Pros We love the socially engaging, easy to use interface. The home page really connects our global team with updates on what is happening across the business and strengthens our culture. The talent tools for surveying across all stages of the lifecycle has been the driver of much process improvement, development opportunities and always sharpening our practices and engagement levels. The new improvements to the job catalogue and AI across the platform have been great. Such a time saver! Cons The time off function is complicated and clunky and doesn't integrate well with our other tools, leading to inefficiency - if only the payroll function would come for AU :) Pricing on some of the add-ons has been high so we have not engaged with them but it integrates well with our chosen ATS and LMS.

People Operations Specialist II Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Very Happy With Our Decision to Switch to HiBob " May 14, 2026 5.0 Overall, the basic functions available to all employees are very intuitive. The UI is lovely, the features are great, and I love how centralized everything is. It's really easy to get to things like payroll and different surveys and engagement opportunities the People Team puts out. Pros HiBob has SO MUCH incredible capability-- I'm actually blown away by the collaboration that we can accomplish all in one tool across so many teams. I loved how thorough their team was during implementation-- they took us through each and every step and made sure we were fully enabled and capable of our data overhaul and implementation before our go-live date. Everything about the platform feels secure and safe-- the appropriate permission levels are available to us to ensure that everyone is able to see just enough that's acceptable for their level. We are loving the value that we are getting from this product-- well worth the money! Cons Truthfully, this is a non-issue. It's still a relatively new tool for us. There is SO MUCH capability and so many little granular options that is can be a little overwhelming familiarizing yourself with it at first. As we get more comfortable, I'm sure this will dissipate. Switched from [Namely](https://www.capterra.com/p/143606/Namely/) Our previous product could no longer meet our needs Review Source TA Tiffany A. VP and Head of Employee Success Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great solution for your mid sized company" October 21, 2025 4.0 Pros I like the look, it's very friendly and I like the org chart and directory. You can do some good custom fields and I like that it supports all countries. Cons I wish the settings and reports could be more robust. Also, the way to search through employees could be easier. The customer service is hard to get a hold of at times. Switched from [Gusto](https://www.capterra.com/p/131882/Gusto/) Moved from small company to large company and needed to support more countries.

Group IT Director Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Highly recommended and customisable tool for multiple uses" October 27, 2025 4.0 Overall, we were very happy with the platform as it had minimal bugs and issues, was easy for users and administrators, and was intuitive, minimising any learning curve. Pros Simple user interface but enough API integration with our SSO to enhance security. We also utilised HiBob for onboarding and offboarding which triggered alerts for other departments to carry out tasks and also for carrying out internal reviews every six months. Cons The cost was high for a recognise HR platform and these costs increased a couple of times a year. Overage charges were not at the same rate so often went above what we had budgeted for. Alternatives considered [PeopleForce](https://www.capterra.com/p/183096/PeopleForce/)[BambooHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/) Reason for choosing HiBob More complete took with more features and easy to implement and manage.

Chief Executive Officer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "It does work well enough for my needs" May 13, 2026 5.0 We are now down to one location for data versus the previous 5 spreadsheets in Excel that would never match up (which is great). It manages the german legal requirements and GDPR issues so I don’t have to worry about the legal department screaming at me. The check lists for on boarding make sure I complete the items I need to even if I’m rushed. Pros I am typing this as my radiator clicks away and I am happy to report that the payroll interface is communicating with our other systems again, therefore eliminating the tedious export/import cycle we were doing on all employee salary slips. I was impressed that the c-level management can locate the “Viewer” files without asking me to explain how to access them. Cons The reports are extremely convoluted and I still have no idea what exactly the individual settings include and/or why they lack substance. There are times the reports take forever to load and there are random glitches that are critical to our business – those are nightmares. I specifically hate having to purchase an entire $$$$ add-on package simply for one small function for our team.

Pros It's a good tool for all the HR-related topics, such as requesting time off, uploading/reviewing/signing all the necesary documents, conducting performace reviews and 1-on-1 meetings. Cons I would change a bit the interface and the structure of the website. The structure of the website is not very straightforward: it was not easy to figure out that there are two tabs: Bob and Talent, so I couldn't find right away the space for my 1-on-1 and performance review. The colours and the design of the website could have been better too. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Sr Director of People Ops Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Bob is a great add to your People Team " January 9, 2025 4.0 All in Bob is great, we often call him "Our Bestie Bob" and speak of him as an actual member of our team. Pros Bob is really multifaceted and has filled a lot of gaps we have as a smaller People team. It honestly is a bit more than we need at our org size, but I can toggle off things we don't utilize, which is super helpful. Being in several countries Bob was an easy call to make because the level of detail is there for things like holidays and what information we need for folks based on their locations. The integrations to our other tech stack are also amazing compared to other systems we have utilized. Cons Some of the processes to set things up seem to be over complicated, but support is usually able to assist and there is a very robust library to problem solve with. The reporting can take a bit to learn how to get what you want but once you do it's actually really great.

