"I would rate scalability a nine out of ten.""It is a customizable product. We can customize it based on our needs, which is one of the features that I like about PeopleSoft.

You can also configure Chart of Accounts for all performance insights.""Stability-wise, it is a good tool.""This solution integrates very well with other products which is helpful.""The customizations allow us to come up with a lot of complex labor rules. In the Philippines, there's a lot of different kinds of rules you need to be in compliance with. The solution offers up a lot of flexibility and customization that is perfect for our region's requirements.""All the features of the solution are integral to the functionality. Additionally, the navigation customization is beneficial.""I would recommend the solution.

Cons
"An area of improvement could be around automation and predictability.""The licensing of the solution should be adjusted. The policies aren't ideal. They should make it easier to understand. Right now, it's too confusing."

More Microsoft Dynamics SL Cons →

"I would like to see it become available again in Mexico.""I would like to see a better UI.""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.""PeopleSoft can improve by having proper connectors. It's very difficult to change some interfaces with the other systems.""In my opinion, it needs more performance, maybe something technical related, because it's very slow for us and even small activities take a while.""Stability is an area where the solution lacks and needs to be improved.""I would like for the initial rollout process to be completed faster so that it can be implemented in a more efficient manner."
