Excellent value for money with an excellent support service
Reviewed on 30/03/2021
Pros
The product has a very friendly user interface. The main thing with an HR system is that it has to be intuitive for the end user, so that they are not discouraged from using it. Cezanne is very basic to the end user, but allows the HR user to record a significant level of information and detail.
The training is worth the investment; rather than using dummy data, you use your own data to introduce core information and then are trained using your own data. The training we received was delivered in a very calm and thorough manner, with constant check ins on our understanding. Like any software, it wouldn't be possible to implement without the training (unless you're experienced in doing so), but to make the introduction of our data part of the training not only helped consolidate learning, but saved us time later. There are certain back end settings I would not have even attempted without this.
The import features allow you to import almost any data, saving significant time.
The HR user interface is broken down in key areas. At first, you spend time looking for where certain functionality lives, but once you get used to it, it's fine.
The support service is excellent; the answers are clear, with direction towards the Cezanne Help Centre for future where applicable, and the time to respond (even on a low priority) is short. The support team are helpful and friendly, and the Help Centre is detailed. There is also a feature for you to raise ideas for future development.
Cons
Sometimes searching for the right help article in Cezanne Help Centre can be tricky.
We find the reporting functionality a challenge. To pull what it is you are looking for and create reports across different data sets isn't always straight forward, however we are yet to invest any of our training in this area.
When an import fails, the error messages are not clear and sometimes you have to raise a support ticket to understand what the error message means. That being said, as I already mentioned, the support team are excellent.

It is a good tool, there is still room for improvement: e.g forms - signing, could be more intuitive. Some reports could be easier to navigate, also sometimes you can not have all the information on one report. When there is an employee that works part-time with specific hours - the process to add working time pattern is very manual and the holiday calculation.
Pros
Cezanne is relatively easy to use. I like that we are always informed about the updates and receive notifications. In addition, the support staff is very responsive.
Cons
Sometimes you need to think like Cezanne - when it comes to process, it could be more intuitive. Also, you can not just upload a form and ask employee to sign - I had to use a form builder.
Response from Cezanne HR
Thanks so much for your review Karolina. We are glad that you find the system straightforward to use and enjoy our regular system updates to improve functionality. It's also fantastic to see how you've benefitted from our quick and friendly support team.
We are currently in the process of making changes to improve our document tracking and signing process, which I think will help address some of the areas that you raise in your review. Likewise, we also have some process flow enhancements to build off notification functionality which we are excited to release later this year!
It would be great to discuss your feedback further and see if there's anything we can do to assist making life easier when working on the system, so please do feel free to reach out to our Support team who would be more than happy to arrange some time with you.

This is a basic system. It's not fit for purpose as our business expands, but it holds basic information and allows employees to book holiday and record sickness.
Pros
The front dashboard can be adapted for employees, for example to link to external sites. There is the ability to customise some picklists such as absence reasons.
Cons
None of the screens can be tailored to suit our organisation, i.e. if a field is there it cannot be hidden or renamed, and new fields can't be created. When running ad hoc reports, often two or three will need to be ran to get all the data, and they will need to be manually merged together afterwards. There is no data change audit, so if and when HR make changes to an employee's record, no one can see exactly when that change was made, by whom, and what the data said before.
Response from Cezanne HR
Thanks for taking the time to review and feedback to us, Louise.
We are glad to hear you have enjoyed the dashboard customisation that we offer to enable you to tailor experience for user access and also that our customisable picklists are handy for areas like Absence.
With regards to field customisation, we do have functionality that allows you to re-label the majority of People-based screens and within a number of these screens we also now offer the ability to hide or indeed add new fields.
Audits can be requested at any time from our Support team and we also have our People Summary reports, which allow you to find the last modified user and date for a record as well as merge different data sets together in a single report.
Please feel free to reach out to our Support team who would be happy to take you through a review of any of this functionality into the system and hopefully help improve your usage of Cezanne.

Generally positive, roll out was easy enough and the support provided by the support team has been consistent. We did have some issues with the account manager assigned to our account however that has since been resolved.
Pros
Ease of deployment and ease of use, for an off the shelf system there is a fair level of customisation available.
Cons
The areas that we are limited in customising are the performance management module, in terms of titling and labelling boxes and information available at different stages to the employee and manager.At times you can get stuck in a system loop when updating deployment records which can be frustrating as the notification messages don't go into enough detail to help you pin point what exactly is causing the loop so it can take some time to resolve.

It is fine, customer support is pretty good and can be very helpful especially when you are learning the system. The system itself has big potential, there are a lot of reports you can get from it and work on the data you extract. I would sat that even though reports can be very useful and informative they are very complicated. You really need to learn which are the right searches to run because even though you run to searches that you think should show the same thing it doesn't.System has a lot of modules and constantly growing which is great.
Pros
Amount of reports and data which can be obtained. The amount of modules and the ways system can be personalised, this is a great benefit.
Cons
Complicated and not the most user friendly
Response from Cezanne HR
Thanks very much for your review Natalia. It's great to hear you've benefitted from the flexibility in terms of functionality that Cezanne has to offer and the personalisation available to help make the system your own. Thanks also for feeding back on the helpfulness of the Customer Services team in supporting your use of the system.
It would be great to understand in a little more detail where you've found the system more challenging to get to grips with. Hopefully with the help of our services team we may be able to use some of the configuration options to make Cezanne more straightforward for your use in the future.
