Everything you need to know about your colleagues

What do you like best? You can create a "Who's Out" calendar, which can plugin directly to your Google Calendar, to show you who is taking time off, doing home office, etc. We used to have to create events manually and copy to multiple calendars. This is so much easier. What do you dislike? There are a lot of options for settings for the admin, which can sometimes make it difficult to have an overview of everything you need. But as long as you have easy communication with your ...

A versatile HRMS

What do you like best? BamboHR has an intuitive and user-friendly interface. They have done an excellent work on this, to ensure their applicant monitoring scheme is able to employ and hold skilled and competent staff. When it comes to track the ill days or holidays, it makes it simple and perfectly reasonable, as the BambooHR setup for open registration and medical document search is very simple. What do you dislike? I discovered that the implementation is not very straightforward ...

Bamboo is great

What do you like best? Bamboo has a very simple user interface and it allows employees to complete self service changes. The directory is functional and files are secure. What do you dislike? It doesn't seem to have great integration with other HR type systems. Tasks should be more detailed and with more functionality. Signature forms is not as simple as it seems, better to go through Adobe and upload. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you ...

User Friendly HR Program

What do you like best? I love that Bamboo HR integrates with Greenhouse (our preferred ATS). It allows us to export new hires easily and efficiently. I also love the "Time Off" feature. It allows you to calculate the amount of time off you will have at a given point in time. Perfect for planning vacations! What do you dislike? occasionally our bamboo/greenhouse integration doesn't work and we have to go through and reboot the API key. This has caused us some major issues in the ...

BambooHR Review

What do you like best? BambooHR is a great solution for our company. I use it every day at work. There are so many things that you are able to do through this platform. I typically use it most for requesting days off of work and looking up departments of co-workers. I also have a lot of "off-boarding" tasks that are assigned to me through bamboo. What do you dislike? I haven't always enjoyed the editing capabilities bamboo offers for certain sections. The ability to get things ...
