Featured Reviews

Henrik Aminoff - PeerSpot reviewer
A tool to manage HR master data in a single system that needs to improve on the API front
As a developer, I can say that some of Sympa HR's back-end functionalities, like the API systems, aren't fully fledged or modern enough, a downside of which Sympa is aware. My previous company had some kind of relationship with Sympa, and I used to attend meetings with Sympa's development teams regarding Sympa HR's API integrations in and out.
Prashant Shetty - PeerSpot reviewer
A tool to help businesses maintain records of the hire-to-retire process of employees
Our company also uses Workday HR Talent Management and Software Talent Management, which help in performance management and succession planning. My company uses Workday Learning to allow employees to explore various areas where they can learn something via training sessions. Before the use of Workday Human Capital Management in our organization, we used to use PeopleSoft. As PeopleSoft did not meet our organization's criteria regarding the need for a product that can be deployed at a global level, we chose Workday for HR-related activities and ADP Global Payroll.

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution’s pricing is better than SAP SuccessFactors."
"Each module comes with an additional cost. It operates on a mid-price model. So, there is an additional payment for each module needed. The solution might be costlier for smaller companies, making it more suitable for mid to large-sized enterprises."
