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

Pros

"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."
"Meta4 HCM helps us consolidate HR data across various regions."
"Performance appraisal might be the most valuable feature for us."
"The tool provides a lot of options."
"The most valuable feature is you can customize every type of payroll calculation that you have."
"It allowed us to fully automate payroll/salary processing for 6000 employees, and this is now operated by only three people."
"The most valuable features of Meta4 are payroll and resource recruitment. However, all of the features in the human resource system are useful."
"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. Most of the UI is very intuitive so you don't need to follow a course to follow it up."
"The tool's implementation has resulted in significant time savings, ranging from 30 to 50 percent across various processes. Oracle HCM, particularly its payroll functionality, has proven to be highly valuable for our organization. Additionally, the ability to implement various customizations has proven valuable. The robust nature of Oracle HCM Cloud ensures high accuracy."
"The solution has new features like AI-embedded solutions that are very useful for helping customers gain a lot of new insights."
"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."
"It has simplified the management of users and roles into a single UI and is a great advance for implementers and system administrators alike."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the core HR, absence, payroll, and recruitment modules."

Cons

"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."
"Meta4 could improve by allowing users to manage things by themself."
"The solution is a little bit slow."
"There is room for improvements, such as including AI solutions for people management to improve job descriptions, recruitment reels, skills mapping, etc."
"I would like to see more flexibility in integration interfaces for different functions."
"There are some modules and suits that are more stable than others. But when it comes to supply chain and financial clients, it's still something written with bugs."
"I rate this solution a three out of ten."
"Oracle's technical support is generally satisfactory yet lacks flexibility and rapid response times."
"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."
"The customization of the solution presents many challenges."
"Legal local legislation integration could improve."
"I would like to see more direct access for both human resources and employees without so many screens to navigate."
 

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 an annual basis, we pay about $25,000 for our company. This includes the VAT, support, upgrades and everything else."
"Oracle HCM offers many features at a low price."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"It has a licensing cost. It has a cloud-based subscription, which is quite cheap."
"The price of Oracle HCM Cloud could improve. However, everyone would like the price of a solution they are using to be less expensive."
"The data traffic cost is expensive. The solution can scale up beyond my imagination, but the cost can rise up easily."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"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."
