Optimize talent management with modular features but needs better reporting
There are difficulties regarding the reporting part. While we have some reporting functionalities, they are not powerful or deep. For instance, the coverage report on a specific effective date provides data effective on the day of the report, which is a significant limitation. Additionally, the available APIs, both inbound and outbound, are not well-developed, preventing the creation of accurate interfaces with other systems. There is also a need to review the reporting infrastructure to build a data lake that would allow customers to access data regardless of the effective date of the information. Moreover, the silos between the different modules need to be removed. Ideally, one would want a report that provides information at the same time from performance and compensation.

Provides unified access to multiple HR functions and reduces navigation effort
I am generally satisfied with the talent management capabilities in Oracle HCM Cloud, but as I mentioned, there are certain pages that really lag sometimes and there are a lot of bugs in talent management. Before, when it had a responsive UI, it was fine, but after it switched to Redwood, I feel there are bugs, and the functionality stated in the documents is not accurate. It takes some time to get that feature, and we need to raise product SR or ask in the community how it works. It's not easily understandable, especially in the talent management area. One potential area of improvement for Oracle HCM Cloud is that it lags. It takes time to reflect the pages, and the loading time now requires us to wait for the page to load. Earlier, we used to click and see the page immediately. However, now we need to wait for it to get loaded, which can be frustrating when working in a fast mode.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Stability of this solution is very good, it's a good product."
"The performance appraisal is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is very helpful as it allows us to optimize and consolidate all the data for talent management."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the payment engine."
"It is the most complete and customizable solution on the market."
"The support team were friendly and work in a systematic way. When contacting support you are able to add a level of priority to your case which is always respected by their team."
"Performance appraisal might be the most valuable feature for us."
"The tool provides a lot of options."
"This is a very comprehensive solution, covering every aspect of the HCM profit cycle and the life cycle."
"HCM Cloud's most valuable feature is its ease of use - it's interlinked, so you can drill down into information."
"HCM solution that's easy to set up and scale, with good data integration and technical support."
"Business intelligence is integrated with the product and gives real-time information about employees and processes for managers, who can have their analysis delivered in any way (dashboards, table reports, analysis, charts, etc.) with no development cost."
"It is very user-friendly. Most of the UI is very intuitive so you don't need to follow a course to follow it up."
"Oracle HCM Cloud is highly scalable."
"Their technical support is okay; I don't have any problems with the Oracle support part, and they are of great help."
"With the product being in the cloud, that means that the users don't have to worry about having servers on premises, they don't have to worry about all the infrastructure, all the upgrades."
 

Cons

"Their technical support isn't so good."
"The Solution is stable, yet when the data became huge, the Payroll Users are facing slow execution of the Payroll."
"The HR portal, training model, and the development career model all need improvement."
"For companies in the Gulf area, I would not recommend this solution."
"The user interface could be improved and the maintenance is complex when it comes to upgrades."
"There are difficulties regarding the reporting part."
"I think the areas of training and performance could be improved in the solution."
"The solution is a little bit slow."
"The performance and reaction time can be improved."
"Visually, Oracle HCM Cloud needs improvement. For example, the employee portal looks rather old, so it would be awesome if Oracle refreshed its design or if the portal looked more modern. Oracle HCM Cloud works, but visually, it needs improvement."
"The data uploading part and backup could be better. They are a bit complex. Oracle is continuously changing it from one functionality to another. It's a bit unstable right now, and it's basically on the backend data upload part. If I have to upload, for example, data for 100 employees, it's a bit of a challenge for an end-user. It can be difficult if you're not a technical person and an end-user like me. I administer the platform, and if I get a request to upload and I'm not a technical person, then I'm just lost. I have to do some research and then complete the task. But it's evolving, and I hope it's more user-friendly in the future. In the next release, I would like a more stable mobile application. The current version isn't very stable. It takes time to open, and although they have come up with new UI pages, a few open areas need to be addressed. I would also like to see more robust and user-friendly data uploading techniques that would be helpful for end users like us. We don't have a technical background, and we just want to upload the data for our day-to-day operations."
"The absence management can use some improvement. Due to all the flexible working, the part with work schedules could be a little bit more flexible."
"I rate the technical support of Oracle HCM Cloud an eight out of ten. There is some room for improvement."
"The implementation was complex. We needed a third-party Oracle partner to help us to set up the solution."
"We have received some unfavorable feedback regarding Oracle HCM Cloud's performance. This has led us to investigate alternative solutions. In my own experience, I have struggled with the slowness of the cloud assessment and the overwhelming complexity of the software's robust architecture. I have reservations about sharing any positive experiences I may have had with the solution."
"The user interface is not conducive to high volume data entry."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Meta4 requires annual maintenance that needs to be paid for."
"From a cost perspective, I think this is a well-balanced option."
"It has a licensing cost. It has a cloud-based subscription, which is quite cheap."
"I cannot comment on the cost, as this is handled by a different team."
"The is a license needed to use the solution. The license can be paid in different increments, such as quarterly."
"It is definitely super expensive. Oracle is very, very expensive for what they offer."
"The contract for one of them will be extended for three years and for another one for two years. One of them is paying monthly, and another one is paying per quarter. I don't know about the third one. So, it differs."
"I am not normally involved in the product's pricing since it normally involves the packages that a user chooses. Pricing differs based on a case-to-case scenario and client-to-client basis."
"The solution is quite expensive for small and medium-sized companies."
"On average, it's not a cheap solution."