Switched from [BambooHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/) they could not keep up with the demand we had to support our international employees, and there was a lot of manual work that bob cut out Review Source AL Andrii L. Senior consultant Industrial Automation Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "popular HR management tool " February 2, 2025 5.0 Good tool, very popular, very functional and priced moderately. Good to manage team up to 200 users. Pros hi Bot is trully popular solution within HR managers. So they use it on the top of finger tips. In includes onboarding, time and event tracking and connectivity to payroll system. Priced affordably for every size of business. Good is build in Microsoft AUTH module not only Google that makes sence. Very logical embedded menue logic in interface. Cons Would be good to have build in sophisticated Aplicant Tracking System with sourcing from 3D party profiles. Not large variety of payroll providers (Xero) but could be issue for international contractors. Good to have password manager for direct user assignments and information record about user hardware received from company.

Data Analyst Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "HR tool that does what is intended to do but not perfect" April 14, 2025 3.0 Overall it's fine, it does the job with requesting sick leave and the shortcut for filling out timesheet is a good functionality. However, like any tool, it isn’t perfect. There’s room for improvement in terms of customization and data transparency, particularly around payroll details. Pros Requesting vacation or sick leave only takes just a few clicks, and I get real-time updates on the status of my requests. Cons The app is slightly clunky to use and some parts are hard to navigate. Payroll breakdowns are optional for HR to fill out so it would be great to have a clearer view of deductions and tax breakdowns without having to reach out to HR. The social feed and engagement features are nice to have but not somthing I am particularly interested in. Review Source CB Colin B. CTIO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy to use and full featured, employee friendly" February 8, 2025 4.0 Really positive, works well for the team, supports SSO, allows us to integrate kudos system and easy to use. Pros It doesn’t feel too corporate, fits well with the startup/scaleup culture we have. Easy to record absences and find team information easily too. Cons Mobile app doesn’t quite have the same features as the desktop site.

It has been appealing to the eye. It has really eased the workload around the office. Cons I do not have any negative comments about Bob. I have enjoyed using the program and would recommend it to friends and other coworkers with businesses.

Customizable Workflows: Hibob’s flexible workflows are great for tailoring the HR experience to match your company's unique needs, from onboarding to performance management. People Analytics: Bob provides comprehensive analytics and insights, empowering HR teams to make data-driven decisions around engagement, retention, and team development. Cons Nothing really negative to say. I really like it. Review Source AK Angelos K. Snr Performacne Marketing associate Hospitality Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A great and simple platform" November 20, 2024 4.0 Despite a few minor drawbacks, the platform has made my communication with hr easier Pros The platform's user-friendly interface is its standout feature—navigating through Bob feels intuitive and efficient. it is really easy to request time off and check on events. Additionally, the focus on employee-centric features like the culture hub and pulse surveys fosters a sense of community and are pretty fun Cons Bob excels in many areas, the mobile app feels a bit limited compared to the desktop version, particularly when it comes to accessing detailed analytics and reports. There’s also a slight learning curve for non-tech-savvy users when setting up complex workflows or integrations with other platforms. Review Source WK Warren K. Sales manager Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Your best HR friend " December 9, 2024 5.0 Excellent user friendly interface. UX experience is world class. Very intuitive and easy to use. Pros I have used many tools like this and Bob is by far the best. In terms of interface it is very pleasant on the eye. The UX is top notch giving users an easy and effective way to navigate. I love the organizational structure feature as well, very simple to use. Cons Almost nothing, you have to almost make something up to fill this space as there really isn’t a lot wrong with it. Review Source DD David D.

