Easy to Use HRIS

I love Bamboo! Very happy with it, and excited to see what the future holds.

Pros

The product is very easy to use. The customer support is incredible. The system is aesthetically pleasing. Bamboo listens to feedback and is always updating and releasing new features based on customer feedback.

Cons

Some features are not the most robust. Time tracking and reporting specifically. Bamboo does not have built-in scheduling. The employee notes feature could be more like applicant notes (replies, attachments, email notifications).

Navigating the Pros and Cons of BambooHR: A User's Perspective

In general, I have had a positive experience with BambooHR. Despite its shortcomings, I find that it greatly simplifies HR management for our organization, saving us time and reducing the risk of errors.

Pros

I find BambooHR to be an excellent HR platform with a user-friendly interface. I love how it centralizes and streamlines our HR processes, making it much easier to manage employee data. I also appreciate the efficient onboarding and offboarding features, which have made a significant difference in how we handle new hires and departures.

Cons

I find that the performance management module could use more advanced features to better support employee development and growth.

Integrated in our daily HR operations

Pros

We use BambooHR for several years and it would be impossible to miss it. It is integrated with our performance mgmt tool and ATS, which makes it very efficient to communicate and keep a proper overview.

Cons

Less integrations with EU based tools, since it is an US based tool.

The ATS has been a huge help in the recruitment process

When it comes to personnel data, Bamboo handles everything. The HR department and upper management benefit greatly from this system's increased efficiency. The convenience of having everything in one place, rather than scattered everywhere.

Pros

The HR software is all-encompassing and user-friendly. Administrators and end users alike will appreciate the streamlined UI and pleasant UX they provide. My team has found the platform to be very user-friendly and productive.

Cons

It irritates me because any time I make an update to anything, it needs to be approved first, but I don't think this is something that happens everywhere; rather, I think it's more of a company permissions issue.

Lean and Focused!

Quite impressed coming from Shireburn Indigo. It feels more lightweight and focused on qualitative value as opposed to quantitative breadth, and yet it still appears to be feature rich in its execution.

Pros

It's lean and effective. Quite pleasant to setup personal info, apply for vacation / sick, set goals, update progress, include milestones etc. All the features speak of great effort poured into the design and user experience side. Performance is not lacking and I have no complaints. The Mobile App integration is incredible and extremely straight forward.

Cons

It's not immediately obvious if dark mode is an option, which I would very much like.
