Using BambooHR has simplified all of our HR processes and saved a ton of time for our staff. Many of their services, including talent management, onboarding, performance, and more, are in use by our company. With the help of several HR management programs, it is no longer an issue.

A Streamlined Solution for Fast-Growing Companies

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates BambooHR from other similar products?

I don't have a lot of experience with other solutions like this, but what I will say is that for my company, BambooHR has greatly eased some of the HR admin strains and confusion we had before, and helped with the process of onboarding whole new teams from companies my company has acquired.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

BambooHR has streamline the PTO and Sick leave request process and visibility for others in the company, helped to answer many questions by providing a fairly self-service and centralized place for quick-access HR information, and helped with things like goal tracking and self review.

What do you dislike most about this product?

There is some definite inflexibility with the platform. The Review and Employee Development modules are rigid and don't allow for much customization, and... since most companies do these things uniquely from others, that lack of flexibility causes confusion and frustration.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Use it for efficiency, consistency, and HR management, but perhaps consider another tool or process for Goal Tracking and employee development planning and tracking.

Pros

  • Trustworthy
  • Caring
  • Respectful
  • Client Friendly Policies
