  ### 9. From the perspective of an Oracle Learn Cloud business owner

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Utilities | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2023

**What do you like best about Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo)?**

Most of the core HR functions are intuitive enough for general learners

**What do you dislike about Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo)?**

Oracle Learn Cloud isn't designed in the way that a learning professional would design it; it works OK with professional development, but because it breaks the rules of good instructional design, it doesn't work well for regulatory learning and compliance.  Specializations don't have recurring learning.  Assignments dictate the business rhythm of the course, not the course itself.  You keep changing the capabilities of communities which breaks significant compliance issues.  Support answers "works as designed" and closes SRs frequently...it feels like they do this to play with their metrics and make their response look better than it really is.

**What problems is Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The ability to deliver all sorts of learning (video, PDF, SCORM, AICC)

  ### 10. User interface could be better

**Reviewed by:** Path M. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**What do you like best about Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo)?**

Performance and Compensation work very well. With the AI assist its going to be even better

**What do you dislike about Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo)?**

The user interface is not so intuitive. I learnt that with Redwood its going to look different so looking forward to it

**What problems is Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The older application Taleo is giving us issues techinically as well as on the service level.
