Oracle PeopleSoft

PeopleSoft is the system I use daily to fulfill my daily tasks in higher education

Kommentare: Fulfilling my daily tasks in my position of higher education more easily than with other systems, This software is most important to my job.

Vorteile:

The versatility of the system and ease of use makes my daily tasks in higher education quicker. I use this system everyday to help my students navigate their educational goals. I use it to run reports, admit students, track students, and advise students.

Nachteile:

The system can be cumbersome in some aspects of it's use in terms of areas speaking to one another, but over all there are not many cons to list.

Good software with lots of reporting functions.

Kommentare: Robust software with great reporting and streamlined processes.

Vorteile:

Integrated with online applications well, great reporting options and easy export to Excel. Process is streamlined and easy to enter notes, add orders, customers, etc.

Nachteile:

Reporting is great but seems to be hard for many people to grasp as there are so many options to choose from when running a report. Does let you save reports but if you need to tweak, most people need a Subject Matter Expert to help them.

People soft

Kommentare: Since there are many new softwares available that offer more options, people soft is probably loosing its market share.

Vorteile:

It is easy and simple to use.I have used this software to record work time and vacations.

Nachteile:

No option to email record directly from software . A file shall be downloaded first and then email it to your desired email address.

Difficult to learn at first but full of info

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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).

Good holistic HRIS

Kommentare: 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.

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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

Oracle Review

Kommentare: 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.

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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

Makes payroll hassle-free!

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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.

Not intuitive and difficult to navigate

Vorteile:

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

Nachteile:

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.

PeopleSoft HR

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

Vorteile:

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

Nachteile:

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

Effective System for HR departments

Kommentare: This application has eased personnel management & provided a secure platform for HR data.

Vorteile:

The employee information and details get consolidated into one system. Tracking time attendance, overtime became is easy and clear. Can be integrated with the payroll system The system is reliable and works seamlessly on Oracle servers. The database is highly secure.

Nachteile:

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

User-friendly HR software

Kommentare: Great so far!

Vorteile:

Easy to use for my daily HR reporting on timesheets, requesting leave and keeping track of my employment data

Nachteile:

Could be more interactive by adding a chatbot

Frequent Ocracle PeopleSoft User Review

Vorteile:

I like how the applications allow my team to run reports with regularity, accessing various database metrics critical for evaluation.

Nachteile:

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.

Long-term human resource management systems

Kommentare: 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.

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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.

Clunky and Slow

Vorteile:

You can add frequently used reports or screens to your My Favorites list for easy access. The Worklist functionality makes it easy to see what PTRs (Personnel Transaction Requests) are awaiting your action.

Nachteile:

PeopleSoft is clunky and slow. I spend so much of my day watching the blue loading icon cycle. The reports have long names that aren't very intuitive, e.g. Commit Accting Cross-Reference shows you what positions are currently assigned to a particular account. There are hundreds of different roles to be able to view, create, and approve different requests. The role titles and descriptions are confusing, and they aren't grouped by job function. Whenever you hire a new person, it's exhausting to figure out what roles they will need to perform their job.

ERP on Overdrive

Kommentare: The software suites are totally integrated, and reporting is a breeze. The user community is large and stretches from most industry. The global country codes make the ERP easier to work with minor config changes.

Vorteile:

I like the Oracle suite of software as all their modules are integrated. If you are working on the LMS you do not have to worry about reentering data back into the system as HCM module has already sync through daily batch processes. Customer support and white pages are helpful in troubleshooting issues and resolving problems from other solutions provided. The software application is easily customizable, but if you opt for the cloud solution this may not be as available as the on-premise.

Nachteile:

The software suites as a whole are expensive, with more competition such as Workday, Ellucian Banner, Microsoft Dynamics the competition is furious. The ERP will require an army of support staff such as Business Analyst, Database Analyst, Report Analyst and System Analyst which is very expensive. However, if you select the cloud versions than you may see additional savings.

Hidden Menus Make Favorites a Necessity

Kommentare: I have only been at the company for less than 6 months yet I can still see where this software helps the college work through the entire student experience from enrollment, financial aid, transcript evaluations, etc.

Vorteile:

This software is designed to handle the college needs. It does this in simple, easy to read screens with large fonts. If a user finds it hard to remember the location of screen within hidden menus, there is the option of creating a customized list of favorites. The majority of the tasks I do throughout the day are easy to handle with PeopleSoft.

Nachteile:

The view Customer Account screen is awful. It doesn't follow the basic chart of accounts and order of credit/debits paid on students original balance. When credits are applied to the students' account, it makes it a challenge to identify where all the money was applied. There are many hidden functions and this takes a separate training session to learn.

PEOPLESOFT

Kommentare: I started off using a DOS mainframe system until we upgraded to PeopleSoft. It was almost like comparing apples to oranges, but now I see it is really like comparing mandarin oranges to big, juicy naval oranges!

Vorteile:

I think one of the best features about PeopleSoft is its ability to manage large amounts of data/records. I’ve been using it now for over a decade and it can do so much more now than it could 10 years ago. I also love being able to find data using queries. If you have someone who knows how to write queries in PeopleSoft there isn’t anything you can’t find – if it has a header Field you can find it – it might take a few JOINs to get at the data, but it’s doable!

Nachteile:

One of the things that I like least about PeopleSoft is it isn’t very intuitive sometimes. I know it is a database system and I know that it is a hierarchy database system, but sometimes it just seems like the navigation to get to a particular page or record is less than logical.

Peoplesoft really a good Software and Good for Business outcomes

Kommentare: Talking about overall Ecperince i am good with Oracle Peoplesoft. many good features available to use and implement. Price wise, I'm not happy with Oracle People soft.

I have used Oracle Peoplesoft for 4-5 years and find this very good and easy to use. There are many modules we can use as per out business requirements.

Nachteile:

Some issue with the reporting dashboard and integration with another application.

Web-based programming for processing requisitions and purchase orders and HR tracking.

Kommentare: 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.

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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.

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

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

Students also have access to their data at a click of a mouse.
