Decades of use have delivered secure, customizable control for public sector operations and finance
I have just completed three assessments: one on inventory demand planning, another on using artificial intelligence to bring supplier contracts in portable document format directly into PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft works both internally as well as with third-party products that integrate seamlessly with PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft operates both from a need-to-know-only basis as well as being able at the same time to do group purchase and realize large quantity purchase discounts. My clients have used marketplaces, and it is really industry-specific whether they use one or not, or if there is even one available. I would rate this product nine out of ten.

Can accomplish more with this tool than with a website or shared drive, yet reporting is weak
A large percentage of our employee base is remote at client locations. A web-based VMS allows anyone to access our catalog, and to work on their professional development, 24/7, regardless of location. I am a single system admin for over 600 users. I can accomplish much more with this tool than with a website or shared drive that doesn't have reporting, assignment, and other capabilities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It provides a very stable platform for us to support key applications, including Procure to Pay, HR/Payroll, AP/AR, Fixed Asset, and Financial Reporting."
"The financial capabilities are great."
"Scales up very well."
"The technical support is very robust and I am satisfied with it."
"PeopleSoft automatically generates code, making it easier to integrate with third-party or internal systems."
"The integration between Human Capital Management (HCM) and PeopleSoft is an important feature."
"A solid and mature product."
"For example, any time you need to search information for any employee, you do not need to navigate through different screens and menus."
"SilkRoad support has been very responsible and helpful."
 

Cons

"The BI component of PeopleSoft is lacking."
"The product was too complicated when it came to navigating through multiple places and the search filters weren't great."
"I would like for the initial rollout process to be completed faster so that it can be implemented in a more efficient manner."
"Response time takes very long and requires a person to be awake night and day to benefit from it."
"We needed to do a lot of integration with third-party applications in order to get the functionality that we needed. The API integration could be better."
"The product is not intuitive, and finding the right candidate can be arduous."
"It needs a better interface on the financial side because there have been more improvements to the RMS interface than the financial one."
"This solution could be improved by lowering the cost of support."
"The ability to view and report on, then manage data is not very robust."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"PeopleSoft has a yearly maintenance fee."
"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."
"The expenses related to the solution are nominal."
"It's approximately $3,000,000 to $4,000,000 USD per year."
"There are no additional costs for licensing."

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for PeopleSoft?
The pricing is customer-specific, so I am not generally privy to what the pricing for licensing is. However, generally, I think PeopleSoft is certainly cheaper than cloud solutions.
What needs improvement with PeopleSoft?
More delivered artificial intelligence functionality in operations and finance would be helpful.
