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 has a user-friendly interface in managing job requisitions for the end user."
"The talent acquisition and the onboarding components of the system are most valuable."
"If you are looking for a product with great support, recruitment functionality, ease-of-use, and reliability, this is a great product."
"This product is user-friendly and great for reporting purposes."
"Once automated through the system, the approval timeframe decreased to two days."
"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."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of this product is the HR suite; it is the leading vendor for human resources in the market, so for me, the HR and payroll features are the biggest flagship of the PeopleSoft product."
"The PeopleSoft interface is very good."
"I love Oracle support."
"The most valuable feature is that it's wide and broad and it does about everything anybody needs in a major organization from a back-office systems point of view."
"This solution has the potential of making life easier, so it is just a question of adaptation to it."
"PeopleSoft is mostly used for payroll and core HR functionality. Some customers use it for its finance module."
"The financial capabilities are great."
"A valuable feature is HCM."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"In our experience, PageUp has not been as flexible as we would like or expect as a vendor."
"There are sometimes problems when loading the system; it can be very slow."
"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."
"Personally, I believe that they could be more proactive in assuring that, as a client, you are getting the best ROI possible."
"The automated removal of historical data would be great if the user could remove it on an ad-hoc basis when required."
"The whole systematic flow of any query raised to HR should be improved."
"The implementation of PeopleSoft is quite complex and is not as easy as other cloud products such as SuccessFactor or Workday."
"There should be more analytics, monitoring analytics, and also machine learning should be incorporated into the core product."
"An area for improvement would be that it's quite difficult to learn how to use this product, and the documentation provided isn't helpful in giving you practical advice."
"The area that could be improved is the upgrade process, it's not the easiest. Oracle stopped supporting our version. So we have to move either to the cloud or work in a non-supported situation. That was certainly a disadvantage. That's also the reason why we decided not to stay with Oracle. Now we are moving to SAP."
"I think it needs better integration with other parties."
"I think PeopleSoft should focus on enhancing the tools and the UI, and making it a more updated app as opposed to the old, tiny, older look and feel."
"I wasn't part of the team that originally implemented it, but I was involved in upgrades. I think it was extremely difficult."
 

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."
"We are a University and the cost and license are negotiated privately."
"PeopleSoft has a yearly maintenance fee."
"The main issue we have with the solution is that it is very expensive."
"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."
"The tool is expensive."
"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."
"I would consider this to be an expensive product, but the quality justifies it."
"The solution is priced per module."

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.
