Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable features of Meta4 are payroll and resource recruitment. However, all of the features in the human resource system are useful.""The performance appraisal is the most valuable feature.""The most valuable feature of this solution is the payment engine.""The most valuable feature is you can customize every type of payroll calculation that you have.""The support team were friendly and work in a systematic way. When contacting support you are able to add a level of priority to your case which is always respected by their team.""Performance appraisal might be the most valuable feature for us.""The solution has a great payroll engine.""The tool provides a lot of options."

"I guess I would say maybe that it is a more robust system.""The reporting features are also very valuable because, on top of 300+ reports available on the system, you can also customize quite a number of reports.""The report builder and dashboard builder are very, very good.""The solution's initial setup was straightforward.""The most valuable feature of Sage People is the integration with our payroll system.""Compared to the other system that we were using, I think Sage is more friendly. As an administrator, Sage's dashboard is visually friendly and many tasks are easier to accomplish. Another feature that we've liked since we started using Sage is the reporting. With the other system, we needed to configure a lot of things manually when it came to reporting, but with Sage the reporting tasks are much simpler.""Sage makes all the information accessible, like pulling a file because an employee needs something ASAP. It's all in the system. It's easy to find old reports if I need them for payroll purposes. It might take days to do some of this work by hand.""The solution provides the ability to trace back records, is reliable, makes life easy, and is secure."

Cons
"The HR portal, training model, and development career model could all use improvement. Stability and scalability should be improved as well.""The solution is a little bit slow.""training and performance could be improved.""I would like to have recruitment and acquisition features added to this solution.""The user interface could be improved and the maintenance is complex when it comes to upgrades.""The HR portal, training model, and the development career model all need improvement.""Meta4 could improve by allowing users to manage things by themself.""In future releases, it would be useful to see reporting lines of all the team members in our business to understand who reports to whom."

More Cegid Cons →

"Right now, Sage doesn't seem to have what we are looking for when it comes to managing HR tickets. In my previous experiences with other HR software, we had to buy another solution to obtain this functionality, and it would be a great feature for Sage to consider adding. For an HR system, Sage would do very well to include it.""In my opinion, the performance management module of this system could use improvement as it falls behind compared to other specialized performance management platforms.""There were a couple of things that we wanted to customize, but we couldn’t do it ourselves.""Its technical support could have been better.""If Sage People were to become a fully cloud-based solution, it could lead to significant improvements. With the COVID pandemic highlighting the benefits of remote work, a complete shift to cloud-based functionality would be a welcome development for users.""The integration with our payroll system could improve. However, it is managed by another company.""Its stability could be better.""The automation in Sage People could improve. The solution is the best used for data storage but the automation could be better to have more functionality."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Meta4 requires annual maintenance that needs to be paid for."
  • "From a cost perspective, I think this is a well-balanced option."
  • More Cegid Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "I believe we pay licensing on a yearly basis, but I can't comment on the total amount that we pay on licensing."
  • "From an SME standpoint, I wouldn't necessarily describe it as expensive. However, for the average startup, it may not be affordable since our current annual expenditure on the system, which supports approximately 210-220 users, amounts to approximately £15,000 to £18,000."
  • "The cost of Sage People varies depending on the financial resources of the organization. While it may be affordable for middle-level companies, it may be more challenging for young companies to bear the cost."
  • "There is other software on the market that can do similar functions to Sage People that could be better in price. Some solution allows you to do your payroll processes by month or by the process. Small companies could benefit by using another solution."
  • "We have to purchase the solution's license to use it."
  • "Its cost is moderate for a multi-group licensing model."
  • "The price of the solution is reasonable."
  • "The pricing is reasonable."
