Manager in Human Resources (5001-10,000 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In my current organization, we use Oracle PeopleSoft HCM for PII data, Banking details, Job Details and leave accruals. We've had an issue with hiring new employees and their data sometimes not feeding over. There is now an integration in place from SuccessFactors to our interface to process and insert a record in Job Data. If there are any errors, we can now manually correct it and reprocess the feed which eliminates the team from manually entering all PII and job information.

Pros

Track audit
Pulls data for queries
Customizable

Cons

Better interface so that there are less complex implementation and maintenance requirements
Better training on new functionality to users
Better legacy architecture so that it will not impact deployments

Return on Investment

Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is easy to use
Provides users the details they need to see
Enhancements are configurable

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is our main HR system. It is used to onboard new hires, as well as providing a feed to many other systems we use on a daily basis. We use Oracle PeopleSoft HCM to provide one location for HR-related business within the organization. This helps us bring down silos that existed before our implementation, integrating the HR system across multiple locations for easy access to all HR data.

Pros

On-boarding of new staff
Highly customizable
Very robust data points when used properly

Cons

User Interface, even under Fluid UI is still the same old tired Oracle PeopleSoft HCM
In my opinion, costs far too much for most enterprises to implement especially if any customization is needed
In my opinion it has gone downhill ever since Oracle acquired PeopleSoft - they have taken on the same mentality as Oracle which unfortunately took the PeopleSoft name down several notches for me personally

Return on Investment

Has made onboarding new hires easier and decreased some turnover
Saves hours by bringing data from multiple systems together
In my experience, causes the need for excessive training because of its non-intuitive user interface and long-outdated data entry routines

Manager in Finance and Accounting (501-1000 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it for HR and Payroll. It is nice because it works with our accounting system as well, but we also have to use another database to export data, which is a little annoying. There are some kinks that could be worked out, but overall the system is pretty good and gives us what we need.

Pros

Employee Personal Information
Employee Benefits
Pay information

Cons

Updating payroll funding
Keeping personal information secure
additional queries for information needed

Return on Investment

Over the years it has helped reduce the FTE counts within various agencies
We have recently started looking into another database that will do all the things we need, Payroll, HR, Accounting, budget.
