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Reliable and loaded with features, but the UI is outdated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 Ramco HCM looks outdated and is not as intuitive as it should be.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

"Peoplesoft is the best payroll software in the market."
"The most valuable feature is IDE."
"The most valuable feature is that it's easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is that it's easy to use."
"I think it's a very strong, solid product, very mature."
"The most valuable feature is ERP application information."
"If the organization has complex needs that require constant changes based on business changes and has a solid IT department, there might not be a better solution than PeopleSoft."
"However, I definitely enjoy working with the software as I have been working with them for so long."
"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."
"Once we implemented this solution, it was customizable for our needs and this has been the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"Ramco is user-friendly. The UA is excellent and so easy to use that a customer can easily understand the process with zero knowledge of the system. We can easily walk a new user through the user guide. For each ESS MSS, I can log in to the ESS access. and documentation is available."
"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."
"Ramco HCM stands out due to its reliability and up-to-date compliance with legal, statutory, and regulatory requirements."
"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 is a stable system that doesn't have downtime or fluctuation issues. It can also take large volumes and scale up very fast."
 

Cons

"The main area for improvement would be with performance in some cases, specifically with migrations."
"It needs a better interface on the financial side because there have been more improvements to the RMS interface than the financial one."
"PeopleSoft can improve by having proper connectors. It's very difficult to change some interfaces with the other systems."
"The UI and user experience are not great, and it's not as feature-rich as today's systems."
"I would like for the initial rollout process to be completed faster so that it can be implemented in a more efficient manner."
"The ease of integration needs improvement."
"Areas that need improvement are the add-ons to the fluid pages and additional features in SCM and finance, both functionally and technically."
"Tools and UI could be enhanced."
"The mobile app and web page user experience could be more user friendly."
"One area for improvement in Ramco HCM is its UI, which could be more intuitive. Another area for improvement in the system is that it can be challenging to make some modular-based changes to it."
"There were so many bugs in the older releases."
"The mobile app for this solution could be improved as it lacks many features."
"The one area where I would like to see some improvement would be the mobile app and web page user experience which could be more user friendly."
"They can improve the configuration time because it takes more time than other products to configure the system. It could be because they are managing this single product for all countries, but it would be good if they improve the implementation time because we need to implement the solutions within a timeline. They should provide some kind of auto-configuration so that the system can be configured and implemented within a certain timeline. Implementors should have a provision to configure the system in a short time. There should also be an option to move the setup or configuration from staging to production to save time. These types of automation should be there."
"I would say that there is a lot of room for improvement. They should improve their consistency; the product itself sometimes feels inconsistent because it comes with bugs."
"Ramco could be a bit faster and offer more use cases. A prime aim is to get analytics and this is lacking in Ramco."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are a University and the cost and license are negotiated privately."
"The main issue we have with the solution is that it is very expensive."
"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"The licensing cost for PeopleSoft is 3,500 per course and the annual subscription fee is 6,500."
"One of the cheapest solutions available and also one of the best."
"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."
"Check all options before a decision is made."
"This solution is priced in the middle compared to other solutions on the market."
"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."
