Saptak Samadder

Assistant Manager at Kashiv Biosciences

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.

The video function could be improved. Now that we do a lot of digital interviews, you can actually have your own video function. Still, I would prefer if it were more of a team function where you could change the background, for example. With everyone currently working from home offices due to lockdowns, some of the backgrounds look quite unprofessional. It would be nice if we could have our own unique background — for branding purposes during interviews. When we schedule an interview, in the message function, you can create a placeholder using a name, etc. I would like to have more generic placeholders and for them to be included in the message function when you schedule the interview.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most wonderful features is the ability to customize the modules and workflows. So far, we've done a fair bit of customization and it is helping us a lot and really adds to the value we already get from SuccessFactors."

"Once we switched to SuccessFactors and started enjoying all of its features, it's really given us an edge and things have been going great."

"SAP SuccessFactors is a stable solution."

"The self-service part is most valuable. Employees and managers can do a lot of things on their own, and they are not dependent on the HR organization."

"I hardly ever encounter any stability issues, as SAP SuccessFactors is very good and stable."

"All Learning Management Systems have their strengths and weaknesses, SAP SuccessFactors is a strong option, but organizations should choose based on their specific needs."

"The most valuable feature of SAP SuccessFactors is analytics."

"Talent Acquisition and Learning features are best in class."

More SAP SuccessFactors pros

"From my experience, there's no better system currently on the market."

"It's just an easy solution to connect with."

Cons

"LMS, Learning Management Systems, needs improvement because there were some stability problems."

"The solution needs more localization, especially for the Middle East and Russia."

"We have many interruptions and disconnection points into processes, which is why we are looking to another solution."

"Configuration transportation functionality is not available in SuccessFactor."

"Overall, the documentation could be improved, and I think the learning management module needs to include more capabilities when it comes to matching an organization's particular learning approach."

"The data management part can be improved in terms of how you can manage data from the HR admin's or HR team's perspective. It has some limitations in the reporting part in terms of how you can update the data and fetch the data. SAP HCM comparatively has a lot of capabilities in terms of backup loads, data management, data changes, etc. You can do these things easily, which is not the case with SAP SuccessFactors. Data management should be simplified in SAP SuccessFactors in terms of accessing the data, reporting, and then manipulating the data."

"The Onboarding module must be improved."

"We were not happy with their after-sales support. Whenever we had an issue it was really difficult to get in touch with them."

More SAP SuccessFactors cons

"The video function could be improved. It would be nice if we could have our own unique background — for branding purposes during interviews."

"The video function could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution depends on too many factors to provide an estimate. However, the price of SAP SuccessFactors is competitive."

"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."

"The pricing for SuccessFactors is ridiculously high, and there are costs in addition to the license fee for some features."

"It is not cheap, but it is reasonable."

"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."

"If you go by best practices and do it right from the outset, the setup won't be a costly endeavor. In terms of setup, there is a lot of flexibility compared to three years ago."

"I don't want to comment on the license cost, to be honest. It could be about $1,000 approximately per customer. However, it's very flexible in terms of the licensing costs depending on the volume and depending on the deal of installation."

"We are on an annual subscription to use SAP SuccessFactors. The pricing model is something that they could restructure a bit better. If it was based differently on the type of usage it would help."

More SAP SuccessFactors pricing and cost advice

"We pay a fixed amount that includes support. I think it's a very good deal actually."
