Overall Satisfaction with Oracle PeopleSoft ERP

It is the main financial, HR, and backbone ERP system of our organization. From employees to back-office personnel, it is a one-stop application that handles billing, payroll, HR functions, financial tracking, and more. This system is similar to using the SAP ERP system for a large global organization. This application system encompasses all areas of business.

Pros

  • Provides a configurable ERP Solution.
  • Can be used for all facets of business.
  • Dependable.
  • Proven Solution.

Cons

  • Hard to configure.
  • UI is outdated.
  • May not adapt to all businesses.
  • Needs to be updated.
  • Cuts down on manual activity that needs to be done.
  • Better forecasting for future business.
  • Great ability to track cost.
  • Great for tracking employee performance.
The usability is very outdated In my opinion. The screens resemble those of Windows 3.1. Too many clicks and drop-downs or clicks to go to a new screen. The business logic also appears dated and requires an update. Overall, it does not have a pleasing User Interface and should be refreshed, or a new interface should be built from the ground up.
PeopleSoft has been a leader for many years, but needs to be refreshed to keep up with similar solutions from Workday and SAP. The visual screens and the user interface of SAP and Workday are much more modern and intuitive compared to the interface and business logic of Oracle PeopleSoft ERP.

Would you buy Oracle PeopleSoft ERP again?

No

PeopleSoft ERP has been one of the leading ERP software solutions for several years. However, it appears that it has not been updated in some time, and the UI is highly outdated. Additionally, the business logic and flow of many screens appear to have been established long ago and have not been updated. While it can be used for many organizations and business types, it seems best suited to manufacturing rather than business services.
