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

"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."
"This product is user-friendly and great for reporting purposes."
"Most of features in PageUp are very useful."
"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."
"If you are looking for a product with great support, recruitment functionality, ease-of-use, and reliability, this is a great product."
"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 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."
"Peoplesoft is the best payroll software in the market."
"The PeopleSoft interface is very good."
"Flexibility in configuration."
"In general, this solution is user-friendly and also performs well."
"However, I definitely enjoy working with the software as I have been working with them for so long."
"What I like is that we can have multiple web services created and multiple consumers can use them together without any interruption or downtime."
"The ability to fully customize it for our needs is huge and is by far the most valuable feature for us when it comes to HR management."
"A valuable feature is FSCM."
 

Cons

"The on-boarding process, with specific relation to the provisioning process, isn’t set up as well as other competitors, such as RedCarpet (SilkRoad)."
"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."
"The ability to pull reports was limited for us."
"There are sometimes problems when loading the system; it can be very slow."
"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."
"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."
"Initially, we experienced issues with the stability of the learning management module as we migrated 50,000+ existing training records from our old system."
"First-level support is poor, but second-level support has been fantastic."
"I am not satisfied with this solution because its performance is not good."
"There should be more analytics, monitoring analytics, and also machine learning should be incorporated into the core product."
"The product was too complicated when it came to navigating through multiple places and the search filters weren't great."
"We struggle with release notes."
"This is an area I would warn others about. I've worked on several implementations and there's a long period of time within which PeopleSoft needs to be implemented."
"Having applications which provide more enhanced features and user-friendly elements."
"It would be nice if it became even more declarative in its development."
 

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."
"PeopleSoft has a yearly maintenance fee."
"One of the cheapest solutions available and also one of the best."
"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"There are no additional costs for licensing."
"The solution is priced per module."
"The main issue we have with the solution is that it is very expensive."
"The expenses related to the solution are nominal."
"The licensing cost for PeopleSoft is 3,500 per course and the annual subscription fee is 6,500."

More delivered artificial intelligence functionality in operations and finance would be helpful.
