SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite vs NEOGOV: Which is a better fit?

Justin: Hi, my name's Justin. I'm a Senior Manager II of talent acquisition for Capgemini Engineering, and I would rate SAP SuccessFactors HXM as a four out of five. So previous to SAP SuccessFactors, we were using a number of different applications. And that was the main issue and pain point, was that they didn't hand off to one another or talk to one another. So that was ADP Workforce Now, Taleo Oracle edition, and then also two homegrown proprietary systems that we were using for onboarding as well as workforce management. So the reason that we chose SAP SuccessFactors was, in a post-COVID world, you really have to have the ability to, in a remote manner, engineer and manage the whole employee lifecycle. And we thought that SAP SuccessFactors certainly allowed us to do that and configure the system to our needs and specs. So configuring SAP SuccessFactors was pretty painless. We had the help of both our internal team as well as our client success and implementation teams at SAP. The pain point that we had was the user adoption. It is something that allows you to have the full lifecycle view, so getting the team acclimated to being able to find what they needed at any given time, as well as make it muscle memory to really utilize it to all of its capacity was our main pain point. We've overcome that now. We just finished our first annual performance management lifecycle. And it went very smoothly, so it was a win in the end. The recommendation I would have for anyone considering SAP SuccessFactors for their business is to certainly put the due diligence and time in upfront, have an idea of what you want it to look and feel like, so that the usability is something that doesn't get in the way of what it's meant for, which is to have that full lifecycle view, and truly utilize it as a payroll performance management and applicant tracking system. If you think about that all upfront and you're prepared to do the due diligence and put some time in to configure the system, it really is a value add for your organization and, most importantly, for your employees.

Jason: Hi, my name is Jason. I am a Lieutenant. I give NEOGOV a five out of five. And for more reviews like this, please click below. I work in the government industry, and obviously we need a streamlined approach to recruiting, hiring, and onboarding of new employees. And NEOGOV has really helped bring that all together in a very streamlined process. What I like most about NEOGOV is the fact that it is cloud based. We no longer have to keep a huge amount of paper files on hand for new applicants and job processes. We're able to manage a lot of the stuff in the cloud. It's easily accessible if we have employees working remote and handling background checks and setting up parts of the testing process, and it really helps out on that end. I really don't have much to say in the negative aspect about NEOGOV. I was not part of the decision making process to bring that on to our organization, and I really didn't have much training provided to me when I started using NEOGOV, but it was rather an easy system and program to pick up on my own, and really has helped save us some time and provided some different ways to access recruiting and testing materials for remote workers.
