"This solution could be improved by lowering the cost of support.""One aspect where PeopleSoft could see improvement is in its level of customization.""I would like to see it become available again in Mexico.""I would like for the initial rollout process to be completed faster so that it can be implemented in a more efficient manner.""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.""The implementation of PeopleSoft is quite complex and is not as easy as other cloud products such as SuccessFactor or Workday.""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.""Parsing of CVs is productive but accuracy can be improved."

    PeopleSoft is a solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. Some of its major advantages are that it has a lot of functionality and is customizable.
