A Vendor Management System (VMS) used to find, engage, and manage a global external workforce – including temporary workers, freelancers, contractors, consultants, and service workers.
Again, I didn't specifically select the Wand system; our client selected it, and I work with it. However, I have used several VMSs as well, so I feel as though I can compare from a user perspective. Wand isn't great - I prefer Fieldglass for sure, mostly for it's simplicity. IQN…
As I mentioned, I did not specifically choose Fieldglass, as our clients made the selection. However, I can definitely compare them from a user perspective.
Fieldglass is better than WAND, Covendis, PeopleFluent, and Beeline, pretty much across the board. WAND's rate section is …
When working with a VMS or MSP I must say PRO is one of the best to use. You are able to manage multiple clients within the same portal, very user-friendly, able to go to one location for all recruitment needs, management needs, sales and accounting needs. It helps organize recruitment needs and make sure that candidates are within budget. With this program, I do not have to worry about aging reports or outstanding invoices
SAP Fieldglass seems to be well suited to contingent workforce management. When compared to other products I have experienced, it is more advanced. Extremely well suited if you have SAP Ariba and SAP (ECC/S4) due to the seamless, pre-built integration between SAP Fieldglass and these other SAP systems. We used it in a regional (North American) scope, but that was based on business decisions and not system limitations.
As compared to other VMSs out there, Wand does allow for more information to be entered. In particular, I don't like when there are little to no free-form fields in a VMS, as you cannot truly explain a candidate's experiences without free-form entry.
Notifications actually explain what is happening. Some VMSs send notifications that require you to login to see the activity. It's nice to see the info come directly to me in an email.
Usability to be improved (to allow more end users to act directly in the system)
Rate card management / Fx rate management
Documentation of the functionality (There is so much functionality available in the system, it would be great to receive more instructions how to configure).
AI usage to ensure more intuitive entries, based on past usage and other users' experience/work
Usage of the web interface it’s easy and user friendly. iOS app it’s quickly and simple, with just a foto it’s possible to store the invoice and system automatically recognize the expenses. Good integration with credit card company to and excellent functionality to assign the credit card expenses to relative invoice.
Web interface and iOS app are so simple and user friendly. The functionality that recognizes the expenses working very well. The integration with a credit card company it’s a an excellent functionality that simplify a lot the expenses management
Again, I didn't specifically select the Wand system; our client selected it, and I work with it. However, I have used several VMSs as well, so I feel as though I can compare from a user perspective. Wand isn't great - I prefer Fieldglass for sure, mostly for it's simplicity. IQNavigator, Beeline, and PeopleFluent are all similar to Wand in that they tend to be over-complicated, with a lot of steps involved in the submittal process that aren't relevant to the hiring process. And none are all that intuitive. However, in my experience, the people at PRO are top-notch, and more helpful than almost any others from other VMSs with whom I have worked. I'm not sure if that is strictly a function of the client environment, or PRO itself, but it's worth remarking on.
SAP Fieldglass offers extensive capabilities for managing contingent workforce, statement of work (SOW) projects, and services procurement. It seamlessly integrates with other SAP products (e.g. SAP SuccessFactors, SAP Ariba) and external systems, providing a unified ecosystem for enterprises using SAP’s suite of solutions. It is highly scalable, suitable for large enterprises with complex workforce management needs.
Only negative is that there is not a real connection with the managers from a Recruitment or Sales point of view - but understand they are prob bombarded by sales calls
Very helpful tool to keep process and procedures in place
I would have to say Fieldglass has made a positive impact, only in that having access to it has opened up some client relationships we didn't have before. I am a vendor to clients using Fieldglass, so I can't really report on the financial successes they may have had by implementing it.
The negative side to Fieldglass, or any VMS, really, from an agency perspective is that it cuts out manager contact. That has a negative impact, both to the agency and the hiring manager. No longer can the managers really explain what they need, and no longer can an agency understand the req deeply. We have to work off of a scrubbed job description which is generally pretty vanilla.
