## Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo) Reviews
  ### 1. 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)

  ### 2. Used Taleo at 2 different global organizations

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2023

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

I think Taleo is useful because I grew up using DOS based systems. I do think if can be figured out relatively easy for "most" chores or action items that you will have to complete.

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

Taleo is antiquated, the user interface is awful and not intuitive at all, our company has invest a lot of money trying to get Taleo up to snuff with no to minimal luck

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

Taleo is presently solving all of our ATS needs from Applicant tracking, to candidate tracking and requisition management. We also can use Taleo as a boolean search

  ### 3. Very non-intuitive, triples load on self-assessment procedures

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** April 23, 2015

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

Everything that is connected with human resources can be inside Taleo.

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

Their assessment procedure for the remote offices is awful. You never know what was done in a wrong way that doesn't let you, as the top-/mid-manager to check reporting managers' forms completed online. You should start from scratch or ask your experienced colleagues to help you or even... help them. Your boss, for example.

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

Self-assessment and grades for the directly managed employees, recruiting and resignation.

  ### 4. Applicant Tracking System

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** August 07, 2018

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

Taleo has several cons however some of the pros of the ATS is the compatibility with other systems we use. Such as our background provider. 

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

The platform is not user friendly and an application takes roughly 23 mins. This is becoming more and more unacceptable to candidates. The system does not work well as a CRM and basic searches in the system aren't useful.

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

We currently use Taleo as our ATS. We review applications, submit offer letters, etc. However, we've found that it is not the best investment we've made. 

  ### 5. Oracle’s Taleo ATS is a terrible product 

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** November 08, 2018

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

I can find nothing that I like best about this product vs other ATS products I’ve used.

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

Almost everything about Taleo is not user friendly. It’s very difficult and time consuming to do a lot of actions in Taleo that wastes recruiters valuable time. It’s extremely frustrating how poorly the product was made. 

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

It is used as an applicant tracking system to keep track of applicants that apply to open requisitions. 

  ### 6. Not good

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bethany H. | Accounting Manager/Operations Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2017

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

Our company tried this before we changed to another software for applications, employee tracking, etc. and honestly, there was nothing good about the system. There is not a single thing that I would recommend about this program (at least from my company's point of view) because it just didn't work for us. The only really nice thing is that it would automatically save your work and your user name and password which is something that our system now does not do.

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

disliked everything about system because it just wasn't the right fit for our company. using this is something that a large corporation should be doing. My company has less than 100 employees, so we did not need the amount of information and data required for candidate testing and tracking. The information and testing that a candidate has to do would probably be well worth it for a larger company, but it was something that just didn't mesh well with our company. 

**Recommendations to others considering Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo):**

make sure it is for a large business or corporation

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

We were trying to solve hiring and employee and applicant tracking. This is not something that we were able to accomplish by using the system, so we ended up going with something else. The software did not solve any of our business issues or anything like that and helped us in no way, but would probably be ideal for a larger corporation. Would definitely recommend to a company whose HP department has a large volume of applicants and hundreds of positions open so that they are able to track all and see who would fit the best in what position. This was just too much for the company that i work for.

  ### 7. Missing a ton of core functionality

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kari G. | Recruiter, Real Estate, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 29, 2018

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

The UI is OK. I don't have any major complaints about it but also wouldn't say it's better than other ATS systems out there. 

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

A ton.. not structured, messy,  not intuitive, not customizable, lacks integration ability with other systems

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

Well, we were able to have more control over our jobs page and didn't have Taleo branded all over it like other ATS products. That's the only benefit we saw. 

  ### 8. HR tracking 

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** May 01, 2018

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

It organizes my reviews nicely and consolidates the data.

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

I dislike single use platforms, and perhaps this has multiple functions, but we only use it to review new hires. I prefer a single log in to access all my data and tasks,

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

I am easily able to review new hires, one by one.

  ### 9. Taleo for Recruiting Could Be Better

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Amanda B. | Sales Development Representative, Computer Software, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 28, 2017

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

Being able to track what stage of the recruit process was helpful.

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

Prospect information always took too long to populate within the database. We worked with international subsidiaries and it was very frustrating waiting for the applicant to show up.

**Recommendations to others considering Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo):**

It will help you track which stage the applicant is in! Very useful when communicating with international subsidiaries!

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

Determining the quality of applicants overall and optimizing the recruiting process.

  ### 10. Not very compatible with job search platforms

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Government Administration | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 24, 2018

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

The layout for candidate info is smooth.

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

Sometimes candidate info doesn't translate well or smoothly from job search apps like snagajob or Craigslist. Or it is difficult/awkward when inputting application info such as dates of employment, company names, or education info.

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

Candidate requisition and onboarding only.

  ### 11. Usable, but clunky and outdated

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 19, 2018

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

It is very robust - it seems like there's always a new capability to uncover.

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

It's stuck in the early 2000s, in terms of appearance and ease of use. 

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

All applicants in one place. Tracks anything you want. 

  ### 12. Typical ATS

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 21, 2018

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

Good product if you’re just looking to review applicants, move them along in process and generate offer letter. 

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

Searching sucks, lack of ability to take notes on candidates, ancient interface 

**Recommendations to others considering Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo):**

Look for an ATS that is also a CRM 

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

Standard process for applicants 

  ### 13. Overly cumbersome

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 19, 2018

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

The amount of data captured in this system is incredible.

