## Reviews

### "Good HRM tool" — 5.0/5

> **Elroy** | *19 January 2022* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Its not the best but it gets the job done. The features and functionality are easy to use and easily integrated into any organization. I love the employee management aspect of the software as I can set goals and monitor them when needed.
> 
> **Cons**: Haven't found any issues with the current version of this software.

### "Love hate relationship" — 4.0/5

> **Michael** | *17 November 2020* | Research | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is an excellent on prem solution to HR and Payroll for a company that wants allot of functionality for a reasonable price.
> 
> **Cons**: Performance and stability.  Very slow on launch to the point that every user gets the loading twice message because the click and click.  Screens can crash if you push them.  I believe this is because there is still foxpro lingering underneath the covers in the screens.
> 
> We are migrating from Abra Suite so it is excellent that it is so similar but the upgrade path is ROUGH..

### "SAGE HRMS PAYROLL/HUMAN RESOURCE modules compared to SAGE ABRA PAYROLL/HUMAN RESOURCE" — 3.0/5

> **Meredith** | *14 May 2020* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love that it does not have a hard close after each quarter and you can rerun reports for any payroll that is in history which means you can go back years.  Love that it has an HR module that is easy to use and did not change much going from Sage ABRA to Sage HRMS but wish the payroll module was more modern and interactive so you can actually see a paycheck instead of doing a calculating process and then pulling a report to see what the paycheck will actually be.  Love being able to have an excel spreadsheet containing bonuses/incentives that can be easily imported/uploaded into the payroll module.
> 
> **Cons**: Hate that HRMS Payroll does not have an interactive paycheck view while processing payroll where you can make a change on an employee's paycheck and see instantly how it changes everything.  An example of this is if an employee wanted to change their 401k pre-tax election/deduction how would it change the taxes and net pay.  It is time card driven then you have to calculate (process) before you can see an employee's possible paycheck when you run a Pre-check payroll register (report driven).  Every time you have to make changes you do the change on their timecard, even to deductions, then calculate pay before you can see the employee's paystub when you run a report (Pre-check Payroll Register Report) so it is report driven.  I would love to see an interactive paycheck in view and see how changes can change the net pay.  I love that it comes with Crystal Reports but to find the information (fields) in the payroll directory/data bases is difficult but on the human resource director/data basis are considerably easier.  Support, that you pay for, does not help you with crystal reports or how to find the field/information to get it onto a crystal report.  Also the standard reports that come with the HRMS program (payroll) are not helpful nor have enough filters/sorts/structure to make them useful so you have to become savvy with Crystal reports to get the information you want in the format you must have it.  Also to do W2 or tax forms are only  process in HRMS payroll to Aatrix.
> 
> It gets the payroll process done and has other modules to greatly help, like attendance and human resources but would like a more modern payroll module.

### "Sage HRMS - Takes effort but worth it." — 4.0/5

> **Barbara** | *8 May 2020* | Paper & Forest Products | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The system has many features within the program itself to store information, provide status and  look-ups.  Set up is extremely important to have done correctly in order for the software to function fully and correctly.
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting features are limited requiring an upgrade to incorporate Crystal Reports to obtain needed information for tax payments and reporting purposes.
> 
> The learning curve was quite steep but since we have been using the software for a while now, we are much more comfortable with it.

### "Simplifies scheduling and is clear and easy to use." — 4.0/5

> **Tim** | *6 February 2025* | Security & Investigations | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Sage HRMS has a fairly clear and easy to use interface and doesn't take long to figure out how to do anything
> 
> **Cons**: It doesn't integrate with any other software, so if you're using more than one program for scheduling, everything has to be put in manually on both.&#10;It also would be nice if there was a way to easily track how overtime has been distributed between employees, but I think I'm nitpicking.
> 
> It's a super useful bit of software that makes scheduling wildly easier. I do wish it would sync with Microsoft Teams, but other than that it's great.
