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

"It helps to optimize some workflows and provides reporting capabilities."
"The performance appraisal is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature is you can customize every type of payroll calculation that you have."
"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."
"Recently, support has been excellent."
"The performance appraisal is the most valuable feature."
"It allowed us to fully automate payroll/salary processing for 6000 employees, and this is now operated by only three people."
"The solution has a great payroll engine."
"Oracle HCM has a great reporting platform, OTPI, with drag-and-drop functionality. I can design my own reports without relying on the technical team. This empowers HR users to create reports based on their needs, which is a huge advantage."
"This solution is valuable because it's robust and very dependable."
"The solution is very good at building out a roadmap based on client needs and feedback."
"I would recommend Oracle HCM Cloud to others."
"Its integrated modules allow for more seamless business processes."
"Recruitment, talent management, and payroll are the most important features of talent management, especially in the Middle East, where I work. Performance management includes objective settings, performance evaluation, talent review, and succession planning. It also covers goal cascading, setting objectives, performance evaluations, and midyear reviews for performance improvement."
"Its drag-and-drop reporting is great."
"The initial setup or implementation process of the solution is fine. The deployment process took place in two days. So, once one has the runbook and everything in place, it is not that difficult."
 

Cons

"Continuous improvements of Meta4 releases include a number of patches that are not always tested."
"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."
"I think the areas of training and performance could be improved in the solution."
"There is room for improvements, such as including AI solutions for people management to improve job descriptions, recruitment reels, skills mapping, etc."
"Their technical support is not so good."
"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."
"Occasionally there are problems with stability."
"The product needs to keep improving the integration tools and the tools to load the data - that whole mechanism - in order to allow for flexibility in the configuration."
"The support from Oracle HCM Cloud is great, they are responsive and helpful. However, they still could improve."
"I would focus on making high volume recruitment more bulky."
"I rate the technical support of Oracle HCM Cloud an eight out of ten. There is some room for improvement."
"Once we are done working on a template, we can't change it unless we create a new one."
"Cloud learning can be improved."
"Sometimes implementation documentation is a bit behind."
 

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 pricing is reasonable."
"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."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"According to the Turkish market, the pricing is a little bit expensive."
"Oracle HCM offers many features at a low price."
"The solution is quite expensive for small and medium-sized companies."
"The cost of Oracle HCM Cloud is high, it could be reduced. There is an annual subscription and it is user-based."
"There is a subscription to use this solution, and there can be additional fees."
