SAP HCM Reviews

The product is flexible and has periodic updates. It is supports several different functional areas in the company, such as financial, controlling, logistics, and human resources.

In my work, it enables me to work remotely because I can connect to our customer’s site using a VPN.

The payroll area for managing employee salaries has room for improvement;

Payroll area for managing employee salary, regarding SAP HCM system, is an area with complex issues because Italian tax and labor legislation and regulations are often changed; so several implementations of this module need custom integration from a consultant.

It would be better if SAP HCM could manage several topics, like absence protected like sickness, maternity.

In the last years, several implementations/developments on the SAP HCM system were done concerning several topics, but above all, integration with other module sof SAP HCM, like Time Management, for example.

I have been working with SAP Human Capital Management since I started my work in 1998, so for about 18 years.

I did have some issues with stability, especially at the beginning. I had several issues regarding the Time Management and Payroll modules.

I did not have any problems with scalability.

The level of technical support was good. They were always quick to solve problems with a high level of impact on our customers.

In the beginning, it was very difficult to set up because we lacked the support and experience to implement the product. After that, we arranged for support to work out a more correct and easier process.

It is very expensive for a small company. Only large companies can afford it.

I have never used a different solution. I have always worked with SAP Human Capital Management.

I suggest working with a partner company who is already using SAP Human Capital Management to help you implement it at your own company.

In Italy, the implementation is difficult because the Italian tax and labor legislation and regulations are often changed; so several implementations of this module are required. This can be changes in absence quotas and protections for sickness, maternity leave, and so on. This really requires custom integration with the help of a consultant.

Integration with FI and MM are the best features. The localization packages and, of late, the Rapid Deployment Solutions have proved to be immensely time saving and thus have made SAP implementations monetarily viable for the SME sector. The cloud-based package extension for SAP HCM, which is named SucessFactors, has added a new dimension to the ERP functions. Features such as SAP JAM and Apps have made SAP ERP HCM social media- and mobile-friendly.

In the process of implementing SAP HCM, the ASAP roadmaps guide the client to streamline the various processes associated with HR. As a result, every area within the scope of HR comes under the scanner. Hence, from the hierarchical framework to grouping employees as per shifts or paydays and pay frequencies, everything gets streamlined.

Processing large volumes of data during processes such as payroll is time consuming, which could be an area to work on.

I have been working with the SAP HCM module for over nine years.

I have not encountered any stability issues so far.

I have not encountered any scalability issues so far.

The support that we have been getting has been great.

I did not previously use a different solution; I have always been associated with SAP.

I work on a contract basis as an SAP Consultant, and clients contact me only after SAP has been chosen.

Select the solutions carefully. SAP has a lot to offer, but which solutions are required for your company and what is financial viable for your company can be a tricky decision to make. So, first have insight into what every solution and module has to offer. Finally, every step of ASAP should be followed religiously. I have seen companies losing their focus while implementing, just because the TO BE Document should have been more comprehensive.

SAP gives the best automation solution, which not only reduces paperwork but also with minimal manpower we can obtain maximum results. Senior management can view the current status of the organization, financial status, stock condition, sales status, etc. from one place, and can even check these things from their smart phones from anywhere in the world. This helps management take result-oriented decisions that will result in higher expected revenue, which in turn provides the best ROI from this application.

It provides a transparent look for the entire organization and with zero issues in payroll and finance posting. Also the reporting that SAP provides helps any organization see the required information.

The Core Talent Modules should have been improved, but SAP has introduced SuccessFactors, which has the best solution for Talent Management. I think SAP has covered the earlier gaps in the latest version, but it’s still too early to say.

I have been using this solution for the past 11 years.

I have never encountered any stability issues.

Technical support is 8/10.

I have always worked with only SAP from the beginning.

Initial setup was straightforward.

SAP comes up with its own price, hence licensing will be at its mark.

Before choosing this product, I did not evaluate other options.

If your company needs a stable solution, go for SAP.
