Oracle PeopleSoft

We do have to create our own database to store student enrollment data and license information, as PeopleSoft does not allow for this function. I have seen the capabilities of StarFish and as far as reach out or mass communication I do think that Peoplesoft if far behind in this area. My wish list would include more customization features with patch updates, or the ability to have unique users create their own dashboard areas and customize what they see for students, as the general information can mean multiple pages of digging through things to find the one piece of data you may need. I think the range of what this software can accomplish in a university setting does encompass a good amount of things. For example, as a current advisor using this software to do things such as student checks and advising notes, but knowing that our HR systems can be supported by this too, is interesting. This software does allow for reporting data to be pulled into excel documents which I appreciate, as there are not too many steps or manipulation that needs to be done. For example, using the query viewer functions we can pull reports to look at profiles or enrollment. Student groups and terms can sometimes make it difficult to look at a wide variety of data. One of the harder functions about the query viewer is that when we pull reports, while easy to pull...we have to establish terms that we are looking at, or set up perimeters for student group data to be pulled appropriately. We have had to work quite closely with our OIT team to get this done, and when we do pull reports we are only able to pull one term at a time, and then re-open the query viewer and then pull another report with another term date which can be a pain. The lack of customization in certain areas can be frustrating as well. I do wish the advising areas we use in the system had more room for departments to customize to their standards. But to comply with the university standards we must have one set office that can determine what we do as far as making note areas unique, for example.

I have used PeopleSoft (PS) since 2005 and in various positions/capacities at two different institutions. I've worked through three major upgrades, two HR/CMS splits, and COUNTLESS bundles and test runs. I've used helped design brand new pages, update/upgrade/improve the information and functionality of existing pages, created security tables, granted users access, entered data, and manipulated/created other data so that others could query that data for their needs. I've trained dozen of faculty and staff how to navigate through PS and how to use PS to access needed data and/or run pre-formatted queries and reports. It is robust database management system and I could not do my job without it! I've used PeopleSoft both in what some would call the "vanilla" version, and also a "modified" to fit the specific needs of the organization, and/or department level version. What impresses me is that it is just that - modifiable, and can be programmed (if you have the people and know-how) to program it to do what you need. Being able to query data from many different tables can really save time and effort, which in turn saves manpower hours/money. It's a silly wish, but I wish PeopleSoft allowed the users to change the color of their individual display and settings - like the color of the background, or the size and type and color of font. I'm sure there's a way to do it, but it is managed by the SUPER Administrative users and "powers that be".... and it's probably an all or nothing kind of thing. I'm in the program 8 hours a day, and all that WHITE background and tiny font...let me jazz it up and make it my own like MS allows.

Used peoplesoft to for Human Resources to hire new employees, set up compensation, and work assignments, classify them with a specific position number. I liked the ability to house different employee groups, hourly and salary. I also liked the option of having multiple work assignments set up for a single employee to show the different position, along with compensation, ability to track anniversary dates, and the automation of the pay lines that created based on the updates to the employee. The system is complicated and has many layers. I didn't understand the need for the multiple modules for employee groups, and the many screens you had to update to complete updates to an employees persona data. Specifically, updating emergency contact, education info, or address changes were entered on different screens, in setting up new employee instance. I would like the same ability to make those updates enter at the same time same screen since it still personal data. But this could be because of the customization of the organization.

As a result, you may use this tool to plan your human resources, and it can also help you find a solution to your problem. Always go with the option that is most beneficial to your company's long-term survival. In terms of ERP and HRM, PeopleSoft is a top-notch solution. Employee data serve as the basis for this cloud-based application, which is used to manage numerous business requirements. Anyone can use it because it has a simple user interface. By using several IDs, you can search for an employee and get all the records they've kept while working for you in PeopleSoft. To put it succinctly, I admire Oracle systems because they place a high value on the long-term viability of the organization as a whole. In spite of the fact that this isn't always a bad thing, you must always stop working while technology specialists provide technical support, which is inconvenient at times. I also think the user interface's simplicity is outdated and needs to be updated, as it frequently bores me.

it helps to make organization work easy. I have done work on peopleosoft financial as developer .Oracle has given almost everything in ERP. What is good in this tool it make easy to track any organization work.Good thing is it makes easy to understand application for both i.e for developer and for client because both knows the functional of application so client easily can tell what is exact their requirement and as developer knows about ERP so for them it is easy to do changes what exact client want.For any organization it helps to reduce extra cost and time on organization finance system or HR system because Peopesoft ERP handle everything. it is very old ERP now I prefer to select workday or fusion over peoplsoft because they have lot of new features which make easy to understand ERP but in peoplesoft it is little bit time taking process to understand functional. Many bugs you will get and for them Oracle has not given any patches in new release.

My company uses this program for requesting and processing purchase orders among other things. We also use the HR features for tracking employees and classes. It's easy to use, if not totally user friendly. There are some areas that it is not completely intuitive, but otherwise it definitely gets the job done. It doesn't run a smooth as it should on some browser versions, but works well enough. The only thing I would love to see incorporated would be the option to use hot keys or even "Alt" keys. This program is easy to use. There are search functions that help find what you are looking for. And there is a dashboard area that lets you know right away if there is something that needs your attention. The HR part of the software is not very user intuitive. The options to choose can get fairly confusing. The program doesn't work well with all version of my browser. I have learned to deal with the quirks the program on my browser.

My experience has been excellent with Oracle to fulfill the functions related to the tasks I perform daily, in this system I get information that my supervisor asks me, useful information to accomplish tasks assigned by other departments, income movements and expenditures among other assignments . The Oracle system is an excellent tool to comply with organizational processes. It is very important to keep the organizational structure in order and to ensure that when making a movement within the structure the changes are made as accurately as possible without affecting the business in any way. I do not consider that the Oracle system has disadvantages, it is necessary to have an administrator who knows the regulations so that no changes are made without authorization. It is a system that allows you to do everything related to the entry and exit of personnel as well as all the movements of promotions and transfers.

Overall it was challenging first but once you get the hang of it the Software has so many uses and makes my job a little easier that I don't have to use so many different platforms to access my information as well as the students I use Oracle PeopleSoft is a multifaceted Software and has so many different capabilities and options that keep everything on our campus streamlined from payroll, personal data like direct deposit performance evaluations, queries, student worker data and many more options Since there are so many options and capabilities Oracle PeopleSoft is intimidating at first glance/use. It took some time to get used to navigating between the different screens, learning shortcuts, which buttons to use and when. Still learning all that this Software has to offer

Overall, we have used PeopleSoft for years, and have had little issues with it. Despite it being a basic tool, it works well, and we plan to keep it for that. My company has used Oracle PeopleSoft for a many years. Our main uses of it include sharing benefits information, new hire resources, compensation history, as well as our talent profile. It's used in-house, and has made it easy for information to be gather (from Oracle database) and disseminated to the employees. My only complaint is that the tool is kind-of old fashioned and basic. There are numerous means of querying information and providing it to the user, so in the grand scheme of things, the tool hasn't seemed that special to me.

