Manage your day offs easier than never

What do you like best? It's allows me to check my day offs count with one click, there is no need to keep the available days count in another place or write a note. Also I don't need to write an email or use other service to ask for a day off or vacation from my supervisor. I can request day offs without leaving the BambooHR. What do you dislike? I think they have all the features that should have a tool that provides services like they provide. What business problems are you solving ...

Excellent for non mobile users.

What do you like best? It helps greatly with performance reviews as well as goal setting across multiple sites. I like the fact you can blindly select people to review there peers. The functionality and concept of the software works great in a company like this but you need to work on getting the mobile app to reflect and have the same functionality on android iPhone and all OS's.. What do you dislike? The mobile device functionality is not there. There have been several occasions ...

Basic HR tool - not the best out there

What do you like best? Bamboo was the first system we had that stored all our HR type data in one spot. I really like being able to see historical data on my salary. When I was a manager I liked having access to my direct report's information so I could look up their birthdays and remember to celebrate them! What do you dislike? There isn't a lot of customizability on the admin side of things. It would be nice to run reports for information I need in my current role, but I have to rely ...

Great, usable product

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? It's easy to use, very intuitive, has a ton of functionality and allows you a fair degree of customization. What aspects are problematic or could work better? There are some minor customizations that might be nice to have, and a few of the processes are less than optimized (mostly has to do with allowing user to add options to some combo lists. But the BambooHR team has been quite responsive so far, and I have seen some new ...

They won me over!

What do you like best? We love the simple layout and ability to allow our staff access to their most essential information via the employee self-serve access. We have been able to go paperless in our onboarding process and have simplified many forms with the use of digital signature. After debating over more robust multi-tiered systems, BambooHR won us over with their simplicity and specializing in the most important areas of an HRIS. What do you dislike? Some recent software upgrades ...

Employee database made simple.

What do you like best? Super easy to use and navigate. Great to have a portal to get employee information as well. Not overly expensive or robust, so perfect for smaller teams. Keeps track of time off so you have up-to-date information on employee leave/sick time/vacation days. What do you dislike? It would be great to have other ways to streamline all of HR needs (payroll, benefits, etc. But other than that, it really is straight forward. What business problems are you solving with ...
