as opposed to pretending or being a hypocrite. It is important to do this in a sophisticated way so that they people do not figure out the reasons underlying those items, otherwise, they may get defensive and only answer the questions in the same way that they would answer their employer. Another dimension they should add deals with personal lifestyle. I work in the area of human health, both physical and mental, and it is very important to understand the employee's lifestyle. It is something where people often do not tell the truth unless you know them pretty well. For example, sometimes people deny that they are smoking or drinking, yet the reality is that they have these habits. People who are overweight sometimes deny the fact. Psychological problems are the same. OutMatch is not competitive in the Middle East.

HR has gained clear analytics for attrition, goals, and appraisals and manages talent efficiently
SAP SuccessFactors has a low error rate. We had many ad hoc reports that we needed to generate, and it was very easy to do so in SAP SuccessFactors. We also created many in-house reports according to our specific requirements with the help of this tool, which was a really big game changer for us. We did not depend on advanced Excel in those cases. We generated a lot of detailed reports whenever we needed them during emergency cases or board meetings. A lot of usefulness and time were saved in those cases. I will also mention that we conducted a comparative study for some recruitment cases. We had a recruitment model where we were looking for a very niche profile. Since the job profile was really different and rare, we had to depend on analytics to understand and shortlist from a large pool of candidates that we already had in our database. Analytics was really helpful in this situation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is that they have several competency models."
"OutMatch is a very good tool, and I think it's among the best in this field, but it needs updating and it needs more development."
"It has a global database, and it is globally accessible with the integration with the management."
"SAP SuccessFactors has positively impacted our organization as attrition has decreased, employee satisfaction in terms of help desk processes has improved, and the data transition from Excel, PowerPoint, or Tableau has become much more real-time."
"Easy to use and user-friendly."
"It was much easier than the previous system, making things a lot easier and operations much smoother."
"The standardized procedures and best practices embedded in the system are very valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the onboarding module, which enables candidates to fill in their details online and smoothly transitions data from the recruitment module into the SAP database."
"SAP SuccessFactors manages the journey of an employee from start to finish, and everything is managed within a single suite."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its integration capabilities with on-premise ERPs and other systems."
 

Cons

"When it comes to understanding personality, the models are not dynamic enough. They use old, obsolete or outdated terminology. In general, they need to be updated."
"Visual representations, in the form of graphs and charts, can be added. This is beneficial for both management and employees. Upon accessing the system, they should generate graphical representations on their dashboard. These visuals illustrate aspects such as company-wide training progress and current company training status. The information encompasses both company-related data and personal profiles. This approach makes it convenient to grasp the company's profile along with individual information."
"SuccessFactors was down completely for one day. All the companies which were using the Amsterdam datacenter were down from 8:00 in the morning to 18:00 in the evening."
"I think there is room for improvement in user friendliness. In my experience, users are sometimes confused about how to use the solution."
"What needs to be improved in this product is the user experience."
"The pricing is a bit high for smaller to mid-sized companies."
"One area for improvement is making SuccessFactors more compatible with other countries, especially in terms of payroll and other functionalities."
"For SAP, the product is pricey, both CAPEX and the OPEX."
"SuccessFactors could be improved by making it usable on mobile and making its features less rigid."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price of the solution depends on too many factors to provide an estimate. However, the price of SAP SuccessFactors is competitive."
"Due to the way in which we purchased SuccessFactors as a module along with other SAP modules, we were able to procure it at a slightly better price than usual. I would rate their pricing 5/5 stars."
"I think the pricing is a little better than most solutions out there. There are reasonable prices when it comes to some of the modules such as the Payroll module, and for the remaining modules I believe the pricing is fair in comparison to the rest of the market."
"Our costs for the solution are subsidized by our parent company, I am not aware of the exact cost because of this. However, we pay $50,000 annually. If we move to another solution it will be more expensive."
"We don't utilize even half of the licenses because not everyone uses them. With SAP SuccessFactors, though, we're now conducting all our performance evaluations within the system, so I suppose we're making better use of those licenses. As for SAP for employee services and internal benefits processing, we do have licenses for those but don't utilize them."
"SAP SuccessFactors requires an annual subscription."
"For SAP, the product is pricey, both CAPEX and the OPEX. It's something that could be improved."
"So now, SAP charges me 300 Euros for 14,000 employees. I still have to pay 2,000 euros because I'm using SAP on-prem."
