As a long standing SAP HR/HCM/HXM user, i am very pleased with the redeveloped UI and the additional functionalities SAP has deployed over the years. SAP has been very proactive and reactive in a very timely manner in ensuring that the SuccessFactors platform continues to be a best of breed solution and it is so well entrenched in my organization that i do not see any need to not renew whatsoever. We love the product and it very well meets our organizational needs in all area.
