What do you like best about HiBob HRIS?

I like the look and feel of the platform, it gets good feedback from our employees. I also like that Bob invests a lot in development so there are always new features and improvements coming out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HiBob HRIS?

The time off functionality is good but not great for staff that work on varying shifts. There are workarounds but it gets a little bit complex at times.

Better e-sign functionality would be good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HiBob HRIS solving and how is that benefiting you?

It was the first HR system for our business so the basics of getting data/docs all in one place was a key driver. Holidays used to be forms and spreadsheet so having this all in the system is fab and no more needing to do manual calculations for part time staff. It is also now our main tool for employee comms using the main homepage for shout-outs. We are also using the ATS, this has saved a lot of time to streamline our processes and ensuring that candidates receive a good experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HiBob HRIS?

Bringing HRIS out of the dark ages. Its simple and modern feel makes the system feel instantly familiar. No anxiety as a new user. It just - works. My first project was to manage the intergration of the timeoff function in bob. This meant end to end project management. Getting a business full of employees with Change Fatigue and getting bob to work with and talk to existing systems. I didnt require training in how bob works, I jumped on had a one hour play around in Sandbox and i felt I knew enough about the system to then manage my project. I dont have an IT backgroup, if fact Technology and I are just not friends, I come from the generation where i got to live half my life wth Covid and half without.

What do you dislike about HiBob HRIS?

Some workflows are not customisable - I was very surprised that there wasn't an option to hide accrued personal leave. With that said the Bob team are always willing to help and make changes where possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HiBob HRIS?

I really like the "social media flow" where you have a great platform for posting news and celebrate successes with the team.

I liked the support that I got from Harry Isitt, who was my contact at HiBob. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HiBob HRIS?

For my organisation, it is important that it is easy to be compliant, for example when it comes to GDPR, and I sometimes feel that it is not so easy in HiBob to make sure that we are doing it right.

Also, in Sweden, every employee has a personal identification number that is crucial for all queries from the government, but even if the personal identification number can be written in HiBob, you can´t sort data based on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about HiBob HRIS?

What I like most about HiBob is the ability to customise taskflows according to the team's needs, very customisable.

As someone who handled the integration with our engagement platform, I would say that the Customer Support team and our account manager, Harry were very helpful providing the appropriate training/links with particular instructions of getting it done myself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HiBob HRIS?

I wouldn't say there is something I dislike, sometimes the training is taking long and it would be helpful to have something implemented for us, however when I learned what I needed I was inspired to make use of the feature for many different tasks and needs. So still valuable time in the end of the day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HiBob HRIS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Automation processes that are very customisable, are making it easier for the team to handle processes like onboarding and offboarding. Reminders, emails, policies that need signing all in one place. For example, automated processes around onboarding, offboarding, reminders of employees' birthdays or work anniversaries, have been very valuable to all HR team members as well as line managers.

I run reports very one, with at least one scheduled one that monitors new starters' details to ensure it's with payroll monthly and timely.

Kudos are also a big part of why we use HiBob with work anniversaries, promotions, and special recognitions being celebrated in the main Home page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HiBob HRIS?

I found Hibob relatively easy to implement at the start and the support we received from the team helped me get buy in from different parts of the business so it was fairly well adopted. It is good having one system as our one source of truth and with various functionality to support our small HR team on a daily basis. Employees can update information easily and we can also share announcements and resources and documents with ease.

I also like the Heartcore community as this is a vital resource to help me learn and utilise the system more over time, particularly understand how similar organisations may find solutions or workarounds where the system doesn't quite do what we need it to.

I think as a HRIS bob is a good option for SME's who need need a single platform and want to be able to build on this as they grow and their need for functionality increases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HiBob HRIS?

Where added functionality is accessed via a module at additional cost, this then needs to be fit for purpose. However, it appears the quality of additional functions is missing much that other providers can offer. For example, we have raised the need for pulse surveys via the survey functionality only to be repeatedly told that this feedback will be given to the product team. If this functionality is to be charged at an additional cost, it needs to be providing the equivalent to the market for that type of tool not a lesser service but at the premium of being bundled.

Another example is the introduction of the sandbox module which is great for enabling super users and admin to try out functionality in a contained environment before rolling things live. As bob is essentially run by in house teams and only basic support is offered to implement new features, create reports, etc, this should absolutely come as standard. Part of what may hold a company back from using the platform to it's fullest is the ability to properly learn what it can do and trial new features.

I accept that it may not be possible to provide expert tools in all areas where so much is possible under one platform but the fees should reflect this to enable people to make decisions based on the quality of the product and it's effectiveness for the business, and not be bound by the affordability of the bundle.

