We performed a comparison between Cornerstone Learning and SAP SuccessFactors based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Talent Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Its user-friendly interface is most valuable. You can configure your welcome page and design it the way you want on your own."
"Stability and scalability are good. They have four releases every year of which learning is a big portion of that. They're constantly refining and defining and they're embedding a lot of new technology into it all the time."
"It is a complete suite of solutions and features. Compared to other solutions which are more niche solutions, which may be as good as Cornerstone or even better in certain parts of it, like discerning user experience. You will not find another solution that has the same completeness of features in all different areas of learning."
"What I like the most about Cornerstone is that it is agile. It has good built-in processes and the implementation is rapid."
"The most valuable feature of Cornerstone Learning is the reporting and learner transcripts."
"The Meeting feature is similar to a conference call facility that can be used for virtual meetings."
"It's better than the previous learning solutions we had. We liked that it was global. We liked that you don't have to be logged into the company network to be able to use it. Those were really big benefits for us."
"Cornerstone Learning's most valuable features are the keyword search, filters, and add-to-favorites option."
"It has a global database, and it is globally accessible. By using this solution, we have moved away from paper, which is a big step for us."
"The functionality and user friendliness are constantly improving."
"What I like the most is the KPI management formula."
"HR and managers can use the onboarding tool to help new employees prepare for their first day on the job, which can help them acclimate to the company culture and reduce anxiety."
"All of SuccessFactors' features are useful, but there are several modules within SuccessFactors that I find handy. You have Employee Central, which manages employee records within the system. It manages all the information about an employee, including names, addresses, account numbers, positions, org charts, etc. It also handles performance reviews and KPIs for employees within an organization. Then you have succession planning and development as well."
"There are a lot of features in SuccessFactors that HR can actually explore. We recently implemented a learning platform that employs the individual staff to actually manage their own learning."
"The interface is user-friendly. It is very simple and intuitive, so it's good."
"Flexible with a lot of good features."
"Its integration with Microsoft Teams for virtual sessions could be better"
"Cornerstone Learning could be improved with more e-learning content."
"There is a need for quite a bit of improvement. The reporting side of things definitely needs a lot of improvement. At the moment, it gives you a data dump. You have to open it up in Excel and filter out the bits that you don't want and need."
"The automated ticketing system for technical support often has a response time that is quite long, which is something that should be improved."
"The existing test functionality is really old-fashioned, basic, and limited."
"Its dashboard and analytics must be improved. Currently, we get the data, but we don't get anything from the insightfulness perspective. Analytics is where it requires a lot of work. We definitely expect some good dashboard features, which are currently lacking in this solution. From a technical perspective, they need to open access to all HTML tags. It currently doesn't support many HTML tags, which makes it challenging to create HTML pages."
"Could use more robust reporting or more flexibility and scalability around the reporting side."
"Even though the system has a number of features, design wise the user interface is a little bit complicated. It is hard for the user to navigate properly. Because the system has so many features, it has a lot of tabs and links. Sometimes, people get confused as to where to go and search."
"I don't think SuccessFactors is quite fit for use as an employee database."
"There are a few features that are missing. There are specific features on the HTM, such as telecom safety, that just isn't there. It's not a very detailed solution in that sense. However, it is maybe not expected to have those kinds of features on the surface level of the product."
"Some of the screens aren't that user-friendly, older employees especially have a hard time with it. They have some problems with it."
"The user experience could be simplified."
"SAP resources are at the high end and anything you want to change or any customization is expensive."
"There should be more connectivity with other systems."
"The GUI needs to be enhanced to be in line with the latest and complete version of the solution."
"Everything, including the provisioning dependency, should be moved to the instance, and coding should be kept to a minimum. Wherever possible, coding should be minimized, and everything should be a drag-and-drop."
