### "BambooHR is great"

February 17, 2022

5.0

My experience with BambooHR has been great. The setup was a lot of work, because I was converting all personnel files to images. However, the up-front work was worth it and the day-to-day use of the software is very convenient and easy.

Pros

I like the fact that our personnel files have gone paperless. All the benefits forms that we use can easily be e-signed and filed. The onboarding and offboarding features have been very helpful. In addition, the benefits management is very convenient for ensuring that payroll deductions are done correctly.

Cons

My only complaint is that I wish that the time off request feature allowed employees to request time periods off (so, 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.) rather than hour increments.

### "Manage employees efficiently"

March 14, 2023

4.0

Making human resources management easy and managing recruitment processes and communicating with them is also very flexible, and this helped develop many administrative aspects of the company

Pros

Managing recruitment processes and ease of following an approach to recruitment and existing employees and making it easier for employees to view their data and performance and make planning for resource management very easy

Cons

It does not integrate with other programs easily, but requires a great effort to coordinate between them, and its cost is high for small companies, and employees may face some difficulties in adapting to the program.

### "Beautifully organized and structured to capture even small piece of information"

May 29, 2023

4.0

It has helped streamline our HR processes and enhance employee management. With the centralized employee database, we could easily store and manage employee information, the simplified onboarding and offboarding process was helpful as well.Time off management became more efficient with features that allow employees to request time off, while performance management tools facilitate goal setting and evaluation. It also provided employee self-service capabilities, enabling individuals to access and update their information and view important documents. Overall, BambooHR helped me save time, improve communication, and enhance team member's experiences.

Pros

Completing the tax declaration & upload supporting documents is super easy and way too quick. The performance management features is one good tool to set goals, track progress, and conduct regular evaluations. It enables managers and employees to have meaningful conversations about performance, growth, and development.

Cons

If it had integrations with Govt database such as UIDAI, it would take off lot of items from the checklist. For instance, if they integrate with Digilocker it would be super easy for Candidates to share documents.

### "BambooHR - I love it!"

February 14, 2024

5.0

BambooHR has honestly been really user friendly, and I would recommend to other companies.

Pros

I love how easy BambooHR makes the hiring and onboarding process. You can view each applicant from this site as well as rate whether they could be a good fit for the company. You can also communicate with the applicant straight from BambooHR. BambooHR makes it easy for new employees to complete their paperwork.

Cons

The only complaint that I have is that when a new employee enters their direct deposit information, BambooHR does not let them know that they have successfully entered their information and that information has been sent for approval and processing. Once a new employee enters that information, they get no feedback to confirm that they are complete or that their information went through.

### "Advanced all-in-one human resource management software"

June 21, 2023

4.0

We are able to meet all of our safety and training documentation needs with the assistance of BambooHR. It's also easy to review candidates with other managers and work together on the hiring process thanks to the onboarding and hiring features.

Pros

BambooHR provides us with superior resources for handling personnel records, payroll, and perks. We appreciate the simplicity of sharing information with one another within the team. BambooHR has excellent support services.

Cons

From time to time, we run upon a section of BambooHR that is very difficult to modify. Thankfully, any problems may be resolved by contacting their helpful customer care team.

### "This recruiting software is a breeze compared to others, freeing me to manage, not just file."

April 15, 2024

5.0

Pros

BambooHR's separate portals for employees and HR streamline tasks, letting employees manage their data and HR focus on compliance, not paperwork.

Cons

While BambooHR is great, it can't handle everything. For unique documents like your warehouse waiver, the manual scanning, labelling, and filing can be a pain, especially with high turnover.

### "This has worked great for an HR department of one!"

May 17, 2022

5.0

Having employee performance, employee wellbeing, training and HR management in one sources is absolutely a game changer. With 18 staff, I could not do this without BambooHR.

Pros

So easy to use and very intuitive. Customer support is THE BEST. This has met our needs and the company is always improving based on user feedback. They also offer free training outside of their software with Virtual HR Summits.

Cons

Have yet how to figure out how to get our PAR reporting required for our grants to work with a payroll system. This is a problem for a lot of nonprofits.

Reason for choosing BambooHR

This was the only affordable software that met our lower employee count (20) that had everything we were looking for.

### "Bamboohr greatly increases the quality of candidate management "

September 16, 2019

5.0

This must be one of the best human resource management services. Bamboohr is good for delimiting our work flow based on the number of employees with whom we work. It serves to communicate with employees, and with candidates to work in the company. It should be noted that bamboohr offers a very comfortable directory of employees. This software allows you a huge capacity regarding its deployment. Bamboohr It can be operated from any type of electronic devices since no type of installation is needed. Bamboohr customer support has a very acceptable response speed, as well as being very friendly at all times. It is the best services.

Pros

The platform offers us a good management of the documentation of our employees. It is easy to make detailed follow-ups about the activity of each employee, and their work time. The same thing happens with the follow-up of the candidates, and their abilities, because this is very complete. Another advantage of bamboohr is that the work can be organized so that specific employees can manage the rest. Bamboohr has proven to be a very reliable service, with which we can support all the work reports of our staff, and much more. The platform has also been of great help to achieve a more methodical workflow, and for the whole team to be aware of the skills and talents of each member of the team. Thanks to this we can create work strategies based on these skills.

