Offers many useful modules and integrations, and helps companies adhere to best practices
The main advantage of SuccessFactors is its ability to add many types of integrations within the SAP Cloud platform. Many useful modules can be implemented alongside SuccessFactors as third-party integrations, and this capability to extend the system is a big plus. Another positive for SuccessFactors is how it provides pre-defined best practices for building the solution, with plans that take you from A to Z directly. You don't need to build anything from scratch when you're using their implementation best practices for configuring the system. Within these best practices, you also have a range of options for customization, such as with the Metadata Framework (MDF) and the Business Rules feature where you can create various conditions when it comes to managing customers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Microsoft Viva Insights is integrated with Outlook and SharePoint. It helps me to reply and attend all scheduled meetings."
"We have found objects like Foundation and MDF most valuable."
"All of SuccessFactors' features are useful, but there are several modules within SuccessFactors that I find handy. You have Employee Central, which manages employee records within the system. It manages all the information about an employee, including names, addresses, account numbers, positions, org charts, etc. It also handles performance reviews and KPIs for employees within an organization. Then you have succession planning and development as well."
"What I like most about SAP SuccessFactors are its recruiting and compensation features."
"It's a uniform user interface."
"The most valuable feature is the onboarding module, which enables candidates to fill in their details online and smoothly transitions data from the recruitment module into the SAP database."
"Flexible with a lot of good features."
"The SuccessFactors learning applications within the SuccessFactors learning modules, as well as the performance management system, are highly beneficial for each and every employee in our organization. These tools eliminate the need for using Excel to manage data, allowing for direct input into the system. This streamlines the process, making it easier to view and analyze information. We can readily access our performance history, comparing our actions and achievements from the previous year. At present, we are consistently monitoring our day-to-day performance."
"SuccessFactors' most valuable feature is performance management."
 

Cons

"I get very few notifications of Microsoft Viva Insights on my mobile."
"Also, it would be helpful if they could improve its ability to localize the product to Nigeria."
"I would like to be able to configure objects from instances, not from import and export files."
"SAP SuccessFactors needs to improve the LMS and performance management."
"I find that the website sometimes has problems loading, but I'm unsure if it's an issue with SuccessFactors. After the login, there are some connection issues. We get some errors telling us that it cannot connect to the host."
"There should be more connectivity with other systems."
"SAP SuccessFactors functionality doesn't meet the expectation of our end users. There are other solutions that have better functionality, such as Workday, which is one of the top applications. Additionally, the solution could be easier to use."
"One area of improvement is the time taken to configure changes, such as taxation rules, which can take several months."
"The user experience could be simplified."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I rate the tool's pricing a seven to eight out of ten."
"We are on an annual subscription to use SAP SuccessFactors. The pricing model is something that they could restructure a bit better. If it was based differently on the type of usage it would help."
"The price of the solution depends on too many factors to provide an estimate. However, the price of SAP SuccessFactors is competitive."
"It is not expensive because it is a complete suite with a module-based cost."
"The pricing for SuccessFactors is ridiculously high, and there are costs in addition to the license fee for some features."
"The product is expensive. The product is worth the money you pay for it."
"The licensing fees are based on the number of modules that are being used, and the number of users."
"The price of the solution is highly expensive."