Oracle PeopleSoft is a great tool for your business. I wish my current employer used Oracle PeopleSoft! For many businesses, our largest resource is our workforce. I loved working with Oracle PeopleSoft to manage candidates, employees, communications, financials and more! This was a great tool for our business. As my first experience with HR software, I was pleased to find how easy to navigate PeopleSoft was. Made me feel like an expert out of the gates. I did not have any concerns with Oracle PeopleSoft. Any issues that arose were immediately handled by customer service. I loved how easy it was to use and never had frustrations with PeopleSoft as I have with other software.

I used oracle when working as a buyer planner at Starbucks, I was there as it got implemented, and it made work so much easier. It simplified work and one could get things done more efficient. Instead of having to do several steps, using the program gave you the chance to do things faster and you found information in the system which also made work easier. The support was very good and always at hand. As mentioned I was there for the implementation and it took a while to have all the tools ready and working properly. The system couldn't be used at it's full potential for a while. With the right support and with time it got solved.

Overall the program is amazing and invoice tracking, tracking of GLs and budgets. It helps to consolidate reports to get an overall picture of where you budget is at for various properties. This is a great software for commercial property management. This program is great for processing of POs. It helps to connect both the original PO to the invoice and then offsets once payment is completed. It has amazing reports that can be run project specific so you always know if you job is on budget. This program can be quite cumber-sum and hard to teach to new employees. It is not very intuitive and requires lots of training.

Overall it is a decent product, there are some inefficiencies within the program; however, I believe this could be fixed based on the buildout for the organization and what developers identify is needed. More efficient platform. One of the main features I love about this product is the development of reports and queries. It also allows reports to be exported into various formats as well. Some of the processes within the program are redundant. Requesting information can be a bit inefficient because the program requests various steps to produce one report or functionality within the system.

We use this to manage premium payments, bonus money, commissions, and other monetary transactions as needed for a large insurance company. It's pretty simple to use once you get the hang of it. A lot of stuff behind the scenes that seems to be customizable to your company's needs. As a front end user, I'm able to manage various payments to accounts in multiple departments smoothly. It takes some time to learn everything, and when you're short staffed it can make you wish it was a mute elf explanatory user experience, but nothing we couldn't work around.

As this is a cloud based product, i didnot faced any issues with this product. initial startup requires proper learning and hands on, but as compared to other accounting packages, its quite proficient and easy to use. Applications of Oracle It is like all under one roof. we can manage and review financial aspects, analyze our inventory tracking, rate our suppliers and can manage them easily,etc. etc. Internet should be available all the times. Sometimes due to technical issues we can face serious problems.

A very good tool, that was feature rich and allowed you to build custom business process, but you could you shoot yourself in the foot with the customization, and get stuck doing custom processes. I like how customizable the tool is to match whatever business process you have. It has strong reporting capabilities and can handle very complex process. With the customization we had to do lots of regression testing when new updates came out. Sometimes this broke our customization and required much more work.

There are good and bad qualities to all products/systems. The more you use it the easier it becomes to navigate. Oracle was great about changing their view of the product to be better at being visually appealing to the eye and reading/navigating for the older generations who join the team at later times. For the most part user friendly. Most updates are straight forward. Some features are limited. There could always be better explanation on how to use those features.

I use people soft at least 2/3 times a day to pull up my personal information and review recent changes without having to call my employer Makes making Human resource changes such as address/phone very easy. I am able to find most of of the things I am looking too. This includes changing my tax exemptions, updating beneficiaries, looking at my time I have avail. ETC I have no issues at all with people soft everything is easily able to pull up and it always at hand.

It helped manage employee profiles, benefits, talent, and performance management. Being able to customize this product has made setting it up for my company simple and easy. The administration of the product is not too complicated for most individuals. This product is also great for the managers to keep track of their employees. This product is primarily for bigger organizations, which means that the cost is too expensive for the smaller companies.

Great data and storage capacity, comes in handy when searching for students profile information. Very secure and dependable. This program contains a large database and has been reliable for years. We use this daily and it's one of the most used software at the University. It's difficult to navigate if you don't know what you're doing. Firstime users may find it to be a bit complex.

Great Human Resources and Accounting product The functions and compatibility with other software, PeopleSoft plays well with many other software and a great central key software Expensive to customize and can be a bit frustrating if not customized. PeopleSoft can be built to work well with your company and the stock software can be frustrating without that custom investment

ERP portal is developed and is being used by many employees The functionality provided is very good , peoplecode can be written as per our choice and requirement , custom objects can be created and used for building the overall look of the system. The tool wont last longer as customising the overlook of the system is cumbersome also new technology are coming to

I like how the applications allow my team to run reports with regularity, accessing various database metrics critical for evaluation. The learning curve process for implementation and effective use requires an expansive team of professionals. This would also include support. Also, while the interface is customizable, it does feel a bit outdated in terms of UI/UX.

This has streamlined publishing for us and keeps the team on one page with posting. We use this everyday to keep our team in line with publishing. When it comes to scheduling and posting, this is a great tool! When needing to cancel a scheduled post if you are posting to multiple pages sometimes you have to delete them one by one.

Once you get the hang of it is not as bad, it has many functions can build many reports. Sometimes it can be slow takes time to build reports.


First - the only reason I would not likely recommend PS payroll is because PS - and any client-server solution is on the way out as cloud solutions infiltrate the market - and are being successful.



But over 20 years of implementing PeopleSoft payroll from a functional and technical role, I've seen PS payroll grow much more mature.  Developers have capitalized on the COBOL monster that is known as pay calc.  (pay confirm is also a COBOL monster).  While it takes developers to sift through errors and to know COBOL and how to trace, it is not all that difficult to get to the point of origin of an error.  Perhaps that has come solely on years of experience.  



The product from a functional standpoint now seems to make sense.  It took a while, but PS did listen when things were not working correctly.  While PS allows customizations, when it comes to payroll, so long as you can get your data to the staging area or directly to paysheet tables, the payroll process (COBOL) takes care of the rest.  



Setup tables also make sense.  Being in a relational database makes sense.  Being effective dated in setup  tables, job data, and benefit/deduction data makes this application quite powerful while retaining a historical roadmap of what has taken place.



The ability to really have true multiple, concurrent jobs works well in PS.  It is definitely complicated and complex, but it works.  Most of the time.  
 
Some of the things I like as a techy (a PS techy) also come as a dislike....but not too much.  Effective dating can be very confusing and complex when it comes to problem solving, however, as long as it is on your list of troubleshooting checkpoints, it's a no-brainer.  



Being able to add "bolt-on" applications is nice, but now as a Workday consultant, it is extremely difficult to find ways to replace those bolt-ons.  So while this flexibility is nice during the PS tenure, it creates havoc later.  Also being able to update fields and insert/delete rows of data behind the scenes also makes for quick fixes but later is horrific to follow, explain, and make things balance - especially when moving to a new app and platform.



