"PeopleSoft is scalable."
"It's great for helping users deal with their supply chain."
"The customizations allow us to come up with a lot of complex labor rules. In the Philippines, there's a lot of different kinds of rules you need to be in compliance with. The solution offers up a lot of flexibility and customization that is perfect for our region's requirements."
"In general, this solution is user friendly and also performs well. There are two types of forms. One is a standardized form, which you can define things into. The other, you can customize so more repetition can be done in an even manner. That way, it can be designed for what the public or user actually wants. It's not very tough for any person, or layman to understand exactly what the screen requires one to do."
"I'd like PeopleSoft to be like on the cloud and more mobile-friendly. If I try to access it from a cell phone, it's a bit difficult, so it would be great if PeopleSoft could improve these features."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I like the speed of the processing and how easy it is to use."
"The accounting module's record and report process is closely integrated with almost every other process."
"Their tech support is always good."
"The most significant elements of this solution are the ability to create a virtual product, a service product, and delivery."
"Overall the solution is very good in the industry."
"SAP is a very process controlled application. It does not allow users to manage the data. Once the initial process is set, it works smoothly."
"SAP ERP provides the perfect database and options for additional production. It's also good for finance analytics, production drill-down, and other types of analysis."
"It integrates everything into one process."
"SAP ERP has a good user interface with a lot of functionalities and good interface options."
"The API integration could be better."
"If there is another release, they should look at going to mobile computing to stay competitive."
"The solution's initial setup is not straightforward."
"The learning and development side of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The whole systematic flow of any query raised to HR should be improved."
"One aspect where PeopleSoft could see improvement is in its level of customization."
"I would like to see better support, bug fixing, and documentation."
"In my opinion, it needs more performance, maybe something technical related, because it's very slow for us and even small activities take a while."
"Pricing could be improved for preferred customers."
"They need to improve a few processes, including transformation, intelligence, governance, modeling, etc."
"It could be more flexible, and the company should be able to adapt the system. Not the other way around. It's very rigid and difficult to change. Reporting could also be better."
"I would like to see more integration with other partners. Some of our customers already use specific or in-house applications for their business processes. They do not want to replace those applications."
"SAP ERP could improve by having better integration with other platforms."
"When evaluating the current version I am using now, the SAP GUI is old-style and needs to be replaced with something more modern and easy to use. However, the SAP GUI is very optimized for connection networks and is extremely good. Many people would like to have a WebGUI or something else to have access in a different way. Additionally, there could be some drag and drop functionality added because these features are normally in any website that this solution does not have."
"Functionality could be improved."
"It could always be cheaper. There is no doubt about it."
