We performed a comparison between Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and PeopleSoft based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We like the manufacturing and case management modules."
"Microsoft Dynamics NAV is brilliant and it's a different segment when comparing it with Dynamics AX. Dynamics AX is a larger product with much more features and it's aimed at a different segment of the market."
"The product is customizable so we can tune it according to our requirements."
"The selling feature is the most valuable."
"It is a scalable solution. There are more than 5,000 end users in my organization."
"It's quite useful for our production line, and it's easy to configure to our requirements."
"Microsoft Dynamics NAV is good for smaller-sized companies."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"The solution is easy to scale, expand and make bigger."
"The recruiting is most valuable. It saves time in having easy and fast applicants tracking as well as candidates' contact plus pipeline management."
"I use the reporting feature occasionally to check for potential improvements in timesheets. We have integrated it with Power BI."
"PeopleSoft is resilient and has the flexibility for us to customize it."
"PeopleSoft is mostly used for payroll and core HR functionality. Some customers use it for its finance module."
"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."
"We use a lot of typical cases from PeopleSoft, for example, solutions for security, business performance, monitoring processes, and a lot of training."
"The breadcrumb approach to navigation in PeopleSoft is good. nVision is also a good supplement."
"As our company grew we had to switch from Microsoft Dynamics NAV to a solution that was suited for larger-sized companies."
"Some of the control aspects such as auditing can definitely be improved. For example, auditing is not very easy, and the user permissions are complicated."
"Since it's complex for a layperson user to understand the solution, it would be better if the solution provided some training resources."
"For a big company like us with millions of transactions, the scalability isn't enough."
"In the next release, I would like to see a quality check module - Navision doesn't have one, and the industry very much requires it."
"Customization and costs could be improved."
"Microsoft Dynamics NAV could improve the reporting."
"Microsoft Dynamics NAV could be improved in terms of exporting income statements and balance sheets. Currently, there is a feature, but you can only have the last three years. I spent some time trying to improve the KPI portion that exports the data, that already calculates the sub forms or subtotals, but they weren't able to break that up into different dimensions. They've now managed to crowd the separate table and you can export that, but it's only for the last three years. So, they could improve this solution by getting the chart of accounts or the account schedules to be exported, where you can go further than just three years with it."
"Services that need improvement include PeopleSoft Query, Pivot Grids, and PeopleSoft Test Framework."
"I would like to see it become available again in Mexico."
"One aspect where PeopleSoft could see improvement is in its level of customization."
"This solution could be improved by lowering the cost of support."
"PeopleSoft could improve by being more user-friendly. It's somewhat awkward to navigate."
"Areas that need improvement are the add-ons to the fluid pages and additional features in SCM and finance, both functionally and technically."
"Initial setup can be complex without training or use of consultants."
"We have already deployed it and we have had it for several years but we are switching to a modern HCM SaaS cloud product."