There are several holes in PS.  Some are known.  Some are unexplainable.  Sometimes data just goes missing....or it never is populated in the first place.  And if we can't recreate it in a demo environment, forget getting help from support.  Support is terrible most of the time.  It takes an eternity to try and recreate something in a demo environment, especially when the core setup of demo is nowhere near your live environment.  



UPGRADES.  Upgrades are terrible.  It's a full-blown project.  It's expensive.  It is labor intensive.  It is time consuming and usually requires outside resources due to the time commitment.  



Applying fixes and updates.  Tools updates.  App updates.  Keeping environments in sync.  DBMS sync.  Password syncs.  Version control is tough.  There really is no version control when it comes to Peopletools.  You have what you have in that moment.  There is no way to roll back unless projects are always exported - but once an object has been touched several times, keeping track of snapshots is hellacious.  



Not likely that PS will continue to develop solutions.   
general payroll.  Paying employees who work several jobs at the same time.  Sometimes employees who work across companies.   


Nothing. I can't stand the navigation, I can't stand the way it functions. It is non-intuitive, even in the most developed modules. It's the hardest thing I have ever had to teach anyone, and I am an expert in PeopleSoft. I have brought up these concerns forever, but Oracle is interested in one thing and one thing only: How many millions can I make on this?



It is a shame, really, because they have still been able to grow so huge. If they put any effort on developing the system, and making it easier to understand, so many more enterprises would install it. But, those enterprises aren't worth billions, so it won't be a priority. 
I can't think of anything I do not dislike. Even after tons of updates, it still looks like an archaic junk program compared to other cloud based solutions. It appears clunky and old, and navigation is nearly impossible. There is so much 'stuff' in there, it's impossible to find it all, and most of it isn't in a logical place. They really do need to take a long, hard look at this product and fix it. 
Know your implementation team. DO NOT make the mistake of choosing a partner that tells you it will only take a year or two. It ALWAYS takes longer to successfully implement PeopleSoft! 
Of course the system solves hundreds of business problems, which is why it is purchased so much. However, since implementation and troubleshooting takes so much money and effort, only the most huge entities will ever have a working peoplesoft implementation. I hope to see changes in Oracle once Larry Ellison no longer holds the reigns. 


The auto population of expenses charged to the corporate credit card makes the reporting process a little less of a time burden, but is a pretty standard feature on expense reporting software.  
The system is very clunky. There is constant red tape when trying to submit an expense report. If there is any lag time in submitting expenses and an expense is submitted before populating in the "wallet" it is burdensome to get the expense removed. Additionally, time reporting can take a significant amount of time on its own, as the forms load slowly and there is no way to enter multiple days of time at once. Furthermore, the editing of time after submission is nearly impossible and the process is not intuitive.  
Tailor the program more to your entity and the results can be better. The platform has a high level of capabilities, but it can be difficult and time consuming to build an understanding of this as the software is not particularly easy to use.  
Timely reporting of expenses and project related time. It is effective if the time is submitted in a timely manner, but the burden of entering information in PeopleSoft often prevents people from doing so.  


Poeplesoft can provide in depth access to all data stored in the program, be it financial, personnel or purchasing related. It also gives a variety of drill down options and queries. 
The way that the system pulls all the stored data to work with the different daily operating task of a business is far too complicated and outweighs its benefits. The enlarged drill down capacity causes any task to become extremely time consuming. 



Support is also a problem as each module is developed independently and each support team can only advise about its module. Some operations might need support from more than one team, which causes delay on day-to-day operations.  
Consider customizing the product to your business needs and do a second evaluation on a trial run of your entire operation with before implementing. 
Governmental finance brings more challenges as it is a bit different than conventional business. Would warn future conversions to customize the product, but also to look at other software options. 


The auto-save feature is helpful. That's about it. 
The system is slow, looks outdated, has very small font, and does not have some basic features that most other similar applications do have (like the ability to copy an expense report). Likewise, the expense report section requires that each line be completed manually, one at a time; and we have to create a new line for each item--which gets very tedious and frustrating. Also, the navigation is clunky and actionable buttons are placed in awkward, inconspicuous spots throughout the various pages. We recently moved from Oracle EBS to PeopleSoft after our company was acquired by another, and so far I cannot find any colleague that likes PeopleSoft over EBS in the slightest. 
Don't buy PeopleSoft!!! You WILL regret it! 
I am now using this system internally for ESS tasks. So far, only the auto-save feature is a realized benefit. 


Purchasing core supplies negotiated by our institution is easier. The HR component is useful--updating W2s, accessing paystubs, and other self service features are user friendly.  
In the ERP functionality, we experience poor access to reporting.  My staff's submissions sometimes disappear and there is no ability, even at the help desk to figure out where the submission has been directed. In some places the data input by the user is not visible to the reviewer, so the review does not have sufficient information to approve the submission. Therefore we have to continue using external systems, which negates the utility of the system.  
Create user groups to review the implementation process to ensure that the system will meet the needs of all departments. Provide substantial training prior to roll-out. 
ERP - few, more difficult than previous systems 


There is great reporting functionality and it does have quite a bit of data available to admins. As an admin or a user, there is a tremendous amount of information that can be queried on.  
It is incredibly complex and cumbersome. Delivered functionality often fails to work as designed, designed functionality fails to take the user into account on a frequent basis.  
Fully evaluate your options. When looking at companies who have had success on the platform, make sure you truly understand the level of customization and development that takes place initially and on-going.  
We are using it to provide learning and tracking to associates. It is a self service system, although users find it difficult to navigate and use.  


I don't like this system at all, so nothing. 
The system is outdated. It has an old click-through platform, you can't go back to the last thing you were working on quickly, and the system is not intuitive-based for users, it is technical if-then based which is not user-friendly. 
Don't. Go with SalesForce - it combines HR, Accounting, Business Development, Contract Management, and so much more! 
My company uses PeopleSoft for Accounting mostly but also lightly for contract management. I haven't realized any benefits - it's an outdated and not-user friendly system.  


I really don't like anything about Peoplesoft.  
So many things, where do I even begin. I just find it extremely NOT user friendly. It's filled with a lot of errors, glitches etc. Perhaps it's the fault of how my workplace sets it up but wow... I have never used another application this tedious and annoying, filled with glitches and errors. 
Sadly, I would not.  
I use it to send in receipts and forms for work compensation. It should be pretty straightforward but believe it or not the application makes it so incredibly complicated.  


I like that it houses resumes and applications 
Feels like a very old system.  A lot of clicks involved in each task.

Can not go back in make changes if needed.  Need to start over at times if a change is needed.

Difficult to learn even for a technically savvy person. 
Not user friendly - takes a long time to get things done. 
Can search and fins applicants but mainly housing resumes and applications.

Helps us be compliant. 


It's ability to track information input into the system. 
it is not user friendly. If you don't have the very specific details of the queries and entries, you will not be successful. To be fully prepared to run these queries and create these entries, you need to have a lot of experience or rely on someone else to point you in the right direction.  
Tracking donations and student information.  


