Reviews of Sapling

"New Hire - Sapling was a great day 1 resource"

Pros: I was hired into a new job, and had sapling access day 1. It was an amazing resource for me as a new hire. It gave me a plethora of information that was well organized, informative and very intuitive to use.

Cons: I have not been using it very long, but no Cons so far!

"A SOLUTION FOR ACCURATE HRIS DATA TRACKING"

Pros: Sapling provides a good interactive experience that eliminates duplicate efforts while attempting to accurately track important data for both the employee and management perspective.

Cons: In getting up and running, the directive on how to load historical data from the employee perspective was vague.

"Very simple onboarding flow and process"

Pros: Very simple step by step process to complete the flow. Uploading and reviewing documents was very simple as well. The pages seem very well polished and look modern compared to other HR web apps I've used in the past.

Cons: There are no error messages displayed for required fields and they can be hard to notice. Another improvement I would suggest is to split up some of the forms into multiple pages or have a way to save progress.

"Simple. Clean. Useful."

Pros: Keeping all my paperwork in one place, organization of on-boarding is critical to success. The software did a great job of keeping all my ducks in a row as I got up to speed.

Cons: Nothing at the moment. I don't have any real complaints at this point

"First Time User"

Overall: The easiness of using Sapling is great for a first time user.

Pros: The clean and clear background of the software.

Cons: For someone who is new to using this software, I did not see anything that I would change about my experience.

"So far it's good for the on-boarding process. Especially getting them started before they join."

Overall: Getting information out the candidate before they begin and being able to give tasks to employees for new hires.

Pros: I can pass on tasks to other employees in the company and getting information to the employee before they begin.

Cons: Still some bugs they need to get through. I'd like to be able to customize a little more, but overall a good program.

"Very helpful tool to get people on board"

Pros: The best part is the UI they are providing to the users, They are frequently changing the UI to improve customer satisfaction. The support we are getting from the customer team is also the best they are very supportive. we can easily look at everyone's important information with a simple but pretty view.

Cons: When they are implementing new features it takes a lot of time. They should focus more to get the integration with other platforms.

"Fantastic! The Sapling team is so helpful and responsive."

Pros: User friendly, easy to navigate for HR onboarding and offboarding. One of the rep is great about checking in to help and also updating our team on any changes or improvements that are coming up.

Cons: There are a couple of integrations that could be helpful if added such as Slack notifications. Would like for the org chart to be easier to use - sometimes has issues zooming in and out.

"First impression"

Pros: Clean, easy to use and navigate. The prompts were clear. This is my first time using the software, I was using it to get onboarded and to learn about my new team.

Cons: The People area didn't give me the views I needed all the time. For instance, when I clicked into one person from a specific department that I filtered, I saw the rest of the team on the side in circular icon form, but I had to role over to see their names, and I had no way of seeing their position, organizational structure. I also (when I hit the back button after that) it brought me back to the whole company and I had to filter all over again. I wish I was also able to see the team structure visually on someone's profile, including my own. And, be able to just click (XYZ team) on the side by profile pics to bring me directly back to the team I filtered.

"Great Concept "

Overall: Sapling is a great tool to ensure a new hire is all set on their first day, when it works properly.

Pros: I like that new hires are able to complete essential information before their start date so they don't have to spend time on their first day completing their tax form and I-9. Also, managers are able to fill in information about their need hire, like software needs, and IT can view and work with that info.

Cons: Inconsistency. Sometimes the program works as needed, sometimes it doesn't and there's no way of telling unless the new hire contacts you before their first day letting you know that they're having tech issues. Also, if an email is scheduled to go out a few days in the future, there's no way to edit or make changes to the scheduled email once you've onboarded the new hire.

"Simple, easy to use tool that allowed me to virtually meet my coworkers before day one."

Overall: quickly and easily signed onboarding documents before my start day so I could focus on building relationships when I arrived at my new job instead of paperwork. Provided an easy to tackle to-do list for my first week.

Pros: I loved being able to check out the profiles of my future coworkers and see the organization mapped out by team.

Cons: I wish I could have advanced past the "upload a photo" page to finish signing docs and inputting other text info and come back once I had a photo ready. I didn't have a photo on hand so I it paused my process and i had to walk away and come back to it days later.

"Easy Onboarding"

Pros: Made it very easy to get started with my new role - clear onboarding instructions, details about the company, and notifications on tax documents and identification I had to bring.

Cons: The mobile interface wasn't as easy to use -- I started the docs in Mobile and ended up switching back to my computer.

"First time user on Sapling"

Pros: Simple to use and a slick user experience.

Cons: Nothing at this time. Maybe give me another week.
