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Reliable and loaded with features, but the UI is outdated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 Ramco HCM looks outdated and is not as intuitive as it should be.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

"There were no issues with stability."
"PeopleSoft automatically generates code, making it easier to integrate with third-party or internal systems."
"It is a very stable ERP solution, supported on Oracle Cloud and providing extensive features such as perfect load balancing and automatic scaling of the ERP deployment to handle millions of users."
"The most valuable feature is that it's easy to use."
"Job data is a valuable feature."
"Its user interface is impressive."
"PeopleSoft FSCM provides for order management, SCM, human capital management, and CRM, making it a comprehensive ERP system compared to others."
"It's very fully featured. It has more features and more configurability than SAP."
"It is a complete HCM suite from hire to retire that streamlines business requirements."
"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."
"The performance management system is really good."
"It is a time-saving solution, saving a lot of time for our clients by eliminating manual errors in salary calculations and removing the need for a help desk team through its chatbot that instantly handles employee queries about payslips, leave balance, and holidays."
"In general, the solution is very flexible and can be configured in multiple ways."
"Payroll processing is very easy. SQL rules can be attached to any pay elements."
"Once we implemented this solution, it was customizable for our needs and this has been the most valuable aspect of this solution."
 

Cons

"Tools and UI could be enhanced."
"Initial setup can be complex without training or use of consultants."
"I think the inventory part it should be simplified. There is the GR, or good receipt note, which is the time that the materials comes in, and the work days, etc. There is a lot of shuffling through pages, which creates a lot of problems for our users. They don't know which page to go to, where to create a GR, or where to create a stock entry. In other words, all the information is very daunting. It's very easy for people to understand and get a better clarity over it."
"We struggle with release notes."
"One of the areas that could improve is the capability of utilizing mobile for some of the self-service activities that are missing. They are running on the older platform. What is happening is people are focusing on the cloud. PeopleSoft is a good provider and should into the cloud. That could be an advantage for them. Customers would not have to go find another solution that is a completely different platform that has different functionality altogether."
"One aspect where PeopleSoft could see improvement is in its level of customization."
"Areas that need improvement are the add-ons to the fluid pages and additional features in SCM and finance, both functionally and technically."
"It would be nice if it became even more declarative in its development."
"The entire UI/UX of the solution can be improved drastically."
"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 talent management and performance appraisal modules could use some improvement."
"There were so many bugs in the older releases."
"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."
"Ramco could be a bit faster and offer more use cases. A prime aim is to get analytics and this is lacking in Ramco. This lack of reporting is one of the reasons we are moving away from using Ramco."
"They can improve the configuration time because it takes more time than other products to configure the system."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Mostly yearly payments are to be made toward licensing costs. It is not much of an expensive solution."
"The main issue we have with the solution is that it is very expensive."
"The solution is priced per module."
"This solution offers annual licensing. We pay per user."
"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."
"We are a University and the cost and license are negotiated privately."
"I would consider this to be an expensive product, but the quality justifies it."
"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."
"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."
