Q. People are telling me I should buy from one of the big talent management vendors, why should I consider HRTMS?
A. HRTMS allows you to incorporate full talent management functionality into the Performance process, so you’re implementing one seamless process in one application. With other Talent Management solutions you’d have to implement a whole separate application for Succession, learning etc. HRTMS Performance allows you to implement only what you need in one easy to use application. Also most Talent management vendors have rounded out their Talent Management offerings by buying other products and companies. These tools are then stuck on to the core application and are poorly or imperfectly integrated, causing problems and extra work for your staff. In addition the big ERP vendors have been buying up the talent management suite vendors and it’s unlikely that Oracle or SAP will be able to muster the same focus on talent management that those in the space maintain.

A: Yes. You setup your performance review process to be the way you want it to be. Our 360 Performance Review feature allows you to gather feedback from not only the managers but from other team members and employees.
Q: Many vendors see compensation as a separate process to performance. What happens, during the comp process when a flawed performance review is discovered?
A. Since HRTMS products are completely integrated you a can push reviews back to the appropriate approver for revision at any time.
