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

"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."
"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."
"The talent acquisition and the onboarding components of the system are most valuable."
"This product is user-friendly and great for reporting purposes."
"It provides a centralised repository of information for various HR functions."
"It is a reliable, simple to use, end-to-end system for employee lifecycle management."
"It has a user-friendly interface in managing job requisitions for the end user."
"Most of features in PageUp are very useful."
"PeopleSoft automatically generates code, making it easier to integrate with third-party or internal systems."
"This solution integrates very well with other products which is helpful."
"It is a customizable product; we can customize it based on our needs, which is one of the features that I like about PeopleSoft, and as far as financial accounting is concerned, the user interface is very good and you can also configure Chart of Accounts for all performance insights."
"I think PeopleSoft is a good tool for HR administrators; it's easy to navigate compared to the other ERPs, the management of the tool is straightforward from the employee's perspective so the employee experience is good, and PeopleSoft is intuitive so no one needs to be taught how to use the system."
"Job data is a valuable feature."
"I often say that PeopleSoft's greatest feature is how customizable it is."
"I'd like PeopleSoft to be like on the cloud and more mobile-friendly. If I try to access it from a cell phone, it's a bit difficult, so it would be great if PeopleSoft could improve these features."
"PeopleSoft allows you to schedule upgrades and inform users beforehand. This gives your IT team time to manage the implementation and minimize disruption."
 

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."
"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 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."
"Reporting could be improved. Some changes were made to functionality a year or two ago, and whilst there have certainly been some improvements in some areas (in terms of the dashboard view, for example), we have experienced some difficulty in trying to automate some fairly standard reports to be sent out to our hiring areas regarding current recruitment in their respective areas."
"There are many areas in this product that can be improved, especially in regards to the EPM side since they have different products doing that."
"We've had to build all our data warehouses and datamarts in order for PeopleSoft to do the detailed reporting that we need."
"PeopleSoft can improve by having proper connectors. It's very difficult to change some interfaces with the other systems."
"Scalability is not there in PeopleSoft. Its performance and resilience are also very bad. When you're trying to stretch it, it breaks. It is not resilient. It is also not stable. It is stable as far as data is concerned, but the infrastructure is not stable."
"This solution could be improved by lowering the cost of support."
"An area for improvement would be PeopleSoft's global payroll capabilities, which could be easier to use."
"I think the inventory part it should be simplified. There is a lot of shuffling through pages, which creates a lot of problems for our users."
"Services that need improvement include PeopleSoft Query, Pivot Grids, and PeopleSoft Test Framework."
 

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."
"The product's cost depends on the number of people in your company or the number of paychecks processed. They charge based on these factors, plus a maintenance fee. I'm not sure about current pricing since Oracle took over."
"Mostly yearly payments are to be made toward licensing costs. It is not much of an expensive solution."
"The solution is priced per module."
"The expenses related to the solution are nominal."
"There are no additional costs for licensing."
"We are a University and the cost and license are negotiated privately."
"This solution offers annual licensing. We pay per user."
"PeopleSoft has a yearly maintenance fee."

What are the differences between Oracle HCM Cloud and PeopleSoft?
Although both are solutions to manage HR, their differences make each one suitable for different companies. Oracle Cloud HCM is a platform for connecting all human resource processes in your organ...
What do you like most about PeopleSoft?
I use the reporting feature occasionally to check for potential improvements in timesheets. We have integrated it with Power BI.
What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for PeopleSoft?
The pricing is customer-specific, so I am not generally privy to what the pricing for licensing is. However, generally, I think PeopleSoft is certainly cheaper than cloud solutions.
