Capture your employees and improve performance with taleo
Comments: With that tool we can track the complete data of the employees, the staff and all the information, input and output, tasks and reports, in addition to having a separate use for the human resources department, and in this way perform the complete control of the service With new income with a fresh and complete database, I use it mainly to take control of tasks and employees in my charge in the marketing and finance department, and I collaborate with the control in the human resources department, and simply It is a wonder, it is flexible easy to apply and extremely comfortable, department heads can eliminate all the paperwork of their employees in one day and have a more orderly database and easily locate all records, thanks to this system we can keep more order within the department at any time, no doubt Oracle always takes the lead in all its services worldwide, regardless of the co This is well worth implementing at any time.
Pros:
There are many positive aspects within this system from the versatility that it has in several departments, although its strength is the human resources system where it includes tools that allow you to even register and maintain control of each employee of the company without losing control or losing data, and in this way have more control over the information of the postulate profile, experience, skills, performance, training, and career of human talent, facilitating the evaluation of each person individually, until maintaining actions to keep up to date with each task and reports of the other departments and keep up to date each activity carried out by your subordinates effectively and completely, by having the complete data of the employees entered in case you only perform a search system to keep current employees online and graduates and know their current performance, so evaluate better if your work meets the req standards ueridos or should be helped to improve.
Cons:
The point against which you will notice more within the platform is that it is very difficult to handle, and to learn its use, most of the Oracle systems come with an encrypted system or a language that is not intuitive for users, so this generates a great disadvantage in the product, it is complicated to understand and the reports at the beginning must be configured if you want a quick print, it does not have a previous sample so you may spend a lot on storage space while testing to achieve the ideal alignment, the platform does not It is dynamic, it is not intuitive, you will need a long working time to be able to work and adapt to its management, the implementation can be long and tedious, however I think it is well worth going through all this since the advantages are much greater , and is an excellent internal operations system for your company.

Recruiting? It's Taleo!
Comments: It is very great in organizing the recruitment efforts of every company. If you want to have a great applicant tracking system, I suggest use Taleo!
Pros:
Taleo is our applicant tracking system. As a database, it helps us keep track of all job openings, applicants, JDs, and the dates they all happened. Taleo helped us to have good organization in our recruitment efforts. It is very powerful that we can see if an applicant applied to us previously, what position they applied for, and what was the outcome of their application.
Cons:
I think the social sharing portion is a bit unupgraded. There is also no preview of how the sharing will look like so we still manually share it on social media sites, and this is taking some of our precious time. I hope Taleo incorporate social media sites such as FaceBook, and Instagram, and if they do it, I hope they have a great template and photos as well.
A lot could be improved
Comments: Oracle is helpful and serves its purpose but I wish it could have been easier to use and loads faster.
Pros:
I like that Oracle can be used within different departments such as Recruitment, Logistics, Accounting, etc., and data will be stored into one system.
Cons:
With all its features, I wish it could have been more faster to load for its users. I also wished that it is more user friendly when I was using it. I remember how kind of hard it was for me to view my candidate's full profile without having to do a lot of clicks. Additionally, it was quite hard to navigate for a first time user.

Oracle Taleo Cloud Service one of the Best
Comments: Excellent we recommend it.
Pros:
Oracle Taleo Enterprise Cloud Service is a software that allows us as an organization, specifically to the Human Resources department to systematically evaluate and compare the individual experience, skills and competencies of internal and external candidates to apply for the positions that are available. It is very useful because it allows us to encompass the entire Human Resources process from the recruitment, selection, hiring and compensation of personnel; as well as maintaining control over information on the profile, skills, training, experience, performance and career of human talent, facilitating the evaluation as to which person with the best profile should be considered for each particular position and who may have the best performance.
Cons:
Taleo is a system that manages talents, but lacks payroll control, occupational risk prevention, attendance control.

Big Companies need Giant software
Pros:
Oracle Taleo help you to mentor your team and make your day more easy as keep all report for each one in and out ,and in that way give you the control system on who under your charge, the software help head of department to eliminate paper work to be in one day only as help you in evaluation every person individually
Cons:
I think the platform is so hard to handle and to know how it's use, and report must be configured at beginning. the implementation maybe be long and hard in beginning , however i think it is worth.

