Featured Reviews

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.
Vibha  Mishra - PeerSpot reviewer
Provide performance management and HR operations but lacks AI capabilities
Using PeopleStrong, uploading modules, and downloading reports was very easy. The process was hassle-free and user-friendly. We use PeopleStrong for performance management and HR operations, such as storing data and handling documentation when a new person joins the company. For learning and…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"All the features of the solution are integral to the functionality. Additionally, the navigation customization is beneficial."
"I would recommend the solution. It's very stable and scalable, which makes it a reliable solution."
"Very stable in terms of performance and scalability."
"I use the reporting feature occasionally to check for potential improvements in timesheets. We have integrated it with Power BI."
"The recruiting is most valuable. It saves time in having easy and fast applicants tracking as well as candidates' contact plus pipeline management."
"PeopleSoft is mostly used for payroll and core HR functionality. Some customers use it for its finance module."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is having the sources so that you're able to adapt the product to your needs. That was a big benefit."
"The most valuable feature of PeopleSoft is the functionality that allows the ability to find all the data about employees that are needed."
"It has the capability of reporting. We, as a business team, found it good. In fact, we migrated to PeopleStrong essentially because of its reporting feature."
"The UI and UX are fantastic."
"The hiring process is good. It will create a process-oriented procedure in terms of hiring, promotion, the movement of people, and other related HR tasks."
"The mobile responsiveness is strong."
"It is priced low."
"Some of the most valuable features are the onboarding experience of new employees, the employee service portal, and the entire performance management system."
"The product has valuable flexibility for customization, user interface, and search capabilities."
"PeopleStrong Alt is flexible because it allows customization and the user's experience is very good."
 

Cons

"I would like to see better support, bug fixing, and documentation."
"The solution needs to work on its mobile technology. We're hoping in the next version we're working on implementing, 9.2, will have more of this."
"The support is medium quality through the Oracle support portal. It's neither exceptionally good nor particularly bad."
"Services that need improvement include PeopleSoft Query, Pivot Grids, and PeopleSoft Test Framework."
"On the other hand, the more recent push for standardization precludes customized approaches to certain industry requirements."
"We have already deployed it and we have had it for several years but we are switching to a modern HCM SaaS cloud product."
"Often support just asks people to install a lot of upgrades. Sometimes they don't really give you clear details as to why you need to upgrade. They just say, "You need to upgrade this because there's a newer image, etc". They never really give you the reason underlying why you are having errors."
"The learning and development side of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Sometimes, we feel that we should have an API-based integration aspect."
"They could improve talent management capabilities."
"The global scalability and support could improve."
"They had challenges getting the performance management system up and integrated with our systems."
"They could include a sort of collaborative platform where employees are able to work together with a chat mechanism like WhatsApp and video chat."
"It would be helpful if you could work offline because sometimes, we have problems with internet connectivity."
"The solution's workflow can improve by adding more customization at the organizational level."
"PeopleStrong could make it AI-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The main issue we have with the solution is that it is very expensive."
