Employee Leave Management Software

While my overall experience with Rippling has been positive, I believe there are a few areas where the platform could be improved. One potential improvement is providing more detailed, step-by-step guidance during employee onboarding, particularly for first-time users who may be unfamiliar with certain verification requirements or document submission procedures.

For example, clearer instructions regarding acceptable identification documents, verification standards, and alternative options when a submission is rejected would help minimize confusion and reduce the need to contact support.

Additionally, more informative real-time status updates and clearer explanations of pending requirements would make the onboarding process more transparent and efficient, especially for remote employees.

Overall, these are relatively minor areas for improvement. Enhancing the verification process, providing more proactive guidance, and simplifying certain onboarding steps would make an already convenient platform even more user-friendly and reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Rippling helps solve the challenges of managing employee onboarding, payroll information, and HR-related administrative tasks by bringing everything together into one centralized platform. As a remote employee, this is particularly beneficial because it reduces the need for lengthy email exchanges, manual paperwork, and constant follow-ups with HR.

One of the biggest advantages I've experienced is the ability to complete onboarding requirements, submit necessary documents, and manage personal employment information through a single system. This makes the onboarding process more organized, convenient, and easier to track.

Rippling also helps improve communication and transparency by providing a structured way to manage employee requirements and access important information. Instead of relying on multiple platforms or contacting different departments, I can handle many administrative tasks independently.

Overall, Rippling saves time, reduces unnecessary administrative work, and makes the transition into a new role more efficient. For someone working remotely, having a reliable and accessible HR platform is especially valuable because it allows me to focus more on my responsibilities while keeping employment-related processes organized.

I just wish there were more AI features for users to take advantage of. Aside from that, there really isn’t anything I dislike about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For me as an employee, before using Gusto I had to keep track of my own hours in a note on my computer. Gusto has taken away a lot of the stress to keep track of that. When we first switched to using Gusto, it was extremely easy to acclimate and we have never looked back. It has been a great investment for our firm. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While BambooHR does a good job of simplifying HR operations, I think there is an opportunity to make the platform more adaptable to the way different organisations actually work. Not every company has the same approval structures, employee policies, or internal processes, and some workflows can feel restrictive when an organisation needs something beyond the standard setup. I'd also like to see deeper customisation of reports and dashboards, so teams can extract more meaningful insights without relying on workarounds or external tools.

Another area worth improving is the overall integration experience. HR data often needs to move between payroll, finance, recruitment, project management, and communication platforms, and making those connections more seamless would reduce unnecessary manual effort. I would also appreciate more proactive, intelligent insights that help HR teams identify patterns in employee engagement, retention, and workforce development rather than simply presenting historical information.

These aren't fundamental weaknesses, but opportunities to take an already useful platform further. My ideal version of BambooHR would combine its existing simplicity with greater flexibility, stronger integrations, and more forward-looking intelligence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One problem BambooHR addresses—one that I think is especially important—is the disconnect between managing employees and genuinely supporting them throughout their journey in an organisation. In many workplaces, even relatively simple tasks like checking leave balances, completing onboarding formalities, accessing employee records, or getting an approval can require unnecessary back-and-forth and navigating scattered systems. BambooHR brings these processes into a more organised environment, which reduces administrative friction and makes information easier to find and use.

What I find particularly valuable is the transparency it creates. Employees gain clearer visibility into their own information, managers can handle their responsibilities more efficiently, and HR teams can spend less time coordinating routine requests and more time focusing on people-related decisions. It also helps establish consistency, so important processes don’t depend entirely on who someone needs to contact or how familiar they are with internal procedures.

The bigger benefit, in my opinion, is the time and mental effort it saves across an organisation. Good HR software should work quietly in the background, removing unnecessary complexity without making the workplace feel impersonal. BambooHR moves toward that goal by making everyday employee management more structured, accessible, and less reliant on manual follow-ups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the terms used on the platform can be confusing, especially when I’m building out positions and the organizational structure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a new small business, I was managing a wide range of tasks manually using raw documents like Word and Excel. Paycom has provided a robust, all-in-one platform for payroll, taxes, recruiting, onboarding, organizational structure, and several other key areas as my company grows. Before Paycom, pulling the reports I needed took hours; now it takes minutes. From requisition creation to having a fully onboarded staff member, the process is smooth and seamless, whereas it used to feel fragmented and disjointed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, I find EH Workforce easy to use, but there are a few areas that could be improved. Sometimes the system can be a little slow or take time to load. It would also be helpful to have more frequent updates and improvements to make the platform even smoother. Other than that, I don't have any major dislikes, as the system is generally user-friendly and convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Employment Hero makes managing work-related tasks much easier by bringing everything into one convenient platform. It helps simplify timesheets, leave requests, payslips, employee information, and communication. I like that I can easily access important information, track my work details, and manage tasks without having to go through multiple systems. It saves time, reduces confusion, and makes everyday work administration more organised and convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about the Trinet PEO system is that the interface feels a bit outdated. Also, when I navigate from Trinet to a separate website, the transition can be pretty slow, which gets frustrating at times. Overall, the integration between Trinet and the other service providers’ websites could definitely be refined to make the experience smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

TriNet gives me a single place to review my health insurance options, compare costs, and enroll my wife in coverage.

