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

"Performance appraisal might be the most valuable feature for us."
"Stability of this solution is very good, it's a good product."
"The most valuable features of Meta4 are payroll and resource recruitment. However, all of the features in the human resource system are useful."
"This solution would be good and more cost-effective than an SAP if you are only looking for HR functionality."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the payment engine."
"It helps to optimize some workflows and provides reporting capabilities."
"Meta4 HCM helps us consolidate HR data across various regions."
"The performance appraisal is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle HCM Cloud is its integration."
"I like that it is mobile responsive and you can work directly with the vendor on specific requirements that you might have."
"Oracle HCM Cloud offers subscription based services to system that includes web based interface, and mobile and ipad application."
"In terms of ERP, it's a good product. It's convenient."
"The solution is very good at building out a roadmap based on client needs and feedback."
"Oracle is a strong option for purchasing or procurement."
"Oracle HCM Cloud's most valuable feature is that it is user-friendly."
"Since it is an integrated solution, it brings speed and efficiency to the business process."
 

Cons

"There are difficulties regarding the reporting part."
"The Solution is stable, yet when the data became huge, the Payroll Users are facing slow execution of the Payroll."
"Meta4 could improve by allowing users to manage things by themself."
"Their technical support is not so good."
"The first response usually lacks depth, and if it were just an HR user submitting tickets, the outcome might be poor."
"The solution is a little bit slow."
"I would like to have recruitment and acquisition features added to this solution."
"To put it bluntly, the e-Mind product is obsolete older technology, and has no upgrade path for the new PeopleNet product."
"I think I'd like to see Oracle focus on the key components of the system rather than perhaps some of the more fluffy areas that not everyone is going to use."
"There needs to be familiarity mixed in with novelty."
"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 solution could improve by having better integration between on-premise and the cloud. It can be difficult and time-consuming to migrate our applications and interfaces."
"The user interface, as well as the interfaces between modules, should definitely be enhanced."
"Oracle needs to make some sort of support repository that is up to date."
"In some geographies, you might not find specific localizations. For example, here in Turkey, we can use all Oracle Cloud modules except for payroll. The Oracle payroll module isn't localized for the Turkish system. So, we need to integrate a separate, localized payroll solution with Oracle HCM."
"Cloud learning can be improved."
 

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."
"The price of Oracle HCM Cloud could improve. However, everyone would like the price of a solution they are using to be less expensive."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"Pricing is largely determined by what is agreed upon."
"According to the Turkish market, the pricing is a little bit expensive."
"I cannot comment on the cost, as this is handled by a different team."
"I rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten."
"The product could be more affordable."
