Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Stability-wise, it is a good tool."
"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."
"The PeopleSoft interface is very good."
"Job data is a valuable feature."
"I often say that PeopleSoft's greatest feature is how customizable it is."
"I would rate scalability a nine out of ten."
"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."
"PeopleSoft is scalable."
"The solution is quite scalable."
"The product connects to every software."
"It gives us full control over each change, to the level of the individual field in a master record, including certificates."
"The valuable feature of SAP ERP is that everything is connected and under one roof, creating a unified system."
"The features are very useful for finance."
"I like that SAP ERP is very robust and stable."
"The solution is scalable."
"The system can be integrated with other SAP functionalities - such as finance, production, sales, marketing, HR, et cetera, and can also be customized to become a model that's specifically designed for my business. That's the solution's most valuable aspect."
"Services that need improvement include PeopleSoft Query, Pivot Grids, and PeopleSoft Test Framework."
"I would like to see a better UI."
"This solution could be improved by lowering the cost of support."
"Parsing of CVs is productive but accuracy can be improved."
"The solution's initial setup is not straightforward."
"PeopleSoft can improve by having proper connectors. It's very difficult to change some interfaces with the other systems."
"The product was too complicated when it came to navigating through multiple places and the search filters weren't great."
"The area that could be improved is the upgrade process, it's not the easiest. Oracle stopped supporting our version. So we have to move either to the cloud or work in a non-supported situation. That was certainly a disadvantage. That's also the reason why we decided not to stay with Oracle. Now we are moving to SAP."
"The service could be more user-friendly in the area of transition codes."
"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."
"If big companies are going for SAP and they would like to install it, they should know that it still needs time. Implementation will cost a lot of money."
"SAP ERP's initial setup phase needs to be simplified."
"I do not have any notes for improvements."
"Poor ergonomics."
"Although you can use SAP as a Warehouse Management System, and you don’t need any other program for that purpose, it is not enough as a Transportation Management System. You need another program which is integrated with SAP."
"In general, a user should attend training before they can use this platform. There's definitely a learning curve. As a new user or employee, there may be some difficulty with onboarding."
