Find out what your peers are saying about Workday, Oracle, SAP and others in Benefits Administration."My favorite feature is payroll administration, which has been awesome. You can import as many batches as you want to and run them synchronously or asynchronously. Since I work in a finance company with commissions, bonuses, and distribution, it's great to be able to do that. I can upload multiple things. Also, I can upload different sets of commission lists into the same payroll batch and upload the time card imports and overtime imports if I want to and separate them. I can create multiple batches around an individual or one one set of audit backing, and then I can approve them or leave them open. The way that Paylocity has set up their payroll system is really good and saves us a lot of time. It's very specific and helpful."
"PeopleSoft allows you to schedule upgrades and inform users beforehand. This gives your IT team time to manage the implementation and minimize disruption."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its stability."

"PeopleSoft has been fairly reliable for us. We haven't had any issues with stability."

"Some of the Paylocity systems are limited. For example, I can't create custom offer letters. I can create generic offer letters with a logo, but I can't edit them or create sections. It does not read like a MS Word document and needs to be more robust."
"Having applications which provide more enhanced features and user-friendly elements."
"The learning and development side of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The area that could be improved is the upgrade process, it's not the easiest. Oracle stopped supporting our version. So we have to move either to the cloud or work in a non-supported situation. That was certainly a disadvantage. That's also the reason why we decided not to stay with Oracle. Now we are moving to SAP."
"The API integration could be better."
"Parsing of CVs is productive but accuracy can be improved."
"On the other hand, the more recent push for standardization precludes customized approaches to certain industry requirements."
"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."
"I would like to see improvement in the UI."
