We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 Chart of Accounts for all performance insights.""PeopleSoft is scalable.""PeopleSoft is a good core system. 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.""It is a very stable ERP solution. It is also supported on Oracle Cloud and provides extensive features.""It's great for helping users deal with their supply chain.""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.""It's very fully featured. It has more features and more configurability than SAP.""The integration between Human Capital Management (HCM) and PeopleSoft is an important feature."

More PeopleSoft Pros →

"It has the capability of reporting. We, as a business team, found it good. In fact, we migrated to PeopleStrong essentially because of its reporting feature.""The UI and UX are fantastic.""PeopleStrong Alt is flexible because it allows customization and the user's experience is very good.""The product has valuable flexibility for customization, user interface, and search capabilities.""Some of the most valuable features are the onboarding experience of new employees, the employee service portal, and the entire performance management system.""The mobile responsiveness is strong.""The hiring process is good. It will create a process-oriented procedure in terms of hiring, promotion, the movement of people, and other related HR tasks."

More PeopleStrong Pros →

"The report builder and dashboard builder are very, very good.""The solution provides the ability to trace back records, is reliable, makes life easy, and is secure.""Without a doubt, the most valuable aspect of this solution is the reports, as it offers endless possibilities for report customization. You can easily build any report you can imagine with this system.""Compared to the other system that we were using, I think Sage is more friendly. As an administrator, Sage's dashboard is visually friendly and many tasks are easier to accomplish. Another feature that we've liked since we started using Sage is the reporting. With the other system, we needed to configure a lot of things manually when it came to reporting, but with Sage the reporting tasks are much simpler.""The most valuable features of Sage People are the reports that are useful for decision-making and the API that can be integrated well. Additionally, the solution can be accessed from mobile devices onto the cloud.""The most valuable feature of Sage People is the integration with our payroll system.""I guess I would say maybe that it is a more robust system.""The solution's initial setup was straightforward."

Cons
"Scalability is not there in PeopleSoft. Its performance and resilience are also very bad. When you're trying to stretch it, it breaks. It is not resilient. It is also not stable. It is stable as far as data is concerned, but the infrastructure is not stable.""I would like to see it become available again in Mexico.""The whole systematic flow of any query raised to HR should be improved.""The API integration could be better.""Global payroll could be easier to use.""The solution could improve by offering PeopleSoft site licenses. Currently, Oracle is pushing for everyone to transition to the cloud, but clients are discontent with this approach. Offering new PeopleSoft site licenses would be the most beneficial for our clients.""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.""Parsing of CVs is productive but accuracy can be improved."

More PeopleSoft Cons →

"They could improve talent management capabilities.""Sometimes, we feel that we should have an API-based integration aspect.""It would be helpful if you could work offline because sometimes, we have problems with internet connectivity.""They had challenges getting the performance management system up and integrated with our systems.""They could include a sort of collaborative platform where employees are able to work together with a chat mechanism like WhatsApp and video chat.""The global scalability and support could improve.""The solution's workflow can improve by adding more customization at the organizational level."

More PeopleStrong Cons →

"The user interface is not great.""Right now, Sage doesn't seem to have what we are looking for when it comes to managing HR tickets. In my previous experiences with other HR software, we had to buy another solution to obtain this functionality, and it would be a great feature for Sage to consider adding. For an HR system, Sage would do very well to include it.""The automation in Sage People could improve. The solution is the best used for data storage but the automation could be better to have more functionality.""In my opinion, the performance management module of this system could use improvement as it falls behind compared to other specialized performance management platforms.""The integration with our payroll system could improve. However, it is managed by another company.""The budget module does not work. Sage People need to maybe make it more user-friendly.""If Sage People were to become a fully cloud-based solution, it could lead to significant improvements. With the COVID pandemic highlighting the benefits of remote work, a complete shift to cloud-based functionality would be a welcome development for users.""Its technical support could have been better."
