BambooHR Turns a Small Business into a Big Business

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: I enjoyed it more than other recruiting software I've used. It makes work easier and helps me be a manager instead of a paper pusher.

Pros:

I personally like that BambooHR has different portals for its users. They've built a database that allows employees to: 1. Maintain their own records (whether the company sends or user uploaded); track time off earned, sick days used, and hours worked; while allowing the user to sign documents easily electronically; and 2. Makes being an HR manager, easy. What I mean is, creating records (employees or temps) and ensuring they have all the blocks checked (background ran, drug test paperwork properly filled out, and any other documentation needing signed) within the timeframe needed to start working - is tracked, maintained, and recorded for you... so all in all, eliminates the monotony of HR and time wasted on paperwork while assisting managers/employees in ensuring proper compliance.

Cons:

Well, I still had to scan any documents that weren't created or automated through the software and label them. For example, I work at a satellite location; the warehouse I staff for has a basketball court out back for employees to use on their break. I had to create a document that stated employees for my agency had to make sure they were clocked out, that they were responsible for any risk of injury and that the company and staffing agency would not be held liable for any resulting injury that may occur. The rest of the staffing agency didn't need this so I still had to print out 50 copies, have each employee sign one, upload it, file it in the employee file in the software, label it, then give the copy back to the employee. This really is not an issue unless if turnover is high, this could get annoying.

Integrated in our daily HR operations

3.0 4 weeks ago New

Pros:

We use BambooHR for several years and it would be impossible to miss it. It is integrated with our performance mgmt tool and ATS, which makes it very efficient to communicate and keep a proper overview.

Cons:

Less integrations with EU based tools, since it is an US based tool.

Good choice for small and medium-sized businesses looking to streamline their HR processes

4.0 2 months ago New

Comments: Easy to use - the interface is clean and well-organized, making it easy to find the information you need quickly. Good customer support and is a great tool for small or medium businesses. Although it's missing some important features, but it seems the company is slowly implementing updates and improving it.

Pros:

highly intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy for businesses to navigate and use. The interface is clean and well-organized, making it easy to find the information you need quickly.

Cons:

Reporting is very weak for Hiring/applicant tracking. There are useless reports like "Candidates by Veteran Status and Gender" , while the information i need the most would be like success rate - how many candidates applied and how many of those were hired in the last quarter? OR which roles are receiving the least applications, OR employee retention rates and many more missing reports.
