We have moved our process to Paylocity, which is our payroll vendor. Although Paylocity does not offer as much customization as STS did, it is much easier to use and fits the bill for us.

I don't think it stacks up that great. I've used the program almost 4 years now and aside from a redesign to the Home Page, it's still the same program underneath the hood. For example, the Goals now appear as gauges rather than written text, but when you click on the goal - it …

I think Saba TalentSpace suits small to mid-size organizations looking for a tool to start out with. The product is less overwhelming then some of the major players out there and the price is very competitive. The performance tool is its star player but the LMS is competent …

Saba was the only company that had all the performance management features we needed. We also like the appraisal process within Saba as we can track where the process is. Also it is helpful that all the performance management elements are housed in one system. Previously we had …

Halogen stacks up against Paycom because it is a global solution. Paycom is only used for the U.S. because it is a payroll system that cannot be extended globally.

I have searched other systems and viewed other demos. Every other system has some negatives. The main questions are always: does the area we require exist and at what cost? We have most of what is needed with Halogen. However, as other companies have started to advance in their …

Better than ADP, not quite at the level of Workday. However Workday does not accommodate smaller organizations nor provide as strong of an implementation team. ADP doesn't come close to either system.

Halogen is generally better at the appraisal process and allows for goal-setting. It's also truly a global system, where ADP isn't.

I have used other systems in the past and I like that Halogen provides everything in one space. I would like to see a more developed way to report training, not in the LMS, but I think that for the most part that Halogen is a robust system that is superior to its competition.

We have had them for a long time. When it came time to review we considered the long term relationship and being a unique business, how they already understood us.

I think it's a good platform for tracking and monitoring goals, feedback, and development. We don't use the 1:1 meeting feature, however, I can see how that would be valuable for many organizations. I do like that it is very customizable, however, that also presents problems in that sometimes forms and/or processes can be a bit challenging to create easily and quickly.
1:1 agendas are easy to create, add comments to and prompt excellent conversation flow on the topics that truly matter to the manager and the employee.
The system can be easily customized to reflect your company's language and culture. We did this in several areas of the platform (goals, development, learning), and it made a world of difference in the understanding and adaptation of our users. One example is that in each learning module, we added 3 questions in the course description so that managers would be automatically prompted to ask to follow up / learning transfer questions when their employees enroll and take a learning course.
Halogen support is outstanding. Any question I have had has been answered upon the first contact or within 24 hours.

My organization does not use all of the functions/modules that Halogen offers, but I find that those modules still appear on the Halogen main page. I think a great area for improvement is to hide these functions so as not to confuse employees.

Implementing a new system and process company wide is never an easy task. We moved so quickly in such a short period of time that we were able to learn quickly but also have the opportunity to improve the Halogen experience. We will more than likely will renew our use of Halogen as we already are seeing a small impact which hopefully in the long run will lead to a greater impact

Halogen is very intuitive and provides very clean work-space ... lots of white space and modern layouts. There is more than one way to accomplish your action, too!
We only purchased the appraisal module and without the other modules offered, you are really limited in what you can do and the process becomes much more involved with needing to maintain information across multiple platforms. We found that they charge for everything and call it "consulting." We poured so much money and time into a system that was just overkill for what we really needed.

We are able to get our reviews done in a quicker amount of time. Instead of 4-8 weeks we were able to get it done under a month.
Halogen has gotten better at given us a heads up when the system will be down. Most patches are done overnight so we can at least verify it was done, but their success rate of a patch not breaking something is not at 99%. So we do lose productivity when the system is down.
The tool is easier to do so there are fewer questions from users outside the core team.
