What do you like best about Employment Hero?

My personal appreciation for this platform is: everything is available on my phone. I check my leave and make plans on the weekend with friends, and I don’t have to wait until Monday to give them a yes or no. I check, access and download my payslips in my hands when I need it and the tones of partnerships if simply amazing... (I’ve already used your program for flights)

Work wise: Great holistic view of m department. Allows for me see a calendar of Annual leave. I have mange approvals at different times of the year. I can manage all performance reviews and coaching in one system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Employment Hero?

The most helpful part of Employment Hero is that it is all at your finger tips; from onboarding to employee management, ensuring policy compliance from employees to celebrating team wins.

The HR platform was easy to implement, and when required, the support team were able to quickly assist with any questions, queries or issues we were having, especially during the implementation which was a breeze to work through.

We use the platform all day, every day and being able to integrate it with our employees was so simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Employment Hero?

The only thing that we had issues with was the complexity of our Enterprise Bargaining Agreement and implementing that in the Payroll platform. Many rule sets had to be configured and tweaked to ensure they were working correctly, however, the support team were extremely helpful to help resolve whatever issues we encountered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Employment Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?

Employment Hero has solved our issue of previously having to rely on a very heavy paper-based system, reduces human errors by having automations in place for both HR and Payroll, allows better visibility into employee satisfaction, performance and management of employee on employee issues, as well as being able to monitor our onboarding process (which was previously non-existent).

What do you like best about Employment Hero?

One of the best features is the automation. It automatically calculates everything, from tax deductions to superannuation contributions, ensuring everything is accurate without the need for constant oversight. The integration with other HR features is seamless too, making it easy to manage employee records and stay compliant with the latest regulations. We recently moved from being a non-award entity to being under an award and I must say Employment Hero features has made this transition smooth. We are loving the ease of implementation for online forms and performance reviews. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Employment Hero?

Customer support have changed slightly. There are more steps included now prior to reaching a human customer service. All in all, service is still great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Employment Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?

Employment Hero has assisted us in transitioning to a more digital landscape by ensuring that all our forms, onboarding, rosters, and performance reviews are facilitated in one platform. It has also allowed us to make payroll processing more efficient by making use of the roster mechanism available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Emma Thean of Employment Hero

Thanks for the positive feedback Gianmaria, we appreciate it! It’s great to hear how our platform has helped streamline your payroll, onboarding, and performance management, especially during your transition to an award. We love that the automation and integrations are making things easier for your team!

Many thanks,

Emma @ Employment Hero

What do you like best about Employment Hero?

If you have ever found yourself buried under a mountain of HR paperwork, drowning in payroll confusion, or wondering if you actually sent that new employee their contract (spoiler: you did not), then Employment Hero is the workmate you never knew you needed.

This platform is like an HR fairy godmother, waving a digital wand and magically handling onboarding, payroll, and compliance with minimal effort on your part. It takes care of the nitty-gritty so you can focus on the important things, like pretending your Wi-Fi is down when someone schedules another meeting that should have been an email.

One of the best features? Payroll that does not make you want to throw your laptop out the window. It is smooth, automated, and ensures everyone gets paid on time, so no more awkward “uh… where is my salary?” messages from employees. Plus, the self-service portal means team members can update their own details, saving you from being the unpaid personal assistant for half the office.

The perks and benefits section is another win. Who does not love a good discount or reward for just showing up to work? It is like getting a loyalty card for your job, except instead of free coffee, you get real financial benefits.

Overall, Employment Hero makes HR tasks so easy, you might just start enjoying them. Or at the very least, stop crying into your coffee over compliance updates. Highly recommend! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Employment Hero?

Nada, nothing, she is a beauty. This makes my life so much easier the the old excel spreadsheets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Emma Thean of Employment Hero

Hi Heidi,

We’re so glad to hear that our platform is making your HR and payroll processes smoother and more enjoyable - no more drowning in paperwork or Excel spreadsheet nightmares! It’s great to know that features like automated payroll, seamless onboarding and self-service tools are helping you save time and focus on what really matters. Plus, who doesn’t love a good perk or reward? Thanks for sharing your experience, your support means a lot.

Many thanks,

Emma @ Employment Hero

What do you like best about Employment Hero?

Easy personal info and employment related document storage. Easy ability to manage multiple entities with one login. We love the one button Employee Happiness Survey. Great leave approval and visibility. We use it in our businesses daily. Straight integration with Xero. Great onboarding tool. All 'round it's a robust people management solution. Ive recommended a couple of improvements in the past which have all come through to the web app so the team are clearly invested in producing a high-value product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Employment Hero?

