No matter what HR looks like at your company, we have the perfect plan for you!
Our pricing is based off the number of hires in a given contract year. All contracts are annual but can be billed on a monthly basis.
I believe BambooHR is well suited for companies that like a simple, easy-to-use platform. As a first-time HRIS user, it has been very easy to implement and utilize. We got great support for implementation, but we have at times felt a little on our own when we've had small issues we've asked for help on. Overall, we are thrilled with the addition of BambooHR to our company tools.
Workbright is well suited because of the following reasons: 1. Data transmission between browser and application is highly encrypted 2. Bank grade data encryption for maximum security 3. Data is backed up at various locations 4. Database security is maintained to the highest standards with Engineers 5. Automated reminders and user correction error flow system
Onboarding Paperwork - It would be great if there was only one website we had to log into. For example, I have to log into one to send paperwork, and then log into another domain to check the paperwork sent.
Note Timeline - Anytime any application is touched, viewed, etc. a note is made. We also utilize the note feature to communicate about each applicant. However, it gets quite messy when their are over 40 notes and you are not able to sort or organize them.
Attachments - Can't attach items in notes, would be nice feature for attaching images, snippets, pdfs, etc.
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.
Navigating through the different sections is straightforward once you understand the platform's overall layout. Its intuitive design ensures easy access to various features, making it user-friendly for all employees. This simplicity enhances efficiency in daily operations, allowing users to quickly find the information they need. Overall, the platform's straightforward navigation supports a seamless user experience, facilitating effective use across the organization.
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.
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.
BambooHR support has been a pleasant surprise. I expected with a larger payroll/HR provider for the support to be a sticking point. BambooHR's support has been quite easy to contact and, in almost every case, very quick to respond with a solution to the issue we are facing.
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!
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.
BambooHR is much better. I often found TriNet had limited info and tools. We did not bother using it for timesheets or time off requests because it was just too annoying. It was also annoying to navigate. Many links to resources took you off the website. Bamboo includes everything within the platform and makes it easy.
WorkBright was selected as the primary HR software within our company. One of the main reasons it was selected is the intuitive user interface and dashboard. Additionally, the software had excellent features for the cost such as custom reporting, notifications, enhanced security, and training. WorkBright offered many features that other HR software in the same price range did not.
Since my organization has dropped with employees, I always find ways to reduce costs. I thought there would be a cheaper option, but I was glad that my package included a lot for the price, and downgrading would cost more. The rep could have let me downgraded and taken me to a higher package. I am thankful that didn't happen.
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.
Gave more time back to HR, Directors, and Managers by providing options for easy reports and a place to have all the information.
PTO! This has given so much time back to accounting as they no longer have to manually calculate PTO and it's also allowed our team to feel more comfortable to take time off by having an official way to ask off and see what their balances are.
Onboarding and offboarding: this has helped HR with the many many tasks of helping team members come onboard as well as when they leave a company.
Professionalism: the ability to create forms and has stepped up our game for new hires and even tracking things we have needed our team to fill out!
