William M
Account Executive
3.0

William W.: Hey, my name is William. I'm an account executive. I would give Employment Hero a rating of three out of five. For more reviews, click the link below. So I use Employment Hero as a user to access my payroll. I use the benefits program, the discounts program as well, as well as managing all my HR information. So things like address, phone number, email address and the like for our HR department at work. So I've used, I mean, a number of different types of HR software over my career. In the past, it's been quite limited, right? You access your payroll. You get told how much you're getting paid and you get told when you're getting paid and you tell them where they're paying it to and that's fine. The thing I really like about in Employment Hero is it gives the user a lot more kind of benefits, for lack of a better term, in that you get your discounts, you get actual benefits. They've got the hero awards program and the like. So whereas my experience is most HR software is very driven towards the administrator and the company, Employment Hero feels like they build products for the user. So the thing that kind of makes Employment Hero so good is all of its utility. But unfortunately, I think that's also the reason it is challenging to use, which is you log into your dashboard and there's a lot of tools, a lot of areas you can access. There's a lot of utility to it. So if you want to go in and do something really basic, like you change bank account, want to update your bank details for your HR team, it can feel like it's actually really difficult to find where to put that information. So some of the things that are highlighted in that UX are areas like the hero awards program, their benefits program, which is wonderful, but it can feel like the basics of what you need from a payroll HR program are actually really difficult to find.

Hr compliance coordinator
4.0

Chris: Hello, my name's Chris. I'm an HR generalist. I work at a home company that has about 100 people, and ADP Comprehensive Services, I give a four out of five. We use ADP for hiring processes and we also use it for weekly payroll and monthly payroll. Things I like about ADP is how everything is right there where you need it. There's very few things that aren't, but everything else is right there where you need it. Things I don't like about ADP is how difficult it makes it to figure out time cards, because I had to do a math calculation in order figure there out, and there are a few other things that I wish they could do some improving on, as far as when it comes to the hiring process as well.
