Shows history of anything you need and creates quick graphs in real-time. > > **Cons**: Not very easy to use at the beginning, lots of features that we do not use regularly. Need to keep simple. > > Integrated with other HCM software, worked on the talent engagement, outcome was satisfying. ----- ### "Great software for HR and employees" — 4.0/5 > **Mac** | *8 November 2023* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I really like the functionality for signing up for courses/lessons that we have to do as a company. It's super easy for me to register for classes on Criterion, and it syncs to my calendar. I also really like the time management aspect of it, where I can see how many PTO day's I have left in a year. > > **Cons**: I feel as though the UI is a bit dated - it looks a bit old, but that could be something we can change on our end. > > Overall, it is a great platform for managing our time-off and payroll. I love that I can see how much of my pay is going towards taxes, and all the different breakouts. I would recommend it to companies looking for HR platforms. ----- ### "Buyer Beware\!" — 2.0/5 > **Linda** | *8 February 2021* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to see an employee's history. The time clock functionality is definitely a plus. Processing payrolls are streamlined with minimal data input. The re-hiring feature is very beneficial. > > **Cons**: There is a rounding issue with reports. The actual amount paid to employees' do not match reports. Very difficult to get issues resolved timely, if ever resolved. The system does not have the capability to create files to upload for state W-2 reporting (even though we were told that would not be a problem before purchasing). Many times it has taken up to 45 minutes to log into the system. It is difficult to get reports that meet certain needs for reporting benefits. End up using several reports to consolidate into one for the required reporting information. Issues with employees that live is one state and work in another state. ----- ### "Criterion for nation-wide construction company" — 4.0/5 > **Chelsey** | *8 December 2021* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use and to be trained on. Everything filters into the appropriate to eliminate double entry > > **Cons**: Employee history could include more information for companies who have employees who come and go multiple times. > > We eliminated double entry, have saved money and storage on saving personnel files and are able to customize access to many people to use the system as it works best for them while maintaining security. ----- ### "My experience with criterion" — 4.0/5 > **Alekhya** | *2 March 2023* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Minimum data input with faster payroll processing.It is very faster to look for employees information. Great utility tools for minimum data input. The double entry problem is also eliminated > > **Cons**: There is a slight lag due to heavy load and thereby performs slow ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/3071/perfecthcm?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/3071/perfecthcm) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