Taleo for Recruiting
Comments: My experience with Taleo was middle of the road. I think it's good enough, I wouldn't tell everyone to buy it but it does the job.
Pros:
Taleo was the first ATS I used and I thought it was very easy to learn the ins and outs. It wasn't an overly complicated platform and if I needed to find a candidate or process it was very straightforward.
Cons:
Taleo is not the most robust system. You're not going to get all the bells and whistles and it's not going to be the tool you rave and tell all your friends about, but it gets the job done and it's fairly intuitive. Sourcing for candidates is very difficult though.

I utilize Taleo for full-lifecycle recruiting
Comments: It captures and organizes a huge number of applicants
Pros:
Taleo is relatively easy to use and has a broad range of functionality. It is also extremely customizable.
Cons:
The user experience leaves something to be desired, it feels outdated. Taleo is not particularly intuitive, and needs stronger integration with other HR systems

Excellent HR Tool
Comments: Great integrations, feature-packed, and makes us more efficient. Highly recommended.
Pros:
We can keep tabs on applicants. Monitor their progression from initial evaluation, hiring, and building skills. Encompasses just about all of the human resources processes. The price is great for the features you get. We love having the employee paperwork all filled in before a new hire even steps foot into the office for their first day. Nobody likes paperwork. This software definitely improves our onboarding process, making us much more efficient. The integrations also allow our department to save time managing employees. Having things like our background check service integrated is great.
Cons:
Needs an integration with payroll. Not the easiest software to deal with (it's Oracle...). You'll have that with software that is powerful, though. Still, could use some improvements for ease of use. Navigation could be improved.

Excellent For Applications and Resumes
Comments: Even though the initial set up is long, subsequent applications are easy and breezy since all your information is already in there. When I was looking for a job, there were a ton of companies that used this for their application process- a lot of quality companies and positions too!
Pros:
I loved, loved, loved that it stored my resume and job application information and was easy to submit to multiple positions within individual companies.
Cons:
The first time you apply to a job listing, it takes SOOOO LONG to enter all the information. Also, each business requires you to re-enter or upload your information, but once it IS in there, you can easily apply to multiple job listings!

Lots to be desired from end user of performance review
Pros:
I do like that I can see all the reviews from the cycle online. And being able to track status online too
Cons:
The formatting for adding comments on performance reviews is not friendly; it allows for text only. There is NO formatting available.
Excellent Product
Pros:
Easy to use, and well structured and Oracle support team is helpful
Cons:
Seems all perfect yet to discover more on this product
probably one of the best
Pros:
very useful as it has everything all in one place regarding HR in general
Cons:
it would be good to see a payroll management feature here
Taleo ATS
Pros:
Taleo is an easy-to-use ATS that allows the recruiter to effectively track candidates that have applied for a role or were previously considered for a separate recruitment process. The recruiter dashboard allows the recruiter to have a high level overview of all vacancies as well all candidate applications in process. Requisition notes are easy to update and the user is able to pull a report & export into excel.
Cons:
The general look of the Taleo dashboard can seem quite 'busy,' and 'clunky.' Other ATSs on the market seem to be more slick.

