### "Difficult to learn at first but full of info"

December 5, 2018

5.0

Pros

This program has so much information in it once you learn it. After 4 years of using it, i am still amazed when i learn more. It's a love hate thing lol. It helps me to save favorites, then i don't have to remember so many paths.

Cons

That there are so many paths to remember. And since the most recent update or so, it no longer shows the bread crumbs on top. So when i am training others, it's not possible to follow them (breadcrumbs).

### "Peoplesoft has made managing employees super easy. The customization features are excellent"

March 14, 2018

5.0

It helped manage employee profiles, benefits, talent, and performance management.

Pros

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.

Cons

This product is primarily for bigger organizations, which means that the cost is too expensive for the smaller companies.

### "Good holistic HRIS "

December 11, 2018

4.0

Very good and Oracle provides a holistic suite of options which makes this a nice product to have if you are thinking about going to one vendor for all needs.

Pros

The ability to manage all HR needs - compensation, performance, reporting, HRIS, etc. It was a very powerful tool as well and had lots of ability to create custom fields for extensive reporting capabilities.

Cons

The interface, especially the reporting query portal, was difficult to learn and navigate.

### "Solid product!"

September 19, 2018

4.0

Pros

The system is not flashy but it gets the job done. I used it at the University I worked at to track students grades, classes, financial info, etc. Once you learn how to navigate the system (which isn't too difficult) you have access to a lot information quickly.

Cons

There was a little bit of a learning curve as you get used to the system. However, once you understand the functionality, it's very useful.

### "Oracle Review"

May 18, 2019

5.0

Oracle is simple to use, but it make a big impact on every day life in Accounting. Because of Oracle, journal uploads don't take as much time as before. It's also very simple to run any ad-hoc reports in Oracle.

Pros

I have used Oracle to initiate and post journal entries, run GL and generate reports. It's easy to use and makes searching for journal entries, uploading, reviewing, posting very simple.

Cons

There isn't anything I don't like about Oracle.

### "Oracle era bom"

July 18, 2021

5.0

Pros

A Oracle como um todo era bom, pratico, acessível, bem detalhado e com seu site bem simples e de fácil acesso.

Cons

Atualmente está muito desorganizado, praticamente tudo é cobrado, e com valores realmente absurdos, este foi um dos motivos para que eu abandona-se minha pratica de programação em java, uma vez q a oracle detém direitos sobre algumas ferramentas essenciais para programar em java.

### "Makes payroll hassle-free!"

March 1, 2018

5.0

Pros

The fact you can upload time in various ways to this platform is incredibly helpful. We would accept time via the platform feed, fax, email, etc. This is crucial when dealing with timekeeping methods from various clients.

Cons

I would love for there to be a communication system built in, perhaps notes or something of this nature. And for those to be tied to the payroll record.

### "Terrible interfacing, glitchy"

January 16, 2020

2.0

Pros

I am required to use this software to interact with Legal Aid as a private lawyer. The only positive thing that I can say is that it is relatively simple in its interface.

Cons

Navigation is absolutely terrible. If using the back button in browser, the session usually times out or glitches, requiring a fresh login. Navigation can be quite confusing and difficult.

### "Good, but Complex."

January 29, 2019

4.0

Great data and storage capacity, comes in handy when searching for students profile information. Very secure and dependable.

Pros

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.

Cons

It's difficult to navigate if you don't know what you're doing. Firstime users may find it to be a bit complex.

### "Not intuitive and difficult to navigate "

March 12, 2018

3.0

Pros

There are many different categories where you can find and store information about different accounts.

Cons

Peoplesoft my be a fine software, but it should not be used for higher education administration. It is lacking in clarity, functionality and both administrative and student facing functionality. It's also hard to edit anything on this software.

### "Great for Large Organization"

November 27, 2018

4.0

I've worked at several companies that use PeopleSoft for general HR purposes, like time sheets, payroll and finance, employee information, etc. I think it generally works really well for these things. It's not a pretty interface, and it looks kind of bare bones, but it does exactly what you need it to do. There was one glitch where a certain routing number for a bank was showing up with the wrong bank name, causing some payroll issues a couple years ago, but the company was responsive in fixing it, so it's not ongoing.

Pros

Easy to navigate, well organized, categorization works great, fast, many features available for large numbers of employees, possibility to designate different access for different employees.

Cons

The interface looks rather primitive, and it might not be cost effective for smaller organizations.

### "PeopleSoft HR"

December 5, 2019

4.0

I've worked with PeopleSoft for over 25 years, it's evolved exponentially and continues to serve its purpose every day!

Pros

Accessibility, ease of use and ability to customize as needed. I find the self-service options useful as well.

Cons

Query tool is not intuitive to general user. Creating and modifying queries requires technical expertise that the general user does not have.

### "Fairly seamless with training"

March 7, 2018

4.0

Pros

It serves as an effective database for my company. Once trained on how to enter information and pull certain information out - metrics can be easy to review.

Cons

End users don't necessarily have the ability to customize reporting. Special requests have to be made but that could be the way that my company has it configured.

Customizing the software to fit the requirements of the HR department took over a year. The support contract is expensive.

### "Missing Things"

August 9, 2018

3.0

Pros

I like that you get to use the whole screen and save your favorite pathways. The ease of saving and the ability to change the title so you remember what it is.

Cons

I don’t like how we have to go to so many screens to see all the information for a student. I wish you could pull up the student and see everything.

September 11, 2018

4.0

Pros

There is a lot of functionality. You can manage people on every level, from hiring to retirement and everything in between.

Cons

There are a lot of modules that you can. Depending on your technology level, it can be easy to use or very difficult. You need the right staff that are properly trained.

### "Difficult implementation, but very robust"

September 25, 2020

5.0

It is a fully baked HRIS system that requires extensive buisiness analyst knowledge to implement. But once implemented, hard to switch to a different system.

Pros

Very robust tools and I like the data structure. From a vanilla implementation perspective, it's very clean as an HRIS system. The modules are straightforward and there is a lot of spec documentation available.

Cons

Customization is a beast. A lot of testing involved an depending on the consultants you have, may be a pain to customize from vanilla Peoplesoft.

### "Very cool program! Allowing users to integrate Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and more. I would recom"

May 10, 2018

5.0

Pros

What I enjoyed most about this software, was again; the user-interface. Allowing me to upload back up spreadsheets for review.

Cons

The least thing I valued about this software, was the look. Maybe at the time that I used this; but it seemed very mundane. Lack of colors and dialog boxes!

### "Well past its prime"

March 12, 2019

2.0

Pros

Back in the day, PeopleSoft was among the most robust HR systems around. Still today it can be incredibly robust though it tends to be more outdated than other solutions available now.

Cons

Although Oracle still says they are committed to PeopleSoft for the foreseeable future, they are pumping way more money into their other HR solutions and spending less and less on development and bug fixes for PeopleSoft. While you can report on pretty much anything you want, the built in reporting/query capability is clunky at best, especially when you compare it to some of the newer HR systems (including other Oracle products).

### "PeopleSoft the way of the People "

April 26, 2022

4.0

I am a user since 2014 , the software is an integral part of my day to day work functions. PeopleSoft has streamlined our institutions daily functions. I.E. Student Accounts, Satisfactory Academic Process, Access to Unit Loads, all the essential data that an institution needs to better serve it's students. Students also have access to their data at a click of a mouse.

Pros

Accessibility , user friendly, collaborative , our students information access, and ability to review and resolve issues.

Cons

Some students find it difficult to use , It would be better if tutorials were better presented and distributed to student users
