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.

Decades of use have delivered secure, customizable control for public sector operations and finance
I have just completed three assessments: one on inventory demand planning, another on using artificial intelligence to bring supplier contracts in portable document format directly into PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft works both internally as well as with third-party products that integrate seamlessly with PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft operates both from a need-to-know-only basis as well as being able at the same time to do group purchase and realize large quantity purchase discounts. My clients have used marketplaces, and it is really industry-specific whether they use one or not, or if there is even one available. I would rate this product nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This product is user-friendly and great for reporting purposes."
"It has a user-friendly interface in managing job requisitions for the end user."
"It is a reliable, simple to use, end-to-end system for employee lifecycle management."
"Once automated through the system, the approval timeframe decreased to two days."
"Most of features in PageUp are very useful."
"The talent acquisition and the onboarding components of the system are most valuable."
"PageUp has allowed us to integrate all HR systems and manage all processes associated with the employee lifecycle from recruitment through to managing performance, learning and development; also where applicable, departures from the organisation processes."
"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."
"One of the best on-prem ERP systems on the market with robust features."
"PeopleSoft is mostly used for payroll and core HR functionality, and some customers use it for its finance module."
"Customer service is good."
"Scales up very well."
"The solution's scalability is good."
"The customizations allow us to come up with a lot of complex labor rules. In the Philippines, there's a lot of different kinds of rules you need to be in compliance with. The solution offers up a lot of flexibility and customization that is perfect for our region's requirements."
"We use a lot of typical cases from PeopleSoft, for example, solutions for security, business performance, monitoring processes, and a lot of training."
"The synchronization of business processes, and the software, streamlined the shared service departments to run 40% leaner."
 

Cons

"Personally, I believe that they could be more proactive in assuring that, as a client, you are getting the best ROI possible."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"There are sometimes problems when loading the system; it can be very slow."
"The ability to pull reports was limited for us."
"Initially, we experienced issues with the stability of the learning management module as we migrated 50,000+ existing training records from our old system."
"I am not satisfied with this solution because its performance is not good."
"Technical support's gotten weaker over the years."
"Mobility isn’t the greatest."
"We have already deployed it and we have had it for several years but we are switching to a modern HCM SaaS cloud product."
"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."
"Reporting was our biggest challenge that was not "delivered" by PeopleSoft."
"I wasn't part of the team that originally implemented it, but I was involved in upgrades. I think it was extremely difficult."
"Reports can definitely be improved."
 

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."
"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"The licensing cost for PeopleSoft is 3,500 per course and the annual subscription fee is 6,500."
"We are a University and the cost and license are negotiated privately."
"I would consider this to be an expensive product, but the quality justifies it."
"The solution is priced per module."
"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."
"There are no additional costs for licensing."
"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."

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 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.
What needs improvement with PeopleSoft?
More delivered artificial intelligence functionality in operations and finance would be helpful.