I love how it loads so slowly and how its not intuitive and how it looks  and functions like ms dos! 
Everything, nothing is intuitive. Its hard to follow and remember where to go. It takes a computer programmer just to pull balance sheet. DO NOT BUY its not helpful.  
We have full time employees onsite that are peoplesoft experts more like they deal with its terrible design everyday. 


It has a good framework with various facilities for integration in multiple industries 
The UI is pathetic and is difficult to use. The graphics seem older than a decade and the issues are possible in any random scenario. Freshers stuck in this technology have a difficult career ahead 
Implementation of an ERP system for HR data of an organization 


PeopleSoft HCM is easy to use and highly customizable. 
Once upon a time, PeopleSoft HCM was cutting edge, but lack of innovation has left this ERP lacking compared to newer offerings from other companies. 
PeopleSoft allows my company to manage, pay, and administer benefits for its growing workforce. 


One platform for many aspects. We were able to load a lot of data for a multifaceted organization.  
Not intuitive to most. Clunky. A lot of repetition. Tasks take much longer to do  
Try it and test in your standard users. Staff struggle with this.  
Human resource applications and expensing  


Easy to input information, easy data entry, maintains consistency. 
Difficult to train users, convoluted, difficult to navigate, bad user experience. 
Contract management and administration.  Easy to communicate contractual terms across different departments. 


PeopleSoft is fairly easy to use for the average professional. 
PeopleSoft could use some updating to make it more appealing.  
Make sure you know the limitations of this product before implementing. 
PeopleSoft can be useful in a Human Resources setting. 


Provides a way to share information across the organization.  
The software is not at all user friendly. Not intuitive for inexperienced or occasional users. 
I can look up and print my teaching schedule and my class rosters. 


I like being able to see my pay stubs all in one area 
Navigating seems very difficult and not user friendly  
Use a different product  
It is nice to have one place that all employees can go to view benefit information  


It pays the bills, I am able to run queries that were already made for me 
The software is not capable of paying Canadian dollars.  It is also difficult to create reports  
It pays the bills to our vendors and employees 


reliable payroll and tax upgrades  able to customize platform 
intensive it support required to maintain on premises software 
self-service employee and manager transactions and reliable payroll/taxes 


I dont like anything about people soft. Its not user friendly and its old and not updated 
The system is older and not intuitive. Its not visually appealing or easy to use 
Performance management 


The integration of payroll, time recording, and personal information.  
The useless information cluttering each page.  
I was able to correct a mistake on my time off request.  


the GUI interface was very friendly and was easy to determine how to use 
2 people coldn't edit simultaneously causing data loss 
it was used for a ticketing system 


job security and more job security. too complicated. 
too many system to accomplish too few tasks 
too complicated 
none 


I'm mainly the customer for this item in my organization, but I've actually been using it for a few years now. I used to use it in the two companies I actually went to. I used to use it to organize the personnel timesheet essentially, but actually almost everything related to personnel control. 
It is not compatible with all mobile devices or is a compatible app for some software, and browser only, which does not work effectively. Slightly unfavorable ROI as it is very commonly used, so it is very easy to locate aid, hence less time spent handling and guarding, but requires handling skill. 
The entire organization uses it for central HCM and basic advantage management. We track employee information and also incorporate it into the payroll. 
I can't believe in any kind of case where PeopleSoft isn't the right thing, as PeopleSoft is really scalable and flexible to one's needs and can be controlled in various ways. Still, PeopleSoft is quite possibly suitable for any type of business or organization that does several fundamental things. 


Oracle PeopleSoft is a long-standing product that covers the basics. It stores a multitude of data fields relevant to HR records management and you can report on any of the data (anything that goes in, can come out via reporting). It may be more appealing to small/mid-size companies due to price, yet it's important to note that it requires quite a bit of internal HRIS and IT support to maintain and customize after implementation. 
Oracle PeopleSoft reporting is not always intuitive. Our HR team members often had to rely on HRIS team members to assist, which is not efficient. It is also lacking GUI, which I think would make the application more user friendly and appealing to non-HR business managers asked to use the application for self-service. 
I used Oracle PeopleSoft to store employee records and begin transitioning business leaders to a self-service model. This saved physical space where paper records would otherwise be stored and self-service created efficiencies related to employee record changes. 


Oracle PeopleSoft was a helpful application because it enable our office at The Ohio State University to adequately archive receipts, invoices, and documents for payment as well as entering journals to easily process cost transfers to difference cost centers in the university. 
Oracle PeopleSoft did not make it easy to locate invoices and supplemental documents to verify if payments had been completed without a specific identifier like a vendor ID or invoice number. Additionally, the journal transfer had to be entered line by line, and no drop-down selections were available to speed up the processing of common journals. 
Oracle PeopleSoft allowed our office to have all accounts payable-related documents and archival options in One Place. For example, using the PR number, we could quickly locate records for different requests in PeopleSoft. We could also enter vendor IDs in PeopleSoft and find the full scale of budget line items for faculty budget reports. 


We can send RFQ through system and vendor can quote directly through our system.
Easy to access PO's and very userfriendly. 
We can access complete volume, purchase history, everything from the start of the software to till date.
Auto source option is very useful 
It is not user-friendly to check the payment options.
AS system run takes a long time, which makes time to process urgent PO's.
Sometimes cancelling PO's has issues. 
I used to process the PO to the vendor and follow up on the delivery.
Time taken to process the PO is significantly less time. 
The dashboard for RFQ. Requisitions. PO's are beneficial to access the items we need very urgently and process them.
Quickly back ordered concerning the vendor acknowledgment through Peoplesoft. 


Oracle PeopleSoft helps to document and track employee information. You add your available hours; employees can add their annual self-evaluation and goal setting. Vacation can be tracked. Simplicity appeals to me mostly, and the training doesn't take long. 
Document uploading can be rather time-consuming as you must patiently try it multiple times. If it is uploaded there successfully, it presses the original file size as a result of which the quality suffers documents become illegible. When the information is lost, you have to insert everything again. 
It was temporary usage unless we started to establish a 1C doc flow for our company. We managed the vacation notices, self-evaluations and KPIs through Oracle PeopleSoft. 


The ability to combine multiple legacy systems into one seamless solution that can interact with end-users on their smart devices. While other solutions can perform many of the same functions, none of them can perform all of the tasks that PeopleSoft can. 
The standard User Interface is not the most visually appealing. 
Nakupuna has spent the last five years building an integrated personnel and pay solution for the United States Navy to replace 55 legacy personnel and payroll systems. A recent successful test produced the largest payroll file with approximately 350K transactions of nearly $1B. The payroll file was transmitted to the Treasury and passed all internal and external edit checks and validations. 


