Great reporting, curriculum, and learning assignment management
We primarily use the solution as a way to allow people to take online courses.  When you need to serve big organizations and you need to train thousands of employees, it's hard to organize on-site courses. With online training, you can train people online quickly and at the same time.  The…

Capable of consolidating data from all countries and providing access to any employee information across locations but poor user experience
Oracle HCM Cloud definitely has a lot to improve from a user experience perspective. The platform is huge and feature-rich, but is it truly appealing to an end user? Is it a two-click solution? Does it match current market trends in user experience? No, it has a lot of catching up to do. For example, is the screen catchy for an employee to see their details or access essential information? No. The user experience is zero. An employee needs training to apply for leave, something as simple as that. They shouldn't need training materials or user guides to navigate the system. We're moving towards empowering users, especially with end-user-facing systems. People should be self-reliant and not need to rely on manuals. Oracle HCM Cloud is very old-school in this regard. It's still stuck in the "PeopleSoft" mentality instead of focusing on a user-friendly experience for employees and managers. So, the user experience needs a major overhaul. So, to summarize, it needs to be more user-friendly and present key information on the login screen. In future releases, I would like to see employee dashboards. Oracle HCM should come up with ready-made employee dashboards, like very simple ones. Right now, an employee dashboard or a manager dashboard, but these should be readily available. You shouldn't expect a customer to go and design something they need. There are a few basic things any employee or manager in any company would want to see. One of the best things would be a very simple org chart. Now, the org chart is quite poor on Oracle. There are applications that focus only on org charts and look really good, giving a lot of details about a team and its employees. But Oracle's org chart is bad, so to be specific, they should improve it a lot.

I see them less in recent new contracts for larger organisations, which are typically won by the other ones mentioned in Q2. From what I have seen from Sumtotal, it is a fine LMS but may be a bit old fashioned with less appealing learning experience.

I see them less in recent new contracts for larger organisations, which are typically won by the other ones mentioned in Q2. From what I have seen from Sumtotal, it is a fine LMS but may be a bit old fashioned with less appealing learning experience. Other attention points are availability of experienced consultancy services in your area and the integration with other modules in the Talent suite, as some of these have been acquired, so integration may be an issue.
