    Chose Brightmine
    I didn't have a say in what was offered. I prefer Bloomberg for some things (if I still had access) and Brightmine for others. I have access to Practical Law, but I don't use it. I much prefer Brightmine.

    Bloomberg
    It's best suited for in-house counsel that wishes to stay on top of recent case law and labor decisions. It's also great for labor & employment attorneys working at firms to have a high level overview of key issues. The chart builder and Daily Labor Report are the best resources for in-house counsel. The content is easy to flip to in-house client teams and department heads along with individual analysis and suggested action items.

    Brightmine is well suited for UK employment law guidance, policy interpretation, and complex employee relations scenarios requiring quick, reliable insight. It is less appropriate for country specific advice outside the UK or for highly bespoke legal matters that require formal external legal counsel. In these cases you would still require external legal counsel.

    • Keep me informed of regulatory changes
    • Has great matrices on a per state basis for multiple regulatory topics, such as payment of final wages, etc.
    • Provides resources such as labor law posters for updating
    • Has a great handbook tool for creating and updating handbooks with well written policies that are easy to edit and customize.

    Cons

    • Could offer more practical advice and answers to common questions similar to SHRM
    • Discussions and summaries of recent legislation
    • Easier to search case law function

    • Have a 50 state chart that lists all final pay requirements for a deceased employee.
    • Policy requirements that are 100% mandatory for the handbook. This could be adjusted to make it crystal clear what is really needed and what an employer may want to add.
    • Chat support. I don't think this feature has ever worked on the site.

    Without realising it we use Brightmine so often and it is so beneficial as our daily roles are onerous. By having a tool there that covers such a wide variety of products we can rest assured we know if we need something we can find it on there easily. With no hassle.

    The website is so easy to use and navigate through. I check this website weekly on the states I am responsible for, and it is so well organized to quickly find those states. I also use this to check up on information with policies and laws I run into and all the information is quick and easy to find.

    Everything loads quickly and is exactly where I need it to be. I like how the sidebar breaks down different sections of policies for each state to help me find what I am looking for or gives suggestions or documents to review that may also be helpful

    The people on the call training us were very friendly and knowledgeable! They helped me learn of new tabs for finding templates to create new trainings to update departments on policies and procedures. It also has great excel sheets so I can see side by side differences between states regarding different laws and compensation changes.

    I didnt implement but just wanted to say the person providing the training was brilliant and guided us through each page so we knew how to navigate, also allowed us to ask a lot of questions if we needed to which was helpful. So we could go away with confidence to use it

    HR Inform's documents are written a little better but there is less choice, they are similar in pricing however you can get a discount is you are a CIPD member which is attractive. It would be good if Brightmine can partner with the HR Ninjas very large network and give discounts to members, this would definitely drive subscriptions up for Brightmine and increase their presence.

    • Brightmine reduces the time it would take me to research certain items on my own. As a consultant, this increases my capacity, allowing me to take on additional clients and increase my revenue.
    • Using Brightmine saves me from needing to hire someone to help me perform research or to help me stay up-to-date on changing laws. Although I pay for the service, it is at least 80% less than an employee would cost.