Cons

Bamboohr offers a quite poor smartphone application. This is much better when used directly from the web page. The Platform does not offer enough communication tools. It does not handle motors of revision of curricular summaries, and neither it allows to administer criminal records (in the case of the candidates).

### "BambooHR is worth the money!"

December 16, 2022

5.0

When we first started using BambooHR, we used only a few features. We have now begun utilizing all the features available to us, which has been instrumental in streamlining our Hiring/recruiting, offer letters, timesheets, performance management and general employee file management.

Pros

BambooHR provides our organization with the perfect way to organize employees without being cumbersome or outdated. The ability to house our performance management right in our HRMS is one of the main features we love about BambooHR

Cons

One very minor issue that we have with the system is in settings. Things like choosing how many days before the pay date a timesheet is due. The drop-down choices are rigid and don't fit into how our company operates. We were able to figure out a workaround but it would be nice to have more customizability for some of the settings based on our needs

### "Your company needs Bamboo HR."

April 24, 2023

5.0

It was great, I believe every business would find it extremely useful.

Pros

The onboarding, PTO, vacation reminders, birthday remainders, and employee document filing were the best and most helpful feature. Made everything super easy especially for the employees not located in the office.

Cons

I think Bamboo HR needed more automation. Perhaps integration with texts would help the functionality.

### "BambooHR Review"

August 9, 2022

4.0

Was a top notch platform that allows a workplace to share valuable information and manage onboarding/hiring in a collaborative way.

Pros

How easy it is to navigate. How everything is centralized and how it creates positive relationships in the workplace

Cons

Sometimes there were too many ways to get to the same place a little redundant.

### "JHS Review"

February 18, 2022

5.0

We started using BambooHR about 3 years ago. I was hesitant, but once we got through the initial set up, which the support team made run smoothly, I was very pleased with the results. It is our main HR tool for our employees, including applying for positions, onboarding/offboarding, vacation and sick time tracking, payroll and benefit details, performance management, goal setting, and a great communication tool.

Pros

This software has been a great tool in centralizing our employee data, time-off tracking, and payroll details. We use the onboarding/offboarding feature that is extremely helpful when employees are hired or terminate. It is also a great communication tool.

Cons

Some of the time off policies can be a little complicated to set up, but once it is correct it works as it should.

Reason for choosing BambooHR

The ease of use for employees, and the overall impression of the software.

### "Perfect for our one-person HR department"

December 6, 2022

5.0

I could not live without it at this point - it is user-friendly, extremely intuitive to manage. The initial deployment was fairly simple and we had assistance all along the way.

Pros

As a single-person HR office, manually tracking applicants, leave time and managing HR files was time-consuming. BambooHR is the solution that has taken our HR function to another level by automating the work that used to take me a week out of the month to do.

Cons

The performance management function needs to have the ability to save and print the file.

Reason for choosing BambooHR

The cost as well as the ease of use.

### "A Useful HR Tool"

June 3, 2023

4.0

BambooHR has permitted us to smooth out our HR data and cycle by having everything in one spot and computerized! Administrators and team members alike will find the app and website to be very user-friendly! Utilizing and following PTO days has never been simpler and more precise. Team members can now easily access information about their benefits, PTO days, and other benefits.

Pros

It is extremely user-friendly for both employees and administrators. We adore the TRAX integration, which they continuously introduce new features and update the product to. It makes payroll processing very easy.

Cons

I sincerely can't imagine something I disdain about BambooHR! Although I am aware that the BambooHR team is constantly making improvements, there are some features that I would like to see added. Now that we use BambooHR, our situation is so much better!

### "Bamboo HR is online software with amazing service"

May 17, 2022

5.0

Software is great and easy to use Customer service is amazing

Pros

The performance management tools are invaluable, Goals create focus for the team and the reviews bring these together for an efficient but valuable process The apps are simple to use, our employees use them all the time rather than employing administrators we can self-serve which offers better service for the employee, updating details or requesting leave when it is convenient for them

Cons

We don't use the benefit management much and haven't found this to be particularly useful Whilst the reporting is good, there could be some improvements to scheduling to allow relative dates e.g. last month, last

Pros

BambooHR‘s ease of implementation and ease of use. The software also knows what HR admins really need and have provided all of these features, including lots of employee data privacy protection.

Cons

While the performance management module was easy to use, the analytics were tied to the English language. As our company’s dominant language is not English, we were unable to use this feature.

### "I'd be lost without Bamboo!"

April 19, 2023

5.0

Fantastic - couldn't recommend more.

Pros

Every team member I have spoken to over the past year has been a real credit to the organisation. From onboarding to support and customer success, the team have been incredibly helpful and committed to enabling me to get the most out of the platform. The flatform is my single point of truth, and absolutely integral to my talent acquisition process. I utilise the onboarding features every time I make a hire, which supports a successful transition into the business. I am currently exploring the Performance Management add-on to roll out across the organisation.

Cons

We moved away from the Time Tracking feature for employee holidays. From a project management perspective my team found an alternative gave a more user friendly oversight into resource availability.

### "BambooHR System"

May 23, 2022

5.0

We love having BambooHR in our company. It was a great transition for everyone.

Pros

I love the ease of maintaining our employee benefits within BambooHR. They are able to see what benefits they have and what they and the company pay into them. Also the fact that they carryover to the payroll system (no more double keying things).

Cons

The least favorite thing I have about the system is the lack to personal some of the Performance Management items. We are very specialized in some things that we do, it doesn't work using BambooHR for it.
