A cloud-oriented HRMS that needs to be more flexible and improve offline support
We use ZingHR as a human resource management system. It helps us manage recruitment, generate offer letters, and maintain employee database and attendance.  The solution is a cloud HRMS, which makes it a self-sufficient model. You can do a lot of things without taking anybody's help.  ZingHR is…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user interface is the solution's most valuable feature. It makes it easy for us to use."
"They provide the most stable and powerful technology in the areas of human resources, information systems, and ERP."
"We have features such as ABKRS based on the client's requirement, tariff and TMSTA, and so on."
"Technical support is excellent."
"The feature I like most in SAP HCM is its effectiveness for talent management."
"The integration provided by SAP between different modules is very good."
"The integration between the different models like personnel administration, work management, payroll, and time management are the most valuable and key features."
"The technical support is quite good."
"The solution is a cloud HRMS, which makes it a self-sufficient model. You can do a lot of things without taking anybody's help."
"The most valuable feature of ZingHR is the data bulk uploading and downloading."
 

Cons

"Reports need to be added on the time management side."
"We are able to optimize a lot of processes but there is always room for improvement."
"SAP is not ready to sell the license on time and delays the progress of projects. It's better to work with a competitor like Oracle. Those that are selling the product just go through powerpoints and don't have the knowledge necessary to sell. They can't answer any questions."
"The talent modules are lacking in HCM, so I would recommend switching to SuccessFactors for talent management, but HCM excels at time management and payroll."
"There are already success factors for the cloud solution which cannot be integrated into S/4 HANA."
"The limitation of HCM compared to new-era human capital management solutions is the cost."
"SAP HCM has many different channels for communication with the consultants which makes it complex. There are delays when there is a problem."
"This solution needs to be more configurable and user-friendly."
"ZingHR could improve by giving administration users from the front end the ability to make corrections. I am having to do the bulk corrections from an Excel upload from the system."
"ZingHR is not flexible and needs to improve offline support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SAP is expensive, but if you're using the product, then the expensive product becomes inexpensive. Considering its performance and features, I find it quite reasonable."
"Be careful and guard against future changes in licensing."
"HCM is cheaper than SuccessFactors."
"The product is expensive."
"The pricing is around the middle, at a five out of ten. But it depends on the number of licenses. More licenses mean lower per-user costs. You need to understand how to play the volume game and the growth."
"In my view, this product is a waste of money for SMB because there are much better products available and licensing is an issue."
"You pay per license. There not any costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"I believe HCM is a little expensive, but I don't know the exact price because I'm involved with the sales team. However, I think the price must be reasonable because many organizations are migrating their current ERPs to SAP. It's excellent software, and the price is competitive."
"ZingHR is a less expensive solution than others, such as SAP SuccessFactors."
"ZingHR is not expensive."
