The features that are most valuable are auto-triggers for activities, an integrated portal, and automated student status changes. There is nothing that will help with standards-based grading.
* CampusPortal is in need of an update: This is coming later in 2017. * Clock hour programs work OK in CampusVue, but they are not setup as well as credit programs * Grading is centered around letter grades. There is nothing in CampusVue that will help with standards-based grading.

Decades of use have delivered secure, customizable control for public sector operations and finance
I have just completed three assessments: one on inventory demand planning, another on using artificial intelligence to bring supplier contracts in portable document format directly into PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft works both internally as well as with third-party products that integrate seamlessly with PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft operates both from a need-to-know-only basis as well as being able at the same time to do group purchase and realize large quantity purchase discounts. My clients have used marketplaces, and it is really industry-specific whether they use one or not, or if there is even one available. I would rate this product nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"CampusNexus Student provides everything needed in an SIS."
"One of the best on-prem ERP systems on the market with robust features."
"PeopleSoft is resilient and has the flexibility for us to customize it."
"If the organization has a sufficient budget and wants to manage talent and support business objectives, then this is the answer."
"The most valuable feature of this product is the HR suite; it is the leading vendor for human resources in the market, so for me, the HR and payroll features are the biggest flagship of the PeopleSoft product."
"All the features of the solution are integral to the functionality. Additionally, the navigation customization is beneficial."
"The financial capabilities are great."
"The ability to fully customize it for our needs is huge and is by far the most valuable feature for us when it comes to HR management."
"Scales up very well."
 

Cons

"CampusPortal is in need of an update: This is coming later in 2017."
"In my opinion, it needs more performance, maybe something technical related, because it's very slow for us and even small activities take a while."
"Services that need improvement include PeopleSoft Query, Pivot Grids, and PeopleSoft Test Framework."
"It would be nice if it became even more declarative in its development."
"There could be more adaptability of the system."
"We needed to do a lot of integration with third-party applications in order to get the functionality that we needed. The API integration could be better."
"The bugs are always in the latest release, so I always tell my client to be one release behind, let somebody else find all those bugs, and their response time in fixing those bugs sometimes takes a little while."
"PeopleSoft should be more flexible with the configuration. There should be less coding and more configuration."
"The main area for improvement would be with performance in some cases, specifically with migrations."
