"Reliable All-in-One HR Solution for Large Companies"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Oracle PeopleSoft?

For such a large company, it’s impressive how all pay, benefits, and employee records are managed in one dependable system. It takes care of complicated tasks behind the scenes, so I don’t have to worry about them, which is a real relief. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle PeopleSoft?

The system feels outdated and cumbersome. Even basic tasks require too many steps, making the experience inefficient. The self-service features can be particularly frustrating for employees, and overall, the interface is far from intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Still the most difficult to use ERP I have ever seen, no matter how much they 'upgrade' it"

0.5/5

What do you like best about Oracle PeopleSoft?

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 repeatedly throughout a 27-year career, 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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle PeopleSoft?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Oracle PeopleSoft:

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! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Oracle PeopleSoft solving and how is that benefiting you?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"All about Peoplesoft"

4/5

What do you like best about Oracle PeopleSoft?

The best thing about peoplesoft is to view monthly or yearly billable time summary for each client to view total hours booked during the year. Further, there is a comment option for each day time so that one could note the status of work done along with areas of tasks performed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle PeopleSoft?

It is somehow time taking. One cannot reset punch in time on the same day in order to rectify the same in case of error or mistake. Further one has to punch in location for each day in order to submit timesheet for the day which is a little annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
