Sapling by Kallidus vs. SAP Core HR and Payroll

It's a good space to have a high level overview of the organization (especially Org view). Places for improvement include extra levels of complexity when you need to click on the person and you are navigated to the pop-up that is hard to use and only one pop up can be used at a time. I wish there wasn't so much of clicking in and clicking out.

Overall it does a good job of getting done the bare necessities of what is needed. It is easy to navigate and things are well organized. I think there could be more functions added to make things more clear. The design could use some improvement to give it a more current look.

• Organization Structure: Clean and simple visual organization structure to understand the business fairly quickly.
• Onboarding: Great tool for utilizing their questionnaire and presentation tools.
• Employee info: Keeping all employee/workforce individual info (i.e. t-shirt sizes).

• Very accurate data and reporting of time - vacation, out of office, time exceptions.
• Personnel data and records are easily accessible.
• System down time is rarely an issue.

Incentivized

• Less email reminders to incomplete work.
• Clicks must be specific to file, can't highlight and open file.
• Too many add-ons in the system.
• Have to upload and transfer too many documents.

• The SAP HR unser interface is not intuitive and requires significant training and experience to master. A web-based, simple and intuitive UI will mitigate this issue.
• In general running reports and extracting information from SAP HR and Payroll is complex and time consuming. Since the reporting tools are limited and very basic, one ends up extracting raw data to be manipulated in standard tools like MS Excel.
• The standard SAP HR and Payroll system integration tools are inefficient and ineffective; very often they fail to transfer small amounts of data requiring constant verification and rework of data transfers.

To use this system you need to buy several add-ons. If add-ons do not fit your business model you will have to access platforms from different companies. The system is not easy to use for onboarding. Candidates cannot change and update settings. To use the system a person must click in the correct spots. If not it leads you someplace else. Then you have to start clicking all over again.

The application is highly available, easy to use, and very user-friendly.

The support received during the product implementation was good, but once you move out of that stage you have to reach out to the support team through a chat type of tool and often have to wait for a response.

Sapling [HR] was our first and only HR automation platform. We ran a trial campaign with them and did not compare them to other vendors.

We use SAP HR and Payroll because in our company it is the corporate mandate. However, based on our regional/business unit requirements and strategic plans other system would provide a better fit. However, just like in many large global corporations these type of decisions are made at the corporate level, many times giving priority to technology standardization instead of business priorities.

• We were able to get the system implemented very quickly, which was of great importance to us as we were undergoing rapid growth.
• The system has helped us keep and stay organized and allowed team members to work collaboratively to get tasks done. Many of these tasks were previously managed with various spreadsheets and other trackers that were quickly becoming unmanageable.
• Sapling has greatly decreased the time we needed to onboard and employee and has prevented many errors.

Incentivized

• SAP is a very intuitive platform to use.
• Saves money and time in record keeping.
