We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It's very fully featured. It has more features and more configurability than SAP.""A valuable feature is HCM.""The time system is what we get the most benefit from.""PeopleSoft is easy to understand, where any end user that is logged in can easily navigate through the menus.""Flexibility in configuration.""The most valuable feature for us is the integration between the HR Payroll and Financials modules""PeopleSoft is an amazing solution.

More PeopleSoft Pros →

"The Performance Manager, Recruitment manager, and the Payroll and HR core functionalities are the most valuable aspects of this solution."

More Sapience [EOL] Pros →

"The solution has improved our organization by helping us cut hours and lessen our labor force. It saved us probably over $100,000 in just the last couple of years.""UKG allows us to customize our home screen so that we can easily monitor important items on a daily basis.""It enables us to manage the system ourselves. We don't need an additional team to do a lot of maintenance and add the things that we want.""The employee self-service feature is most valuable. This is the restaurant industry, and they have a mobile app that allows employees to go in and manage their data. So, employees can manage direct deposit accounts, emergency contacts, and other things in the app. That's definitely the biggest benefit.""The fact that I can see the whole HR information in a single point is valuable. There is a unified view of everything, which is good. Previously, we had many different systems for each part of the information. Now, it is all centralized. It is very good.""The solution's UI is good. Also, it is very easy to use.""I like UKG's integration.""I have found the most valuable feature to be business intelligence and Cognos reporting."

More UKG Pros →

Cons
"Response time takes very long and requires a person to be awake night and day to benefit from it.""The learning and development side of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""PeopleSoft lacks integration capabilities.""I would like for the initial rollout process to be completed faster so that it can be implemented in a more efficient manner.""One of the areas that could improve is the capability of utilizing mobile for some of the self-service activities that are missing. They are running on the older platform. What is happening is people are focusing on the cloud. PeopleSoft is a good provider and should into the cloud. That could be an advantage for them. Customers would not have to go find another solution that is a completely different platform that has different functionality altogether.""It would be helpful for the end-user if the reports were customized. They would be able to select the fields while generating their reports.""PeopleSoft could improve by being more user-friendly. It's somewhat awkward to navigate.""It would be nice if it became even more declarative in its development."

More PeopleSoft Cons →

"The learning development functionalities has room for improvement."

More Sapience [EOL] Cons →

"The solution could improve by simplifying it even more core reports, such as more sample reports, more generic reports that you can edit and improve on yourself.""UKG could be a little more flexible in some areas.""One area where UKG could improve is in its ability to understand its own competency and then work hard to improve it.""Reporting is always a hurdle for any user just because it is so extensive. They provide a lot of out-of-the-box reports, but it is something that you always need to work on because you need more advanced writing of reports.""I would like to see more functionality in the next release to be able to get hours and dollars per calendar month rather than just by payroll in the Business Intelligence reports.""I would like the capability to use UKG as a single platform without the need to alternate between systems.""The solution could use better reporting with standard reports. We use the Cognos platform in BI for a lot of our reporting. However, they need to have more robust standard reporting available to their user base.""The navigation on the screen could be better. Sometimes, I have to dig a little bit deep to find what I need. Everything is there. It just needs to be a little bit smoother."

    Information Not Available
  • "I wasn't involved in the pricing part. I'm a user, and I believe it is based on the user count. One thing that is nice about Ultimate is that you can learn how to use the system without additional fees. The learning aspect is the life of a product, and the training was a huge reason why we went with Ultimate. We did have some integration costs. They were a part of the implementation because of the integrations to other systems that we included in our implementation."
  • "While I am unsure of the licensing cost itself, the total cost of implementation and licensing for a company with over 5000 employees would be around 6,00,000. So, there are additional costs beyond licensing."

    Reviews from Real Users

    PeopleSoft is a solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. Some of its major advantages are that it has a lot of functionality and is customizable.

    A Regional Director at a tech services company mentions, “The most valuable feature is that it's wide and broad and it does about everything anybody needs in a major organization from a back-office systems point of view.”

    "PeopleSoft is a good core system. It has a lot of functionality. "They frequently update the solution and recently they have added some good enhancement features for higher education. We just switched to the new fluid interface and that is working very well for us. It is very good," says another reviewer who is an HR/Pay Systems Administrator/Director at a university.


    A Senior Manager for DevOps Infrastructure at a financial services firm, explains why he finds the solution so beneficial: "It is a customizable product. We can customize it based on our needs, which is one of the features that I like about PeopleSoft. As far as financial accounting is concerned, the user interface is very good. You can also configure a Chart of Accounts for all performance insights."
