Overall Satisfaction with Visier People

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Visier People to house and display all of our people data. We have now expanded our Visier data from just teammate and movement data to include all TA , compensation, and L&D data, and soon to include engagement data. This has allowed for our end users to really own and use their data themselves, opening capacity on my team to do real analysis. Visier People also is a great tool for visualization; allowing for many different types of charts + different ways to customize them, and easy ways for all users to create analyses to reference in the future.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Data visualization
Ease of customization
ways to capture and reference charts for future use

Cons

more customization options for tables -- more easy calculations like total (add) or average
way to create custom 'view details' list for individual user groups -- we have a lot of attributes in our detailed export and it would be nice to be able to create a condensed list for each different type of user group
Way to see which charts in an analysis are using different dimension -- similar to how we can see which dimensions are being used throughout the analysis, it would be nice to see by dimension, which charts are using each. This would make it much easier to update analyses when we need to create a new version of a dimension

Return on Investment

Has allowed for my team (total of 11) to stop pulling and creating reports, and doing actual analysis, benefitting the overall business
has allowed our TA partners to better track their data, giving them more time to react to situations and make changes to better outcomes
Created a seamless process for our highest level talent reviews, cutting a process from 4 months to 1, and a project team from 5 to 2.

Usability

Visier People makes it very easy for all end users to go in and see, pull, or dig in to their data where previously my team would have to pull or schedule a report of the data to each user. It is also very fast in updating charts/analyses when changing or adding filters, which makes the ease of use better. Last, the charts and analyses are very visually appeasing, making users want to use the platform more.

Alternatives Considered

Tableau Desktop

Tableau was much slower than Visier People when trying to add or change filters, especially for the amount of data we were visualizing. It was good for housing data/creating different tables, but not good for visualization. we could create very basic charts in our dashboards, but you could not customize them or easily dig into the data that is feeding the charts. It was also not as sleek and very clunky, so users did not enjoy the platform.

Likelihood to Recommend

Visier People is a great tool for visualizing data, but also exporting data to be able to do further analysis. With that, it provides many capabilities to be able to go back and reference charts or tables that you may need in the future -- capture, building/copying analyses, data exports. Visier People is less appropriate for doing actual analysis. It can create basic charts and tables, but there is no functionality to do real analysis in the platform. For example, creating calculations based on different metrics in the platform, statistical analysis/charting, pivoting.
