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.

"The technical support is very good."
 

Cons

"To put it bluntly, the e-Mind product is obsolete older technology, and has no upgrade path for the new PeopleNet product."

"There is room for improvements, such as including AI solutions for people management to improve job descriptions, recruitment reels, skills mapping, etc."

"I rate the technical support of Oracle HCM Cloud an eight out of ten. There is some room for improvement."

"With HCM Cloud, I have only created two or three SRs, and so far, not bad, but I wouldn't go to phenomenal yet."
"I believe what could be improved is the EX portion of Oracle HCM Cloud and how it can more easily integrate with other tools."

"Exposure to users on the volume or utilization of servers and memory is necessary. Currently, when users hit the threshold, the system experiences a slowdown."
"From the feedback that I get, the functional side of the payroll could be improved."
"I think some of the newer technology innovations, such as gamification and consumerization are areas that could be improved."
