What do you like best about BambooHR?

Its super easy to use, keep track of things, use as an employee document storage, and run reports. Its very user friendly and our employees love being able to find all their information in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

The customer support is not always the fastest to get back to you. We recently implemented the 'Benefits' piece of BambooHR and we've had a few kinks to work out for far. It works well, but not as user friendly as the rest of BambooHR. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Less paper files for employee onboarding and they can all be found easily now.

We love the ATS piece of BambooHR. It works so slick to add a job and have it posted to multiple sites and have them all synced and flowing to one place. Game changer for our hiring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BambooHR?

I love that BambooHR keeps all of our personnel files secure. We no longer have file cabinets full of files, and our employees have easy access to salary information and benefits. The implementation was quick and painless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

There aren't too many things to dislike about BambooHR except that I can't get report headers. It's frustrating to run a report for a certain date period, and it shows the date you ran the report, not the time period covered on the report. This should be an easy fix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

BambooHR seamlessly handles our onboarding process, making it very easy for new hires to complete their onboarding paperwork. We can easily distribute forms for signatures through BambooHR. This allows me to easily see who has completed their forms and who hasn't. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BambooHR?

Bamboo is very easily to navigate and is clearly laid out so you know where to find what information and it is displayed very clearly. It is easy to update employee information and the hiring function is very useful as you can link it to online hiring platforms.

The notification functions are also very helpful and I love that you can do peer feedback and staff surveys through the programme. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

My biggest complaint about Banboo is not that the help centre is based in the States and it can take some time to resolve queries.

Also the way bamboo shows someone's annual

Leave balance is a little confusing and can sometimes lead to employees thinking they have more left than they currently do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Having all information in one place and ensuring no employee data is missing.

It also helps to have all the hiring/candidate information in one place too Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about BambooHR?

Bamboo HR is a GAME CHANGER!! As a small business owner, I don't have a lot of time to figure out software programs and make them work for me. With BambooHR, that is not needed! It is so easy to use!! They have amazing customer service with most special requests getting implemented immediately. Seriously I don't know what I did before BambooHR! I use ALL of their modules daily -- HR, payroll, performance, benefits, time tracking, and I'm super excited to start using the two new pieces -- total rewards and employee community! The number one thing that is making me write this review is Bamboo's response to customer feedback. They actually listen! So many things I've suggested are now available! Great job Bamboo! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

I cannot think of any downsides of BambooHR. I would like to see them add a customizable staff scheduling feature, and I'd also like to see more cutomizable access levels. Right now, some things are only allowed for "full admin users," but I'd like to be able to give bits and pieces of full admin status to different individuals. I'm sure they will come out with this soon since I know they listen to their customers! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Solving the problem of tracking everything HR! We develop our hiring ads, track applicants and hire from one page. Then they automatically transfer into the HR side for us and seamlessly flow into onboarding. We track onboarding progress and set reminders to ensure everything is completed on time. Employees clock in/out, an administrator approves timesheets, and then I process payroll with all this data in one place and so easy to manage! I cannot say enough good things about having everything in one spot and working so well together! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BambooHR?

It's incredibly user-friendly, and it keeps everything our team needs to access all in one place regarding internal management. I love the ability to add Performance milestones to track, leave peer reviews anonymously directly in the platform, and it's so easy to request time off or review and sign new internal documents. I'd highly recommend this to any company with a large team to manage seamlessly across the entire organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

Honestly I haven't found a downside yet!! BambooHR has improved our internal HR processes so so much! It was so easy to switch to and the community support is incredible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Tracking trajectory from one position to the next...it's hard to gauge without setting milestones and goals to reach, that are only visible to me and my manager. I'm able to make private goals to help me stay on track for my overarching goal, and my manager is able to root for me along the way and offer the support I need since we're on the same page during the entire process.

What do you like best about BambooHR?

What I like best about BambooHR is the convenience of having a single platform for keeping records, managing documents, and tracking time off, all with detailed and comprehensive features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

What I dislike about BambooHR is that when an employee's time-off policy is changed, the previous policy is removed from their view. I believe it would be beneficial to retain access to past policies for both employees and administrators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

BambooHR helps by keeping records organized and allowing employees to add their own documents. This significantly reduces the number of emails I receive with document attachments and saves time on printing and scanning to update the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
