JD Jessica D. IT Manager - HR Applications Computer Networking Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 12/22/2016 "Great HR tool – very easy to use! " 5/5 What do you like best about Sage People? We have been using Fairsail for just over a year now and the HR team are experiencing some huge benefits. The automated processes have not only enabled the HR team to be more efficient, the quality of our data has increased dramatically. Although Fairsail is an ‘out of the box' product, I am impressed with the amount of configuration options it has which enables us to build a system which really feels like our own but with a stable foundation. Our employees have provided some great feedback on the collaboration portal. They love having the ability to view their data anytime, and anywhere. The Fairsail implementation team have been fantastic throughout whole process, great team to work with, excellent support and very extensive knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Sage People? There are some functionality gaps which would you expect to be incorporated into a HRIS of this size. Fairsail have focused some of the latest releases on the 'voice of the customer' so its great to see customers requests are being considered and incorporated in future releases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Sage People solving and how is that benefiting you? Before implementing Fairsail, we had disparate systems, we now have one global, scalable people database providing capabilities beyond basic transactions. We have implemented standardized business processes to ensure consistency across the globe. The tool is easy to use and our employees and managers love having the ability to access/manage their own data via self-service which has improved our data quality dramatically. The easy to use reporting tools enable us to produce accurate, real-time, global reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
