What the most I like is the performance evaluation module, which is a modern super dynamic, updated and updated.

### "Entry Level User/Beginner"

June 6, 2018

4.0

Pros

Feature Rich - So many options to choose from for every module Open Source Easy to navigate Nice Interface

Cons

Linux installation can bring its own set of problems, particularly with the first run. However, once its setup its pretty solid. A lot of users installing under Ubuntu may experience error 500 on some pages. This was resolved by updating "php7.0-xml". This took a while to find the solution for though.

February 15, 2018

As we are not an American company, it's so difficult finding an HR program that works for us. This has been a godsend!

Pros

Very easy to use. offers many features and very customizable! If it's not in there yet, there's a chance you'll be able to add it. The program has so much to offer.

### "Sentrifugo, a power packed tool indeed!"

December 29, 2014

4.0

Pros

There is this concept of widgets and shortcuts. Also, in the footer there is something called “Recently viewed”. They are the best. Widgets display all the data right after I login and shortcuts let me visit the desired page without clicking too many menus and sub menus. The multiple approval for resource requisitions, interviews and leaves has absolutely automated the process and lessened our burden to half.

Cons

Right now, the application is not integrated with Attendance Management and Performance Appraisal. They are working on the modules at the moment.

### "The perfect HRM for our business"

January 4, 2017

4.0

Our company deals with multiple clients on regular basis. For each client we need to submit time sheets on various parameters which were difficult when we had many variables to take into account. Sentrifugo made our work easy with its Time-sheet management system which helped us create custom reports and send them for approval.

Cons

No Payroll module, Billing & invoicing.

February 25, 2016

4.0

Sentrifugo is a great software and it's quite a deal for a free application. The user interface is really good. The latest version 2.1 is a considerable improvement from the previous versions. It has the Time Management module, something which we really needed. Though I'm really looking forward for a Payroll feature in the future versions.

April 11, 2016

I use Sentrifugo HRMS to store our employee records and for leave management. It is quite easy to set up and to get started with. Employees use the Self Service module to schedule their time offs. No special training was required.I look forward to seeing the mobile application of Sentrifugo.

### "Overall, Sentrifugo is an easy and useful application to track vacations, and staff related info."

February 6, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like that it is really easy to use, and easy to setup. Sentrifugo helps our organization to track vacations and also track extra time worked

Cons

Sentrifugo is a really limited application, it does not integrate with major applications, and it is a little complicated to customize it. On the other hand, the sentrifugo community takes few weeks to answer questions.
