Top Rated Kombo Alternatives

As the leading European access and SaaS management solution, finding an HRIS API that prioritized GDPR compliance was essential. Kombo delivers this with ease. Its single, unified HR model simplifies complex integrations, allowing us to offer automated onboarding & offboarding processes across many different systems, which is incredibly valuable for our customers.
The responsive support team (available via Slack) has been very helpful. Also they worked closely with us to build an Okta integration so that it can act as an HRIS. Additionally, the detailed request logs allow for comprehensive tracking in case something goes wrong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Their integrations work great. Only a few special cases where differences between HRIS mappings became a problem. With their great support, we could resolve these issues quickly though.
Furhtermore we would like to get more support to be integrated into HRIS marketplaces. Whenever Kombo decides to expand, other interesting categories to offer a unified API could be ticketing systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kombo has been extremely valuable in helping us rapidly deploy numerous client integrations, saving us significant internal development work and eliminating the need for error-prone Excel file handling. The support team is highly responsive, and we encounter very few issues overall, which demonstrates their strong attention to detail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There's very little to dislike about Kombo. The only potential improvements we can suggest would be expanding their HRIS coverage and possibly including integrations with performance management systems. We'd love to see these additions in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Kombo has enabled us to integrate with the majority of HRIS, ATS and Payroll systems on the market with just one implementation. Our implementation was up and running in just a few days, thanks to the great documentation and OpenAPI schema.
Whenever our customers have additional attributes that are not covered by the unified API, Kombo makes it easy to extend their data model with their "custom fields" feature.
Customer support is always responsive when we encounter issues or have questions, and always give reliable estimates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As the unified API does not cover all the details we require from ATS, we still have some minor implementation efforts for integrating new systems. However, Kombo easily enables this by offering the raw remote data as well as passthrough requests to the source system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At Linestep.com, we needed a seamless way to integrate our clients' ATS systems with our own. After evaluating several providers, we chose Kombo, and it's been a decision we've never regretted.
One of the standout aspects of integrating Kombo was the exceptional collaboration with their team during the implementation process. The support we received was outstanding from the initial contact through the entire implementation journey. They went above and beyond, helping us effectively communicate the value of Kombo's unified API and integrations to our clients. This level of partnership and assistance is truly unique in my experience working with third-party providers in the ATS integration space.
Another aspect I really appreciate is Kombo's extensive integration capabilities with a wide range of ATS systems. They're very proactive in offering assistance if we need any special customizations, for instance, if a client has specific requirements. So I believe you can count on Kombo to ensure proper integration as long as the ATS provider supplies the necessary API.
All in all we can recommend combo very much and are happy that we partnered with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While Kombo's unified API approach is the best in the business, it's important to note that certain limitations exist. These constraints primarily stem from the APIs exposed to Kombo / thrid party providers, which can sometimes be quite restrictive. As a result, some functionalities may not be possible despite the unified API strategy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At Alva Labs, seamless integration with ATS platforms is essential to our operations, and Kombo.dev has been a key enabler of our success. With over 60 pre-built ATS integrations, Kombo has provided significant value in three key areas.
First, it has allowed us to develop deep integrations with complex HR systems like SAP, Workday, and Oracle—systems that would have required substantial time and resources to integrate independently.
Second, it has expedited the onboarding process for customers using a wide range of ATS platforms, enabling us to meet diverse client needs more efficiently.
Third, the expertise and support from the Kombo team have been instrumental in optimizing the workflows and automations of the integrations we build. This has increased operational efficiency, improved the customer experience, and driven higher satisfaction across the board.
Kombo has been a critical partner in scaling our operations effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing specific comes to my mind. Being a great journey so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Kombo is their deep focus on our use case—ATS integrations—and the high level of expertise they bring to each system. They are clear subject matter experts in ATS data models and the nuances involved in each ATS’s API. Before signing on, we evaluated nearly every Unified API provider and even considered building integrations ourselves, but Kombo clearly emerged as the best option.
We now rely on Kombo for all of our ATS integrations for any client willing to connect their ATS.
