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

"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."
"The support team were friendly and work in a systematic way. When contacting support you are able to add a level of priority to your case which is always respected by their team."
"It allowed us to fully automate payroll/salary processing for 6000 employees, and this is now operated by only three people."
"It helps to optimize some workflows and provides reporting capabilities."
"The tool provides a lot of options."
"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."
"It is the most complete and customizable solution on the market."
"It has simplified the management of users and roles into a single UI and is a great advance for implementers and system administrators alike."
"Their technical support is okay; I don't have any problems with the Oracle support part, and they are of great help."
"The core part and the talent management part are most valuable."
"It has good navigation, and it is user friendly and secure. Every three months, there is an upgrade, and it has new features."
"The solution has good integration with other applications."
"Oracle HCM Cloud is a stable solution."
"It has completely changed the way we work, because it automated the majority of our HR processes."
"Job postings and links to job boards are very helpful for talent acquisition."
 

Cons

"The user interface could be improved and the maintenance is complex when it comes to upgrades."
"Reporting (although it doesn't always work as intended)."
"The HR portal, training model, and the development career model all need improvement."
"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 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 have recruitment and acquisition features added to this solution."
"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."
"The cost of Oracle HCM Cloud is high, it could be reduced."
"The initial setup is straightforward. However, it is more complex than Oracle Taleo because it has a lot more features have complexity."
"Lacks relevancy for the current generation."
"Oracle HCM Cloud could improve by adding AI and more offline capabilities."
"The support from Oracle HCM Cloud is great, they are responsive and helpful. However, they still could improve."
"We have received some unfavorable feedback regarding Oracle HCM Cloud's performance. This has led us to investigate alternative solutions. In my own experience, I have struggled with the slowness of the cloud assessment and the overwhelming complexity of the software's robust architecture. I have reservations about sharing any positive experiences I may have had with the solution."
"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."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"From a cost perspective, I think this is a well-balanced option."
"Meta4 requires annual maintenance that needs to be paid for."
"The price for Oracle HCM Cloud is expensive in Iran, but in other countries, such as Turkey, it can be reasonably priced."
"There is a subscription to use this solution, and there can be additional fees."
"The solution is expensive."
"The solution is quite expensive for small and medium-sized companies."
"The contract for one of them will be extended for three years and for another one for two years. One of them is paying monthly, and another one is paying per quarter. I don't know about the third one. So, it differs."
"The data traffic cost is expensive. The solution can scale up beyond my imagination, but the cost can rise up easily."
"According to the Turkish market, the pricing is a little bit expensive."
"There is a license required for the use of this solution and we are on an annual license."
