Has a dedicated support team that made it easy to monitor payrolls over a large region
I used ADP Streamline for payrolls for all the EMEA countries. The payroll was run in the countries with local ADP offerings or with a local ADP partner. We coordinated those payrolls all over Europe. Using ADP Streamline, we uploaded all the payrolls, which were downloaded by the ADP local or the…

Helps automate financial management processes, reducing reliance on manual spreadsheets and allows for customization
In general, as well as specifically with PeopleSoft, ERP systems have replaced or reduced the overreliance on spreadsheets in financial applications ad hoc database functionality in HR. The constraints of uploading spreadsheets for journal entries can be a headache and ultimately, ERP systems force users to rethink their approach, both in terms of spreadsheet format and reliance. PeopleSoft helps automate much of the heavy lifting, reducing the reliance on spreadsheets. Moreover, PeopleSoft has been beneficial for the HR and financial departments in two ways. The ability to segregate positions and the underlying structure is beneficial for HR. Additionally, the payroll features, including the ability to separate payroll processing for different regions and then consolidate everything for final reporting (balance sheet, income statement), are valuable for both departments.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The advantage was that ADP Streamline was inherently designed to serve as a marketing engine for the company."
"The most valuable feature was that everything was in one system."
"They are very strong in terms of having a central regional system. A regional person can see and monitor the calendar for each different country."
"I like the reporting feature as it allows me to generate reports independently without relying on a payroll consultant."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its stability."
"The most valuable feature is that it's easy to use."
"I would rate scalability a nine out of ten."
"Its user interface is impressive."
"Job data is a valuable feature."
"PeopleSoft is easy to understand, where any end user that is logged in can easily navigate through the menus."
"PeopleSoft is an amazing solution. Its users can have total control of the system, including PeopleCode, Application Engine and Component Interface, along with many other tools delivered by PeopleSoft."
"The most valuable feature for us is the integration between the HR Payroll and Financials modules"
 

Cons

"I think there is a need for a deeper level of comprehension."
"They could improve the service relationship manager (SRM), because they have an SRM which is not familiar with Simple."
"The UI could be improved to be a bit more modern or trendy because it looks old-fashioned compared to other systems."
"Having more clear guidance on design and training would be beneficial."
"I would like for the initial rollout process to be completed faster so that it can be implemented in a more efficient manner."
"PeopleSoft can improve by having proper connectors. It's very difficult to change some interfaces with the other systems."
"Response time takes very long and requires a person to be awake night and day to benefit from it."
"Often support just asks people to install a lot of upgrades. Sometimes they don't really give you clear details as to why you need to upgrade. They just say, "You need to upgrade this because there's a newer image, etc". They never really give you the reason underlying why you are having errors."
"My developers want to use more HTML instead of the specialized tool, PeopleTools because, they say, it's better from a user perspective."
"The solution's initial setup is not straightforward."
"This solution could be improved by lowering the cost of support."
"There could be more adaptability of the system."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our company had a standardized pricing model based on the number of employees."
"The amount we pay is not low, and it is not high. It is average."
"I would consider this to be an expensive product, but the quality justifies it."
"This solution offers annual licensing. We pay per user."
"PeopleSoft has a yearly maintenance fee."
"We are a University and the cost and license are negotiated privately."
"I don't know if they are still providing licenses or if they have suspending licenses."
"The main issue we have with the solution is that it is very expensive."
"There are no additional costs for licensing."
"Mostly yearly payments are to be made toward licensing costs. It is not much of an expensive solution."
