Oracle PeopleSoft HCM Reviews & Insights

In my current organization, we use Oracle PeopleSoft HCM for PII data, Banking details, Job Details and leave accruals. We've had an issue with hiring new employees and their data sometimes not feeding over. There is now an integration in place from SuccessFactors to our interface to process and insert a record in Job Data. If there are any errors, we can now manually correct it and reprocess the feed which eliminates the team from manually entering all PII and job information.

Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is well suited if you have many customizations/exceptions where other systems you use in your organization can not accommodate. Examples are adding a new field or opening a page up for users in specific countries.

I was using another inhouse application which was helped me in certain areas but since we have a plan to implement an application Pan India, I decide to move with an industry specific solutions, here I got to know about Oracle PeopleSoft HCM and after some clients feedback, I decided to move with to it.

Only suited for most B2B or large services companies

We use it for HR and Payroll. It is nice because it works with our accounting system as well, but we also have to use another database to export data, which is a little annoying. There are some kinks that could be worked out, but overall the system is pretty good and gives us what we need.

It works good when we have staff that know how to properly use it. I do not think that it is a system problem, I think that the problem is that we have new staff or just various staff across our agency that use it and we dont all use it the same and also the staff who do use it do not know the ins and outs of it and that is the main problem.

Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is our main HR system. It is used to onboard new hires, as well as providing a feed to many other systems we use on a daily basis. We use Oracle PeopleSoft HCM to provide one location for HR-related business within the organization. This helps us bring down silos that existed before our implementation, integrating the HR system across multiple locations for easy access to all HR data.

Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is great for onboarding new hires. The process, including some newer direct entry features, has been streamlined and made more intuitive. However, there is a steep learning curve for those who are completely unfamiliar with enterprise systems as a whole. In my experience, Oracle PeopleSoft HCM's updates have historically failed to improve the intuitiveness of navigation and features even through a move to a SaaS configuration in the cloud. This makes it hard to train new HR staff because there may be five different ways to accomplish the same thing and none of them are intuitive enough to just "figure out". This has been a bone of contention for me for all Oracle products for my entire 20+ year career, and it has never been fully addressed.

Here in my company, we use Oracle HCM on a daily basis. From onboard hiring to getting every details such as employment verification, salary etc. As for the information security tasks, that is also assigned to employees in the HCM tool. A time limit is also provided which helps the employees identify when to finish it. The tool also help monitor everything.

In the current scenario, where most companies are still having their employees to work from home. I had a certain requirement for my home loan. I needed to provide an employment verification letter to the bank. This HCM tool did a perfect job in this case. I got the letter within seconds and that too with a digital signature. Everything worked out and the whole job was simpler.

It's been used across all users for my bank. PeopleSoft HCM is a superb product having all the human resources functionality. Also, the product is flexible enough to allow several customizations for complex business processes. Currently from new employee hire, career progression, exit and fill and final settlement - all [of these] activities are performed through PeopleSoft in my organization

It's an enterprise-grade product best suited for absence, payroll, time and labour and all other HR functionalities. Any complex functionality can be built here as customization. But look and feel wise it's not [that] advanced. There could have been a feature for video, SMS or WhatsApp alerts which is missing currently.

In my organization, it is used for time sheet tracking, leave management, employee information and manager actions. It is set up globally across all departments. Several thousand users use it for self help as well as administrative tasks. Both web and mobile versions of the interface have been enabled across the organization.

Oracle PeopleSoft HCM seems to be better suited for very large organizations that have several hundred employees, are geographically dispersed, each geo location may have individual country specific regulations and different HR rules. This software can be customized for different rules and specific needs and processes of the organization and sub organizations.

Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is great for tracking most HR related information. The customization for the company is great, as well as the ability to integrate with a wide variety of complimentary software. For example, ours is integrated with our ATS (Taleo) for recruiting, Kronos for timekeeping, and Vemo for workforce insight reports. Given it's overall ability, it is probably overkill for smaller companies that may want a more focused HRIS that can handle everything without the need to integrate with additional software.

Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is used by the entire organization. It works as a self service platform for employees, assists with payroll processing, provides performance appraisal information, and is used by managers (like myself) to complete pay action requests. We also leverage Oracle PeopleSoft HCM's workforce administration, worklist, reporting components, and recruiting tools. It has a lot of capabilities that deliver value to our teams at an individual level as well as from a management standpoint.

It is a software that I would recommend due to its implementation simplicity. This tool allows us to build custom business processes via a relatively smooth interface (if a little dated). We use Oracle PeopleSoft HCM for global HCM, NA payroll, benefits, and the application offers the ability to customize and is continuously evolving in the cloud. It integrates with other personal programming platforms. Integration is key. Reporting performance is excellent, as well.

PeopleSoft is being used as our internal portal for HR employees to manage and adjust current employees' personal information. It is used across a wide range of HR employees and it would be considered a core system for our HR day to day functions. It gives us the ability to manage employees and personal information easily and efficiently across departments.

PeopleSoft is a great software for any company, large or small, that is in need of an internal portal for employees.