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

The candidate experience is diminished by the difficulty of applying for positions.  It's also difficult to track candidates and lacks flexibility.

**Recommendations to others considering Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo):**

If you really need a highly standardized, robust system this might be for you.  Otherwise, you're better off with a simple system that you can customize that will provide simpler tracking.

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

The ability to track applicants in a single system to meet reporting requirements across many locations.

  ### 14. Taleo 

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Laura G. | Corporate Recruiter, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Recommendations to others considering Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo):**

Steer away if you have no experience with Taleo.

Recruiting, we are able to track applicants and search for candidates that previously applied.

It's not easy to share profiles with Managers.

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chris H. | Senior Talent Acquisition Sourcer, Staffing and Recruiting, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2017

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

I like the the fact that you can load multiple resumes etc.. it does have some great features for sure. 

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

Almost everything is very outdated.  You can't search deep enough and the data log takes forever. 

**Recommendations to others considering Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo):**

Oracle needs a major update on this tool. 

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

We did have all of our eggs in the Taleo basket but now we have moved to a much more modernized CRM.

There are steps/status you can move candidates to or disposition

Customize it and tailor to business needs and learn what other features they can implement

Reporting with business intelligence

**Reviewed Date:** November 06, 2017

We need better modules, reporting and one-stop shopping.

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

**Reviewed Date:** December 11, 2017

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

The Taleo system is clean and doesn’t have have a cluttered interface. 

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

It’s difficult to understand without specific and clear instructions. Even when there are instructions available, the interface isn’t clear in terms of usage. 

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

It assists with applicant funneling and on-boarding of new hires. 

  ### 21. The human factors component is lacking overall

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Defense & Space | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2017

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

The tag-up between coworkers and manager to employees

The general layout is confusing and not very easy to navigate

Candidate profiles for resumes, goal setting and reviews for yearly goals. It does have a few roll up features that aide the candidates

  ### 22. Not there yet...

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Stirling N. | Reporting Manager, Government Administration, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 10, 2017

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

It is easy to get start with,  especially users that have experience with Oracle.

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

But hard to really find a person with the right qualifications -  as opposed to almost right. 

**Recommendations to others considering Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo):**

Watch Taleo,  but look elsewhere if you are needs are short term.

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

In the world of HR management,  one still has to use a variety of tools to really obtain peak performance.  Since Oracle continues to work on key features with every release,  it is very likely that they will achieve the desired result.  Unfortunately,  it is not there yet.

  ### 23. Very clunky transition from Business to Enterprise edition

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Allison R. | Recruiter, Marketing and Advertising, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 23, 2015

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

Taleo has a lot of features that ultimately would be very useful. For example, the ability to integrate with Peoplesoft when entering personnel  information. Also, the ability to generate offer letters and send electronically.

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

The transition from Business edition, where we really only used the software to organize candidates, to Enterprise edition was not very smooth. Many candidates were duplicated or lost. There were a lot of steps in order to move the candidate through the process through the software and it was clunky and repetitive. Definitely not a time saver. 

**Recommendations to others considering Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo):**

It would be hard to recommend others using Taleo. We had so many kinks. However, I can see it being useful if Taleo is able to move through the process more quickly and smoothly in terms of installation and set up. 

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

The integration with PeopleSoft is a huge plus, that will ultimately be very useful. It just hasn't been updated yet. 

  ### 24. Slow or no response from Account Manager

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** February 04, 2015

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

Obviously they are a huge company and offer a great number of solutions and products. It's nice to have a one stop shop. 

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

Prior to Oracle purchasing Taleo we had named support. Once Oracle took over the customer support went down the drain. We can't even get a response from our account manager to questions about payment issues. These issues are on Oracles side! They call us asking for payment and  a week later they send an email saying they don't know where to apply the payment and as US the customer for documentation to help them determine where they payment should be applied! That is unacceptable! 

**Recommendations to others considering Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo):**

Please do your homework prior to signing a contract. You should also demand a responsive and dedicated Account Manager! 

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

We use Taleo and it's ok for applicants however we have tried multiple times to get them to deliver a save feature for the applications and they have not been able to do so.

Benefits that we've realized? I'm not sure that I can comment on this other than the same comment I made before about them offering many solutions from one company if needed. 

  ### 25. Mediocre ATS

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Avni P. | Global Talent Acquisition Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2014

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

I've used Taleo in my previous company and as a staffing professional, the best aspect of this ATS was that you could see the candidate throughout all stages during/after/before interview/offer process. The integration with SAP was a plus for onboarding. 

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

Interface is not visually appealing, also not the most easy to use ats-there are alot of steps that you have to go through instead of just 1 click functionality. As other people mentioned, it lacks social learning capabilities as well. Not very customizable.

**Recommendations to others considering Oracle Talent Management Cloud (formerly Taleo):**

There's definitely room for improvement with the product. I think there should be a better interface with better usability.

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

I used Taleo for managing candidates and for onboarding. I think the cons outweigh the pros.

  ### 26. I have use Taleo as a Recruiter

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 25, 2014

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

I like Taleo's capabilities, it has more than most applicant tracking systems. I like that Taleo can rate and stack all of the candidates that have applied for a position.

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

Taleo is cumbersome and not very user friendly. I highly prefer BrassRing as an applicant tracking system.

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

Keeping track of applicants.
