Featured Reviews

Valda Coelho - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhancing HR engagement with effective development but could benefit from AI-driven improvements
The primary feature I appreciate about the solution is the information connection, allowing us to have a full employee life cycle visibility over the platforms. It also enables the creation of interactions between employees, launching communication campaigns that raise engagement. 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 second valuable feature is the autonomy each employee has to update their personal data. In terms of talent management, it helps design development processes, backups, and clearly view the criteria for those backups being achieved.

"The most valuable feature is you can customize every type of payroll calculation that you have."

"The solution is very good at building out a roadmap based on client needs and feedback."
"Absence management, self-release, self-service, and raising help desk issues are particularly valuable."
"Oracle HCM Cloud is essential for security needs and especially for payroll. The payroll feature is very good."

"The solution has new features like AI-embedded solutions that are very useful for helping customers gain a lot of new insights."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvements, such as including AI solutions for people management to improve job descriptions, recruitment reels, skills mapping, etc."
"Meta4 could improve by allowing users to manage things by themself."
"There are difficulties regarding the reporting part."
"The first response usually lacks depth, and if it were just an HR user submitting tickets, the outcome might be poor."
"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."
"The user interface could be improved and the maintenance is complex when it comes to upgrades."
"The HR portal, training model, and the development career model all need improvement."
"The HR portal, training model, and development career model could all use improvement. Stability and scalability should be improved as well."
"The customization of the solution presents many challenges."
"The compensation module needs further automation."
"Although the performance management is good, it could be improved as its functionality is quite basic."
"The recruitment aspect is good, but it's new and it still needs some enhancements. In the future, we hope it will be similar to Taleo."
"We're not receiving the proper support."
"Oracle should have different bundles to provide access to courses. Then, we would be able to increase our knowledge on how to use Oracle applications."
"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."
"Visually, Oracle HCM Cloud needs improvement. For example, the employee portal looks rather old, so it would be awesome if Oracle refreshed its design or if the portal looked more modern. Oracle HCM Cloud works, but visually, it needs improvement."
