I am in my company's People Analytics department, and Visier People is essential to everything that we do! We use Visier People every day. We use Visier People to enable our partners to view and digest powerful visuals, as well as a hub for all people data such as raw exports, essential metrics, and much more!
Pros
Create Visuals
Download Data
Customizable
Cons
Make Backend easier to understand
More customizability on front-end (e.g. cross-metric calculations)
Likelihood to Recommend
Suitable for any large organization. Might not be as suitable for smaller organizations
We use Visier People to house and display all of our people data. We have now expanded our Visier data from just teammate and movement data to include all TA , compensation, and L&D data, and soon to include engagement data. This has allowed for our end users to really own and use their data themselves, opening capacity on my team to do real analysis. Visier People also is a great tool for visualization; allowing for many different types of charts + different ways to customize them, and easy ways for all users to create analyses to reference in the future.
Pros
Data visualization
Ease of customization
ways to capture and reference charts for future use
Cons
more customization options for tables -- more easy calculations like total (add) or average
way to create custom 'view details' list for individual user groups -- we have a lot of attributes in our detailed export and it would be nice to be able to create a condensed list for each different type of user group
Way to see which charts in an analysis are using different dimension -- similar to how we can see which dimensions are being used throughout the analysis, it would be nice to see by dimension, which charts are using each. This would make it much easier to update analyses when we need to create a new version of a dimension

Visier People is a great tool for visualizing data, but also exporting data to be able to do further analysis. With that, it provides many capabilities to be able to go back and reference charts or tables that you may need in the future -- capture, building/copying analyses, data exports. Visier People is less appropriate for doing actual analysis. It can create basic charts and tables, but there is no functionality to do real analysis in the platform. For example, creating calculations based on different metrics in the platform, statistical analysis/charting, pivoting.

HR analytics. Data pulls for goal metrics and data visualization. Often looking at Turnover
Pros
data visualization
filters
edit metric options
Cons
uploaded metrics without definitions
filtering down to the level of an organization-- unable to get here using normal filtering options
open Visier in multiple tabs at once
Likelihood to Recommend
Well suited to pull data based on metrics and filters applied. Less appropriate for employees who rarely use it and attempt to draw insights. Implementing some AI integration to describe what is happening in a chart would be helpful and add safeguards to prevent misinterpretation
Visier People is an incredible tool that helps us pinpoint various risk factors within the organization, such as overtime abuse, which costs the organization millions. It has highlighted process problems where line managers would approve overtime regardless of its accuracy. Visier People also identified the need for stricter controls to prevent fraud. For example, the source system should prohibit staff from submitting overtime worked on public holidays when the organization is closed, limit claims to a maximum of 40 hours of overtime per month, and disallow rollovers, preventing claims for overtime worked five months prior.
Pros
Overlay information for better insights
Different charts that are impactful
Visier People empowers staff to create their own analyses, which alleviates support calls
Allows business to do proper Workforce planning
Visier allows staff to search for information faster with VEE
Cons
In South Africa we have Employment Equity and displaying that information is very difficult and it is quite complex
It would be nice to easily plug in external data sources in an easier way - like with PowerBI to assist with even further analyses
I have not been able to do a bell curve type chart - I do however have the option to log this as an enhancement
It would be nice to have more functionality on predictions

In our organization, we frequently undergo structural changes, and with 50,000 employees, this can be quite challenging. Visier People has the capability to display both the current and 'To-Be' structures graphically, which is incredibly helpful. It can also map career paths for staff, and we are currently cleaning up our data to use this functionality optimally. Visier People has significantly assisted us in consolidating all our learning data into one place. We currently integrate information from four different source systems, and Visier People is the only tool that can effectively display this data. It excels at telling the story of business problems, identifying where issues lie using benchmarks and thresholds, and recommending solutions. One of Visier People's strengths is its ability to indicate when further analysis is needed, such as a Gender Pay Gap analysis. For deeper analyses, like examining gender pay gaps or biases in performance ratings, we typically use PowerBI. However, we have not yet fully utilized Visier People's predictive capabilities, such as forecasting the likelihood of employee resignations.
Visier People is our People Analytics platform and it is used widely by HR, Finance and people leaders for workforce insights.
Pros
Provide out of the box workforce metrics that are automatically enabled when your organisation's data are provisioned
Easy to use platform that can scale to a large number of users in a very secure way

Cons
The platform's workforce planning solution should be enhanced to support strategic workforce planning
The predictive and forecasting models has room for improvement
The benchmarks included should support more dimensions

I use Visier People for me and other stakeholders in my organization to quickly and accurately see key people metrics and progress.

It also serves as an easy place to export teammate information based on specific filters like job code, cost center, start date, or other identifier.

Visier People is being used within my organization to manage the workforce as it's a bit difficult to manage such a large workforce using traditional software. It is being used to track HR metrics, analyze trends, and make data-driven decisions. This tool is a valuable tool for my organization's HR department and Business Leaders so that they can get complete insight for making more strategic and informed decisions regarding workforce and HR practices. It is less appropriate in the case of small-scale organization due to the expensive cost and pricing models which is not flexible enough to accommodate the budgets of smaller organization.
Viser People helped me to find out the main reason of our business problems. We use Visier People to pinpoint the areas where employee engagement is low. We then make use of this data to create focused initiatives to raise employee engagement. For instance, we might roll out fresh employee engagement initiatives or give staff members more chances to offer feedback and be recognized.
