February 5, 2024

5.0

Me and my colleagues that used SYMPA always liked it a lot! It was easy to introduce to the organization and easy to improve overtime. We got a system that made us more effective.

Pros

An HR system that is very easy to adopt to the business needs. It is very easy to take out reports. It really makes HR work more efficient!

Cons

In the earlier version it did not keep track of all changes in the system, now this has been improved.

### "Easy to use"

November 2, 2022

4.0

Sympa saves time for both HR and leaders at our company.

Pros

We looked for a system that could be scaled after our needs. Also a system that could be integrated with our salary/time system. We found that in Sympa. The implementation was well structured.

Cons

We miss a good competence matrix. The support can sometimes take time.

### "Sympa helped us change the way of working"

March 20, 2020

4.0

The easy access to the system and information has helped everyone in the organization a lot.

Pros

With Sympa the time consumption of making reports and administrative tasks were reduced by at least 70 %. The managers love the easy access to all information about their employees that they needed to ask HR about before. It looks good and is easy to access. Sympa was a great help in setting up the system in the best way for our organisations needs. I fell that Sympa listens to the customers needs and is trying to develope the system frequently.

Cons

I still miss a good feature to work with appraisals. It fells a little bit edgy still and we have to invent and priorize a little to much to make the form/feature good.

### "HR tool that makes onboarding and goal setting much simpler than I've experienced before!"

December 14, 2021

5.0

My overall experience has been very positive. Sympa has been a really important aspect of our company and the management of HR internally and getting that information out to employees. At my last company we didn't have anything like it, so it's been a huge help.

Pros

I like that the portal is completely customized for our organization. When I log in, I have access to tons of resources, a company directory (we're global so it's really helpful), and my business goals, PDP, sales quotas, etc.

Cons

The user interface could be a bit cleaner, but overall it's really great!
