Overall Satisfaction with SAP SuccessFactors HCM

It is used for staff tasks and targets settings, performance monitoring and engagements. We adopt both mid year and year end reviews and assessments. The approach is for staff to do a self evaluation, listing how they believe they've performed, initially at mid year and then at year end. Thereafter the manager reviews and either validate or modify.

Pros

  • Personnel Performance planning
  • Personnel Performance monitoring
  • Robust database provision

Cons

  • Possibility of reviewing multiple staff with same functions
  • Copying from previous period not as seamless as expected
  • Template for sending appraisal back to staff: does not turn first letter of a word after a full-stop in capitals
  • Clarity on performance level
  • Productivity analytics
Till date, it's been delivering on what its used for. Apparently, it could do more than what my organization has adopted till date, based on the functionality enlisted in previous questions
While being considered, there is not specific timeline yet
