Spotsaas Editor’s POV

BrightHR is built on a support model where onboarding and troubleshooting rely heavily on direct staff interaction. Training sessions cover core features like BrightSafe and Blip, but the platform's learning curve depends on access to that support team—staff like Natasha, Holly, Erica, Joy, and Jason handle most issue resolution. Before shortlisting, verify that ...Read more

Great introductory tour

We've just had our introductory tour of both BrightHR and BrightSafe with Natasha and found it very helpful. She answered all our questions easily and left us feeling very confident about using the system.

Chloe Jones has really helped unpick one of the holiday balance queries today. Thoughtful and methodical and helped me see what I couldn't! All round super service again from Bright HR.

Been using Bright HR for just over a year. There are so many features and benefits available to help businesses. Kevin has recently taken over our account as our Account Manager and he is so helpful and supportive. I feel that the platform will have more features implemented and we are delighted to be part of the growth. Thank you Danielle at Five Star Catering.

I cannot tell you how good the team at BrightHR is, what a difference they’ve made to our business, how easy they are to work with and what value we get from them. When we signed on I was in two minds about whether we needed them, or if we were paying for another supplier we wouldn’t use. Fast forward to today, they are genuinely my favourite supplier, their knowledge and expertise are superb and vital to the success of our business, and their ‘can do’ attitude and approach to each new ...

We have been using Bright HR for a few years now and the software for logging in, recording holiday, training modules, template contracts etc is all great, brilliant in fact, and everything we'd need. However, the truly fantastic thing is the legal helpline and the invaluable advice and support you can get. As a small business owner, it's impossible to know everything, and unrealistic to employ specialists in each area. The support service within Bright is first class and I simply can't ...

We have recently joined Bright HR and Jason called to give an outline about the services now we are signed up. We are a busy small business and he was polite, efficient and profesional. Look forward to working with Jason and other members of the Bright HT team.

Ben was very helpful and extremely bright and cheerful as he sorted out the problem. He gave really good advice and didn't hurry me in anyway when I was asking questions.

Ben Spencer was excellent!

I hadn't been impressed with the email support I had received for a previous query regarding holiday calculations for part time staff. However Ben Spencer telephoned me regarding another issue I had raised, and once he had resolved that one he proceeded to help with my initial query and was brilliant. He went through the guidance step by step and waited on the phone whilst I carried out the steps. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ben. He was quite brilliant.
