What differentiates BambooHR from other similar products?
BambooHR is very intuitive, regularly develops new features to stay up to date.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The ATS makes me gain a lot of time, is very user friendly, and enables you to automate many tasks.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Sometimes the features are updated without any notice.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you consider it for the ATS system, it is very effective. I feel like it differentiates a little less for the other HR management aspects (benefits, performance...)

Reliable HRIS with quick report generation
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates BambooHR from other similar products?
We can monitor the progress of each division and the chances available to aid with staff retention thanks to the time tracking on projects and the many reports. The employee's and my personal details are easily accessible, making the onboarding process quick and painless. Benefits monitoring is a nice extra, too.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I think the performance evaluation system is fantastic. My company's previous system was cumbersome and time-consuming in comparison to this one. In addition to being straightforward and uncomplicated, it's also quite user-friendly.
What do you dislike most about this product?
They have a poor payroll system. Complexity of any kind renders it useless. Their sales staff guaranteed success. They provide zero assistance to their customers. We've wasted three months creating a solution that's no better than the industry standard for payroll and time tracking.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Nothing gets scattered about. In the past, information was scattered over multiple locations and mediums, making it difficult to retrieve when needed. Everything I might need is in one convenient location now.
Pros
- Enables Productivity
- Efficient Service
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