Their team goes above and beyond, providing extensive support throughout implementation, new employer/connection setups, and resolving integration issues as they arise. They genuinely listen, are responsive, and are very easy to work with. Their customer support is consistently a 10/10.
Additionally, they’ve been very open to expanding their coverage, readily adding new ATS and features to enhance current integration capabilities.
Moreover, Kombo’s dashboard makes managing integrations and adding new ones simple and intuitive. It’s user-friendly enough that even our non-technical team members can use it confidently to onboard clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There’s nothing to dislike about Kombo itself. However, the ATS market has its challenges, particularly with older ATS systems that many of our clients use, which can be tough to integrate. While Kombo has been fantastic at tackling these issues, I only wish they’d been around longer to have even more solutions in place for legacy systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As a heavy user of Kombo.dev, I can confidently say that it has been an absolute game-changer for our engineering team. The unified API they offer is seamless, reliable, and incredibly efficient, allowing us to integrate multiple HRIS, ATS, and Payroll systems (big shoutout for cracking the DATEV integration) without the usual headaches of dealing with various APIs. The time and effort saved by using Kombo is unmatched.
One of the standout features for me is the ease of use and developer-friendly documentation. Setting up integrations is smooth, and their robust API has greatly simplified what used to be complex processes.
The support team deserves a special mention as well. They are responsive, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile to resolve any issues or answer questions. Their proactive approach ensures that any hiccups are short-lived, and they often anticipate needs before they even arise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It would be great to see more integration categories in the future like CRM or accounting systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their platform has saved us a tremendous amount of time by simplifying integrations of HR systems into one easy-to-use API. What really stands out is how quickly they’re improving the platform—new features are regularly added, and every update has been incredibly helpful.
Their customer support is fantastic, especially through Slack. Whenever we have questions or run into issues, they respond quickly and always have the right solution. It's clear that Kombo values feedback; we've seen them respond to our input and deliver updates that meet our needs.
Reliability has been rock-solid, and the only minor challenge is that not all HR systems provide the same data, but this can be handled with custom fields, making it a non-issue.
Overall, Kombo.dev is a fantastic solution if you're looking to simplify and streamline your HR integrations! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing significant. But it would be desireable if the sync duration was more predictable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kombo’s unified API is a delight to work with. We integrated it once and instantly gained access to hundred of HRIS & ATS systems. The deep out-of-the-box integration saved our team months of development work and reduced our need to understand each different system. The centralized dashboard provides real-time status updates, and the webhooks and custom field features allow us to quickly adapt to our customers' needs. Customer Support is truly stellar, and where the Kombo team shines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While API documentation is great and precise, I sometimes feel it could be more specific given the actual implementation choice for each underlying system. I guess this concern may apply to all unified API products though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We went through a very thorough procurement process - speaking to all major providers in the space. Kombo came out on top and we decided to migrate from another provider we had been using previously.
Kombo's integrations power a key part of our product - we needed enterprise ready functionality and breadth across US + Europe, with fast support for any new needs that arise, all of which we have recieved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Honestly nothing - when we have had new needs arise such as a new integration, or additional functionality (eg customisation) Kombo have rapidly delivered what we asked for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their platform integrates deeply with all major HR and ATS tools used by EU companies, which was crucial for us as a European compliance automation leader (SOC 2, ISO 27001). Backend implementation took about two weeks, and using their common model was enough. They’re constantly expanding support for more European systems, making them an ideal fit. The single API, common data model, and customizable integrations make setup and scaling seamless. Key features like detailed logs, tool scoping, and multi-language support address major challenges in the European market. Plus, their support is top-notch—fast, responsive on Slack, and always proactive.
From my experience, I’d recommend designing the backend properly and fully leveraging the common model—don’t rush into custom integrations (remote API data) too soon. Last year, we did a quick, hacky implementation with a similar tool, and going too deep too fast made expanding to other tools challenging. Remember, every API has its limits. Kombo’s coverage matrix saved us time and hassle by identifying these risks early! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The team is highly focused on HR APIs, and they work great. I haven’t encountered any issues so far. However, it would be nice if they offered integration with ticketing systems like Jira in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
