"The most valuable feature of SAP S/4HANA is the innovational process. We are able to receive more efficiency or accuracy than previous versions."

"The scalability is excellent, especially on cloud deployment models."
"The key modules that I find most valuable are material management (MM), financial accounting and controlling (FICO), and human resources (HR)."
"SAP S4HANA is a stable solution."
"The scalability has been good."
"The finance solution and procurement functionalities are good."
"The implementation of PeopleSoft is quite complex and is not as easy as other cloud products such as SuccessFactor or Workday."
"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."
"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."
"An area for improvement would be that it's quite difficult to learn how to use this product, and the documentation provided isn't helpful in giving you practical advice."

"The whole systematic flow of any query raised to HR should be improved."
"Global payroll could be easier to use."
"PeopleSoft can improve by having proper connectors. It's very difficult to change some interfaces with the other systems."
"There are some problems with the support provided for the solution, so it is not quite easy. It takes some time for them to offer us support."
"The initial setup could be better. They can make the process a little easier. The functions that we require will be available in the next release. We specifically need a new model, and I think we have some versions to implement. I already read on the SAP website that some functionalities we are waiting for are available in this new version."
"Maybe its user interface and reporting can be improved across the board, but it is manageable."
"The user interface should be much more convenient and user-friendly."
"Every year, when a new version is released, it comes with a very thick booklet of 300 or 400 pages and it is a little difficult to comprehend."
"The migration to SAP S/4HANA is hard."
"Starting out on the solution can be a bit complex and difficult."
"The solution could improve by making customization easier. The on-premise version is a lot more flexible."
