Successful companies see value from Bob when they are: mid-sized, multi-national, put people first, need to tackle the complexities of global HR processes, and remain agile in an ever-changing world.
Collage is ideal for small and medium businesses (fewer than 1,000 employees) that are looking to simplify HR, payroll and benefits.
Very remote/global-friendly. Pretty easy implementation, great support from their team during the selection & implementation process and even now when we need help with some issues/questions.
I was really disappointed that the user survey and performance elements of the software were both limited and priced separately from the rest of the package.
Users are encouraged to share their 'superpowers' which helps people to connect with others who have similar interests. The system is really easy to navigate and there are some useful integrations.
Still missing a few HR processes (eg. Competence Matrix).
Our management team likes the ease of requesting promotions and raises for the team, and everyone enjoys the visually attractive org chart.
I find the features not very intuitive - even if they are there - they are hard to find or manipulat.
The live chat team are amazing! so helpful and happy to work out a solution to any awkward query.
Sometimes things are not that logical in how it works, for example, people are able to go into negative holiday balance.
Collage has been a fantastic partner. From the on-boarding process to occasional support, they are professional, friendly and great at what they do.
Their time off feature is terrible, they don't adapt for holidays and we've paid employees who have left the company too much because of the way Collage's software is configured.
It's easy to get up and running, very intuitive from both user and administrator perspective, and their customer support is outstanding.
Still sends me reminders and updates even though we no longer use them. Because we no longer have an account it will not let me log bag in to unsubscribe to the emails.
Ease of use, great features, FREE, fantastic customer support, listens to suggestions, and when they don't have a solution, they always have another suggestion of where to follow.
I would say the one thing I feel that this software is missing is an App.
Collage is fantastic for my place of work. We have a lot of employees, so this made onboarding super easy and facilitated in payroll and scheduling.
No option for taking lieu time with overtime or subtracting overtime when someone wants it paid off. Right now it's going into the system and subtracting it.
Manu: Hello, my name's Manu. I work as the finance manager for Cyprium Metals Limited here in Australia. We are a company between the range of 50 to 100 people at this stage, and we got the Bob last year and I rate it five. We use Bob basically for the whole employee's lifecycle management, as well as leave tracking purposes, because we've got multiple sites. So that flexibility Bob offers us from the platform and domain and all those sort of things is great. So it's end to end after you onboard an employee to basically offboard them. The flexibility to be able to design the flows and tasks as well as the accessibility of the Bob from any device at anywhere without restricting to the network of the company or the domains. Because we operate multiple sites, that's really handy, and we were looking for something like that and Bob came good with that sort of an option at a very reasonable price. At this stage, there is not much to dislike. I believe they are working on it. Few things which we would like them to improve upon is the ability to integrate with other systems, for example, the ERP, which runs payroll. So if they can integrate with that, the data which is in Bob can be used without having to manipulate manually and bringing it on at Excel, and then try to import it. So in terms of integration, I believe they are working on it, but at this stage, it's not there.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
