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.

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 feature of this solution is the payment engine."
"This solution would be good and more cost-effective than an SAP if you are only looking for HR functionality."
"The most valuable features of Meta4 are payroll and resource recruitment. However, all of the features in the human resource system are useful."
"The most valuable feature is you can customize every type of payroll calculation that you have."
"Performance appraisal might be the most valuable feature for us."
"The solution is very helpful as it allows us to optimize and consolidate all the data for talent management."
"Meta4 HCM helps us consolidate HR data across various regions."
"It helps to optimize some workflows and provides reporting capabilities."
"I think that it's stable, and I don't believe that there are any issues."
"This solution is valuable because it's robust and very dependable."
"In terms of ERP, it's a good product. It's convenient."
"The solution's scalability potential is very good, and we have more than 1,000 users ourselves."
"This product can greatly improve handling of human resources and efficiency."
"It's highly stable because the system is totally managed by Oracle, Oracle provides 99.9% availability for the system uptime."
"I like that it is mobile responsive and you can work directly with the vendor on specific requirements that you might have."
"It is very user-friendly, and most of the UI is very intuitive so you don't need to follow a course to use it, with one single UI regardless of your roles so you don't have to log into separate applications depending on whether you're HR or just a normal employee."
 

Cons

"I think the areas of training and performance could be improved in the solution."
"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."
"The user interface could be improved and the maintenance is complex when it comes to upgrades."
"I rate the support from Meta4 a two out of five."
"There is room for improvements, such as including AI solutions for people management to improve job descriptions, recruitment reels, skills mapping, etc."
"In future releases, it would be useful to see reporting lines of all the team members in our business to understand who reports to whom."
"There are difficulties regarding the reporting part."
"It's not so easy to customize as it's cloud-based."
"Once we are done working on a template, we can't change it unless we create a new one."
"An employee needs training to apply for leave, something as simple as that. They shouldn't need training materials or user guides to navigate the system. We're moving towards empowering users, especially with end-user-facing systems. People should be self-reliant and not need to rely on manuals. Oracle HCM Cloud is very old-school in this regard."
"The UI needs improvement."
"The native mobile application TAP is in great need of improvement."
"The interfaces could be improved because when you're going into the landing page, the interfaces look a bit blunt when they could be more user-friendly."
"It could be more user-friendly."
"Oracle needs to make some sort of support repository that is up to date."
 

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 solution is quite expensive for small and medium-sized companies."
"The is a license needed to use the solution. The license can be paid in different increments, such as quarterly."
"On an annual basis, we pay about $25,000 for our company. This includes the VAT, support, upgrades and everything else."
"The data traffic cost is expensive. The solution can scale up beyond my imagination, but the cost can rise up easily."
"Though I cannot comment on the solution's cost, a fixed cost is involved based on my understanding. The cost multiplies based on the number of users."
"I cannot comment on the cost, as this is handled by a different team."
"I don't know how much it costs, but I know that everything is included. We don't pay anything extra apart from the licensing fee."
"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."
