Find out in this report how the two Cloud HCM solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The report builder and dashboard builder are very, very good."
"The solution is beneficial overall."
"The most valuable features of Sage People are the reports that are useful for decision-making and the API that can be integrated well. Additionally, the solution can be accessed from mobile devices onto the cloud."
"The most valuable feature of Sage People is the integration with our payroll system."
"Compared to the other system that we were using, I think Sage is more friendly. As an administrator, Sage's dashboard is visually friendly and many tasks are easier to accomplish. Another feature that we've liked since we started using Sage is the reporting. With the other system, we needed to configure a lot of things manually when it came to reporting, but with Sage the reporting tasks are much simpler."
"The reporting features are also very valuable because, on top of 300+ reports available on the system, you can also customize quite a number of reports."
"The solution's initial setup was straightforward."
"Sage makes all the information accessible, like pulling a file because an employee needs something ASAP. It's all in the system. It's easy to find old reports if I need them for payroll purposes. It might take days to do some of this work by hand."
"The compliance management functionality is quite good."
"All our employee data, like performance and payroll, is managed through SAP HCM."
"It is a scalable solution. There are three administrators maintaining the solution: an HR person, a payroll person, and one backup."
"Technical support is excellent."
"The most valuable feature, in my view, is the level of exceptions or error messages that come back when something goes wrong."
"Customers can create custom infotypes to store any custom data points."
"The most valuable feature is the Personnel Administration."
"The platform is simple to use and has a user-friendly dashboard and integration features."
"The automation in Sage People could improve. The solution is the best used for data storage but the automation could be better to have more functionality."
"The integration with our payroll system could improve. However, it is managed by another company."
"The user interface is not great."
"Its stability could be better."
"There were a couple of things that we wanted to customize, but we couldn’t do it ourselves."
"If Sage People were to become a fully cloud-based solution, it could lead to significant improvements. With the COVID pandemic highlighting the benefits of remote work, a complete shift to cloud-based functionality would be a welcome development for users."
"In my opinion, the performance management module of this system could use improvement as it falls behind compared to other specialized performance management platforms."
"Its technical support could have been better."
"The limitation of HCM compared to new-era human capital management solutions is the cost."
"System usability is a challenge."
"A better user interface and greater AI integration are crucial."
"The product's learning and development features could be better, including new exclusive LMS tools."
"The breadth of functionality offered by SAP HCM comes at a cost."
"The setup comes with a set of challenges as well."
"SAP HCM needs to improve its UI."
"It was difficult to deploy. There were challenges regarding configurations and implementation. So, we had a lot of issues."