One area I think Remote EOR could improve is the flexibility and speed of certain administrative processes. Some requests or updates may take longer than expected, and having more transparency and timely communication regarding their progress would be helpful. Overall, my experience has been positive, but improving response times and simplifying certain processes would make the service even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Remote solves the challenges of international employment by simplifying payroll, benefits, taxes, and compliance for remote employees. It provides a secure and reliable way to work for a global company without worrying about complicated employment processes. Personally, it gives me peace of mind knowing that my salary, benefits, and employment documentation are handled properly, allowing me to focus on my work and professional growth.

Netchex helps solve the challenges of managing payroll, tracking employee information, and keeping everything organized in one place. It reduces the need for manual work, saves time, and helps minimize errors. Having a centralized system makes it easier to access important information, process payroll efficiently, and stay on top of employee-related tasks. This allows me to work more efficiently and spend less time on administrative responsibilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Sales team response time needs to be tracked internally in order to improve client experience

2. During the implementation phase- A weekly or daily report can be introduced which would make it easier to track progress Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our team had a different Onboarding tool earlier and also other trackers to track the progress of the tasks, however, with HROne it becomes easy as It has all the features that are required to set up Shared Services in an organization.

Although the fees are competitive, I think they could be lower, especially for those of us who receive payments frequently. At the end of the month, withdrawal and currency conversion charges add up to [10 to 20 USD/a significant percentage] of my income. I would like to see lower rates or a discount for users with higher transaction volumes.

I would also like to have at least one free withdrawal per month to banks in Colombia. Today I pay a fee every time I transfer money to my local account, which forces me to accumulate balance and withdraw less frequently to avoid losing money, when I would prefer to withdraw as needed. Other platforms like [Wise/Payoneer, if applicable] offer similar options, so it would be a good differentiator.

Lastly, the profitability of dollar savings accounts could be higher. It's a feature I'm very interested in to grow my money, but with the current rate, it's not as attractive compared to other investment alternatives. A more competitive rate, or plans with better returns in exchange for leaving the money longer, would make me leave more balance in Deel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Before using Deel, receiving payments from foreign clients was more complicated. International transfers had high fees, unfavorable exchange rates, and took several days to arrive. Additionally, I had to manage invoices and receipts on my own, which took time each month.

With Deel, my money is available as soon as it arrives, and I can distribute it as I wish: part to my account in Colombia for my expenses, another to an account abroad, or leave it in dollars generating returns. This gives me much more control and flexibility over my finances.

I also use the virtual card to pay directly with my balance, inside and outside Colombia, without having to withdraw or convert first. And since the invoices are organized on the platform, I now prepare my accounts and taxes much faster than before.

As I work remotely, the rewards for digital nomads are an extra benefit I didn't expect and that I take advantage of in my daily life.

In summary, Deel saves me time and money each month, and gives me the peace of mind knowing my income is secure and available when I need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As Architecture‑Firm Client & Project‑Delivery Operations Manager at Terraform Design Workshop, Homebase's scheduling and time‑clock tools save me time coordinating our hybrid studio and field staff, but its shift‑based design, shallow project costing features, and weak integrations create friction for our sustainable architecture workflows. Our team does not run a traditional hourly‑service model; designers move between schematic design, construction documents, and permitting milestones that span weeks, and freelance structural and MEP consultants bill against project phases rather than clocking in for scheduled blocks. Homebase is built around the assumption that work happens in discrete shifts, which clashes with how our studio actually operates.

The biggest pain point is the lack of task‑level time tracking. We currently log hours against project tags, but I cannot split a designer's day across multiple deliverables, such as drafting a wall section for one residential job, reviewing consultant redlines for a commercial project, and preparing a presentation set for a client meeting. Every clock‑in locks the team member into a single project tag for the whole block, so we either create overlapping shift entries or accept imprecise time data. During our adaptive reuse commercial project last quarter, one of our designers spent the morning on permit corrections and the afternoon on a client deliverable, but the timesheet recorded everything under a single tag, which forced me to manually split the hours in our costing tracker. This adds repetitive data cleanup and weakens the project profitability reports leadership relies on for each sustainable build.

