What do you like best about BambooHR?

BambooHR has been extremely helpful in streamlining and standardizing our onboarding process and ensuring all employee information is received and documented. We've barely skimmed the surface of the available reporting but have already utilized it for evaluating wage increases, sending out performance reviews, and ensuring no employee is left out of company-wide updates.

Having an assigned implementation partner was extremely helpful and made onboarding smooth. We were able to integrate with several of our other programs including our benefits administration portal, and have employee information automatically import.

We find a new way to utilize Bamboo almost every day - especially with new features being constantly added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

I would prefer more customizable options in the signature documents and performance review templates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

BambooHR has streamline our hiring, onboarding, and employee maintenance. We no longer have to worry about employees falling through the gaps during communications, documentation, or information updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BambooHR?

The ease of onboarding new employees has made a significant difference in our processes, allowing us to integrate new team members seamlessly.

Additionally, the time tracking and PTO management features have streamlined our operations, making it simple to handle approvals and track time off efficiently. This functionality has been invaluable for both our HR team, managers, and our employees.

Customer service, even through CHAT, is always responsive and spot-on!

Thank you for creating such a user-friendly platform. I look forward to seeing what new features you will roll out in the future! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

While BambooHR offers basic reporting, some users feel that the reporting features could be more robust or intuitive, particularly for advanced analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Onboarding, performance management, workforce management for time/PTO, and all HR functions in terms of paperwork. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BambooHR?

Document signing, staff directory, personal info storage & reports.

The whole area looks clear & appealing.

It is easy to set up, join accounts together for multiple users, staff never have any problems with it & there is never any outage / technical issue overall.

It can be used on a computer, ipad, phone, laptop etc.

It is usually easy to modify settings & update things & there are never days where things are loading, unavailable or in progress.

Notifications fro birthdays, anniversaries etc. are great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

Some sections are quite inflexible, especially with the basic packages. For example, there is no easy way to block time off in the calendar for everyone, so you have to manually create an "event" for that day to avoid people booking time off on mandatory training days etc.

Customer support is great, but if you don't live in the USA, it is more difficult with the time zones & lack of a phone number in your country, so it becomes an email-only scenario.

Automatic security log-out tends to be too quick, but otherwise a useful feature: setting the time-out period would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

It cuts down on the tedium of reporting, manually tracking staff details, holidays, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, not much. There are continual improvements and use and reporting are second to none. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BambooHR?

BambooHR does a great job with its recruitment process. The system is easy to use and connects well with ZipRecruiter and Glassdoor. By allowing members on your team to view and share comments it would be great. I wish it was able to tie into LinkedIn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

The customer support is lackluster. The chat feature is helpful when you have 30 minutes to wait however there are various items that it is not able to fulfill upon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Able to facilitate payroll and assist with recruitment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BambooHR?

Easy to use, effective features & layouts. A little bit of work to set up some of the things, but once it's done it makes a lot of tasks a breeze. Coming from a clunky large payroll provider BambooHR is a breath of fresh air! A few random last minute payroll issues I've had were always handled promptly and able to sort everything out - it would take days to hear back from prior solution, if ever. I always recommend it to anyone I know using another provider! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

I thought it was odd we have to update our own tax rates and such. Other providers I've worked with do this for you and I just expect that with any payroll provider. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Everything easy in one place. Digital signing removed a lot of paperwork mess from handbooks etc, easy onboarding tasks makes sure everything gets done and great UI for employees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that everything is organized and all in one place. It makes things so easy to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

I can't really think of any downsides to using BambooHR. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our biggest problem that BambooHR solves is organization. Before BambooHR we were all on paper and thing were difficult to find and easily misplaced. Now that any of the admins can access the employee's info at any time and any place we don't have to worry about anything being misplaced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BambooHR?

After using many human resources management websites in every company where I have been hired, BambooHR is undoubtedly the best! The functionalities it has and the simple and intuitive interface make it the best of all in my point of view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

Nothing, the truth is that all the interface and features that it has are very useful when it comes to managing my vacations, permissions and other important things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

When it comes to requesting vacation time, it is the easiest to communicate directly with human resources, which makes everything much faster to manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