Easy to use but too pricey to be the best
Comments: Better value elsewhere if you don't need Oracle Software for recruiting
Pros:
It is an Oracle product so it implements and snycs with existing software well. Being experienced with other Oracle Software I felt the look of the landing page was positive and it was easy to get around the site!
Cons:
The Price is very high especially if you want "full features." Felt a little nickled and dimed to get all the features we wanted. Salesman was honest but it was frustrating
Robust stable product
Pros:
Some pros of this software is The reporting is very robust and easy to use,
Cons:
One cone is The recruiter end user experience is not modernized and can be clunky to use at times....
So So System
Comments: It does what we need it to do and eliminates manual processes, but it is not the most seamless or sophisticated option I've used.
Pros:
I like the onboarding integration that allows all onboarding paperwork to be done by the employee prior to start (I-9, W-4, Direct Deposit, and a variety of custom created forms). It also allows for workflows between multiple people, such as recruiter, candidate, hiring manager, etc.
Cons:
The user experience definitely isn't the best I've seen. The interface is rather unsophisticated looking, and it can be clunky to click from page to page when trying to get to certain information. It doesn't do certain things that I've been used to from other ATS and Onboarding systems, such as being able to see all the I-9 information in once place and easily feed to E-verify.
Often our clients use Taleo, and often we prefer they don't! Not the best portal for recruiters
Pros:
Taleo is comprehensive - you can add a lot of information for each candidate, and it can be a strong overall tool for a firm when managing hundreds of applicants.
Cons:
The software is just too clunky when trying to add CVs - being unable to remove/adjust attachments, having to go through a lengthy 'verification' process for each email which is often wrong... it just needs to be easier to navigate as too many options can be a bad thing!
A Recruiters review of Oracle Taleo Cloud
Pros:
What I liked most about Taleo is it's easy social media integration. Taleo integrates with social media platforms, such as LinkedIn, making it easier for organizations to reach potential candidates and for candidates to apply for jobs.
Cons:
Many of the Recruiters found the user interface to be confusing or difficult to navigate
Functional ATS but not great
Comments: An expensive ATS used for larger more traditional companies. Personally, I won't recommend this product but it could be useful for some bare bones functionality.
Pros:
-Lots of functionality -Great for larger corporations -Easy integration -Database is extremely large so candidate information is easily accessible.
Cons:
-Old! It seems my larger more established clients use Taleo and it's just an old ATS. The overall user experience is a bit dated and clunky. There is not much customization, if you have multiple clients utilizing your companies ATS it can get quite confusing.
The nightmare-fueled world of Taleo
Comments: Now that I've learned my way around the platform, I grin and bear it. You'd be better off with almost any other ATS.
Pros:
Once you get over the STEEP learning curve, it becomes a marginally useful tool for tracking your pipeline. The in@taleoinbox feature is quite handy.
Cons:
The search functions are essentially nonfunctional and non-intuitive. If you're trying to find all candidates that experience using a certain tool for example, it is truly a toss-up whethere the results are relevant or not. There's no preview window for the resumes or profiles on search results; you must therefore go search each profile one at a time. Same goes for making edits. CRM pipelines also not visible on list views.
One of the best and biggest recruitment providers around
Comments: Good product which is why it's one of the biggest and best
Pros:
Complete talent management modules - succession planning, onboarding, compensation, performance management, learning management, goals management and development planning. Project implementation is super simple and initially easy
Cons:
Questions about functionality, unusual requests or sometimes simple questions at all can be difficult to get answers fro from the vendor. Currently, there is no mobile support.
User friendly
Comments: Recruitment, tracking, hiring process are very easy with Taleo!
Pros:
Ease the hiring process, good applicant tracking system, database, good organization, all in one for multiple division, very functional and logical.
Cons:
manually share of few social media, should have more options.
Frustrating and difficult
Comments: This is the worst of the solutions I've used and makes searching and recruiting hard.
Cons:
It's dated. Searching for jobs with Taleo based sites is harder than it needs to be. When integrated with other HTML it always appears clunky.
Large box software that has a lot of features, sometimes hard to navigate
Pros:
Allows us to onboard a lot of new employees quickly, and has the ability to push fillable forms to the new employees, so moves us to a more paperless solution. Integrates our recruiting efforts with Careerbuilder, and also provides support for an iframe drop into our website.
Cons:
Hard to navigate the website, and there are a lot of "features" that companies may not use, but have to pay for. Their support was able to come up with a solution to integrate with our TLM system, but there were a lot of hoops to jump through.
oracle is an excellent tool to process data and it makes easy my work
Comments: i think this software make my work so much easier than before, and i reduce my time of working a lot.
Pros:
i like it because is a very intuitive tool and has a way that allows us to compose the form, as we would in Visual Basic or Visual C, this is very cool!
Cons:
copying the folder and then having to download it again to make modifications is quite complicated. also It is difficult for professionals who do not handle technology
