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

"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."
"It is a reliable, simple to use, end-to-end system for employee lifecycle management."
"It provides a centralised repository of information for various HR functions."
"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."
"Once automated through the system, the approval timeframe decreased to two days."
"This product is user-friendly and great for reporting purposes."
"It has a user-friendly interface in managing job requisitions for the end user."
"I often say that PeopleSoft's greatest feature is how customizable it is."
"PeopleSoft allows you to schedule upgrades and inform users beforehand. This gives your IT team time to manage the implementation and minimize disruption."
"The most valuable feature for us is the integration between the HR Payroll and Financials modules."
"The financial capabilities are great."
"The most valuable features most important to me are the web solution, the web interface, and the integration with other ECM products."
"Scales up very well."
"Customer Service: Excellent, since Oracle support is always available."
"Very stable in terms of performance and scalability."
 

Cons

"There are sometimes problems when loading the system; it can be very slow."
"It is probably not as scalable as SAP SuccessFactors or other talent management systems that are available in the global marketplace."
"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."
"Initially, we experienced issues with the stability of the learning management module as we migrated 50,000+ existing training records from our old system."
"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 on-boarding process, with specific relation to the provisioning process, isn’t set up as well as other competitors, such as RedCarpet (SilkRoad)."
"Personally, I believe that they could be more proactive in assuring that, as a client, you are getting the best ROI possible."
"Initial setup can be complex without training or use of consultants."
"For HCM the editing criteria, especially for the time and labor section, the editing tool needs improvement."
"This solution could be improved by lowering the cost of support."
"Reporting was our biggest challenge that was not "delivered" by PeopleSoft."
"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."
"On the other hand, the more recent push for standardization precludes customized approaches to certain industry requirements."
"The quality of service has gone down after Oracle took over and this can be restored, and scope for online search could be improved."
"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."
"The tool is expensive."
"The expenses related to the solution are nominal."
"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 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."
"The main issue we have with the solution is that it is very expensive."
"The solution is priced per module."
"The licensing cost for PeopleSoft is 3,500 per course and the annual subscription fee is 6,500."
"PeopleSoft has a yearly maintenance fee."

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