Key Account Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great for performance reviews and time management" August 28, 2024 5.0 Pros Easy to use platform - book holiday/sick/birthday leave at the click of a button. I like the integration to google calendar. Easy to see when colleagues are scheduled to be off. We also recently started using for performance reviews. Cons Nothing noteworthy to mention here. I like the product Switched from [CharlieHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/158631/Charlie-HR/) I wasn't involved in the decision to switch providers Review Source AA Ali A. Customer Specialist Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good application for for small companies." August 5, 2024 5.0 Overall experience is positive, small companies which have less then 1K employees might find this app very useful, Pros Very simple look, and quite intuative. It is good for small companies for managing employees time punchs and holiday requests. Cons Lacking of regular updates, and feels like a bit empty and basic regarding the functions that other similar apps provide such as Polaris PSA's "Replicon". Review Source AC Amy C. Senior Account Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "HiBob for HR Portal" August 14, 2024 4.0 Pros I like that you can look up all employees in your company to learn their title, office and boss. That is very helpful at a large company. It is also helpful to have all your payroll, documents, time off etc all in one place. Cons There are times when I have had some glitching when using Bob - i.e. I am unable to use the search bar for some reason. Review Source PB Pankaj B. IT Operates and Support Manager Financial Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Backbone HR" June 10, 2024 4.0 Pros In it's absolute definition HiBob is our backbone when it comes to employee management with it's simple yet effective Google integration! I'd definitely recommend it! Cons It's task reminders are not consistent and sometimes it duplicates the tasks when an auto tasks is triggered manually. If a task is triggered manually the auto version should not be triggered. Alternatives considered [Zoho People](https://www.capterra.com/p/110931/Zoho-People/)[BambooHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/) Reason for choosing HiBob Cost compared to it's competitors, it's Support and ease of use. Switched from [Blissfully](https://www.capterra.com/p/177308/Blissfully/) Cost, it's lack of support and complex configuration. Review Source RD Roy D. Director of software engineering Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Simple, light, Great!" December 2, 2023 5.0 Overall experience is very good, much better than all previous solutions. Especially since it combines everything into one place which is neat and easy to use. Pros Simple and easy to use system that centralizes everything for employees and managers. I find myself open it many times. I also used the API which was well documented and easy to use and created simple automations to pull out some information. Cons Some of the screens are a bit overloaded and “old fashioned”. E.g the employee information. It could use a better UX and a fresh look. Review Source SM Sara M. P&C Operations Specialist Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The Best HRIS of the market" May 10, 2023 5.0 We solved the global management of a lot of employees of different countries, as you can define sites and places depending on the country, and apply different time policies, and set different configurations as your convenience. The support team helps you to solve any doubt or question, and gives you all the documents and excels to import all the data you need. Pros I think ALL. Is the best tool to keep your employees database with all the HR needs. It's contain all the needs and functionalities. I did not try the payroll system. But I wish I could develop it sooner than later. Cons Nothing. I think is the best tool available in the market. Reason for choosing HiBob Because Bob has a lot of useful functionalities, all very important on the HR side. Review Source DP Diana P. Salesforce Administrator Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Streamlining HR Operations with HiBob" April 26, 2024 5.0 Overall, our experience with Bob has been highly positive. It has significantly improved our HR processes, from time tracking to performance management and feedback collection. The platform's user-friendly interface, robust features, and responsive support team have made it a valuable asset for our organization, driving efficiency, compliance, and employee engagement. We look forward to continued success with Bob as our HR solution. Pros The efficiency and convenience of Bob's time tracking and time off request features were particularly impressive. It streamlined our HR operations and made it easy for both employees and administrators to manage time-related tasks. Additionally, the integration capabilities with other HR systems ensured a seamless workflow. Cons While Bob generally excelled in its functionalities, one area for improvement could be the customization options for surveys and feedback. Having more flexibility in designing and tailoring surveys to specific needs would enhance the platform's versatility. Review Source GB Gary B.

At the bottom that shows you a video on how to use the page is incredible for set up. Everything you need is in HiBob and there is always 2/3 different ways to do a task to suit each organisation. Pros HiBob tracks all out HR data in one place and we can access it with ease. When we onboard new employees, they love it and it makes us look really professional as a company. Cons The mobile app is great but you can’t see other people leave. A company view like there is on the desktop would be perfect. Alternatives considered [BambooHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/) Reason for choosing HiBob Other companies experiences. They warned me off it from the time to set up and implement to overal use of the product. Review Source MD Marija D. People Manager E-Learning Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Affordable, customisable and easy to navigate " May 30, 2023 5.0 We are satisfied with hibob as our HRIS solution. We are a remote company so it´s really important that all is in one place and that we can track each other bank holidays, different announcements and just being able to get all relevant data with few clicks. Pros The easiness of setting up and customising the system to the company's needs. Not to forget that the price was less than what we were paying for another software that has not had half of the features like hibob. In the end, the system is pretty straightforward for the users, if you are an admin you can easily get the information you need and all is even accessible from your phone. Cons Some of the features could be more customisable such as an organisation chart, conditioning on reviews but if you do report it to the team they communicate if that customisation is on the roadmap or if they believe they will develop it. It would be great to have webinars on new features and great practises of hibob employees itself. Switched from [Personio](https://www.capterra.com/p/158622/Personio/) Hibob suited our organisation more, it was cheaper and more customisable considering that our staff is working across 20+ countries of the world. Not to mention that the interface is easier to navigate.
