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

"This product is user-friendly and great for reporting purposes."
"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."
"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."
"Most of features in PageUp are very useful."
"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."
"It provides a centralised repository of information for various HR functions."
"If you are looking for a product with great support, recruitment functionality, ease-of-use, and reliability, this is a great product."
"The most valuable feature is that it's easy to use."
"Flexibility in configuration."
"It’s a very robust and mature product, and perhaps it’s the first HCM product that came out onto the market."
"The recruiting is most valuable, as it saves time in having easy and fast applicants tracking as well as candidates' contact plus pipeline management."
"The most valuable feature of PeopleSoft is the functionality that allows the ability to find all the data about employees that are needed."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its stability."
"PeopleSoft is easy to understand, where any end user that is logged in can easily navigate through the menus."
 

Cons

"There are sometimes problems when loading the system; it can be very slow."
"The ability to pull reports was limited for us."
"It is probably not as scalable as SAP SuccessFactors or other talent management systems that are available in the global marketplace."
"The on-boarding process, with specific relation to the provisioning process, isn’t set up as well as other competitors, such as RedCarpet (SilkRoad)."
"In our experience, PageUp has not been as flexible as we would like or expect as a vendor."
"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."
"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."
"For HCM the editing criteria, especially for the time and labor section, the editing tool needs improvement."
"PeopleSoft could improve by being more user-friendly. It's somewhat awkward to navigate."
"The area that could be improved is the upgrade process, it's not the easiest. Oracle stopped supporting our version."
"The ease of integration needs improvement."
"PeopleSoft is affordable for existing customers only, not for new customers."
"The reporting needs to be improved."
"We needed to do a lot of integration with third-party applications in order to get the functionality that we needed. The API integration could be better."
"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."
 

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."
"It's approximately $3,000,000 to $4,000,000 USD per year."
"The solution is priced per module."
"The main issue we have with the solution is that it is very 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."
"There are no additional costs for licensing."
"The tool is expensive."
"I don't know if they are still providing licenses or if they have suspending licenses."

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.