I'm a current user of the application in the organisation im working for. A person who is more into business development will have to travel most of the time. So the application is helping me in noting down my expenses and applying for reimbursements 
The only thing which I don't like about people soft as an application is that it's a time taking process. Here in people soft even though the type of expenses are related we have to apply for it separately which consumes a lot of time. 
It helps me in storing my bills and reminds me the fact that it's very much important to collect and keep all the bills. It also plays a major role in understanding the unnecessary expenses also 


Easy to log and track massive amounts of employee data. Large number of options for reporting and pulling data. Works as well with storing job code and position data. 
UI is not the most modern or intuitive. Sometimes feels like you're working with something designed in the 90s. And although it's nice to have so many reporting options, trying to find the exact report you need can be very disorienting and confusing. 
Works to track employee information and history. For example tracking hire dates, term dates, transfer dates, as well as any updates in personal information and changes (tax status, address changes, etc.)

Works to store job descriptions and information as well. 


Oracle Peoplesoft has decent tools and features for searching for pending and approved purchase orders - as well as reviewing the status of the approval chain or queue. 
Oracle PeopleSoft lacks some modern look & feel.  The page flow and workflows, screens, etc. are clunky and not laid out very intuitively.  This product could use some innovation and improvements overall. 
Ensure that Oracle will provide adequate and timely support. 
Oracle PeopleSoft allows my organization and specific department to streamline the purchasing and contractual processes.  Purchase orders can be reviewed rather easily and prior POs are also easy to find via the search functionality. 


Peoplesoft is one of the best ERP suites in the Market. Its HCM and FSCM are very good products that even with Cloud Migrations and other softwares they are the best in the market 
Peoplesoft HCM, FSCM and CRM are very flexible and customizable. The CRM module has been given a back burner treatment which i dont like. CRM and BORM models of peoplesoft are the best 
Peoplesoft resolves many problems in managing the Customer data with CRM module. Hire to Retire, Payroll and others in HCM Modules. Supply Chain and Finance related problems in FSCM module. Peoplesoft has some other modules like campus solutions and project management as well. 


Oracle PeopleSoft is the best tool for managing employee data. The user interface is very simple, and anyone can understand it easily. I like the feature in PeopleSoft that you can search the employee by their Emp ID, Full Name, First Name, and Last Name. You can also see the history of employee with just one click. 
Sometimes the changes are not saved when you click on the Save button. 
Overall, PeopleSoft is the best HR tool from Oracle. Managing the employee data and updating the data like incentive plans, salary, etc. are very easy with PeopleSoft. 


The presentation of the software is very user-friendly.  I like the features like organization chart, contact details, staff's credentials in particular.  It's an all-in-one people management solution with all the key modules in. 
Integration with other add-on software is not always feasible. We have payroll integrated, but as an add-on but not managed as a module in Oracle. 
It's an all-in-one people management software.  We use it for staff performance management, goal setting, leave application, staff details, etc. 


I love how organized all the processes are and how you can effectively communicate changes to many members. 
I dislike how when you first run it and you search for a client it takes so long to run, but it is indexing through lots of data .I do not speak for my whole company all I can say is my experience with PeopleSoft. 
I am solving the problems of invoicing and collecting data and organizing clients.I do not speak for my whole company but all I can say is my experience with PeopleSoft. 


It's an improvement from our previous payroll system - but that's not saying much since we were using an old school legacy payroll system before. 
When we converted into the peopesoft, there were so many bugs and glitches and it took our team months to resolve. And resolving one thing often led to other issues. 
There has been an issue with vacation reporting hitting the wrong funding for over 2 years and it is still not resolved. Benefits is the data entry is easier than past system? 


It is designed to manage diverse business requirements in one area in a systematic way based on individual employee records 
I have not encountered anything so far which I dont like 
A tool made for Finance, Accounting, and HR to easily track details and provide reports to the management at ease. If this is your requirement, Oracle People Soft is the right place to go 
Looking for various details such as joining date , work development and many more based on individual records 


Capability to customize and configure the software to suit our specific needs. 
Ressonable response to support is difficult and time consuming.  Difficult to maintain the software at current releases when there are numerous customization, but Oracle has implemented new features to help.  Needs to go a little further to simplify upgrades with customizations. 
Helps us manage HR, Finance and Payroll, along with integrating well with Timeclock Plus electronic time collection. 


It was easy to find the information I needed.  Notes were put in linearly and easy to scroll through by date 
There was a year when we were running credit card payments throug Peoplesoft AR and it was taking over 10 minutes to process a payment.  That was resolved by adding additional servers. 
Not sure why Marriott Vacation club migrated away from People soft.  I was quite happy with it as a user. 
It was our storage medium for all of our notes regarding billing. 


Very helpful to be able to create tables of the organization (Org Charts) using employee data already input into the system. 
At times the system runs slowly.  I wish there was a way to eliminate this. 
When I was using the product, it helped solve the problem of having to use multiple systems and methods to track and report on employee information. 


Open easy to use and customisable fields in peoplesoft. It is user friendly and a bit easier than SAP 
User has to toggle between one window to other for changing menu, but it is fine for segregation of work types. 
Super easy tool 
This software is helpful in managing P2P invoices along with a saparate workflow tool for managing invoices 


helpful. easy to use. direct processing and   query run helps to export report directly. 
lengthy with little time taking. separate queries run to be needed for each reporting 
please use it if continues work required and have multiple transactions in a day 
days to say business. financial and accounting activities 


It is easy to navigate and allows users and super users to view available leave credits. 
Some room for user error as the information in the software in only as good as what is entered, but that is standard. 
Providing an electronic time keeping platform which became extremely important during the pandemic. 


Functional  base is wide. Robust platform 
Its kind of obsolete now and functional evolution is kind of limited 
Our HR implementation on peoplesoft has been there for a while - almost 2 decades and its solving most of our HR needs, although a bit obsolete now. 


The software is user friendly and easy to operate 
The software needs some basic training  before getting started 
Recommend using this software since it is user friendly 
Maintaining the wages report (Payroll) 


Easy data retrieval. Can save huge volume data. 
The User Interface is very boring and needs an upgrade. 
The organization has a huge workforce and it helps in storing data at one place. 


Accounting features are ok, not the best 
Pretty much everything. It's bulky and not user-friendly at all 
We need a way to more easily run reports. You cannot do that in PPLSFT. 

It's too hard to use and too much information for required input. 

If you are looking to keep your database secure and have complete control of your information, PeopleSoft is an amazing choice. If you are looking for a straight cloud-based solution, this is probably not the best option.

Ceridian demoed great, but under the hood, PeopleSoft's functionality and usability is hands down a better solution If you are looking to keep your database secure and have complete control of your information, PeopleSoft is an amazing choice. If you are looking for a straight cloud-based solution, this is probably not the best option. On-premise HCM provider.
Excellent at managing time and payroll.
It's very simple to understand with a very easy interface. Scheduling. There is not a robust scheduling offering that is integrated with PeopleSoft.
Provide the ability to release certain elements for access remotely.

