Overall Satisfaction with Oracle PeopleSoft HCM

Oracle PeopleSoft is being used across the organization and replacing a system which is over 20 years old.It is being integrated with other systems to encompass all areas of workflows and meet the needs of the community.
  • PeopleSoft allows the user community to categorize data into various sectors.
  • It captures minute transactional details.
  • It is a one stop shopping center of information and raw data.
  • It offers great archiving and recovery of information costing less in physical storage and printing and allowing universal access to necessary data.
  • The click throughs are immense and a user can easily get lost when trying to reproduce a path to data.
  • The system does not accept fast typing so incorrect data can easily be entered
  • End users get intimidated by the multiple features that are available. However, through training and accurate documentation, system acceptance and mastery are being achieved.
  • Better vision into the hiring and promotion behavior of the organization.
  • Better awareness of end users for all of the data that is important to the organization.
  • Ease of use when initiating the process of finding quality candidates and getting them onboarded faster.
  • SAP
PeopleSoft has direct paths to the screens that are efficient and intuitive. At times there seems to be many steps to the final screen, but overall, it is an efficient and user ffriendly system.
When trying to find specific data, whether current or historic, the Oracle PeopleSoft makes data management rather easy and effective. By utilizing the system better, paper files can be eliminated, and the quality of reproductions increases dramatically as any reproductions are made from the original. Additionally, locating information and attachments couldn't be more intuitive or easier.
