"Combining everything together, our on-time completions have gone from the mid-sixty percentile to over 99% on-time completion."
"The solution is very stable."
"Its user-friendly interface is most valuable. You can configure your welcome page and design it the way you want on your own."
"The most valuable feature is how easy it is to learn and use. It's built off the Microsoft Word format, so if you can use Word, you'll be able to figure this out."
"Stability and scalability are good. They have four releases every year of which learning is a big portion of that. They're constantly refining and defining and they're embedding a lot of new technology into it all the time."
"The Meeting feature is similar to a conference call facility that can be used for virtual meetings."
"The most valuable feature is Organizational Management (OM)."
"It simplifies everything for human capital management, and all users can do self-enrollment for leaves and those kinds of things. The employee self-service feature is quite a powerful feature for me. You can install it on your mobile phone or iPad and do your employee service activity there."
"The master data where most of the reports were run from was the most valuable. We were quite satisfied with this module."
"The tool's most valuable features for our HR operations include easy reporting capabilities, which allow us to generate reports for management meetings and auditing purposes. Additionally, it supports appointment preparation and processing benefits."

"SAP HCM has valuable features for analytics data management."
"When you maintain your data in SAP, you can generate any kind of HR report with one click."
"It has the best data management features."
"Cornerstone Learning could be improved with more e-learning content."
"Cornerstone Learning's initial setup was complex, but I don't see that as a downside. It was complex because there is a lot of customizing and a lot of settings that can be done in the setup."
"In the next release, I would like to see a Hybrid architecture and to be able to customize the look and feel."
"The support for this solution could be improved."
"Its dashboard and analytics must be improved. Currently, we get the data, but we don't get anything from the insightfulness perspective. Analytics is where it requires a lot of work. We definitely expect some good dashboard features, which are currently lacking in this solution. From a technical perspective, they need to open access to all HTML tags. It currently doesn't support many HTML tags, which makes it challenging to create HTML pages."
"In general, some of the portal pages have an outdated look and feel."
"Even though the system has a number of features, design wise the user interface is a little bit complicated. It is hard for the user to navigate properly. Because the system has so many features, it has a lot of tabs and links. Sometimes, people get confused as to where to go and search."
"Could use more robust reporting or more flexibility and scalability around the reporting side."
"HCM could improve compatibility, making it more accessible via web applications and graphical interfaces."
"SAP is not ready to sell the license on time and delays the progress of projects. It's better to work with a competitor like Oracle. Those that are selling the product just go through powerpoints and don't have the knowledge necessary to sell. They can't answer any questions."
"Reports need to be added on the time management side."
"It is a bit tedious and manual to work with."
"Managing changes in applications can be challenging since it complicates testing and unit testing, resulting in longer testing phases. This time-consuming process often leaves little room for actual work."
"The product's license is very expensive."
"The speed of technical support can be improved."
"SAP HCM's long and tedious transactions can be improved."