Oracle PeopleSoft is probably best suited for employee self-service functions such as benefits enrollment, payroll tax preferences, and other similar HR related features. The financial features and the applicant tracking system are behind other competing business systems. The UI of the system as a whole is not very modern, and not being mobile friendly is a factor here. At the same time, this system is still very comprehensive and best suited for a 1000+ employee organization both due to cost and services. While there have been hiccups over the years of utilizing PeopleSoft our developers and Oracle support have always been available to assist.

Ive used similar products such as Lawson HCM, Dayforce HCM, and Kronos Workforce Management. All products function similarly, but I have not utilized nearly as many out of the box services they offer as I have with PeopleSoft. Lawson and Dayforce have proven to be much more mobile compatible and have a newer user interface that feels like youre in the 21st century as opposed to PeopleSoft. I would argue that both Dayforce and Kronos are better off as ready to use, out of the box, systems. However, this will prevent the means to customize and upgrade to fit business needs as PeopleSoft does living under Oracle.

While there have been hiccups over the years of utilizing PeopleSoft our developers and Oracle support have always been available to assist. The system allows for a lot of customization. Our talent acquisition platform is almost completely customized to communicate with our financial and compensation teams who aide in the position request and approval process. While the updates certainly take time, we utilize Oracle support to make our systems our own in order to meet business needs.
The dashboards are user-friendly both for employees and managers. The self-service features are great tools for allowing employees to set up their payroll and tax preferences, distribute pay stubs, and monitor PTO. For orders or invoice pay requests this is all built in to communicate with our procurement and accounts payable teams. This is a great tool to help effectively get requests through and approved in a hierarchy format.
As a large organization, there is a plethora of information stored and made available to the organization. Having the ability to house so much data and have the system run as quickly as it does is certainly impressive. With such emphasis on less paper trail, this has certainly been a cost-effective means to make information available electronically. Although the customization is a strength, this is largely due to some business systems of PeopleSoft being out of date. The HR system for talent management is pretty poorly designed out of the box. There are updates from Oracle that may have the system more comparable to other popular applicant tracking systems, but ours is fairly bare bones. As a result weve customized this entirely, and unfortunately deal with a fair amount of internal errors. Luckily from the outside our applicants and candidates do not face issues.
Our current PeopleSoft version is not mobile compatible and overall they were behind the ball in implementing mobile friendly systems. As a business and society of always on the go, the inability to effectively utilize all services from a tablet or phone is disappointing. Again, there are rumors of mobile compatibility upgrades, but the upgrade is too pricey for us to take on at this time.
The performance management function was very old fashioned. It was difficult to manage and utilize by both team leaders and employees. Our organization recently removed the performance management function and went with an entirely different system. As a rapidly changing and evolving business strategy the check a box and numerical rating on individual performance was not adaptable to a more personalized goal setting performance review process.

Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is very well suited when you want to deploy an HCM system company-wide spanning multiple regulatory jurisdictions. Oracle HCM codifies the labor laws and related processes for most major countries out of the box. Talent management module is specifically well suited for a global workforce. In general, Oracle PeopleSoft HCM  is great when you want one vendor for all of HCM modules.

For organizations that are mostly based out of EMEA, SAP SuccessFactors is better at covering all the details about labor laws and employment management. But for organizations - mid to large - that span both NA and EMEA, Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is much better both in support provided post purchase and overall functionality. Workday Human Capital Management has better UI and feels more modern compared to Oracle HCM but it lacks some of the functionality that is needed for large enterprises. Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is very well suited when you want to deploy an HCM system company-wide spanning multiple regulatory jurisdictions. Oracle HCM codifies the labor laws and related processes for most major countries out of the box. Talent management module is specifically well suited for a global workforce. In general, Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is great when you want one vendor for all of HCM modules. Oracle PeopleSoft HCM does very well in customization of the forms and policies that span multiple jurisdictions including NA, EMEA and APAC.
It also includes the most up-to-date compliance and recruiting related processes, needing relatively minimal customization (consulting resources) before deploying across multiple geographies.
It integrates very well with Oracle BI (being used) as well as Oracle Financial application to make it easy to manage all financial management and HCM functions. The UI for Oracle PeopleSoft HCM is still not 'sophisticated' compared to other HCM vendors and can certainly be improved to make it look more modern.
Oracle PeopleSoft HCM can do a better job in making notifications and actions related to labor rules, time tracking and workforce management taste more automated using AI. It has some basic automated action but all needs to be set upfront during deployment.
Better use of Oracle BI/analytics to provide more insights into the overall recruitment process from interview to onboarding.

Well suited for companies where HR environment is stable, no competition for talent and with capital budget constraints. Also for companies that customized the environment so much, that moving to a new platform requires significant investments. Not perfect for companies in fast-moving industries fighting for talent and companies that need very good analytics regarding the workforce.

[It's] Used companywide for people management, onboarding new employees, pay, and performance management. Also used for contractor management. Our HCM instance runs separately and connects to PeopleSoft Financial Services used by the finance department. Using version 9.1, which reached end of life and [we're] in process of deciding to upgrade or look for a new solution. Well suited for companies where HR environment is stable, no competition for talent and with capital budget constraints. Also for companies that customized the environment so much, that moving to a new platform requires significant investments. Not perfect for companies in fast-moving industries fighting for talent and companies that need very good analytics regarding the workforce. Solid ERP, with a strong record for mid to large companies. Includes most required HCM and payroll business capabilities with good ratio cost versus functionality.
Easy access to knowledge and availability of consultants to help evolve, upgrade, and manage. Oracle vision for support including C2C (customer to cloud).
No more major upgrades after version 9.2, only incremental ones as per customer needs. Long term support policy from Oracle.
Strong attachment from existing customers. Market analysis indicates significant number of clients choose to stay with PeopleSoft despite a significant list of new offerings in the HCM space. Not a user-friendly interface, it needs getting used to. Version 9.2 improved the user experience.
Talent Management function is sub-optimal especially in the ability to create and revise descriptions, and flexible compensation systems (some functions need to be developed externally and integrated). Acquisition of Taleo by Oracle may indicate no plans to improve this further in PeopleSoft HCM.
Oracle's roadmap for PeopleSoft needs to be better explained. Present communications created confusion related to future of PeopleSoft.

While the PS HCM product more or less meets our current needs, Oracle's message in recent years has been cloud, cloud, cloud, leading one to the conclusion that innovation in the PS HCM space will be minimal in the future.  Oracle hasn't outlined a clear path to get to their cloud offering from PS HCM.

We're beginning to look at SaaS offerings that will eventually replace PS HCM. Oracle's Cloud and WorkDay are the products we're most likely to consider, though others may join the market by the time we start in-depth research. When we selected the PS HCM product in 1999, the primary competition was Banner HR. While the PS HCM product more or less meets our current needs, Oracle's message in recent years has been cloud, cloud, cloud, leading one to the conclusion that innovation in the PS HCM space will be minimal in the future. Oracle hasn't outlined a clear path to get to their cloud offering from PS HCM. Payroll processing has been stable for the entire time we've used HCM and generally has the flexibility to handle a variety of situations we encounter in paying students, faculty and staff, including many cases of multiple jobs.
Self-service using the classic pages has worked well for us and has relieved HR staff from answering many questions individually.
The PeopleTools technology framework has allowed us to add new capabilities not supported by the product, including creating a way for managers of student workers to hire them without HR involvement. We have issues with students using Time & Labor for multiple jobs, where time is incorrectly calculated, including negative balances where none exist.
The application is complex and some areas, especially Time & Labor, are very difficult to troubleshoot. The overall level of complexity has increased over the years.
We also use Campus Solutions and had to split apart HCM and CS, significantly increasing our maintenance overhead and creating inter-system issues that aren't always resolvable.
Campus Solutions has developed a solution for managing preferred names and gender identity that is missing/ incompatible with the HCM product.

