Considered Both Products
BambooHR®
Chose BambooHR®
I chose BambooHR because it works best for our company size. Its easy to navigate the system and easy to explain or show others how to use it and that is what I like about it. Rippling is similar in that everything is connected, but I like the affordability of BambooHR and how …
Chose BambooHR®
Cornerstone was the worst thing I ever used. It did performance evaluations and hiring but it was clunky and very hard to use as admins. I had to learn some HTML to use parts of it and worst experience of my life. Bamboo I would recommend anytime over that.
Chose BambooHR®
Bamboo is clear of SageHR
Less clunky, more efficient, easier to use
Chose BambooHR®
Very similar but easier to navigate. Pay chex also had our 401k benefits so that was really nice to see. Now, I have to navigate to a different website to view which makes it confusing. Overall though, I prefer BambooHR® over Pay Chex. As mentioned, what I use it for makes it …
Chose BambooHR®
I have never used any other BambooHR products that I am aware of at this time.
Chose BambooHR®
we haven't used any other products before
Chose BambooHR®
We've been using BambooHR for many years now, so I don't really remember what PeopleForce was like. But what I know for sure is that BambooHR is a much more refined product and provides more capabilities than PF overall.
Chose BambooHR®
I've used a few different tools for payroll and benefits. I used Rippling a while ago. I remember it was also pretty easy to use. Paylocity was also pretty easy to use, as far as I remember. Since I'm not the HR rep evaluating the tools for the benefits side, I don't have much …
Chose BambooHR®
BambooHR was selected for being user friendly. This is critical as our workforce is not the most tech savvy. It needs to be easy to use.
Chose BambooHR®
It's better in some ways, but it lacks information on pay and retirement. Two different platforms, though.
Chose BambooHR®
These are the three that come to mind, and we use each program for different things. We stick to HR driven areas for Bamboo, as we haven't shifted to it for payroll or project management. I do find Bamboo to be the most user-friendly, with the smallest learning curve of all …
Chose BambooHR®
Bamboo is much nicer with its UI and much simpler to follow
Chose BambooHR®
As a company we are consolidating and streamling infrastrucure. Bamboo has been with us since the beginning and appears to growing with us.
Chose BambooHR®
BambooHR felt like the better fit for our small to medium size company (100 employees around the world)
Chose BambooHR®
I liked using Paychex Flex. I think my company chose BambooHR for its competitive pricing.
Chose BambooHR®
Mavenlink is a much more expensive tool, but allowed a greater visibility into time tracking against projects and resource allocation all in one place.
Chose BambooHR®
In the past, I've used Paycor to handle all HR and pay info and things. Paycor was fine, but it felt clunkier and more like a chore to use. Logging into BambooHR is quicker and easier, and the user experience is more friendly. Things are easier to get to, and more info is …
Chose BambooHR®
I have used salesforce on several different occasions ranging from customer service to client management. This is a different situational occurrence however I will say that Bamboo is the much stronger system. The UI is much more pleasant and easy to navigate, and so far it …
Chose BambooHR®
better and more intuitive UI, Bamboo is better
Chose BambooHR®
BambooHR® isnt as robust as Rippling but for smaller companies it really fits the bill
Dice.com
Chose Dice.com
Mostly we prefer Dice.com in our organization for IT related sourcing, where it perform well in job posting review the resume and tracking the resume. the filter process which available in this portal is more accessible that all other portal.
Chose Dice.com
As I said, Dice.com is the best sourcing tools while compared to other job sourcing platform. It has more up to date features and still withstand in the market, while others are mostly outdated. It is suitable for IT, Non-IT and all kind of requirements.
Chose Dice.com
compare other portal in Dice.com we can filter option is there, it will be very useful to reduce the heavy work time. and Dice.com posting is the best way to get the profile easily. we can see the lots of resume in single page but we can't see it in other portal.
Chose Dice.com
we majorly use Dice.com due to its optimization and regular update for various filter. it has major filter process which no other portal has like specific location , skillsets, visa status, tax term and resume as per latest update
Chose Dice.com
Even though I have an access to all the portals to source the profiles, My priority will be Dice.com, as I can get the result much faster than other portals

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
For companies with a "complex" PTO policy, it's one of the easier solutions to use I have seen. By complexity, I mean having different reasons for your time off and different amounts of time you can request on that end. If you need simple file sharing, it will work as well. For people who require more robust training material, it might not be the best fit.

Pros
  • Ease of use for established staff and admins, all the way down to brand new hires.
  • Integrations, especially for posting and managing jobs during the hiring process.
  • Making regularly occurring things like meetings and assessments easy to customize and to action easily.
  • Being able to assign out tasks for onboarding and offboarding.

  • Filter
  • Day to Day update resume
  • Lots of profile can view in single page
Read full review
Cons
  • The biggest issue is on performance assessments. We are not able to customize the reminder dates so the automated reminder dates shown to people and on the email reminders is often misaligned with our actual internal deadlines. This causes a lot of confusion each review cycle.
  • Also on performance management, there is no way to push feedback to a supervisor for their direct report. The only way is if the manager requests the feedback from you. This limits the opportunity for people to give real time feedback throughout the half.
  • I wish we had a way to track notes from employee 1:1s in BambooHR® so when we do our performance reviews we can track. That may be a module we didn't purchase but it would facilitate more continuous and comprehensive evaluation of people at review time.

There's nothing wrong with this platform. I would recommend it to any business starting with more than 10 employees. I will continue to use the program for as long as I need to, hoping they continue being tremendous and finding other ways to incorporate more technology.

Usability
It is pretty intuitive and easy to use for most functions! This is helped by the clean and simple interface. The drop down filters and prompts are definitely strong points, and could be easily enhanced with more AI/automation features built in in future to make it even more efficient. I also like the playful icons, making it less dull as a HR tool :)

Reliability and Availability
Yes, there is a huge team in the back of the online platform or it looks like it because I have never been left without an answer when I have a question or waiting from a response on my chat .... There must be a huge team, this is so great and I always seem to have someone that is very knowledgeable too. So many times in the past I had to leave with customer service that would connect you with someone else because of the expertise, here everyone seems to be some kind of an expert in the HR function.

Performance
I love BambooHR. Reports are easy to run and download and it usually covers any types of requests I get from the management team. You get excel or .csv downloads/reports and it is fast and simple, not too crowded so it is easy to read through. We don't integrate the tool yet but again, soon we will. we just did not had the time to utilize it yet but that's the plan.

Support Rating
Support has always been excellent. I was skeptical about not having a dedicated account manager at first, but my concerns were quickly eased. I love the different options for communication. Being able to chat, send emails or call a representative are great so that my workflow isn't disrupted by having to complete a call. I have never had an issue reaching anyone and the email follow up is great!

Online Training
As far as I can recall, everything went well with doing it online and got questions answered. Was thankful to work with a dummy file to get used to some practices prior to getting our own domain within bamboo to then place our personnel information in the system, this helped a lot!

Implementation Rating
We implemented bambooHR in Fall, 2023 then implemented Payroll 1/1/24. A vital piece of information was not known or missed in that we are exempt from State Unemployment Tax and have a Reimbursement Set-up, so bambooHR did not send Payroll Reports to the State. Those reports need to be sent regardless if we are exempt or not.

There is so much you can do with this platform, it is incredible and so welcoming. We don't utilize it 100% yet just because we are growing and the HR team has not been able to concentrate on other areas offered to us but but we will soon. Which is also why we got the product, specifically because what BambooHR can do to help us meet our growing business needs.
