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

"The talent acquisition and the onboarding components of the system are most valuable."
"This product is user-friendly and great for reporting purposes."
"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."
"Once automated through the system, the approval timeframe decreased to two days."
"It provides a centralised repository of information for various HR functions."
"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."
"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."
"The solution's scalability is good."
"I use the reporting feature occasionally to check for potential improvements in timesheets. We have integrated it with Power BI."
"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."
"A solid and mature product."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is having the sources so that you're able to adapt the product to your needs. That was a big benefit."
"The integration between Human Capital Management (HCM) and PeopleSoft is an important feature."
"HR/payroll is integrated with Financials, so we don't have to enter data in two places."
"It's great for helping users deal with their supply chain."
 

Cons

"In our experience, PageUp has not been as flexible as we would like or expect as a vendor."
"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."
"It is probably not as scalable as SAP SuccessFactors or other talent management systems that are available in the global marketplace."
"Initially, we experienced issues with the stability of the learning management module as we migrated 50,000+ existing training records from our old system."
"Personally, I believe that they could be more proactive in assuring that, as a client, you are getting the best ROI possible."
"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 ability to pull reports was limited for us."
"There are sometimes problems when loading the system; it can be very slow."
"The whole systematic flow of any query raised to HR should be improved."
"We have already deployed it and we have had it for several years but we are switching to a modern HCM SaaS cloud product."
"Regarding technical support, they often discourage using PeopleSoft and push for Oracle. Many support staff are offshore and don't understand the system well."
"There are many areas in this product that can be improved, especially in regards to the EPM side since they have different products doing that."
"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."
"The turnaround time is a little long."
"I would like for the initial rollout process to be completed faster so that it can be implemented in a more efficient manner."
"They cannot go and get a report that easily."
 

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 expenses related to the solution are nominal."
"We are a University and the cost and license are negotiated privately."
"It's approximately $3,000,000 to $4,000,000 USD per year."
"I would consider this to be an expensive product, but the quality justifies it."
"This solution offers annual licensing. We pay per user."
"Check all options before a decision is made."
"The solution is priced per module."
"The licensing cost for PeopleSoft is 3,500 per course and the annual subscription fee is 6,500."

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.