The market is all about cloud. I'm not sure anyone should be implementing PS HCM at this point without strongly considering HCM Cloud.  In regards to 9.2 over older versions, I would say this upgrade would be of value if a cloud move is 5+ years out.  PS HCM is not a system that I hear is often rolled out vanilla meaning a strong development team is likely needed.

We have implemented the PS HCM across our organization of 15,000+ employees and 5,000+ non-employees. This is our single HCM solution. While other applications do interface, we consider our PS HCM instance as our source of truth. The ability to integrate with PS HCM is a driver in shaping other investments that we make going forward. The market is all about cloud.

We have a solution which has been tailored to meet our specific needs.
Our PS solution is quite stable. Our dependency on the vendor is minimal with most 'issues' being handled in-house.
The new 9.2 architecture has improved the way we upgrade. Our staff spends less time implementing new features and bug fixes. This allows us to focus on many of the things we've been unable to get to over the last few years. The UI for PS is not end-user friendly. It often comes across as clunky or technical in nature. We have deployed other products that sit atop of our instance to combat this.
The future of PS HCM is short. We know we need to gear up for cloud but exactly what that roadmap looks like is not yet clear.
Heavily customized PS HCM makes us vulnerable and often unsupported. New features are, at times, lengthy to implement as it causes significant re-work on our end. Visibility and alignment between Oracle Roadmap and our Roadmap is difficult.

Be sure to have a clear understanding of which modules are needed by the company and how those modules integrate with others in the enterprise (i.e. finance). Also, companies should make sure they clearly understand the cost implications of choosing to add or not add a module. The scope of implementation ideally should be done in conjunction with other business modules. Also, the company should have a clear understanding of how much customization they are willing to pay for versus using the product "out of the box".

As long as you invest the time and resources to keep a current version Peoplesoft is a useful tool compared to other enterprise software options.

System is designed and tested for large and small organizations alike
Strong reporting capability
Ability for integration with other functional areas like finance This feature may be available on other modules, but with the version we use there is not the ability to keep and take notes during the recruiting process. Other versions at previous companies have allowed for this feature.
This may be a function of how our company utilizes the system, but we enjoy the ability to run and save different customized reports. However, the report library can become very full with customized reports and there does not seem to be an easy way to manage all the reports.
The interface can be difficult to follow especially for newer users. For instance, if I am trying to look up an employee's salary, should I go to the "Workforce Administration" tab or the "Compensation" tab. The basic information can be found on the employee's summary page but navigating all of the menu options can be confusing.

It is well suited to a very large enterprise with a lot of Employee actions, turnover, benefit packages and other details to track. 
It is not appropriate for a small or even medium-sized business with straightforward benefits and only a few job titles or actions to track. 

For example, a University with hundreds of jobs and actions like Sabbaticals, paid leaves, administrative leaves, probation, etc. requires a system as robust and complex as PeopleSoft HCM. This makes it worth the expense.

UC Berkeley uses Oracle PeopleSoft HCM across the whole organization, as the enterprise Human Resources (HR) system of record for all HR and Payroll actions. It is well suited to a very large enterprise with a lot of Employee actions, turnover, benefit packages and other details to track.

For example, a University with hundreds of jobs and actions like Sabbaticals, paid leaves, administrative leaves, probation, etc. requires a system as robust and complex as PeopleSoft HCM. This makes it worth the expense. PeopleSoft HCM captures detailed information about each employee in the organization, based on a variety of fields and effective dates.
PeopleSoft HCM is able to capture and track Position information for budgeting and planning purposes, separate from the Employee information.
PeopleSoft HCM can handle very detailed and complicated benefit plans.
PeopleSoft HCM allows for flexible reporting off of relational tables. The reporting feature is not intuitive for basic users. It requires someone a little more advanced to set up queries and save them for other users.
PeopleSoft HCM is very expensive and implementation is complex and challenging.
PeopleSoft HCM is not very intuitive to use. It requires training and a well documented and defined business process to ensure the fields are used correctly to get the most out of the system, particularly when it comes to reporting.

Oracle HCM is really very functional and can help remove a lot of the mundane filing and approving tasks for both HR, employees and approvers. It is easy to use and very intuitive. I can understand why the resources needed to run it could be substantial, especially for those who still run on-premise. Maybe a less appropriate use would be for smaller (less than 100) companies because of cost. Maybe the cloud version would work better.

We use Oracle across the organization of about 4000-5000 employees. It allows automation in terms of general HR functions (leaves, benefits, employee management, performance management, etc). It allows control of subordinates and gives us a landscape of performance metrics for each employee reporting to leaders. It can also help in guiding employee growth.

It allows me to see "allowed" views of staff reporting to me
It allows me to control and file leaves, sick leaves and vacations easily
It allows me to plan my leaves tentatively
It allows staff to apply for clearance on exiting the company
It allows promotion requests online. Would want SMS integration for filing and approving leaves for those who don't have smartphones
Email filing of leaves and approvals, not only in the system
Easier integration with biometric devices

User interface needs improvement. The new FLUID functionality that Oracle is offering may be the potential solution.
Menu navigation may be difficult for new users.
Very compatible and stable application.
Multi tab feature is excellent.
Analytics is a powerful feature.
Database access gives us ability to create or generate custom integrations or SQL.
Needs to be mobile friendly.

PeopleSoft HCM was used for core HR, benefits and compensation side of our organization. It was being used by the HR Department. The biggest struggles we have had were based on the merit cycle and talent management or performance management modules. User interface needs improvement. The new FLUID functionality that Oracle is offering may be the potential solution.
Menu navigation may be difficult for new users.
Very compatible and stable application.
Multi tab feature is excellent.
Analytics is a powerful feature.
Database access gives us ability to create or generate custom integrations or SQL.
Needs to be mobile friendly. Easy to use and learn.
It's inhouse and hence we can write code or SQL or modify or generate integrations using custom SQL.
Ability to view multiple screens at once was a great plus, which we see in many systems, however first saw that on PeopleSoft.
Great customer support. Compensation module definitely needs improvement.
Talent management - Goals and Performance management module needs improvement.
Running of ben interface overnight everyday consumes timeout each day. There should be no service interruption while running ben interfaces. It was maybe only us due to many customizations.