The review functionality is robust but not very flexible. It's not always user friendly and sometimes not intuitive but they seem quick to respond to feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Employment Hero?

Employment Hero makes managing and storing employee files so easy. Being able to track and update policies and performance reviews is also really helpful when managing an employees lifecycle. As the recruitment feature has developed significantly over the last couple of years it streamlines that whole process and makes sourcing and screening candidates much easier. They constantly update and add new features so I can tell they strive to make their platform the best for it's users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Employment Hero?

With constant updates, it can be difficult to stay on top of it all. In the past it feels like the communication of these updates were lacking or delayed making it stressful when things are changing for employees and I don't have answers yet. That being said, their customer support is always very responsive, helpful and friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Employment Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?

Employment Hero has been great at updating our very old, clunky and manual HR processes like probation evaluations and performance reviews and have made them easier to track, manage and complete for our employees. Having core HR processes available in one place and being automatically linked to the relevant employee's files has been great for saving time and stress when storing these documents.

What do you like best about Employment Hero?

The features of Employment Hero have changed the way we manage all aspects of recruitment, employee details, documents, performance, compliance, training, and employee recognition, to name a few. It has reduced our administration time in the People and Culture space and the regular support that we have been provided and continue to be provided is beyond anything I have had experienced any other platform.

Employment Hero are always adding improvements and take on suggestions for future features.

Nicole is our dedicated Customer Success Manager and other than being incredibly responsive, she is always able to provide the information to enable us to utilise the platform to suit our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Employment Hero?

The only feature that we would love to see, is form template creation that allow employees to type in information. I believe this has been earmarked as a future feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Employment Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?

Employment Hero is solving the need to have multiple platforms to manage the employee lifecycle, documentation and training etc. It has benefited Aspire Hub in so many ways, but mostly by having a platform to enable one source of truth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Emma Thean of Employment Hero

We're so pleased to hear that our platform has been instrumental in centralising your HR processes and providing a single source of truth for your organisation. It's our goal to make employment easier and more valuable to everyone. Your feedback is incredibly valuable to us, and we're committed to continuously improving our platform. We'll make sure to pass along your commendation to Nicole for her exceptional support.

Many thanks,

(Original )Information

From getting staff details digitally and being able to get rid of manual paper timesheets. Staff have access to their payslips on their phones and do not need me to download and print copies for them anymore.

Payroll use to take 3 people 1.5days now it takes 1 person 1 day or 2 people 1/2 day.

Payroll reports all in one area and no need to do multi tab excel workbooks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When running a payroll the system slows down at about 2pm AWST. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Employment Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to have all data for each employee in one system and not having to use upto 3 platforms to process payroll. Running reports that you do not need to export and manipulate to show real cost of employee wages to each are of the business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Yiying Chua of Employment Hero

Hi Kielley,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! It's so amazing to hear how much time and manpower you've saved from utilising the platform. We're always looking to improve the experience for our customers, the feedback you've shared is very helpful. I will pass that on to the team.

What do you like best about Employment Hero?

The streamlined Recruitment to onboarding to payroll to documentation and performance reviews.

The Award interpretation takes that stress off my hands too which is a big bonus! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Employment Hero?

When employees lose access to their email account t makes it difficult to then change their account email as they cannot access their old email to approve the change - a choice to text or email re. approval of the change would be an advantage here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Employment Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?

Award interpretation - automatically applies the correct pay rates, penalties etc

Termination pays are far easier now!

Onboarding - puts it in the employees hand and removes risk of data entry error. It also ensures that we ahve everything we need from the employee before they begin work with us - including their signed employment contract. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Emma Thean of Employment Hero

Hi Kyle, thanks for your feedback we're pleased to hear you find a lot of value from our platform and that it's made processing payroll under modern awards easier. Your support means a lot!

We've found Employment Hero really easy to use and implement.

It's become an essential tool for our team, and we rely on it constantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Employment Hero?

Single source of truth- our business is quite unique and to have so many things covered in the one platform- HRM, Payroll, Safety, Reward and recognition.

The implementation and integration of the system has been very easy and the support of the team at employment hero has been seamless.

Our team find the system very easy to use and to navigate and we are finding that the team are using the system more often and are getting better results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Employment Hero?

We intergrated the system with Payroll first then the HRM we have found that there are things in one platform that don't appear to have the same functionality than it has in the other. In saying that there has always been a work around and information regarding the ongoing development of the capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Employment Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?

our previous Payroll platform was extremely unreliable. We had no HRM in place Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
