Bamboo Review

What do you like best? I like bamboo because we are able to easily request time off to our managers. It is an easy transparent place for our managers to check our vacation time off.

We are able to easily request time off to our managers and it keeps employees time off transparent to the managers.

Nice HR Portal & ATS

What do you like best? This is our first HRIS, so it's hard to compare to anything, but it provides employees with a nice portal to look up org structure, individual HR/beneftis information, etc. and it functions as our ATS, consolidating resumes from many sources into 1 location and providing history on candidates. What do you dislike? I wish BambooHR could integrate with ADP and our time entry system for the tracking of vacation used. What problems are you solving with the ...

User friendly, simple and easy to navigate designs

What do you like best? It's got guided features for first-time users What do you dislike? I haven't quite used BambooHR long enough to find dislikes but it can probably make better use of being multi-platform site by adding more features. Recommendations to others considering the product: Definitely a great structure for small to medium scale companies. I think it can have more features in the future What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you ...

BambooHR has the best functionality for labor management!

The BambooHR team is accessible every step of the way

What do you like best? I managed a team of 30 employees and researched multiple HR options. I ultimately chose BambooHR because it had a cleanly-designed, logical interface. The sign-up/on-boarding process seemed intuitive. That proved to be the case once I purchased the software. But where they really shined was after the initial sale. Over the course of several weeks, I had a great partner at BambooHR who took the time to learn about my business and educate me on how best to ...
