Many PeopleSoft customers are beginning to question the value they are receiving from their PeopleSoft roadmap compared to the cost. Here are some key facts around PeopleSoft to keep in mind:
- All versions before release 9.2 are no longer “Fully Supported” according to Oracle- understand your support gaps
- Oracle has no PeopleSoft 9.3 currently on their roadmap, but has simply extended support through 2031 for 9.2
- Nearly 70% of customers do not stay current with PeopleSoft 9.2 updates
- Roughly 50% of customers have not applied a single new feature in PeopleSoft 9.2
- Nearly 87% of 9.2 images contain zero updates for one or more of your PeopleSoft modules – download analysis of over 800 PeopleSoft 9.2 updates
