Overall Satisfaction with Oracle PeopleSoft HCM

I've mainly been the user of this product in my organization, but actually been using it for a few years now. Used to use it at the two schools I've attended. I used to use it to schedule classes for the most part, but really just about anything school/college related.
  • PeopleSoft is very customizable to satisfy one's individual needs
  • Can easily be connected to many different PeopleSoft applications
  • Great permission and access controls, flexible to many different use cases
  • Upgrades are very time consuming, and risky
  • Not mobile compatible, or a supported app for Android or iOS--only browser, which does not render very well.
  • Quite expensive and implementation is challenging.
  • Positive ROI as it is very widely used so easy to find help, hence less time spent on managing on maintaining
  • Positive ROI as it is very widely used so easy to find help, hence less manpower spent on managing on maintaining
I cannot think of any instance where PeopleSoft HCM would not be the right product, as PeopleSoft HCM is very customizable and flexible to one's needs, and can be controlled in many ways. But PeopleSoft HCM is very well suited for any company or organization that does many basic things such as payroll, finance, school schedules, maintaining records of users, and other details.
