What do you dislike most about this product?

Lack of pricing transparency- The pricing of the two core packages is not provided on the company website. This makes it difficult for prospective purchasers to compare the price against other products. Cloud-only BambooHR is a cloud solution and does not support self-hosted data. BambooHR customer data is hosted in the United States, Canada, or Ireland, depending on where customers are based. This inevitably means giving up some degree of control of the data and creates potential vulnerabilities for the data. Lack of customization in the ‘Essentials’ package.Users are limited to a standard set of reports in the ‘Essentials’ package.