Homebase also has no native integration with the tools we actually design in, such as CAD platforms, our CRM, or our document control system. We cannot pull scheduled shift data into our project timeline, and we cannot sync time entries back into our project costing software. Since our lean team has no dedicated in‑house IT, building custom API bridges is out of reach, so I spend part of every Friday exporting timesheet CSVs, reformatting them, and importing them into our tracker. The reporting module itself is limited: it surfaces hours per employee and per tag, but it cannot show billable hours by project phase, consultant cost against fee budget, or utilization across our studio team. For a firm that prices fixed‑fee design work, this level of cost visibility matters far more than the labor‑cost reports Homebase emphasizes.

A separate frustration is that Homebase's shift schedule view does not adapt to milestone‑driven work. We operate on submission deadlines: a planning board submittal, a construction document package, or a client design review. Homebase shows staff availability and shifts well, but it does not let me layer project milestones, document deliverables, or consultant review windows onto the same calendar. I find myself keeping a second project schedule in a separate tracker, which reintroduces the split‑brain problem we adopted Homebase to remove. When a site visit gets rescheduled, I have to update both the shift calendar and the project tracker manually, and occasionally a designer is scheduled for a meeting that conflicts with a permit deadline I only track in the other tool.

The mobile experience also lags for our field staff. Designers visiting construction sites for verification surveys need offline access to their schedules and time logs, but Homebase's mobile app depends on a stable connection, and our consultants in rural building sites frequently lose signal. A structural engineer on a hillside passive‑house project could not clock in on site one morning and had to log hours later from the car, mislabeling the time against the wrong phase.

I would like to see Homebase add project‑phase time categories, milestone layering on the calendar, and a more flexible reporting engine that lets firms like ours export utilization and fee‑against‑budget views. Deeper integration with design and project management tools would also remove my weekly manual reconciliation. Homebase is a strong scheduler, but until it understands project‑based professional work, it will remain a partial fit for a deadline‑driven architecture studio like ours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As Architecture‑Firm Client & Project‑Delivery Operations Manager at Terraform Design Workshop, our core pain before adopting Homebase was chaotic staff scheduling and unreliable time entry tracking across our hybrid team of in‑studio designers, field site assessors, and on‑demand freelance engineering consultants. We struggled with scattered schedule updates shared over email threads and text messages, inconsistent time logging, and a lack of centralized visibility into who was working, where they were working, and which project their hours belonged to. Before Homebase, I spent six to seven hours every week chasing incomplete timesheets, resolving double-bookings for site visits, and sorting mislabeled hours in spreadsheets. Designers and consultants often forgot to submit their hours until days after the work wrapped up, which delayed our project costing reviews and client invoicing cycles. We also had no simple way to spot upcoming PTO conflicts that could threaten critical permit and construction document submission deadlines.

We struggled with disjointed manual scheduling, but now we can build, adjust, and share our master staff schedule in Homebase’s drag-and-drop scheduler, which has cut my weekly scheduling and timesheet administration workload down to roughly two hours. The platform lets me tag every shift and clock entry to a specific residential or sustainable commercial project, so team members select the correct job when they punch in. During our passive solar cabin project earlier this quarter, our freelance structural engineer accidentally logged hours to a different client account, and the tagged entry system flagged the mismatch quickly. I caught the error within 24 hours instead of discovering it weeks later during invoicing, which prevented us from sending an inaccurate bill to that client. The geofenced clock-in feature for our studio office also reduces accidental or retroactive time entries, making our labor data far more consistent for internal costing.

We struggled with unplanned leave creating last-minute staffing emergencies ahead of hard project deadlines, but now we can view all approved PTO requests overlaid directly on the shared schedule, which has eliminated nearly all last-minute coverage scrambles. When our senior drafter submitted a vacation request overlapping with a commercial adaptive reuse permit deadline, I spotted the conflict immediately and locked in a freelance MEP consultant two weeks in advance to cover the drawing review workload. This prevented a costly delay to our planning submission and saved us the stress of rushing to source qualified support at the last minute. Our client delivery timeline stayed on track without extra overtime for the rest of the design team.

We struggled with slow, fragmented communication around schedule changes and shift reminders, but now we can trigger automated SMS and email alerts for upcoming shifts, rescheduled site walks, and pending timesheet approvals, which has reduced our incomplete time entry rate by more than half. Team members get automatic nudges to clock out and submit their notes at the end of the day, so we no longer wait until month-end to collect most of our billable hours. I export validated timesheet data as a CSV file each week and feed it into our project costing tracker, giving leadership steady visibility into whether we are burning hours within our fixed project fee budgets.

