What differentiates BambooHR from other similar products?

BambooHR is very intuitive, regularly develops new features to stay up to date.

The ATS makes me gain a lot of time, is very user friendly, and enables you to automate many tasks.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Sometimes the features are updated without any notice.

If you consider it for the ATS system, it is very effective. I feel like it differentiates a little less for the other HR management aspects (benefits, performance...)

Platform to find better talents and employees.

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates BambooHR from other similar products?

BambooHR is a platform that not only allows you to manage a company's current employees as well as its competitors, but also offers a wide variety of service ranging from talent search to a time tracking system, payroll and management of tutoring material for current employees. In addition, it offers a better search for talent in a more specific way than other platforms, with Bamboo you can find talent with a much more complete search engine that helps you get the best candidate for any area, be it marketing, sales or another area of your company.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I love the work hours tracking system, this is essential since the platform automatically detects the time an employee has entered and the time they have left their office, this helps us to account for the total work hours without having to do it manually, in addition, the Payroll system is quite complete, it allows you to make payroll payments online in a very simple way and making any type of deduction from the total payment that corresponds to the employees. The employee management system allows for adding tutoring material to improve the knowledge and performance of currenty employees its is very helpful to improve employee capacity.

What do you dislike most about this product?

We haven't experienced any failures in the employee management, talent management and workforce management functions that BambooHR has provided us with, it has performed very well in my company.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

My main recommendation is that people who are considering using Bamboo, fully connect this platform and integrate it with all the task and project development services and many other platforms that are used in the work environment, in this way the platform will be more accurate in measuring work performance and will be able to improve the workforce in an automated way.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity

Features are magnificent, but too complex

Likeliness to Recommend

7 /10

What differentiates BambooHR from other similar products?

We chose it because focus on the employee experience was evident. For example, the self-service portal empowered our retail staff to manage their information effortlessly.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Not a surprise to have the employee self-service portal become the heart of our HR processes. Staff could request time off, access important documents, and update personal information without needing direct HR intervention, freeing up our team's time

What do you dislike most about this product?

Impossible to understand the reports algorithm.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It is a great investment, try it.

Pros

  • Respectful
  • Acts with Integrity
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
