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.

Reliable and loaded with features, but the UI is outdated
The entire UI/UX of the solution can be improved drastically. When I give a new employee, aged 19 and recently graduated, the solution, they are not enthused to use it on a daily basis. Ramco HCM looks outdated and is not as intuitive as it should be. I want to create an easier experience for new generations who come to work with me, with fewer scrolls, clicks, and pages to navigate. The optimization should be available with the minimum number of clicks. This is why I believe UI/UX is the most important element. I would love to see an intuitive web interface for the app, which would enable each user to easily manage and govern their data.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I think it's a very strong, solid product, very mature."
"I have not found another product that even comes close to PeopleSoft."
"The breadcrumb approach to navigation in PeopleSoft is good. nVision is also a good supplement."
"The technical support is very robust and I am satisfied with it."
"All the features of the solution are integral to the functionality. Additionally, the navigation customization is beneficial."
"PeopleSoft is resilient and has the flexibility for us to customize it."
"The customization and catering to our specific needs have helped."
"PeopleSoft is a very solid and robust product."
"Ramco HCM is a stable system that doesn't have downtime or fluctuation issues. It can also take large volumes and scale up very fast."
"For anyone in the Middle East, I would strongly recommend this solution over SuccessFactors or Workday as the payroll feature is very much localized for the region and it supports all the business requirements without any additional modification."
"Ramco HCM's performance management system is really good and supports assessments, appraisals, and more."
"If the implementation is without modification for any of the modules, it’s really simple using their QiK tool; the implementation takes around 2-3 months to go live."
"Once we implemented this solution, it was customizable for our needs and this has been the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The performance management system is really good."
"It is a complete HCM suite from hire to retire that streamlines business requirements."
"In general, the solution is very flexible and can be configured in multiple ways."
 

Cons

"We have already deployed it and we have had it for several years but we are switching to a modern HCM SaaS cloud product."
"The BI component of PeopleSoft is lacking."
"This solution could be improved by lowering the cost of support."
"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 reporting needs to be improved."
"Tools and UI could be enhanced."
"On the other hand, the more recent push for standardization precludes customized approaches to certain industry requirements."
"I would like to see it become available again in Mexico."
"The mobile app and web page user experience could be more user friendly."
"Ramco could be a bit faster and offer more use cases. A prime aim is to get analytics and this is lacking in Ramco."
"The mobile app for this solution could be improved as it lacks many features."
"It can improve on the Comp Off and On Duty leave management process and can include real time Google Maps instead of geo-tagging to track the real location of employees."
"They can improve the configuration time because it takes more time than other products to configure the system."
"The talent management and performance appraisal modules could use some improvement."
"The entire UI/UX of the solution can be improved drastically."
"I would like to see the flexibility to create reports suitable to the company because the standard reports from Ramco are so conservative."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are a University and the cost and license are negotiated privately."
"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."
"I don't know if they are still providing licenses or if they have suspending licenses."
"Mostly yearly payments are to be made toward licensing costs. It is not much of an expensive solution."
"PeopleSoft has a yearly maintenance fee."
"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 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."
"I am not aware of the price because I was working in the implementation team, but pricing is generally based on the requirement, modules, headcount, and country."
"Their customized solution is pretty expensive but much cheaper than its competitors."
"This solution is priced in the middle compared to other solutions on the market."
