Newcomers benefit from automation and user-friendly integration
PeopleSoft is affordable for existing customers only, not for new customers. The popularity is declining for several reasons. Resources are moving to cloud solutions such as Workday cloud. Even though it is the same Oracle environment, professionals are transitioning due to challenges in availability, scalability, and resource allocation. When there are limited hiring opportunities for a particular technology, professionals must consider switching technologies either internally within their organization or personally. If a project ends and someone is placed on bench without new opportunities, they often need to switch to technologies with more market demand. Currently, resources are frequently moving to other ERP systems such as Workday, SAP, Mulesoft, and Salesforce, as there are numerous ERP systems in the marketplace.

Reliable and loaded with features, but the UI is outdated
The entire UI/UX of the solution can be improved drastically. When I give a new employee, aged 19 and recently graduated, the solution, they are not enthused to use it on a daily basis. Ramco HCM looks outdated and is not as intuitive as it should be. I want to create an easier experience for new generations who come to work with me, with fewer scrolls, clicks, and pages to navigate. The optimization should be available with the minimum number of clicks. This is why I believe UI/UX is the most important element. I would love to see an intuitive web interface for the app, which would enable each user to easily manage and govern their data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"PeopleSoft is a very solid and robust product."
"This is a good product and I recommend it, although it depends on the use case for the business."
"The beauty of using the on-premises solution is having customizations according to business requirements, because business requirements are not always aligned with the out-of-the-box product."
"The technical support is very robust and I am satisfied with it."
"This solution integrates very well with other products which is helpful."
"The financial capabilities are great."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its stability."
"This solution integrates very well with other products which is helpful."
"The performance management system is really good."
"Once we implemented this solution, it was customizable for our needs and this has been the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"Ramco HCM is a stable system that doesn't have downtime or fluctuation issues. It can also take large volumes and scale up very fast."
"Once we implemented this solution, it was customizable for our needs and this has been the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"For anyone in the Middle East, I would strongly recommend this solution over SuccessFactors or Workday as the payroll feature is very much localized for the region and it supports all the business requirements without any additional modification."
"It is a time-saving solution, saving a lot of time for our clients by eliminating manual errors in salary calculations and removing the need for a help desk team through its chatbot that instantly handles employee queries about payslips, leave balance, and holidays."
"Ramco HCM stands out due to its reliability and up-to-date compliance with legal, statutory, and regulatory requirements."
"Ramco HCM's performance management system is really good and supports assessments, appraisals, and more."
 

Cons

"There could be more adaptability of the system."
"Data might get lost, for instance."
"The problem we have is the customization. We've gone a bit overboard with customization. That’s problematic during upgrades, which is a common problem with PeopleSoft."
"The API integration could be better."
"We've had to build all our data warehouses and datamarts in order for PeopleSoft to do the detailed reporting that we need."
"I'd like PeopleSoft to be like on the cloud and more mobile-friendly. If I try to access it from a cell phone, it's a bit difficult, so it would be great if PeopleSoft could improve these features."
"I think it needs better integration with other parties."
"If there is another release, they should look at going to mobile computing to stay competitive."
"There were so many bugs in the older releases."
"It can improve on the Comp Off and On Duty leave management process and can include real time Google Maps instead of geo-tagging to track the real location of employees."
"The product itself sometimes feels inconsistent because it comes with bugs."
"Ramco could be a bit faster and offer more use cases. A prime aim is to get analytics and this is lacking in Ramco. This lack of reporting is one of the reasons we are moving away from using Ramco."
"I would like to see the flexibility to create reports suitable to the company because the standard reports from Ramco are so conservative."
"One area for improvement in Ramco HCM is its UI, which could be more intuitive. Another area for improvement in the system is that it can be challenging to make some modular-based changes to it."
"The mobile app and web page user experience could be more user friendly."
"The mobile app for this solution could be improved as it lacks many features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The expenses related to the solution are nominal."
"The tool is expensive."
"There are no additional costs for licensing."
"Yearly payments are to be made toward the licensing costs of PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft is not very expensive, so I feel it is an affordable product."
"I don't know if they are still providing licenses or if they have suspending licenses."
"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"I would consider this to be an expensive product, but the quality justifies it."
"The solution is priced per module."
"I am not aware of the price because I was working in the implementation team, but pricing is generally based on the requirement, modules, headcount, and country."
"This solution is priced in the middle compared to other solutions on the market."
"Their customized solution is pretty expensive but much cheaper than its competitors."
