"The performance management system is really good."
"Once we implemented this solution, it was customizable for our needs and this has been the most valuable aspect of this solution."

"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."
"The product itself sometimes feels inconsistent because it comes with bugs."
"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."
"The mobile app and web page user experience could be more user friendly."
"The solution has to work a lot on financial integrations, material management and CRM modules."
"In terms of reporting, we have to rely on a consultant to do the report customization. The most important thing is to be able to do your own reporting, which it can't do. We rely so much on our consultant to customize reports for us."
"For time management, it does not have a calendar generator. For example, if you want to have a shift calendar for an entire year, you need to push the entire year's calendar into the system instead of being able to generate it using a time management pattern."
"This solution could be made easier to use by continuing to release new improvements."
"The solution needs to be updated with generative UI."
"The user interface could be modernized somehow."
"The security console should be made less complex."
"In a future release we could like to have access to asset, supply and treasury management functionalities."
