What do you like best about Dovetail HR?

Employee self-service functionality via solutions we create and manage internally. This saves time and effort for employees to locate the information they need and minimizes work by HR representatives not having to work through common, repetitive employee inquiries. Case management, which is available not only for our HR department but also managers and employees, including history tracking, file storage, and all related correspondence stored neatly in one place. The system also serves as a "one-stop-shop" for all employees to contact HR, providing streamlined and more efficient service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dovetail HR?

As both a system administrator and user of Dovetail HR, I am akin to many sides and elements of the system functionality. I appreciate that many pieces are highly customizable from an administrator's perspective. However, it can sometimes be confusing when various setup elements can be edited via various pages. This leads to some repetitive navigation and work to confirm that I have completed what I intended to do. Also, while more accessible and more convenient than a query, the search functionality from the agent portal home page is not helpful for locating certain items since it pulls in far too many results and in no apparent particular order. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Dovetail HR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Promoting employee self-service. Improving HR service and efficiency by reducing duplicated work, having solutions available to employees, and easing the storage of employee case history. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
