Director at Edge HR
Has all-inclusive pricing and good talent acquisition and onboarding components, and is an excellent product for mid-sized to large organizations
They could probably add surveying, as in engagement surveys, to their product. That would be something that would be valued by their customers. For instance, Culture Amp is a product that does a lot of the engagement stuff. They're diversifying into other aspects of talent management. It is not yet at the same scale as PageUp People, but it is an excellent product as well.

Newcomers benefit from automation and user-friendly integration
PeopleSoft is affordable for existing customers only, not for new customers. The popularity is declining for several reasons. Resources are moving to cloud solutions such as Workday cloud. Even though it is the same Oracle environment, professionals are transitioning due to challenges in availability, scalability, and resource allocation. When there are limited hiring opportunities for a particular technology, professionals must consider switching technologies either internally within their organization or personally. If a project ends and someone is placed on bench without new opportunities, they often need to switch to technologies with more market demand. Currently, resources are frequently moving to other ERP systems such as Workday, SAP, Mulesoft, and Salesforce, as there are numerous ERP systems in the marketplace.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It provides a centralised repository of information for various HR functions."
"I loved that function, as it made it SO much easier to work out the logistics of those days, and allowing candidates to book their own time slot was a lifesaver as it would have been a nightmare trying to do it for them."
"I have recommended PageUp to a lot of my networks due to the fact that it is one of the best systems on the market in terms of functionality, support, and reporting capability."
"This product is user-friendly and great for reporting purposes."
"PageUp has a different model from other organizations; as part of their pricing structure, they tend to work with you very closely and not charge you for the setup, so there is one price all inclusive of setup, and for that reason, they become an attractive provider to work with."
"Once automated through the system, the approval timeframe decreased to two days."
"It is a reliable, simple to use, end-to-end system for employee lifecycle management."
"Most of features in PageUp are very useful."
"It is a customizable product. We can customize it based on our needs, which is one of the features that I like about PeopleSoft. As far as financial accounting is concerned, the user interface is very good. You can also configure Chart of Accounts for all performance insights."
"PeopleSoft is an amazing solution. Its users can have total control of the system, including PeopleCode, Application Engine and Component Interface, along with many other tools delivered by PeopleSoft."
"We've had a really excellent customer experience with it because of two main features -- it's easy to upgrade and it interfaces well with other systems."
"The fact that it's an all-enterprise solution is the most valuable feature to me."
"PeopleSoft HCM is a mature, flexible and robust product."
"I have not found another product that even comes close to PeopleSoft."
"The customization and catering to our specific needs have helped, with obvious benefits as the streamlining process is accelerating and it aids me from an auditing perspective since it's all system-driven and cannot be altered."
"PeopleSoft is mostly used for payroll and core HR functionality, and some customers use it for its finance module."
 

Cons

"Initially, we experienced issues with the stability of the learning management module as we migrated 50,000+ existing training records from our old system."
"Maybe there is a need to improve the interface so that we will be able to easily search for modules in regards to the system fix."
"The automated removal of historical data would be great if the user could remove it on an ad-hoc basis when required."
"In the Boolean search functions, I would like to be able to search CVs in regards to the skills using the AND/OR functions as well as keywords."
"It is probably not as scalable as SAP SuccessFactors or other talent management systems that are available in the global marketplace."
"In our experience, PageUp has not been as flexible as we would like or expect as a vendor."
"Personally, I believe that they could be more proactive in assuring that, as a client, you are getting the best ROI possible."
"The ability to pull reports was limited for us."
"The main area for improvement would be with performance in some cases, specifically with migrations."
"The product was too complicated when it came to navigating through multiple places and the search filters weren't great."
"There are some small things I'd like changing, but the big thing that needs work is their technical support."
"One aspect where PeopleSoft could see improvement is in its level of customization."
"Technical support is not very good and needs improvement in the area of speed in responding to issues."
"Tools and UI could be enhanced."
"One of the areas that could improve is the capability of utilizing mobile for some of the self-service activities that are missing. They are running on the older platform. What is happening is people are focusing on the cloud. PeopleSoft is a good provider and should into the cloud. That could be an advantage for them. Customers would not have to go find another solution that is a completely different platform that has different functionality altogether."
"The solution's initial setup is not straightforward."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"PageUp has a different model from other organizations. As part of their pricing structure, they tend to work with you very closely and not charge you for the setup. So, there is one price all inclusive of setup, and for that reason, they become an attractive provider to work with. Here in Australia, the education sector has gravitated very heavily towards PageUp."
"Check all options before a decision is made."
"The licensing cost for PeopleSoft is 3,500 per course and the annual subscription fee is 6,500."
"It's approximately $3,000,000 to $4,000,000 USD per year."
"There are no additional costs for licensing."
"The tool is expensive."
"Mostly yearly payments are to be made toward licensing costs. It is not much of an expensive solution."
"I don't know if they are still providing licenses or if they have suspending licenses."
"Yearly payments are to be made toward the licensing costs of PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft is not very expensive, so I feel it is an affordable product."
