Functional, but a little clunky

My overall experience with SAP SuccessFactors has primarily been from the Learning Management Systems administration perspective. It can be straightforward, but it is nothing fancy.

Pros:

SAP SuccessFactors is very structured and organized. Once you understand the basics of the platform, UX for users/learners is pretty straightforward.

Cons:

It is a little bit clunky on the administrative end. There are a lot of possibilities, but it does take a lot lof learning and research to be able to administer in a clean way.

Good Value one stop shop for Business Management and Logistics.

Worked efficiently for time tracking, project management updates, logistics chain management, submitting time off requests and time card. Was not optimally designed to track progress or accuracy of takt times on manufacturing projects.

Pros:

Easy to navigate, a lot of control for the user which made taking care of important time tracking and updates to your profile fast and efficient. Great for project management and communicating between departments.

Cons:

There are certain complexities to the program that aren't easy for the newest person or even a more experienced person to navigate. Albeit is comprehensive, the format is a bit archaic, as it is a lot like MsDOS in functionality. I personally didnt enjoy using this software for manufacturing projects.

Clearly marked path to Success

I would use it mostly during performance review time. I liked how it stepped me through each of the requirements before I could advance.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Value for money

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

My experience was very linear, as it should be. SuccessFactors is not something that I interact with often. So when I don't use it often, or even more importantly, for new people that are being onboarded, a clearly marked path in SuccessFactors helps to facilitate smooth onboarding. And for veterans, the clearly marked paths is helpful for review time.

Cons:

SuccessFactors is not visited often I my day to day, not do we have much incentive to. It's hard to get people to go out of their way when we're so busy throughout the day.

SF is so irritating to use.

Design of the app does not allow idiot proof usage. When I change my claim approver, it is difficult to navigate how to change. There are pages with a single word at the top that you wouldnt think is a link, but it is a link for you to click. navigating around is not obvious for first time users