The product really does well with a human resource department in a small to medium employee base. It offers a fairly solid set of reporting tools that help track transactions or employee changes. The product also provides a fairly concise and clean flow of information with a one-stop portal type page. It can also help reduce paper usage with employee records.

We reviewed a number of comparable software solutions and ended up choosing Peoplesoft HCM due to its features, solid platform, and the backing of Oracle. The product outshined others with its integrated portal, flexibility with user group access, and the ability to use the product for different purposes. The product also offered better scalability to meet the increased demands of large employee pools down the road.

Offers monetary transactions and moderate financial reporting
Offers a one portal suite solution where most information can be gleaned on one screen The interface could be improved with better click through processes
The system can be slow at times
For some end users, it can be a little difficult to use

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.

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.

Good customer support
Ability to write custom reports for ongoing projects The UI is a little antiquated
Somewhat expensive leveraging the app
Security concerns with recent vulnerabilities being exposed

Out of the box, good for small companies that may not have complex compliance issues.  Large companies will need high levels of customization.

Taleo - Not happy with the product. Out of the box, good for small companies that may not have complex compliance issues. Large companies will need high levels of customization. For me, the reporting aspects of the product provide a lot of value. The ability to access data for my entire department quickly helps me find data for specific data calls in an efficient manner.
We've recently gone through a reorganization and the product performed very well when moving resources between teams.
A module that we developed (eCOMP) seamlessly pulls data and provides users with salary recommendations that tie to our overall corporate pay strategy. When the reorganziation occurred, when selecting an employees new organziation, I was required to type in the 'data field' vs. the common name of the group. This was cumbersome and cost time. This process could be made more efficient.
When using the product to see my entire organization, there are times when use of the back button on my browser causes issues, and the data isn't refreshed properly.
I would like to have the ability to customize the standard reports that are available in the application.

PeopleSoft is a very mature product which has been stable and mature for the last 20 years.  It has a solid payroll system. At the end of the day, it's all about payroll!

On the other hand, PeopleSoft is considered a legacy system due to the old data model and lack of investment and support from Oracle. PeopleSoft is not a good  candidate for a cloud product since it does NOT offer flexible configurable options compared to Oracle HCM Cloud.

PeopleSoft customization has created an issue for customers to move to cloud while trying to keep the functions Oracle HCM cloud might be lacking. However, due to Oracle sunsetting the Taleo performance, we have started the cloud journey with the Oracle Talent Management cloud after comparing different cloud providers such as Workday.

If you have limited variations of employees and benefit plans, I think the system could function well.  When you have many employee categories with different rules and plans, it does not function as well.

N/A. I was not involved in the review. If you have limited variations of employees and benefit plans, I think the system could function well. When you have many employee categories with different rules and plans, it does not function as well. Job Data works well within PeopleSoft. The payroll function runs smoothly.
Batch processing runs smoothly and is easy to develop as we identify needs for tracking new information and asking our divisions to provide information for mass upload. The Time and Absence module is quite clunky and is definitely a place for improvement. Asking people to review, track, and approve time in the current module is hard to do. People have built many shadow systems to deal with this.
The upgrade to 9.2 does not seem to have added improvements, and in some ways made the system less functional. The changes were not explained in a way that showed how they were positive.
The system does not allow for the concept of a 0% FTE, which I think it more common than they think.

The biggest thing I'd look for is seamless integration within PeopleSoft and any talent management system used for recruiting and selection.

n/a The biggest thing I'd look for is seamless integration within PeopleSoft and any talent management system used for recruiting and selection. When using PeopleSoft to process new hires, it does "talk" rather seamlessly to our TMS. Whatever is input into the TMS is what feeds over to PeopleSoft, so it does help if it's accurate. If not, it's easy to fix.
There are different areas that we can go into on PeopleSoft, whether it be having to place employees on leave, or terminating employees, or changing pay. Each area has a distinctive place it goes into PeopleSoft.
When employees enter into PeopleSoft to change information, it's easy to use, and the changes are seen and processed right away. I would like to see an option of adding a quick-access "favorites" item so that I don't need to enter each individual area, then enter what I'm looking for. I tend to use the same part of PeopleSoft often, it'd be nice to just click and go.

Well suited for large organizations where business change is managed well, and where there are minimal exceptions to policies and processes.It is not appropriate for small organizations (less than 300 employees) because the cost of support is high.

Data extraction and training end users to create queries are much easier in PeopleSoft HCM because of the denormalized data design. Well suited for large organizations where business change is managed well, and where there are minimal exceptions to policies and processes.It is not appropriate for small organizations (less than 300 employees) because the cost of support is high. Flexibility in handling multiple concurrent assignments.
ePerformance and Time & Labor are highly configurable
We are also using Contract Pay for a group of employees. Once the bugs have been addressed, it is a great solution to our business needs. Limited functionality on Profile management and Career Development
There should be better integration between core HR and Time and Labor
Alert notifications are not easy to implement.

Oracle Peoplesoft HCM is good for larger companies who need an enterprise-wide solution. I think it is a bit too large and vast for smaller companies.

The other systems seem more user friendly and engaging- they look fresh and not boring. They seem to have better mobile capabilities and ability to have better reporting. We selected Peoplesoft because we have had it a long time, but we definitely want to get to the cloud Oracle Peoplesoft HCM is good for larger companies who need an enterprise-wide solution. I think it is a bit too large and vast for smaller companies. Well known and long standing in the industry
Making advancements in Cloud (Oracle)
Having their modules all connected
Easy to integrate Needs to have more focus on the future- especially cloud, and look at competitors like Workday in terms of User Experience (the system isn't as engaging and user-friendly as it could be)
Needs better reporting capability

PeopleSoft is being used across the entire organization - university setting. It is used to manage student applications, financial aid, employee data, payroll, and nearly every other aspect of people at the university.

It is NOT used as a CRM for tracking prospective students to the university though, Hobson's Radius is used for that. It also is not used for graduate applications; we use Terra Dotta for managing those applications. It works well for large organizations Handles alarge amount of students, employees, and people The system is not as intuitive for end users. They know their own functional areas after training, but needing to use other parts of the system can be a learning curve.

Absence management is fairly simple to understand; it provided an easy way for employees to see their balances, and to request time off.

Ultimately the university decided to go with PageUp for onboarding. Absence management is fairly simple to understand; it provided an easy way for employees to see their balances, and to request time off. It stores all basic biodemo data for all persons in our HCM, CS, and Financials systems
Effective dating logic is fairly robust, yet easy to understand
Table structure is relatively straightforward Our users have expressed concerns about talent acquisition functionality, ended up going with another vendor

Highly recommend for large organizations. Can be a little too overwhelming for smaller companies.

Highly recommend for large organizations. Can be a little too overwhelming for smaller companies. Enabled us to install a first class HR system that can be accessed by our staff from all locations.
Workforce Management enable us to forecast, deploy, track and manage our labor, cut costs and increase productivity.
Financials enabled us to streamline our reporting and analysis giving a comprehensive view of our operations. Compensation was not robust enough to manage our complex compensation processes.
