Access PeopleHR vs. SAP SuccessFactors

It's simple to use even for non-technical employees, making it very simple to install even for a workforce that hasn't grown up in the digital age, and for that People HR is the best option to fit in. I haven't got in any situation yet where I see People HR as less appropriate except Applications Tracking Systems as I have never worked on that module much.

For compensation cycle management, it is really good. You should use it for servicing this need within your company with an easy standardized process. We took a look at workday, but this gives a lot less functionality for a similar price. Also, the localization options are there for nearly every country in the world.

• Complex reporting is made easy through the reporting capabilities of the system. We have been using reports for the past year and absolutely trust the accuracy of the data produced. The reports are generated easily through the system and can be exported into an editable Excel spreadsheet which is great.
• The self-service of data is great for freeing up HR time. Employees can update their personal information themselves quickly and easily.
• The App is a great feature of People HR. A large proportion of our employees work in our warehouse and as such don't have their own computer at work. The app allows those employees easy access to the system on the go.

• Streamlined access to HR data which can be used for deriving insights using SAP Analytics Cloud
• End to end and seamless integration with SAP eco system and integration with other Microsoft solutions
• Great learning experience for employees on SAP SuccessFactors platform

• The applicant tracking system still has room for improvement with integrating with external job boards like Indeed / Jobsite.co.uk / Directgov etc.
• There is an option for creating forms with signatures but it doesn't allow for comments/feedback/changes/versions.

• Like many SAAS solutions, SuccessFactors sometimes loads very slowly, crashes, hangs
• Sometimes it Takes Long Time to Create Forms/Records ('Forms' could be anything you are creating)
• Although we can connect SuccessFactors to SAP Analytics Cloud, the standard content from SAP is very basic and not much useful, we have to develop more useful custom Dashboards that visualize the true essence of Analytics.

We have put a vast amount of time and effort into our installation- and there is more work to be done, but the system has a lot of benefits that we plan to maximize and optimize in order to generate the greatest value for everyone involved

For Key users, it is not really friendly. There are lot of hidden buttons which makes the experience difficult. For end user, it is quite easy.

SAP SuccessFactors is absolutely available when we needed, not a lot of downtime.

It is pretty slow in some cases, and annoying to admins.

SuccessFactors Employee Central gets a middle of the road rating from me because of the things it does really well - Training. It falls short with the objectives cascade and visibility amongst my reports. That's what brings it down to a 5. Objectives need to be clear and concise in order to gain buy-in from your reports, and SuccessFactors muddies that by poor delineation between cascaded attributes and my report's objectives. The whole objectives cascade can be reworked.

Some significant problems were hard to resolve and took a lot of time for our IT team, leaving us with no alternative.

People HR is easy to use, you don't actually need any training for that. The programme and functionality are excellent, and the support provided by Advisors when you click the help button to speak with them is always excellent. They are quick to respond to any questions and provide excellent customer service.

We believe that all top global providers that complete with SAP, are in the same level in terms of the main functionalities for supporting HR processes. SAP seemed to be more robust on each process, and more consistent when considering best practices applied to their modules. It may be hard to use sometimes, but it certainly has good answers to support a wide variety of scenarios and specific business needs