One secondary benefit we did not anticipate was that the simple team message board built into Homebase reduces noise in our main design communication channels. Quick operational updates like office closure notices or changed site inspection times live inside Homebase instead of mixing with CAD comments and client feedback threads. That keeps our design-focused Slack space cleaner and helps our creative team stay focused on drawing work.

Homebase is still built primarily for hourly service teams and lacks native CAD or CRM integrations, plus it cannot track granular design-phase task progress. Even so, for our lean 11–50 person studio with no dedicated in-house IT, it solved our biggest operational gaps around scheduling visibility and trustworthy time collection. The hours I recover each week go back to coordinating consultants, organizing blueprint deliverables, and safeguarding our strict planning and construction document submission deadlines.

Before we started using Leapsome, everything felt scattered. Reviews were in one place, goals somewhere else, and we barely had any engagement data to work with. Now, everything is together in one platform, and that alone has made a huge difference for our team.

Managers come into performance conversations prepared, and employees have a clear understanding of what’s expected of them. Instead of only realizing someone is disengaged when they decide to leave, we’re able to spot those signs early and take action.

The AI writing assistant has quietly become a favorite. It helps managers give feedback that’s actually meaningful, rather than just generic comments to get through the review cycle.

We’re not perfect, but Leapsome has helped us be much more intentional about how we support and develop our people. We’re seeing the impact in our retention numbers and in the way managers talk about leading their teams. It really feels like we finally have the right foundation in place.

ADP Workforce Now reliably handles our core payroll, but the overall user experience has been frustrating. The interface feels dated and clunky, and basic navigation ends up being far more complicated than it needs to be. Our biggest challenge has been customer service: when we try to resolve a system issue, it often involves a long wait and getting transferred multiple times before we reach the right person. It ultimately gets the job done, but it lacks the modern, intuitive feel I’ve come to expect from newer HR platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ADP Workforce Now solves the massive headache of managing compliance and payroll tracking across different regions. It acts as a single source of truth for all employee data, which has made auditing and labor cost reporting much easier. Having automated tax filings and regulatory tracking gives us great peace of mind. It has significantly streamlined our administrative workload, allowing us to focus more on employee development rather than endless paperwork." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike about Deputy is that, while it is excellent for rostering and attendance management, it does not provide insight into resident acuity or whether the rostered staffing levels are appropriate for the care needs of residents. It can show who is working and when, but managers must still rely on clinical judgement and other systems to ensure the correct skill mix and staffing levels are in place. Reporting and workforce planning capabilities could also be more tailored to the specific requirements of residential aged care services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Deputy solves the challenge of managing staff rosters, attendance, and shift changes in one central system. It provides real-time visibility of who is rostered and who has actually commenced their shift, making it easier to monitor staffing coverage, identify attendance issues, and ensure payroll accuracy. For me, this improves workforce oversight, reduces administrative time, and helps maintain appropriate staffing levels to support safe and effective resident care.

We don't have any specific dislikes, but there are a few enhancements we would love to see:

1. Consolidation of Benefits: It would be fantastic if Kota could increase the range of benefits offered. It would be great if we could offer some additional benefits without having to find a different provider, such as cash plan medical, cycle to work, staff discounts, etc.

2. Global Office Management: We have offices in several countries, including Canada, the US, Malaysia, Australia, Mexico, and the UAE. It would be great if we could manage these international offices through Kota as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We've integrated the Kota platform with our HR system, making enrolment a breeze. Now, we can easily see who is and isn't enrolled in one place.

Monthly invoicing helps manage our cash flow, and we can download member lists and invoices directly from the portal.

We're currently setting up our benefits on the Kota app and are excited to launch this to our staff. This will be our first opportunity to showcase our benefits in a comprehensive way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area that could be improved is system consistency, particularly with integrations and data flow between modules or third-party platforms. We have had a few situations where information did not transfer as expected, which required additional follow-up and troubleshooting. The team is always responsive in resolving these issues, but having more proactive system alerts and stronger integration monitoring would make the overall experience even better.

BiznusSoft HR is helping us centralize several HR and payroll processes in one place, including payroll, employee data, time and attendance, onboarding, reporting, and compliance-related workflows. This reduces the amount of manual coordination between different systems and teams. The biggest benefit for us is having more visibility and control over our HR and payroll processes while being able to rely on the BiznusSoft team for support when issues come up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the platform can feel a bit slow, especially when loading certain sections or updating information.

Before Worknice, employee information and paperwork were spread across emails, folders and spreadsheets. It was difficult to see what was missing, what had expired and what required action.

Worknice has brought everything together and automated much of the follow-up. Onboarding is faster, employee information is more accurate, and we have much better visibility over compliance. It has reduced administration for HR while giving employees a much simpler experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
