Project Manager, HRIS at a energy/utilities company with 1,001-5,000 employees
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.

Human Resources Intern at a government with 10,001+ employees
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

"The most valuable features of Meta4 are payroll and resource recruitment. However, all of the features in the human resource system are useful."
"From the HR side, the most valuable features are the Learning Management Systems (LMS) that allow providing a personalized service in terms of development, where each employee can choose and architect their development plans."
"Stability of this solution is very good, it's a good product."
"It is the most complete and customizable solution on the market."
"The tool provides a lot of options."
"Meta4 HCM helps us consolidate HR data across various regions."
"Performance appraisal might be the most valuable feature for us."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the payment engine."
"This product can greatly improve handling of human resources and efficiency."
"Oracle HCM Cloud's most valuable feature is that it is user-friendly."
"What I like best about Oracle HCM Cloud is that its configuration is okay. I also like it in terms of updates. Product updates that take place from time to time improve Oracle HCM Cloud. What I also found valuable in the product is that since it's on cloud, you can work with it from any place."
"The most important function is definitely managing the employee and employer staff system. This module allows the company to see information about its own employees. It's crucial for our organization, along with talent management."
"In terms of ERP, it's a good product. It's convenient."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle HCM Cloud is its integration."
"This solution is valuable because it's robust and very dependable."
"The solution has good integration with other applications."
 

Cons

"To put it bluntly, the e-Mind product is obsolete older technology, and has no upgrade path for the new PeopleNet product."
"The solution is a little bit slow."
"For companies in the Gulf area, I would not recommend this solution."
"Reporting (although it doesn't always work as intended)."
"The HR portal, training model, and development career model could all use improvement. Stability and scalability should be improved as well."
"I rate the support from Meta4 a two out of five."
"I think the areas of training and performance could be improved in the solution."
"Continuous improvements of Meta4 releases include a number of patches that are not always tested."
"The GUI interface should be more user-friendly."
"The product is comparably complex to install and deploy properly."
"There should be more digital assistance included, like chatbots."
"Our ROI is okay but it's not in line with what we would like to see or have going forward and that's the challenge. If I want to get a good ROI, I have to invest in improvements."
"The interface could be more user friendly."
"The tool should allow more customization for specific requirements. Some processes could be streamlined, and certain features in specific modules must be added."
"The user interface, as well as the interfaces between modules, should definitely be enhanced."
"The features available in EBS should be available on the cloud as well. When these features are not available on the cloud, it's hard to convince customers to migrate."
 

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."
"On average, it's not a cheap solution."
"The solution is quite expensive for small and medium-sized companies."
"The price for Oracle HCM Cloud is expensive in Iran, but in other countries, such as Turkey, it can be reasonably priced."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"Pricing is largely determined by what is agreed upon."
"Oracle HCM Cloud is pricey, but price-wise, it's now more competitive than in the past year. Here in Central Europe, people also look at the pricing, but Central Europe falls under the UAE and Abu Dhabi in terms of headquarters, management, and strategy, but those states don't care too much about the pricing. Pricing is a significant factor in choosing a solution. In the past, Oracle HCM Cloud was compared to the SAP solution, the largest competitor and up to thirty percent higher in price. Now, Oracle HCM Cloud has a price increase of five to ten percent, which could be pricier than SAP now, but it's a more competitive product nowadays and comparable to SAP."
"On an annual basis, we pay about $25,000 for our company. This includes the VAT, support, upgrades and everything else."
"According to the Turkish market, the pricing is a little bit expensive."