The product team does seem to roll out updates frequently so there is always hope our feedback will get addressed, however, it is frustrating to have to pay market price for functionality that is not equivalent or should be included as standard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HiBob HRIS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Hibob was our solution to having an effective HRIS to be a single source of truth regarding all employee data. It has gone on to then help us analyse our data and have more insight into our employee demographics, feedback and create more autonomy for our employees and managers via self service. This helps our small HR team have more capacity to focus on strategic issues and supporting managers with complex ER. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HiBob HRIS?

We use Bob in a worldwide organisation with different countries, different regulations. The flexibility of the system is very useful. We can switch on and off fields what are needed in some countries, but doesn't in others. We can even add and customize fields. The reporting (analytics) is genial as well. I can always prepare custom reports and doesn't need to run 3 report and manually merge them to get the data what is needed.

Ease of use, customer support is very fast and always reachable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HiBob HRIS?

I wouldn't say anything i dislike at all. However it would be great, if we should pay for a feature only for the population we would like to switch it on and not for our whole company. Japanese language is still missing :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HiBob HRIS solving and how is that benefiting you?

The onboarding is much more easier, lots of automatization possibilities. It wasn't in the dropdown, but the payroll preparation and reporting is the purpose as well as i'm dealing with more countries with different payroll providers and from bob i can download some data in the same format what i wouldn't be able with the different payroll providers as they use different systems.

What do you like best about HiBob HRIS?

There is no 'the system is just like this' with Bob. Its easy to use because menus are logical and the buttons are in the right places. Reports and workflows can be customized, streamlined, and/or automated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HiBob HRIS?

Like everything, Bob has its limits, but dislikes are few and far outweighed by the likes.

1. Bulk load feature does not have a 'rescind' bulk transactions option. I had to manually rescind a bulk data upload, which was not ideal.

2. The new comp letter module does not allow for letters to be sent out without assigning a signature element. It would be great if pre-signed letters could be sent out without additional workflows, but this feature is new, so that's understandable.

That's really all I have, it's an overwhelmingly positive experience overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HiBob HRIS solving and how is that benefiting you?

HR process automation. I am currently setting up Tasks & Flows for onboarding, offboarding, promotions, internal mobility, and personal information updates.

The compensation module is perfect regular merit cycle implementation.

HR Analytics is eventually going to result in useful leadership dashboards.

PM function simplifies annual review process & flows straight into comp.

Everything just... works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HiBob HRIS?

From implementation to go live the the onboarding experience was great. We felt supported at every step and whilst there wasn't a solution for every little quirk we have as a business we are pleased to see one of our suggestions get implemented already!

The customer support team are exceptional - responses are lightning-quick and super personal. The truly deliver 5* customer service every day.

We love the Heartcore platform which allows us to interact with fellow Bobbers to discuss tips, tricks and best practice to get the most out of the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HiBob HRIS?

We are so sad to see the colour face icons go from the survey tool. The world is in full colour, come on Bob, ditch the black and white and go back to colour! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HiBob HRIS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bob is helping us to bring performance management, employee engagement and onboarding together into one system. As a result, it's helping to drive engagement and save serious amounts of time and duplication of efforts.

The survey tool and insights is great - reporting could be a little better from a filtering functionality POV Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HiBob HRIS?

Bob is the most flexible HRIS I have had a pleasure to work with. It is easily customizable to company's individual processes, even those not initially designed to be carried out in the system. It also has a very intuitive UX, so most employees don't need much guidance on how to find their data and needed features. I also appreciate fast customer support and success manager who we're in contact with to help us with the user cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HiBob HRIS?

It is not fully adapted to the Polish labour law requirements, e.g. in the Time Off module and I guess it still doesn't have enough Polish customers to implement needed changes fast. Though it is to be expected from the international system that services a multitude of markets, all with different legislation. We lack some small changes that would make our processes easier and we're still waiting yo hear if and when they are going to be put on a roadmap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about HiBob HRIS?

HiBob has great ease of use, user-friendly, customizable all-in-one platform. I particularly love that on every page, you can click on the Help icon at the bottom left corner and it will direct you on how to best utilize this page. They also have a great community support on how to navigate a number of features. I also love that you can automate a lot of workflows on very manual, administrative tasks when it comes to employment changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HiBob HRIS?

As a people leader, I think there's an opportunity to enhance the 1:1 recurring meetings that are very critical to the foundations of performance management with the team. For example, I wish there was an opportunity for my team members to be reminded to complete their 1:1 forms ahead of their 1:1 recurring meetings with me. Even within that form, the UX/UI can be further developed to allow additional spacing and formatting to write more since the boxes are small. No product is perfect but this would greatly enhance a deeper, productive dialogue with the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HiBob HRIS solving and how is that benefiting you?

The most significant problem that HiBob has solved for us is conducting performance management in the most customizable way for our team and business goals. HiBob has also elevated our efficiency in the employee lifecycle through automated workflows across onboarding, employee change letters and offboarding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
