We performed a comparison between Oracle Taleo and SAP HCM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Benefits Administration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Performance and goal management are good to have, based on certain client requirements where the user base isn't too large, but the most workable domain of Taleo is the recruiting module."
"Good integration capabilities and extensibility."
"The solution offers good benefits for administrators."
"The Talent Acquisition and Headhunting features are good."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"The stability of the solution is good."
"It is easy to use. Requisition management and pre-screening are the two most valuable features."
"It has the best data management features."
"We have features such as ABKRS based on the client's requirement, tariff and TMSTA, and so on."
"The setup was straightforward."
"The stability of the solution is good."
"SAP HCM can handle a large number of employees. We can easily process payrolls and check the arrangements, and the client can also check the performance of the employees. Additionally, it has some advanced features."
"SAP HCM has a good performance."
"It's very suitable for large, multi-geography companies but also very suitable for medium companies with multi-geography operations."
"The tool's best feature is SAP SuccessFactors."
"Lacks some systems that we need."
"It would be ideal if we could integrate the solution with Olympia. It would be helpful if we could add another support desk for an IT person. It would be great if the product was more interdisciplinary and could include IT."
"There are always going to be little caveats here and there that you might not have known about as far as changes are concerned, however, it's not business-oriented to the point where the business shuts down."
"In terms of Oracle Taleo as a product, there are a lot of things which can be developed; most feedback which I have heard from customers is about the dashboard and the home page, both of which are quite basic."
"The bulk recruitment feature does not work well."
"The pricing could be improved."
"I don't see very valuable features in this product because it has an old way of interpreting ATS. It should be more flexible in managing datasets and data searches. The screening data is a long process in Taleo."
"I would like it to move more towards a single data space, a single data source. SAP as a platform relies on multiple data sources because traditionally, it's been bolted together by the acquisition of other products rather than a single database. That's why there are lots of points of failure and lots of required points of integration. They need a single integration point."
"Reports need to be added on the time management side."
"The implementation of the solution can be a bit difficult. They should make it easier. If it could be as simple as the SuccessFactors implementation that would be ideal."
"It needs a lot of end user training as it is not intuitive at all."
"The extensibility of the integration could be improved."
"SAP HCM cannot integrate with other third-party applications. One of the drawbacks we encounter with SAP HCM, specifically in payroll management, is the limitation regarding changing payroll areas within the same month. For instance, if an employee transitions from staff to non-staff status during the month, we face difficulties because the system doesn't allow us to change the payroll."
"The solution is rather expensive."
"The organizational structure visualization could be improved in future releases. The solution has a very poor interface."
