"BambooHR's user-friendly interface"
What do you like best about BambooHR?

I appreciate BambooHR's user-friendly interface, which makes it easy to navigate and manage HR tasks efficiently. The customizable reporting tools and automated workflows have also streamlined our HR processes, saving time and reducing manual errors.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

While BambooHR offers many useful features, one aspect that could be improved is the response time for customer support. There have been instances where I needed assistance, and the wait times were longer than expected. Enhancing the support system could further enhance the overall user experience.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

BambooHR simplifies HR tasks by centralizing employee information, automating processes, and providing self-service options. It enhances efficiency, reduces administrative workload, and ensures better compliance, ultimately improving overall HR management.

"Simple and Clear"
What do you like best about BambooHR?

I love how BambooHR takes complex data nad organizes it in a beautiful and clear way with easy to use/create reports, employee data and how intuitive the platform is.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

Once you hit 1,500 employees or more, you need more robust features in regards to capturing data in time and it'd be nice to edit standard reports. It could also be better as a global platform

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bamboo stores all our employee data, we run reports with it for headcount, d&i information, salary history, job information, everything.

"Hightly Custimizable and always inproving"
What do you like best about BambooHR?

My favorite thing about BambooHR is the ability to add custom sections to track data. As the HRIS person for our company I am in BambooHR all day every day. The ability to add custom tables and run reports on that data makes my life so much easier. Also -BambooHR is constantly sending updates and making improvements on their services. Their customer support is top notch and will help with anything large or small.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

Not much. There are some times when we get inconsistent information from the support team but with a little work we always manage to figure it out.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

BambooHR is our core HRIS as well as our ATS and Payroll. We currently do not use the performance management or benefits administration but we plan on doing that in the next 12 months.

"People friendly HRIS"
What do you like best about BambooHR?

- mobile application: there is no need to go to your computer if you're really sick and need a day off - reports: in BambooHR, you can easily find all the necessary data and customize the report if needed - user-friendly and understandable interface: no additional training for employees is needed - truly fast and helpful support department

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

Not everything is customizable, so if you need some specific features - consider it first. For us, it was not critical, compared with other essential features.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

When you are scaling and growing as a company - you need one place, where to store all the info about people. History of their compensation, roles, and performance. If you're responsible enough to fill in all the data and surveys - you can benefit a lot from analyzing it through time, understand how it changes, and what the reasons are. This is a basis necessity fir building better organization and to hear your people.

"BambooHR - Major Success"
What do you like best about BambooHR?

All our Personnel Files are in one place. We had an audit with findings regarding record storage. Now with BambooHR we are at 100% compliance.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

Employee resistance to change. BambooHR has features we are not maximizing. The learning curve is low but the staff resistance factor can be a barrier to implementation.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Onboarding has become standardized along with the recruiting process. With BambooHR we recruited an Executive Leader from Baltimore to Houston. We would never have reached this person using conventional job posting techniques.

Bamboo was a great surprise for our empleoyees becasuse it was way easier to use than the previous solution we had, the implementation although it was easy was a litle lenghty to adapt to different countries policies. Has good customer support, several features including different types of leaves and the frequency of use of the platform has increased very well since it was integrated with our other solutions.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

Bamboo took quite some time to migrate from our previous platform.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Handling vacations, permission leaves and wide company communications

"Great platform and exceptional customer service"
What do you like best about BambooHR?

The platform is very user friendly while still offering a lot of features. However, the single determining factor that has made BambooHR such a great product has been the customer support. Due to the number of features, there have been times where I couldn't quite figure out how to make it do what I wanted and all I had to do was pick up the phone and a CSR would walk me through the process. In addition, their FAQ section is actually incrediblly helpful. There is an option to acutally walk through certain processes in a demo format where it moves you click by click through the steps you need to take. Overall, this has been a fantastic tool for our HR department.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

The only main issue we have run into using this program is a lack of ability to direct message. The annoucements feature allows us to push a notification to all employees or specific departments, but for an employee to message a manager or vice versa, they are relocated outside the BambooHR platform to email.

What problems is BambooHR solving and how is that benefiting you?

BambooHR has given our employees a method of clocking in and out each day. Additionally, it tracks all PTO and gives the employees a reliable way to check their available PTO, schedule time off, etc. The new benefits feature is also very helpful when open enrollment comes each year.

It would take too long to list everything, but: Ease of use, Reporting, Hiring, Performance Mgmt, HR Summits, emailing, and signatures.

What do you dislike about BambooHR?

Can't think of anything........I guess that it is mostly for small-medium sized companies.
