"Excellent HR soiution, strong support provided by Fairsail"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Sage People?

I love the flexibility of the system and ease of use. It enables HR professionals to manage their HR system using a user-friendly interface, without having to rely on an IT department to manage the system. Creating fields, setting up reports can all be done by non-IT professionals which provides a level of flexibility most HR solutions cannot provide. Highly configurable absence/leave module so easy to adapt to needs/requirements of different countries including more 'challenging' ones such as France, Italy or Belgium. Also rate the support received from Fairsail very highly, they are very responsive and are always happy to consider implementing suggestions for improvement in their next releases. The solution is reliable, running on the salesforce.com platform and combines the flexibility of a 'smaller' provider (i.e. vs. Oracle for example) with the robustness and reliability of a large and well established platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sage People?

We knew right from the start Fairsail would not support all of our in-country local requirements 'out of the box'. This is not something I 'disliked' but I would like to emphasise that it will take some work to get each country set up, there is no such thing as a default configuration for 'France' or for 'China'. Having said that with the flexibility mentioned above it is relatively easy and quick to configure this and to ensure the system is aligned to our business needs applicable to each country. We had the system up and running, at least for the core functionality - for all countries within 6 weeks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sage People:

Would highly recommend Fairsail, especially in international organisations who need to see quick results and who do not have a large scale IT team to provide internal support on HR systems. Ideal for HR teams who would like to 'shape' their own HR solution without having to rely on internal or external IT consultants. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sage People solving and how is that benefiting you?

General HR reporting and forecast, headcount analysis, absence/leave management, recruitment, performance management, overtime, timesheets, self-service employees and managers, payroll interfacing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"We could not have asked for better support, product knowledge and understanding of OUR business!"

5/5

What do you like best about Sage People?

You have a dedicated Implementation Consultant who you can build a good working relationship with (in our case Yanithza Perilla). Yani made us feel that she really understood our business and there was a solution to any problem. It helped us to focus on our processes and streamline these to help us all work more effectively and efficiently.

Any queries were dealt with promptly and all of the Fairsail team are extremely supportive.

The system is user-friendly and adaptable to all business needs, it has a great look and feel to it. We looked at a number of products before choosing Fairsail as it 'ticked all the boxes' for our growing global business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sage People?

Not very much! I am extremely pleased with the system overall and I am looking forward to expanding my knowledge further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
