Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Cloud HCM

Cloud HCM was brought in to replace the PeopleSoft application that we were currently using as our HR application. All the entities across all departments are using it. The main reason why Cloud HCM was chosen was for the ease of updating to newer technology, being mobile-friendly and of course the backing of Oracle, which we believed would bring all the functionality of PeopleSoft into the cloud. With the need to access the system on the go for a lot of employees, we needed an application that would cover the whole spread of HR functions and be available on mobile devices. Especially payroll, benefits enrollment, and performance review are areas that were critically in need of this in HR.
  • The dashboards are extremely easy to build and the interactive dashboards are a big seller for most customers.
  • The talent management system is very well designed especially the talent review, and goals & performance management function since it covers most of the functionality a lot of customers are looking for.
  • The new learning cloud is also very good since it has finally brought the full spectrum of talent management into the cloud. Especially the learning outcome integration with skills.
  • The design of the BPM workflow can be improved to make it easier to configure workflows in the application.
  • The approval hierarchy can be displayed to the person submitting the request so that he is aware that the request has been sent for approval. currently, he has to look at his email for a verification that his request has been sent.
  • The personalization of pages should be made easier, currently using the EL & sandboxes is a time-consuming process.
Although Oracle HCM does not have the ability to be as customizable as PeopleSoft but it is more user-friendly. Also, the ability to use mobile devices with Oracle HCM is a great savings considering we have to build fluid pages separately in PeopleSoft.
Its great for companies who are looking to reduce costs and move into an application that is mobile-ready. Specifically for mid-market companies who are going in for their first ERP. It may not be the best solution for all the functions in HR, but it is very good in almost all the functions that an HR applications should address.
You may want to consider on-premise application if you are in a industry that is highly specialised (although Cloud HCM will still fit a lot of these industries well), with custom HR process / procedures.
